  • Patent number: 7156106
    Abstract: This invention discloses an inexpensive, foldable, decorative hair band, which can be worn like sunglasses, pushed up above the wearer's forehead, comprising two sunglasses temple earpieces attached by folding sunglasses hinges to the opposite ends of a slightly outwardly bowed bridging strip section, that fits across the wearer's forehead, and a detachable decorative plate, instead of lenses, which fits onto and over this bridging strip, and which has a design on its outer surface.

  • Publication number: 20050194019
    Abstract: This invention discloses an inexpensive foldable decorative hair band, which can be worn like sunglasses, pushed up above the forehead, comprising two sunglasses temple earpieces attached by folding sunglasses hinges to the opposite ends of a slightly outwardly bowed bridging strip section that fits across the wearer's forehead, and a decorative plate, which fits onto and over this bridging strip, and which has a design on its outer surface. The bridging strip section is provided with an indented channel on each of its lateral spanning edges, giving it the appearance of a flattened train rail. The decorative plate is formed into partly open sleeve channel by having its parallel lateral edge sections bent under its bottom surface, thus having the cross section of a flattened letter ā€œCā€. These inward directed edges engage the channels on the bridging strip when the decorative plate is slid over this bridging strip forming a snug connection between these two sections.
