Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a light-emitting eyeglasses grip that is suitable for attaching to eyeglasses, making it easy to find eyeglasses even in dimly lit or dark places. [Background technology]

[0002] If an earthquake or other disaster occurs at night, it can be inconvenient to be unable to find your glasses when evacuating if you cannot immediately locate them, or it can take a long time to find them. If you leave your glasses behind while evacuating, it is expected that you will trip and fall, or bump into other people fleeing, which can be dangerous. For this reason, there are products that allow you to quickly find your glasses, even in dark places.

[0003] In order to make eyeglasses easier to find in the dark, conventional eyeglass frames have been fitted with covers containing luminescent material, or the luminescent material has been mixed into the eyeglass frames themselves. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3089630 [Patent Document 2] Utility Model Registration No. 3089288 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The eyeglass frame cover described in Patent Document 1 is a cover containing a fluorescent agent that can be attached and detached to the eyeglass frame, but there is a problem that when the eyeglasses are worn, the eyeglass frame cover containing the fluorescent agent gets into the field of view, making it difficult for the eyeglass wearer to see objects. There is also a problem that the design of the eyeglasses that is usually worn is significantly changed.

[0006] Furthermore, the eyeglass frame described in Patent Document 2 also has fluorescent material mixed into the eyeglass frame itself, so just like Patent Document 1, when wearing the glasses, the eyeglass frame containing the fluorescent material comes into the user's field of vision, making it difficult to see objects.

[0007] To provide an attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip that makes it easy to find existing eyeglasses themselves even in the dark, does not obstruct the user's field of vision, and does not significantly change the design of eyeglasses that are already being used. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The attachable luminous eyeglasses grip of the present invention is a cylindrical, stretchable member into which eyeglasses temples are inserted, The axis of the cylindrical elastic member Along the direction The cylindrical member has a cross-sectional circumferential direction of 1 / 8 to 1 / 2 of the area. It is characterized by being coated with or containing a luminescent agent. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] In the present invention, the device is not incorporated into the original design of the glasses, but is attached to the glasses as an accessory, so that it can be added to existing glasses and does not obstruct the user's field of vision.

[0010] The luminous eyeglasses grip attached to the temples is made of an elastic material containing a luminous agent, so that it is not noticeable when the eyeglasses are worn on the head, as it is hidden by the ears and hair, and the eyeglasses can be worn without feeling any pressure on the head.

[0011] Furthermore, if the portion of the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip to which the phosphorescent agent is applied or contained occupies between 1 / 8 and 1 / 2 of the circumference of the cross section of the tubular, stretchable member, the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip can be attached to the temple so that the portion to which the phosphorescent agent is applied or contained faces the head, and when the eyeglasses are worn on the head, the portion to which the phosphorescent agent is applied or contained of the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip cannot be seen by others, making it possible to make the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip less noticeable.

[0012] Unlike luminous eyeglass cases, even when you don't put your glasses back in the case, you can still locate your glasses thanks to the glow of the luminous material in the attached luminous eyeglass grip of the present invention, which is inserted into the temples of your glasses.

[0013] Furthermore, it is highly functional. By combining phosphorescent technology with a glasses grip, it has the advantage of being able to indicate the location of glasses in dark places such as at night while also keeping the glasses fixed to the face. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0014] [Figure 1] A perspective view of the attached phosphorescent eyeglass grip attached to the temple of eyeglasses. [Figure 2] Perspective view of attached luminous eyeglass grip [Figure 3] 1 is a perspective view of another embodiment of a mounted luminous eyeglass grip; [Figure 4] View of the temples when the glasses are folded [Figure 5] View of the glasses from the lens side when folded DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0015] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following, the same reference numerals in different drawings indicate parts with the same functions, and duplicated explanations in each drawing will be omitted as appropriate.

[0016] The attachable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 in this invention refers to a grip made of an elastic material such as silicone rubber, with a luminous agent applied to or contained within the inner portion of the temples that face the head when the eyeglasses are worn. The portion 8-1 that is applied to or contains the luminous agent is shown in white, while the other portion 8-2 that is not applied to or contains the luminous agent is shown in hatching (black in Figures 1 and 4). The eyeglasses are composed of temples 1, tip cells (embellishments) 2, rims (lens frames) 3, hinges 4, lenses 5, bridge (the joint between two lenses) 6, and nose pads 7.

[0017] The attachable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 is made of a relatively flexible material such as silicone rubber, so it can be easily attached to eyeglasses that the user already owns. Therefore, when you want to obtain the effects of the present invention, there is no need to purchase new eyeglasses.

[0018] 2 is a perspective view of the wearable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 of the present invention. The wearable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 is made of a cylindrical, stretchable member. Any shape can be selected as long as it is cylindrical, such as a cylindrical column or one with an oval cross section.

[0019] The cylindrical stretchable member may be made of silicone rubber, for example, and can be inserted from the tip cell 2 of the temple 1. Alternatively, a cut in the same direction as the axial direction of the tube of the mountable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 may be provided on part of the surface so that it can be placed over the temple 1.

[0020] In Figure 2, the portion 8-1 to which the luminous agent is applied or contained is shown in white, and the other portion 8-2 is shown in hatching. It is desirable that the luminous agent be applied to or contained in 1 / 8 to 1 / 2 or less of the circumference of the cross section of the attachable luminous eyeglasses grip 8. If the luminous agent is applied to or contained in 1 / 8 to 1 / 2 or less of the circumference of the cross section, when the user wears the eyeglasses, if the attachable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 is attached so that the portion 8-1 to which the luminous agent is applied or contained faces the head, the portion of the attachable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 on the side opposite the head will face the portion 8-2 to which the luminous agent is not applied or contained, making the eyeglasses to which the attachable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 is attached less noticeable to others.

[0021] Furthermore, if the cylindrical length of the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip 8 is between 1 / 3 and 1 / 2 of the temple length, when a user wearing eyeglasses attaches the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip 8 to the temple 1 by moving it closer to the tip cell 2, the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip 8 will not enter the field of view and will not impede the user's visibility. Also, when a person wears the eyeglasses, the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip 8 will be covered by hair near the ears and will not be noticeable. Furthermore, even if the attachable phosphorescent eyeglasses grip 8 comes into contact with the user's head, it will not impair the wearing comfort because it is made of a cylindrical, stretchable material.

[0022] Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a wearable luminous eyeglasses grip 8 in the case where a luminous agent is applied to silicone rubber that does not have a luminous effect. The wearing method and material are the same as those in Fig. 2, but it differs from the embodiment shown in Fig. 2 in that the luminous agent is not contained in the silicone rubber, but is instead applied to the surface of a cylindrical silicone rubber.

[0023] 4 is a view of the eyeglasses viewed from the temple side with the attached luminous eyeglass grip 8 of the present invention attached to the temple 1 and the temple 1 folded into the eyeglasses. In this case, when viewed from the temple 1 side, only the portion 8-2 of the luminous eyeglass grip 8 that is not coated with or contains a luminous agent is visible.

[0024] 5 is a view of the attachable luminous eyeglass grip of the present invention attached to temple 1, viewed from the lens 5 side with temple 1 folded into eyeglasses. When viewed from the lens 5 side, luminous portion 8-1 of luminous eyeglass grip 8 can be seen through lens 5 on the other side. As a result, when placing eyeglasses on a desk or the like, it is common to place the temple 1 side in contact with the desk to avoid scratching the lens 5. Even when the eyeglasses are placed in the dark with temple 1 folded into the eyeglasses, portion 8-1 coated with or containing the luminous agent can be seen, making it easy to locate the eyeglasses. [Industrial Applicability]

[0025] This invention can be easily attached to the temples of existing eyeglasses, making it easy to find your glasses even in the dark. Furthermore, by using silicone rubber with a phosphorescent agent in the grip of the eyeglasses, they are less noticeable when hidden by ears or hair, even when wearing glasses in the dark. Unlike phosphorescent eyeglass cases, the location of your glasses can be recognized even when you don't put them away in a case. Furthermore, by combining phosphorescent technology with the eyeglass grip, you can easily find your glasses in dark places, such as at night, while still being able to secure them to your face.
