  • Publication number: 20150128380
    Abstract: A spring hinge for spectacles is described having a hinge part (2) forming a bearing fork (1) for a hinge axis (3), having a guide head (6), which is provided between the two fork legs (8) of the bearing fork (1) and is fastenable on a spectacle part (7), for the hinge part (2), and having a coiled spring (13) between the guide head (6) and the hinge part (2), which is displaceable in relation to the guide head (6), on the side of the guide head (6) facing away from the hinge axis (3). To provide simple design conditions, it is proposed that the section of the hinge part (2) accommodating the coiled spring (13) be implemented as a hinge housing (11), and the guide head (6) comprise a middle part (9), which penetrates the bearing fork (1) of the hinge part (2) between the two fork legs (8) and forms a pivot axis for the hinge housing (11), having lateral guide flanges (10) which encompass the fork legs (8) on both sides.

  • Patent number: 8951042
    Abstract: The invention relates to a dental prosthesis, comprising an implant body (1) and an abutment (2) that can be inserted into a receptacle of the implant body (1), said abutment (2) forming a passage opening (4) for accommodating a cap screw (3) that engages in an internal thread (5) of the implant body (1), which screw is supported by means of a conical cap part (7) of the cap screw (3) on a conical shoulder (8) of the abutment (2). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the conical cap part (7) has at least two consecutive conical sections (9, 10) in the axial direction, which conical sections have an opening angle that differs from the opening angle of the conical shoulder (8), and when the one conical section (9) contacts the conical shoulder (8) without pressure the other conical section (10) engages in the shoulder cone (11) with play.

  • Patent number: 8533913
    Abstract: A spring hinge for spectacles is described, comprising two hinge parts (1, 2) which are connected with each other by a hinge axis (3), of which one forms a bearing bracket (4) for the other hinge part (2) which is displaceably guided in a housing (7) with the help of a sliding element (6), and comprising a coiled spring (14) which rests on a web (8) of the sliding element (6) on the one hand and on an abutment (13) fixed to the housing on the other hand, which abutment is inserted into the housing (7) through a through opening (16) in the hinge part (2) with the sliding element (6) coaxially to the coiled spring (14). In order to achieve a short overall length it is proposed that the abutment (13) comprises a sleeve (15) accommodating the hinge-side end of the coiled spring (14), which sleeve protrudes beyond the housing (7) into the region of the hinge axis (3).

  • Publication number: 20080244865
    Abstract: A spring hinge for spectacles is described having two hinge parts (4, 5) connected to one another in an articulated manner by a hinge axis (7), of which one hinge part (4) is mounted in a hinge housing (1) so it is displaceable against a retracting spring force and the other hinge part (5), which is supported on the hinge housing (1) via a centering, forms at least one stop face (8, 9) working together with the front side of the hinge housing (1) in a stretched position of the hinge parts (4, 5). To achieve guiding of the spectacle earpiece largely without play, it is suggested that the centering provided between the stop face (8, 9) of the one hinge part (5) and the front side of the hinge housing (1) comprise at least one centering groove (10) running around the circumference of the hinge axis (7) and a centering projection (11) engaging in this centering groove (10) at least in the stretched position of the hinge parts (4, 5).
