Abstract: An elastic hinge member (10) for spectacles rims, includes a guiding area (22), a slide (30) having a guided part (32) cooperating with the guiding area (22) and a knuckle (31) and a return spring (40).

Abstract: An elastic hinge for spectacle frame comprises: a endpiece comprising two parallel flanges holding a hinge axis, a case comprising a longitudinal housing comprising a guiding area, a slide arranged in the housing, comprising a salient part spreading outside the housing and maintained in sandwich between both flanges by the hinge axis and a guided part interacting with the guiding area, and elastic means for returning the slide to a position retracted towards the interior of the housing, at least a prominence not performing the guiding of the slide and spreading out from the case to insert between both flanges, in order to ensure a direct mechanical coupling between the case and the endpiece.

Abstract: The invention relates to an elastic hinge element (60) for a spectacle frame, comprising a body (10) consisting of a housing (11) comprising a guiding area (12) and at least one cavity comprising a retaining partition, a slide (20) fitted in the housing and comprising a guided part (22), a center part and a rod, a spring (40) for returning the slide to a rest position, mounted around the rod, and a bushing (30) forming a front stop for the spring. According to the invention, the cavity comprising the retaining partition is located in the guiding area (12) and opens out therein, and the guided part (22) of the slide comprises a recess into which an elastic tab (32) of the slide extends. Advantage: creation of a short-length hinge element.

Abstract: An elastic hinge (40), in particular for spectacle frames, has first and second hinge elements (50, 60) rotatably mounted around a pivot (45), a cam profile (53) integral with the first hinge element, a bearing piece (65) movably mounted in the second hinge element along an elastic translation axis. The bearing piece has a first contact area co-operating with the cam profile to give the hinge at least one stable position, and provides a lock for the hinge when a position of excessive opening is reached. The lock includes a protrusion (53-4) of the cam profile arranged for co-operating with a second contact area (65-2) of the bearing piece by exerting, essentially on the bearing piece, a force substantially perpendicular to the translation axis thereof.
