Abstract: A pair of eyeglasses includes a lens member formed with left and right retention holes respectively disposed adjacent to opposites sides thereof, and an arcuate groove that extends between the left and right retention holes, that is indented inwardly from a front face and that has two end portions. An elongated connecting member of a temple unit has two end segments extending respectively and rearwardly through the end portions of the groove, and an intermediate segment that is disposed within the groove and that interconnects the end segments. Temples are respectively pivoted to the end segments which are respectively formed with engaging tongues projecting frontwardly into and engaging the retention holes in the lens member.

Abstract: Clamping mechanism of spectacle lens is provided, which does not involve any complications in assembly, but allows the spectacle lens to be held in place with facility and renders the spectacles smart and shapely in design. A pair of glasses or a lens is stably and accurately supported in front of the eyes by poking the projections provided to either the front bar or the rim frame to support the same through at least two points of the same for clamping. The facility of clamping the lens or lenses allows the labor for the assembly of the spectacles to be lightened as well as the production cost thereof to be reduced, which facility also renders the spectacles as assembled smart and shapely in design, so that its industrial applicability is very high.

Abstract: A sunglasses comprising a U-shaped frame having a slot in either end, a groove at the underside having a length substantially the same as frame, a nose pad, a first recess adjacent the nose pad, and a second recess above the first recess; an integrally formed lens having a latched piece in either end and a flexible latched member having a substantially conic shape conformed to the recesses on the top central portion wherein the top edge of the lens, the latched member, and the latched pieces are clung to the groove, the second recess through the first recess, and slots respectively; and a pair of temples. The set of sunglasses is more simplified in components and thus assembly. Further, the stability is enhanced due to the additional securing of the latched member in the second recess.

Abstract: Sunglasses whose lens is stably engaged to a frontal bar while can be easily replaced with another lens when necessary is provided, said sunglasses being light in weight with minimum production parts and sophisticated in design as well. The sunglasses of this invention comprises a frontal bar made of a thin rod material, a longitudinal lens plate supported on said bar, the respective temples axially supported on each end of said bar such that they are collapsible, a nose pad suspended from the middle portion of said bar to the ocular side of said bar, a hook suspended to the frontal side of said bar and a locking means to detachably interlock the respective upper fringes of said lens plate with said bar. In spite of the fact that the sunglasses of this invention is superb in shape stability, its structure is so simple with minimum production parts, production cost is reduced to quite an extent.

Abstract: Eyeglasses with lenses changeable include a frame provided with two semi-rims, and two lenses. The semi-rims have two bent insert means formed in two ends to fit in two insert holes bored in the two opposite sides of the two lenses. The two lenses respectively have an intermediate insert grooves formed in an upper curved edge for each semi-rim to fit therein so as to let each lens combined stably with each semi-rim without swaying or falling off. Thus the lenses may be assembled with the semi-rims easily and quickly, and in addition may be changed to other ones of different colors.

Abstract: A spectacle support includes a unitary strip of spring steel material bent to provide a central curved forehead-engaging portion and a pair of rearwardly and extending arm portions which extend inwardly and downwardly behind the rear of the head of a wearer. The arm portions are stepped outwardly from the forehead-engaging portion, so that when positioned on the head of a wearer, the portions of the spectacle support overlying the temples are spaced outwardly off the temples and apply no pressure to them. By shaping the arm portions of the support, a single size can be worn comfortably by people having a wide range of head sizes and shapes. A lens sub-frame is secured to the central region of the spectacle support for attachment of the lenses. In certain preferred embodiments the support is hingedly coupled with the spectacle support and the lens sub-frame, to permit adjustment of the vertex distance of the lenses from the eyes of the wearer.

Abstract: Sunglasses are formed by an elongated curved frame with a temple hinged at each end of the frame for engaging a user's ears when the frame is in front of the user's face, and a single-piece wraparound double curvature spherical lens secured at its upper edge to the frame and depending in front of the eye portion of a user's face when the frame is supported by the temples on the user's ears. The lens is a double curvature single piece spherical lens. A nosepiece notch is formed in the center of the lower edge of the lens and a nosepiece pad is formed integrally with the lens along the notch. Rearwardly extending rounded peripheral vision shields are formed integrally with the lens on the ends thereof adjacent to and below the frame ends. The shields extend rearwardly of the frame ends for peripherally shielding the user's eyes.

Abstract: Semi-rimless and rimless eyeglass frame assemblies. The semi-rimless frame assembly includes an eyewire extending along the upper and side edges of a lens, a nose bridge, and a pair of endpiece assemblies. The endpiece assemblies have channels for receipt of the eyewire and the lens, and through holes on each side of the channels, aligned with apertures in the lens, for receipt of means to secure the lens to the frame assembly. The endpiece assemblies are pivotally connected to temples.

Abstract: In glasses, in particular industrial safety or sports glasses with an integral continuous sight piece and with inclination-adjustable side pieces articulated on a frame piece it is provided for the purpose of defined and reliable inclination-adjustment accompanied by the advantage of low-cost manufacturing that the sight piece has lateral backwards oriented appendixes formed in one piece with it and extending about in parallel to the wearer's head, that a frame piece with lateral appendixes is arranged along the upper edge of the sight piece surrounding the latter and the latter's appendixes, that the frame piece with the articulated side pieces is supported on the sight piece pivotably around a horizontal pivot axis, in that pins are arranged on the inside of each of the appendixes, that the pins engage with semicircular slits concentric of the pivot axis in the appendixes of the sight piece, wherein, to arrest the pins in certain angular positions of the slits, the latter are formed by a plurality of approx

Abstract: An optometric device includes a semi-rimless plastic two lens frame having two rim surfaces for mounting two lenses in the frame, each having a circumferential groove therearound. The lenses are mounted by the use of a rib projecting from the rim surfaces and integral therewith and configured to engage with a portion of the lens groove to axially fix the lens and by a line and winder which releasably engages the remaining portion of the groove of the lens to radially fix the lens.

Abstract: An eyeglass construction in which the separate lenses thereof are directly attached to a laterally extending brow bar includes a pair of rearwardly extending threaded posts adapted to pass through spaced openings in the upper peripheral portion of each lens whereby the lenses and brow bar are affixed to each other by nuts engaging said threaded posts, said openings and posts extending substantially perpendicular to the rear plane of each lens. Each of the posts is adapted to extend through a spacing bushing disposed between the opposed lens and brow bar surfaces such that the lenses and the brow bar are spaced away from each other, thus providing clearance between the lens and the brow bar, even at the point of maximum curvature of the lens. The length of the bushings may be modified such that varying lens curvatures may be facilitated and still maintained out of contact with the brow bar.
