Eyeglass Shield with Bridge and Temple Clips
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing eye glass shields do not effectively integrate a goggle frame with temple clips that securely attach to the temples of glasses, lacking a design that incorporates a bridge for nose support and adequate protection for the frames.
Innovation Solution
A goggle frame with a center lens, parallel edges, and protruding temples coupled with temple clips, along with a top and bottom base that shields the glasses, and a cut-out bridge for nose support, providing secure attachment and protection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If a goggle frame is attached to the frame of the glasses, then protection for the glasses is improved, but the attachment security and stability are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The attachment system is divided into separate functional components: temple clips that attach to the goggle frame temples and grip the glasses temples, and a bridge that connects the clips. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized for its specific function, improving overall attachment reliability while maintaining protection.
Solution Approach 2:
The bridge acts as an intermediary component connecting the left and right temple clips. This intermediary structure distributes forces evenly across the attachment system and provides stable support, enhancing the overall security of the attachment while maintaining the protective function.
2Ease of operation
If temple clips are used to attach to the temples of the glasses, then attachment ease is improved, but the fit stability and comfort are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The temple clips and bridge are merged into an integrated attachment system where the bridge connects the two clips. This merging ensures that both clips work together as a unified structure, distributing attachment forces evenly and improving fit stability while maintaining the ease of attachment provided by the clip mechanism.
Solution Approach 2:
The bridge is designed with specific geometric parameters (length, width, curvature) that optimize the distribution of attachment forces. By carefully controlling these parameters, the system achieves both easy attachment through the clips and stable fit through the force-distributing bridge structure.
3Ease of operation
If a bridge is added for nose support, then comfort and fit are improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bridge serves multiple functions: it connects the left and right temple clips structurally, provides nose support for comfort, and distributes attachment forces evenly. By making this single component multi-functional, the design achieves improved comfort without adding separate dedicated components, thus limiting the increase in device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The bridge structure is designed to automatically adapt to the user's nose shape and provide support without requiring adjustment mechanisms or additional components. The geometric design allows it to self-adjust to different nose profiles, providing comfort while maintaining structural simplicity.

AI summary
An eye glass shield includes a goggle frame having a center. A lens is positioned in the center of the goggle frame and is constructed of a transparent material. A pair of temples comprising of a left temple and a right temple is coupled to the goggle frame. The left temple is coupled to a left edge of the goggle frame, and the right temple is coupled to a right edge of the goggle frame. A pair of temple clips is coupled to a respective one of the pair of temples. A top base is coupled to a top edge of the goggle frame and protruding there from. A bottom base is coupled to a bottom edge of the goggle frame and extending there from. A cut-out in the goggle frame creates a bridge in the top center of the goggle frame.
