  • Patent number: 4455689
    Abstract: A specially configured and dimensioned bracket is inserted through the strap slot at one side end of a goggles frame. A plurality of transparencies are installed over the lens, one at a time. Peripheral tabs on the lens shaped portion of each transparency are inserted between the lens and the goggles frame. A retaining pin extending from the bracket is forced through a small hole formed in the inner end of an arm portion which extends from one end of the lens portion of the transparency. The arm portion of the transparency is folded back on itself so that the retaining pin extends through a large hole in the outer end of the arm portion. The arm portion of the outermost transparency is not folded but is left free to be grasped with one hand so that the transparency can be torn away from the goggles frame when soiled, thereby enhancing a racer's vision. When this is done, the arm portion of the outermost transparency just uncovered unfolds but remains attached to the retaining pin.
