  • Patent number: 12147090
    Abstract: Self-locking eyeglass system, comprising at least one locking element and at least one frame element, wherein the frame element additionally comprises a connection element, which is intended for connecting with a locking element, and wherein the frame element is non-interrupted in its external circumference, and wherein the connection element is provided on the inner side, wherein the self-locking eyeglass system additionally comprises two hinge elements, which each comprises an adapter element, which matches a recess in the frame element, wherein each hinge element has a connection element, which coincides with the frame element's connection element, when the hinge elements are mounted in the at least one frame element's recess, and wherein each hinge element is secured to the at least one frame element by a locking element, whereby a convenient, flexible and uncomplicated way to assemble, separate, replace and service a self-locking eyeglass system is achieved.

  • Publication number: 20240201516
    Abstract: A spectacle rod is provided, including a plate-shaped metal rod and a friction element located at an ear bend. In order to avoid inadvertent removal of the friction element from the metal rod, a protrusion and the recess are formed. The protrusion and recess include a first transverse protrusion at the outermost second end of the spectacle rod. This transverse protrusion, together with the spectacle rod, forms an outwardly open recess. This recess has a smaller cross-section at the opening than at a central part. Thereby, elastic compliant material from the friction element will be received in the recess. The elastic material will be compressed so that a clamping effect occurs, contributing to a retention which prevents accidental separation of the friction element and the metal rod.

  • Patent number: 11143883
    Abstract: Spectacles with interchangeable eyeglass lenses (2), where the spectacles comprise a spectacles frame (1) and eyeglass lenses (2), where the eyeglass lenses comprise a mount (3) which is secured to an outer edge of the eyeglass lenses, and where at least one of the mount and the spectacles frame comprises a coupling element (8), which can couple together the mount (3) and the spectacles frame (1), thereby producing a spectacles frame in which the eyeglass lenses can be replaced as desired. Furthermore, the mount or the spectacles frame comprises an oblong recess (5) designed to receive a partial section (7) of the spectacles frame or a bulge on the mount. Said spectacles are suitable for use at work, bicycling in blustery weather, or skiing in harsh sunlight.
