Patent number: 12645099Abstract: A double-sided composite spectacle lens and an inject mold therefor are provided. One surface of the spectacle lens is an aspherical surface, and the other surface is a designed aspherical surface used to inhibit astigmatism, and a spectacle lens formed by combining the two surfaces has two areas with different functions: optimizing optical performance, and thinning for aesthetics. By controlling the reduction of diopter and optimizing astigmatism on one surface, and inversely offsetting astigmatism on the other surface, the degree of astigmatism of the spectacle lens formed by combining the two surfaces is significantly lower than a diopter variation, and the degree of oblique astigmatism is significantly reduced. The aesthetic thinning effects of reducing the edge or center thickness of the double-sided composite spectacle lens are significantly enhanced by accelerating reduction of the diopter on one surface and changing from reducing to increasing the diopter on the other surface.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2024Date of Patent: June 2, 2026Assignee: SUZHOU MASON OPTICAL CO., LTD.Inventors: Haomo Yu, Xiaoyi Chen, Tao Feng, De Li

Patent number: 12637008Abstract: A display device and a display system are provided with an anti-glare layer (AG layer) between a liquid crystal display on which to display a video and an optical device that is disposed at a position through which image light emitted from the liquid crystal display passes, has a reflective polarizing plate, and is capable of controlling reflectance/transmittance of incident light. Since light reflected by a color filter of the liquid crystal display is out of phase due to scattering in the AG layer, the degree of interference is reduced, leading to reduction in the appearance of an iridescent image due to interference light. In addition, since external light scattered or diffused by the AG layer and the reflected light of the external light do not have a polarization characteristic, and thus, most of a component thereof toward the outside is reflected by the reflective polarizing plate, which reduces a situation in which a region around a bright reflected image appears cloudy.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2022Date of Patent: May 26, 2026Assignee: ALPS ALPINE CO., LTD.Inventor: Keita Taniguchi
