  • Publication number: 20240085721
    Abstract: The eyeglasses includes a glasses frame and two temples. The glasses frame has two opposite ends. Each of the two temples has a front end connected pivotally to a respective one of the two opposite ends of the glasses frame. Each of the two temples have a section that is flexible so that, by applying lateral forces to the two temples, the temples are convertible between an outwardly curved state where rear ends of the two temples are spaced apart from each other at a first distance, and an inwardly curved state where the rear ends of the two temples are spaced apart from each other at a second distance that is smaller than the first distance.

  • Patent number: 11163179
    Abstract: A temple unit for an eyewear includes two temples each including pivotally connected front and rear segments. The front and rear segments respectively include adjacent rear and front ends. One of the front and rear ends is formed with a protruding portion, and the other one of the front and rear ends is formed with a recess portion. The protruding portion has at least three non-coplanar first flat surfaces defining two convex corner sections. Any two adjacent ones of the first flat surfaces are connected to each other to define one of the convex corner sections. The recess portion has at least two non-coplanar second flat surfaces connected to each other to define a concave corner section engaging a selected one of the convex corner sections so as to position the rear segment relative to the front segment.

    Abstract: A number of eyeglass frames with resilient structures and shields that have wide applicability are described. In one embodiment, an auxiliary frame has a resilient structure at its bridge area, and non-uniform shields. The shields have openings at their sides and retaining mechanisms. Due to its resilient nature, the auxiliary frame is adaptable to after-market sales for primary frames. In yet another embodiment, a primary frame has a resilient structure at its bridge area and has shields. Such a primary frame again allows it to be comfortably fitted to people whose heads are of different sizes and shapes.

  • Patent number: 6577063
    Abstract: The present PDP includes a rear plate, a plurality of barrier ribs on the rear plate, and a front plate in parallel with the rear plate. The front plate includes a transparent dielectric layer, a plurality of joint notches on the transparent dielectric layer, and a protective layer on the transparent dielectric layer that covers the joint notches. The position of each of the joint notches is aligned with the position of one corresponding barrier rib, and each joint notch has a filler to affix within the joint notch corresponding the barrier rib. When the front plate is mounted onto the rear plate, the top of each of the barrier ribs of the rear plate is pushed through the protective layer and is embedded in the corresponding joint notch of the front plate. The filler within each of the joint notches fills the gap between the top of the barrier rib embedded in the joint notch and the joint notch so that the front plate is tightly fixed to the rear plate.
