  • Publication number: 20090305605
    Abstract: An eye includes a socket, an eyeball, an eyelid and at least two electromagnetic units. The socket defines a spherical bay. The eyeball is received in the spherical bay. One end of the eyelid has an eyelash, the other end of the eyelid has a magnetic element corresponding to the eyelash. The at least two electromagnetic units are disposed on different positions of an upper side of the socket. In this case, the eyelid is movably arranged between the socket and the at least two electromagnetic units.

  • Patent number: 7198539
    Abstract: An improved artificial eye for use in dolls, stuffed animals, other toys, and the like, and for use as a prosthetic eye for human beings. The improved artificial eye consists of a sclera, a lens, and a lamina. The lens can be made of any of a variety of materials such as natural or synthetic gemstones or gemstone simulations. The lens can be used to magnify the iris and pupil images. The lamina provides images of the iris and pupil. The lamina can be a thin layer imprinted with the image of the iris and pupil and is attached to the lens such as by lamination or adhesive. Alternatively, the lamina can comprise colored glass or ceramic and is sintered onto the lens. In a second configuration, the eye additionally comprises an insert layer, which can be glass, between the lens and the lamina.

  • Patent number: 6029674
    Abstract: A device for attaching a false eyelash with an original adhesive thereon to an eyelid when the original adhesive thereon has lost its adhesion. The device includes a core and an adhesive coating that surrounds the core so as to form an attaching element. The adhesive coating attaches the core along the false eyelash and also allows the false eyelash to then be attached to the eyelid. The device further includes, a primary substrate, a secondary substrate disposed on the primary substrate and has a plurality of the attaching elements spaced longitudinally therealong and held releasibly thereon by the adhesive coating of each attaching element, a plurality of release sheet covers, each of which covers and protects an associated attaching element, prior to use, and is held releasibly thereon by the adhesive coating of the associated attaching element, and at least one pair of false eyelashes disposed on the primary substrate.

  • Patent number: 5547529
    Abstract: The invention is a false eyelash system, for producing unknotted clusters of false eyelashes from long fibers. A plurality of long fibers are knotted around a main string with a preliminary knot. The long fibers are trimmed a distance away from the main string that corresponds to a desired eyelash length. Cement is applied to the preliminary knot and discernible distance therefrom to form a cement clot. The preliminary knot is removed by cutting through the cement clot to form unknotted clusters of false eyelashes.

  • Patent number: 4705488
    Abstract: The eye assembly includes two eyeball units, a socket unit for each eyeball unit and a holder unit that grips the shanks of the two socket units. The eyeball unit in each instance includes a lens having a rib extending peripherally therearound and printed artwork on its somewhat curved rearwardly facing surface providing a pupil and iris, the iris having outwardly diverging lines thereon. The lens has a curved forwardly facing surface so that a simulated eye movement is provided as a result of the refraction and magnification that occur where there is relative movement between the child and doll having the eye assembly incorporated therein. Each of the socket units includes a rearwardly projecting shank and the holder unit includes a plurality of resilient fingers that engage one of several annular ribs formed on the shank of each socket unit.

  • Patent number: 4629442
    Abstract: A plastic eye having an appearance closely resembling a glass-blown eye is formed of two generally spherical halves, secured together by solvent or cement at confronting flanges. The spherical halves are formed of clear glass or plastic and the front half is a hollow molding having an internal planar surface. The various eye components are pad printed on the planar surface and then the interior of the shell is given a white coating. Slots can be provided in the front spherical shell wherein an artificial eyelash may be received. A forward central projection on the front half better simulates the cornea of a real eye.
