(E) BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(l)FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This Invention relates to spectacles or eyewear and more specifically eyewear having short temples and modified frame type.
(2)BACKGROUND
A typical pair of eyewear includes a frame and two lenses. For example, the sunglasses frame Includes a support section and two temples. The support section is configured to support the two optical lenses. When worn by the wearer, the support section extends across and is held to the face of the wearer by the two temples and a nose bridge defined by the support section. Each temple extends from an end of the support section along a side of the wearer's head to and between the ear and the rest of the head. A distal end of the tempie is configured to rest aiong a portion of the (outer or external) ear such that the tempie, aiong with the nose bridge, heips to hoid and support the pair of sunglasses to the face of wearer.
Prior art Patent Application No, WO 1988007219 Al discloses a frameiess, sheet like structure sunglasses, which are devoid of temples but this design is difficult to be maintained over the wearers face.
Further prior art Patent No. US 5302977 A discloses a self- adjusting ear steam structure hut still this eyewear requires the placement of tempie over the wearer's ears.
More complicated tempie designs have been proposed wherein eyewear includes adjustable temples, such that a wearer can manually adjust the degree of bias of the temples against the head, for example, U.S. Patent Nos. 4,204,749 and 4,848,891. Additionally, it has been proposed to secure eyewear better by including frictionally engaging members on a portion of the temples, for example, U.S. Patent Nos. 4,204,745 and 5,054,903.
The wearer often feels discomfort due the pressure exerted by the temples over the ears and along the sides of head. The current invention disclosure specifically provides a solution to mitigate the problems existing in prior art inventions which is mainly the discomfort caused due to the pressure created by the temples of the eyewear over the ears of user.
The present invention provides a modified eyewear, as in the sunglasses example above, sunglasses that include the temple and significantly modified eyewear frame. It Is believed that the tempie according to the embodiments described herein is an improvement in strength and/or appearance over the conventional tempie having the two separately molded pieces that are configured to snap together.
