222 Eyeglass support system US833036 1997-04-03 US5859684A 1999-01-12 Jean V. Rittmann
An eyeglass support system, where, when worn, lenses (55a unseen and 56a) and frame (59a) are lifted onto a wearer's nose by leveraging the rearward ends of sidepieces (47a unseen and 48a) under the lower rear slopes of the wearer's ears. The weight of the lenses plus frame is slightly forward of where the eyeglasses' nosepiece (46c) rests on the wearer's nose. The two sidepieces are mounted to the outside edges of the eyeglasses. The free ends of the sidepieces have ear-rests (51a and unseen 52a), which rest under the lower rear slopes of the wearer's ears. The side pieces supported under the ears, leverage the weight of the glasses up on the nose. The ear-rests hold the nosepiece to the nose at a desired position. This hold is secure because the slopes of the nose and lower rear ears are somewhat parallel.

224 Spring-hinged frame for eyeware US762231 1996-12-09 US5835185A 1998-11-10 William R. Kallman; Leonard M. Dorfman; John F. Ahern
A power and control system for micro-electronics is described, as for lightweight, battery-powered electrochromic (EC) eyewear. Preferably such system includes a primary, lithium-type cell and a secondary, sealed lead acid-type cell in a hybrid, power-sharing configuration capable of supplying the low-energy, high-current (pulse) drain requirements of microelectronics, e.g. a switchable EC lens. A switch-mode power supply controller manages the power-sharing load on the hybrid battery system such that the secondary cell is charged by the primary cell. The system is capable of meeting short-term pulse drain requirements of switching EC lenses from clear to fully darkened at an acceptably fast rate and long-term operating life requirements of approximately 1500 cycles. The invented lead acid-type battery preferably is elongate, of uniform, right-rectangular cross section and provides over 20 mA-hours' capacity and the invented lithium-type battery preferably also is elongate, of uniform, right-rectanglular cross section and provides over 180 mA-hours' capacity, all in a tiny volume compatible with one or more volume-restricted spaces. Preferably, the lithium-type and lead acid-type batteries are of approximately equal form factor and volume, for symmetric placement thereof in a void within either temple. The temples are hingedly connected with the eyewear's front piece via a unique leaf spring that biases the former into one of two orientations relative to the latter. Dual like-cell battery configurations also are disclosed, along with a flexible circuit defining one or more frame-mounted transmissivity switches. A microcontroller is described that fits within a tiny void formed in the eyewear's bridge. Finally an external, battery-powered battery charger case and circuit are described for use with EC eyewear powered by dual lead acid batteries.

The retainer accommodates wear in moving parts held together by the retainer and pin assembly.
235 Metal frame sunglasses and method of making the same US564489 1995-11-29 US5583583A 1996-12-10 Ken Wilson
A pair of sunglasses having an elongated sunglasses frame that is entirely formed from a single sheet of flat aluminum or titanium stock that is bent into a predetermined shape. Left and right hinge mounting portions are formed adjacent the respective edges of the sunglasses frame. A left lens aperture is formed in the sunglasses frame between the left hinge mounting portion and the bridge portion. A right lens aperture is formed in the sunglasses frame between the right hinge mounting portion and the bridge portion. The dimensions of the respective apertures have a greater height and a greater width on the front surface of the sunglasses frame so that lenses pressed into the respective apertures through their front surface edge won't pass out its rear surface edge. A groove is formed in the periphery of each of the apertures and they mate with a ridge formed on the periphery of the respective left and right sunglasses lenses. The metal material of the sunglasses frame permits sufficient stretching or elongation of the material around the lens apertures to allow the sunglass lenses to snap into the grooves around the perimeter of the lens apertures.

239 Property of bonded metal, including forming material of nickel-titatium alloy, and the method of manufacturing the same US768241 1992-05-14 US5431506A 1995-07-11 Satoru Masunaga
This invention relates to the property of a bonded metal including a forming material of a nickel-titanium alloy and its method of manufacture. This bonded metal property is produced by forming a forged structure to achieve an incorporated integral body through the bonding of the nickel-titanium alloy material onto another material of nickel base alloy. The manufacturing method used to achieve this property involves heating both materials at the point to be bonded in an inert gas atomosphere. The materials are first heated to their melting point and in this state are fused together under high pressure. This forms the forged structure on the portion of the materials so treated.
