EYEGLAss-GUARD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 10, 1906.
Application filed. April 3,1905. Serial No. 253,509:
To all whom t may concern:
Beit known that I, LEwis ALONZO HiNEs, acitizen of the United States, residing at Savannah, in the county of Chatham and State of Georgia, 'have invented a new and useful EyeglassGuard, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to eyeglasses, and has for its principal object to provide a novel form of guard that is mounted for free swinging movement and automatically adjusts itself to the shape of the nose, so that in fitolptician to employ care and time in properly s aping the guards -to accommodate the shape of the nose.
A further obj ect of the invention is to provide a self-adjusting guard which when the olasses are laced in osition will instantly e, P P
conform to the shape of the nose and the dis- I comfort due to accidentalbending of the usual fixed guards will be avoided.
Wit-h these and other objects in view, as will more fully hereinafter appear, thesame consists in certain novelfeatures of construction and arrangement of parts,jhereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims,it being understood that various changes in the forni, proportions, size, and minor details ofthe structure may be made withoutdeparting from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is arear elevation of a pair of glasses constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same, partly in section. Fig.
- 3 is a transverse sectional view on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a detail perpsective view A of the main guardjmember' detached. Fig. 5
is a similar view of the pivotally-mounted guard.
Similar numerals of reference are employed to' indicate correspondin lparts throughout the several figures of the awings.
The boxes or studs 10 are provided with lens-attaching means of the usual type, and
each boX has side flanges 11, between which fit the ends of abowed spring 12 of the usualtype, the spring being held to the studs by a screw 13. v
The main guard 15 is preferably arcuate in form in order to insure a better grip on the side of the nose than the usualI main guard,
' shape and is provide and'at the upper end of said guard is a. projecting portion 16, that fits between the two flanges 11 and is also held in place by a s crew 13. At the juncture of the upper portion of the guard roper and the portion 16 is a flange 17, that ts against the lower edge of the outer flange 11, and this, in connection v 'any play of the guard should the'securing-4 screw 13 work loose.
rI`he arm 18 projects laterally from the upper portion of the main guard member and is bent at a right angle tp forni a projecting ear 19, that is provided i ith a perforation 20, and at the extreme out recess defining a pair o spaced stops 21, the base of said recess being preferablyin a curved line struck from the center of the perforation 20. In the manufacture of this portion of the device the guard, arm, and ear are preferably formed of a single piece of stamped sheet metal, or,` if necessary, the lear 19 may be made of a separate piece of metal, soldered or other-- wise secured to arm 18.
The supplemental (guard 24 is of any suitable at a point about midway of its length with a projecting arm 25, that is bent at a right ang e to form a pivot-ear 26, that is provided with a perforation 27, and at the extreme end of said ear isa projecting tongue 28,' that is bent over into the recess formed between the ytwo stops 21, and said stops -by engagement with said tongue 28 limit the independent movement of the guard 24. The members of the guard 24 may also be formed of a single pieceof stamped sheet metal or of several pieces of metal soldered or edge of said ear is a has been bent over in the recess of the ear 19 the structure is complete, and the swinging movement of the guard is limited by enga ement of said ton distance from each other to permit any movement necessary to accommodate the shape o the nose.
4 e with one or other of t e stops, the latter eing placed at asuiiicient Havingthus described the invention What is claimed isf 1 Thecombination with an eyeglass-frame, of a main guard secured to the frame and provided With a pivot-ear, a self-adjustingguardr also having a ivot-ear, a pivot-stud connecting said ear, t elength of the stud being par-l allel .with the nose-engaging surfaces of the guards, and interengaging means on the pivotears for limiting independent movement of the pivoted guard.
2. The combination with an eyeglass-frame, of a guard having a pivot-eandisposed a proxilnately in a plane at a right angle to t e general plane of the guard', avpivot-stud eX'- t'ending th rough said ear, and mea-ns engaging with said ear t0v limit independent Inovement of the guard'.
3. An eyeglasseframe, a nose-guard rigidly secured thereto and provided with a pivot'- ear, a self-adjusting guard alsohaving an ear, a pivot-stud` engaging the two'ears, a pair of Vstops carried by one of the ears, and a) ton e carried by the second ear and playing etween the two-stops.
4. In an eyeglass-fram@ va iiangedistud, a.v
pair of stops, a selfladjusti'ngguard havingl a projecting' arm and' providedfwitha pivotear having a' tongue arrange-d to play' be.- tween the two stops, and a: pivoting means connecting the twoA ears.
In testimony that I claim the f'ol'egiaing as' my own I have hereto aflixed my signature in the presence' of two'witnesses;
