  • Holder for nosepads on metal spectacles
    Patent number: 4205905
    Abstract: Spring metal supports are soldered to the edges of metal spectacle frames and are formed to define a pair of spring tines having hooked ends. The tines extend through openings in studs embedded in plastic nose pads with the hooked ends of tines normally preventing withdrawal. The tines extend loosely through the openings so the nose pads are free to tilt a limited amount in any direction.
