  • Patent number: 5521911
    Abstract: An eyeglass display system utilizes a combination of an eyeglass display member and an eyeglass contacting member. The eyeglass contacting member has an encircling portion adapted to encircle at least a part of the frame of the eyeglasses, and does not interfere with a potential user's view through the lenses when the eyeglasses are tried on. A cantilever support extending from the eyeglass display member supports a plurality of eyeglass contacting members and associated eyeglasses.

  • Patent number: 5260726
    Abstract: A pair of non-prescription eyeglasses is mounted on a cantilevered support by a hanger that includes an element constructed of relatively stiff resilient plastic material. Such element includes a relatively wide main section having an aperture which receives the support arm, and a relatively narrow extension. The latter passes through the nose gap of the eyeglasses and is reversely bent to form a loop that surrounds the eyeglass frame bridge. In a first embodiment of this invention a rivet maintains the loop closed and prevents casual removal of the hanger from the eyeglasses. In a second embodiment a snap-type device holds the loop closed. This snap-type closure cannot be opened casually, at least for the first opening thereof.
