Description

[0001] DESCRIPTION

[0002] Device for cleaning glasses

[0003] OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

[0004] The invention, as the title of this specification indicates, is a device for cleaning eyeglasses. This is an innovation that, within current techniques, offers previously unknown advantages.

[0005] The eyeglass cleaning device allows for efficient cleaning of eyeglass lenses and also serves as a protective case for storing and transporting the glasses.

[0006] TECHNICAL SECTOR

[0007] Therefore, this invention is limited to the sector of manufacturing accessories for glasses, more specifically to the manufacturing of elements for cleaning glasses.

[0008] STATE OF THE ART

[0009] A large percentage of the population wears glasses, whether they are glasses to correct certain optical defects or glasses to protect us from the sun.

[0010] To ensure adequate vision through your glasses lenses, it is essential that they are clean and undamaged.

[0011] Typically, eyeglass wearers use specific cloths for this purpose. However, they don't achieve very efficient cleaning, and often don't completely remove all the dirt. There are also eyeglass cleaning devices that use ultrasonic cleaning. However, these cleaning devices don't perform adequate cleaning, requiring a chamois or cloth to clean the lenses properly, making them inefficient.

[0012] Furthermore, to use it, it is necessary to fill the cubicle with water, so we cannot use it at any time.

[0013] In order to solve the detailed problems, the current invention is presented.

[0014] The existence of any product with the same technical characteristics as the invention presented here is unknown.

[0015] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] The object of the present invention is the creation of a device for cleaning glasses that provides a notable innovation within its field of application in the current state of the art, the characterizing details that make it possible being conveniently included in the final claims that accompany this description.

[0017] The cleaning device allows you to clean eyeglass lenses comfortably and efficiently.

[0018] It can also be used to store glasses, preventing them from becoming damaged when we stop using them.

[0019] Cleaning is done with just the right amount of pressure from the cloths on the lenses, which prevents scratches and thus increases the lenses' useful life.

[0020] To this end, the eyeglass cleaning device comprises a housing that has a housing configured to insert the eyeglasses.

[0021] The lenses rest on rotating heads equipped with a cloth designed to clean the lenses. The housing is covered by a hinged lid that also has two rotating heads equipped with a cloth designed to clean the lenses on the other side.

[0022] The heads are moved by a motor.

[0023] EXPLANATION OF THE FIGURES

[0024] To complete the description being made and in order to help better understand the characteristics of the invention, this descriptive report is attached, as an integral part thereof, with a figure in which, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented.

[0025] Figure 1 shows a view of the cleaning device.

[0026] PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0027] The device for cleaning glasses comprises a housing (1) that has a housing configured to insert the glasses.

[0028] The lenses are supported on rotating heads (2) that have a cloth configured to clean the lenses. Thus, when the head (2) rotates, the cloth cleans the lens.

[0029] The housing is covered by a hinged lid (3) that also has two rotating heads (2) that have a cloth configured to clean the lenses on the other side.

[0030] This is how we clean both sides of the glasses.

[0031] The chamois cloths can be of different types, depending on the type of lenses to be cleaned. The heads (2) will be moved by a motor.

[0032] In one embodiment, the drive means is a motor actuated by a button (4) and powered by an electrical power source. The electrical power source is usually a rechargeable battery, to offer greater versatility to the user. The battery can be recharged by a cable with a USB C connector or similar.

[0033] The power supply can also be a cable connection with a USB connector or similar.

[0034] Preferably, the chamois is removable from the head (2). This way, we can replace it when it has become damaged or stained.

[0035] In another embodiment, the driving means is a crank that moves a set of gears, each of which moves a head (2).

[0036] This way we avoid having to use batteries and the user doesn't have to worry about charging them.

[0037] The housing (1) may have a compartment (5) configured to store contact lenses and cleaning accessories.

[0038] Preferably, the heads (2) will have a pressure sensor configured to move the head (2) closer to or further away from the lens using a mobile mechanism. This ensures that the cloth cleans the lens with just the right amount of pressure, preventing it from scratching.

[0039] The moving mechanism can be an axis on which the head is arranged, configured to move relative to the housing, bringing the cloth closer to or further away from the lens. The axis can be moved manually until the pressure sensor, connected to a control module and an LED, indicates, for example, with the green LED color that the cloth is applying adequate pressure to the lens.

[0040] The shaft can be moved, for example, by a toothed wheel turned by the user by hand, such that the toothed wheel meshes with a rack arranged on the shaft, thereby moving the head closer to or further away from the lens. The cloth can be attached to the head (2) by means of a magnetic attachment. In this way, the cloth can be replaced quickly and easily. The user can use different types of cloths depending on the level of dirt on the lenses.

[0041] The device can also include a UV disinfection element, which not only cleans the glass but also performs general disinfection. This will be especially useful in cases where the user has conjunctivitis.

[0042] The device may also comprise a sprayer, which can, for example, spray anti-fogging liquid, so that the glass does not fog up during use.

[0043] Having sufficiently described the nature of the present invention, as well as the manner of putting it into practice, it is not considered necessary to explain it further so that any expert in the field may understand its scope and the advantages derived from it, stating that, within its essence, it may be put into practice in other embodiments that differ in detail from that indicated by way of example, and to which it will also achieve the protection sought provided that its fundamental principle is not altered, changed or modified.
