  • Patent number: 8226229
    Abstract: A nose bearing assembly is secured onto a central area of the spectacles, directly on the optical or sun lenses, or on the bridge connecting the lenses or on a rim frame of the latter, each of the two nose bearing assemblies having a pad intended to contact the nose ala of a user and carried by a pad-bearing arm connected to the spectacles, characterized in that the pad is made of a elastically deformable material and is divided into two areas, i.e. an upper area for receiving a free end of the pad-bearing arm or securing and stiffening the pad in area, and another lower area capable of elastic deformation and of floating freely in all directions in order to obtain a self-adjustment of the pads independently from the morphology of the nose of the user when in contact with the latter.

  • Patent number: 7591555
    Abstract: A framework of combination of spectacle frames with lenses comprises a spectacle frame provided with an upper arm and assembled with a nosepiece, in which a hole seat is formed between the upper arm and the nosepiece and a wedge hole is formed inside the hole seat; a lens provided with a neck, in which adjustment of multiple segments may be made for clamping by using a gibbous wedge of the nosepiece that is arranged in the wedge hole, and a distance between the gibbous wedge and the upper arm may be adjusted for the tight fitness of lens. The lens may be easily assembled into the spectacle frame, and the issue on adjustment of fitness without any segment due to easy assembly.

  • Patent number: 7380934
    Abstract: Spectacles have a frame, a pair of lenses and two nose pads. The frame has two lens mounts and a bridge connecting the lens mounts. The pair of lenses is mounted on the lens mount. Each nose pad has a top and a gear wheel pivoted on the bridge and having a circumferential surface and multiple driving teeth formed on the circumferential surface and meshing with the driving teeth of the gear wheel of the other nose pad. A person can manually turn either of the nose pads to adjust to a desired angle so as to conform to the person's nose, such that the spectacles can be comfortably worn on the person's nose.

  • Patent number: 5386254
    Abstract: A multi-combination sunglasses assembly having a one-piece sunglasses lens, an elongated lens support frame, left and right temple members, and hinge members for detachably securing the temple members to the respective left and right ends of the lens support frame. The temple members are designed so that they can be adjusted for different sized heads while maintaining the ability to positively secure them to the wearer's head. One version has flexible temple members that have hook and loop fastening material secured to their ends so that they may be wrapped entirely around the wearer's head. A second version has adjustable temple members having a bendable ear engaging portion. The nose-pad assembly has structure that allows the sunglasses to be adjusted vertically to suit different shaped faces.

  • Patent number: 5351099
    Abstract: A support arm with a holder for a bearing element such as a nose pad for fastening the holder to a respective frame of eyeglasses. The support arm is constituted, along at least a portion of its length, by a core of hard material and inner and an outer layer of wires wound spirally as a jacket around the core. Because of this combination of materials, the support arm has both adequate stability in the normal position when the glasses are worn by the glasses wearer and also flexible resiliency and ensuing restoration of the normal position in the event of an external strain such as an impact, without permanent deformation of the support arm.

  • Patent number: 4924245
    Abstract: An eyeglass assembly includes a pair of lenses with surrounding lens frames interconnected by bridges joining the lens frames together and cooperating therewith to form an opening for receiving a portion of the wearer's nose. Support means are provided on each lens frame below the bridge for engaging the wearer's nose for additional support. The nose supports include first and second legs formed from a unitary strip of resilient material bent at its mid-portion so that the two legs extend in generally the same direction from an intermediate fold portion. The two legs are resiliently movable toward and away from each other, and a first leg is joined to the lens frame so as to be resiliently movable with respect thereto. The legs may extend in generally upward or downward directions, that is, generally toward and away from the bridge member. The second legs are located adjacent the nose-receiving opening and carry nose-engaging surfaces.

  • Patent number: 4529279
    Abstract: The invention is an improved eyeglass frame, having pivotally mounted noseplates. The invention makes it possible to provide eyeglass frames which are made of plastic material at least in the region of the nose support in which metal support plates are pivotally mounted. This is achieved by having an integral cantilevered arm extending from the frame and nose support plates which snaps onto the cantilevered arm in a way that allows the nose plates to pivot and yet remain secure. The pivotal mounting is accomplished by means of a bearing support pan in the arm which coacts with a nipple like projection on the rear of the nose support plates. The support plates are held in position on the cantilevered arm by use of a stirrup extending from the rear of the nose support plates.

  • Patent number: 4178080
    Abstract: This invention discloses a nose piece assembly for adjustably mounting a nose piece to an eyeglasses frame having a pair of correction lenses connected to each other by a rigid cross piece. In the preferred embodiment, the nose piece assembly comprises a nose piece for engaging the nose of the wearer, a mounting member for adjustably connecting the nose piece to the cross piece of the eyeglasses, and a guide way for maintaining the alignment between the nose piece and the eyeglasses. The outer dimensions of the nose piece are standardized while the inner size and shape are selected in accordance with the facial features of the wearer to ensure maximum visual acuity and comfort. The mounting member consists of a long slender mounting pin having a threaded end portion arranged to engage an internally threaded hole in the nose piece. The mounting member is rotatably mounted on the eyeglasses frame and raises or lowers the nose piece in response to rotational motion imparted to the mounting member.
