BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of eyeglasses, and more specifically, it does not interfere with the ears and does not cause any trouble even when a user wears a hair cap or the like on his head at a beauty salon or the like and does a work such as reading. The present invention relates to semi-temple spectacles capable of securely placing the spectacles front frame in front of the wearer's eyes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, since vision is the most important human perception, it is necessary to correct the visual acuity in the case of a defect such as a decrease in the visual acuity. Usually, spectacles are used for that purpose, and normal vision is obtained by placing a lens that corrects visual acuity in front of the eyes.

By the way, in conventional spectacles, ear-hook type temples are taken out from the side of the spectacles front frame toward the back of the head, and when wearing spectacles, the tip side of the temples is taken up. It is fixed to the head by hooking it on the top of the auricle and the spectacle front frame is placed in front of the eye.

However, in such an ear-hanging type temple, for example, when the headphones are worn on the head for listening to music or the like, the tip end part hooked on the ear interferes with the ear and becomes a hindrance. I was dissatisfied.

In addition, even when a permanent is applied at a beauty salon or the like, if the head is covered with a net or the hair cap is covered, the temples interfere with each other at the ears and the glasses cannot be used. It was very inconvenient and uncomfortable for the spectacle wearer because he was forced to see the naked eye even if he read a book or watch TV during the waiting time until the normal visual environment was obtained.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems when wearing conventional spectacles, and an object of the present invention is to put a head in a beauty salon or the like. To provide semi-temple eyeglasses in which the front frame of the spectacles can be reliably placed in front of the wearer's eyes without interfering with the ears and causing a hindrance even when wearing a hair cap or the like on a work such as reading. It is in.

[0012]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings specifically showing the following.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. In the figure, what is designated by reference numeral 1 is a lens, and what is designated by reference numeral 2 is a bridge. The bridge 2 forms a front frame F by connecting the pair of left and right lenses 1.1.

Reference numerals 3 indicate end pieces, which are arranged on both sides of the spectacle front frame F. Further, what is indicated by reference numeral 4 is an elastic arm, and this elastic arm 4 is made of an elastic member having a restoring elasticity, and the bent portion 41 extends to the vicinity of the cheek bone of the wearer. An end portion 41 is further bent upward (or downward) to form a terminal end portion 42.

The reference numeral 5 indicates a pad member, which is a member that can be held on the wearer's face. In this embodiment, a silicone resin is used as the material to be used.

In the spectacles of this embodiment, however, the end pieces 3, which are arranged on both sides of the spectacle front frame F in which the pair of left and right lenses 1.1 are connected by the bridge 2,
The elastic arms 4 and 4 are respectively extended rearward from the carry-out end portion 3 (see FIG. 1).

In this embodiment, the elastic arm 4 is β-
The bent portion 41 is made of a super elastic alloy such as titanium and extends to the vicinity of the cheek bone of the wearer, and the end portion of the bent portion 41 is bent upward to form the end portion 42. . Then, in the bent portion 41 and the terminal end portion 42, pad members 5.5 that can be held on the wearer's face by the inward elasticity of the elastic arms 4 are arranged (see FIG. 2). ).

At this time, by adopting a tacky silicone resin as the material used for the pad member 5, it is easy to hold it on the skin surface, and the contact feeling is good, and stickiness does not remain. Further, the pad member attaching portions at the bent portion 41 and the terminal end portion 42 of the elastic arm 4 are bent and formed into a hairpin clip shape, and the hooking protrusion 51 formed on the pad member 5 is formed.
The structure can be simplified because it can be engaged with and fixed.

When wearing the glasses of this embodiment, the elastic arms 4 on both sides are expanded outward and
The pad members 5, 5 are brought into contact with the cheekbones of the face in the vicinity thereof.
The spectacles front frame F can be placed in front of the wearer's eye by the holding force of the pad members 5, 5 and the elastic force of the elastic arms 4, 4 on both sides for urging and holding the side face of the wearer.

The pad members 5, 5 are in contact with the wearer's cheek bone (zygomatic bone) in the vicinity thereof. However, on the surface of the face, a sloped portion of the raised portion of the skin called a zygomatic arch. Since they contact each other, the contact surfaces of these two pad members 5 and 5 are not on the same plane, but a relative angle is generated.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, for example, even if a hair cap is put on at a beauty salon or the like, it can be worn without interference, and can be read or TV during a waiting time during permanent work. Even when looking at, a comfortable visual environment can be obtained.

Although the present invention is constructed as described above,
The present invention is by no means limited to the illustrated embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the claims. For example, the material used for the elastic arm 4 is β-.
Not only titanium, other super elastic alloys may be used,
Other metals or elastic plastics can be used. Further, the shape is not limited to the shape that is bent upward, and may be the shape that is downward, or any shape that can contact and stabilize the vicinity of the cheekbone.

Furthermore, the shape of the pad member 5 is not limited to the circular shape shown in the figure, but it is possible to manufacture it in a star shape or a polygonal shape, and the material used is not limited to the silicone resin, but an acrylic resin. You may use resin or rubber,
Furthermore, the means for attaching the elastic arm 4 and the pad member 5 can be modified, and any of them is within the technical scope of the present invention.

[0024]

As described above with reference to the embodiments, in the present invention, elastic arms are provided on both sides of the spectacle front frame, and a pad member that can be held on the face is provided at the ends thereof. The spectacle front frame can be reliably placed in front of the eye of the wearable person by urging and holding the side face of the wearable person by the holding force of the pad member and the elasticity of the elastic arms on both sides.

Therefore, since it is not an ear-hook type as in the past, even when a hair cap or the like is attached to the head at a beauty salon etc., it does not interfere with the ears and does not interfere, so it is comfortable. Can be worn. In addition, since it has a very clean appearance and is excellent in design, it can be said that it has a very high practical utility value in eyeglasses.
