Abstract
An attachment glasses to the spectacles includes a pair of rims with gasses connected by a T-shaped bar which has an extension centrally projected inward having a transverse axial hole in the proximity of free end, a pair of first and second clipping plates in symmetrical arrangement each has a pair of axial holes rotatably secured to the transverse axial hole of the T-shaped bar by an axial pin, a padded transverse groove engageable with the bridge of the spectacles, a pair of magents beneath the groove. When the grooves engage with the bridge, the magnets of the first and second clipping plates will attract each other in order to firmly clip the attachment glasses to the spectacles.
Description




BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION




The present invention relates to spectacles and more particularly to an attachment glasses to the spectacles which can be readily attached to the bridge of a pair of spectacles.




A pair of spectacles not only improve user's eyesight, protect the eye from under strong light and ultraviolet rays but also beautify the face of the user. A nearsightedness could not leave the spectacles and felt difficult to walk under the sunshine. If he wears a pair of plane dark colored spectacles, he can not see anything in front of him except that the lens of the dark colored spectacle has the same degrees suitable to him, this may cost too much for him. So that an attachable sun glasses is therefore produced to directly attach to the lens of the spectacles to solve this problem. However, the attachment of this attachable sun glasses has many disadvantages on design. It always break off under any vibration when the user jumps or runs.




SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION




The present invention has a main object to provide a attachment glasses to the spectacles which can firmly attach to the spectacles without breaking off.




Another object of the present invention is to provide the attachment glasses to the spectacle which is easy to manufacture and needs not to modify the spectacles.




Accordingly, the attachment glasses of the present invention comprises generally a pair of glasses connected by a roughly T-shaped bar, a clip hinged to the T-shaped bar for clipping the attachment glasses to the bridge of the spectacles. Because of that each of the clipping pieces of the clip has magnets on inner side. So that the attachment of the glasses to the spectacles is very reliable and secure.




The present invention will become more fully understood by reference to the following detailed description thereof when read in conjunction with the attached drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT




With reference to

FIGS. 1

to


5


of the drawings, the attachment glasses to the spectacles of the present invention comprises generally a frame


10


which is composed of a pair of rims with glasses


11


therein and a roughly T-shaped bar


12


connected the rims therebetween. The T-shaped bar


12


has a transverse extension


13


perpendicularly projected outward including an axial hole


131


transversely formed in proximity of the free end.




A pair of first and second clipping plates


21


and


22


are symmetrically formed each has a transverse groove


212


and


222


, in inner surface facing each other, a pair of retaining recesses


215


and


216


formed spaced apart in a lower portion beneath the groove


212


and


222


for retaining a pair of magnets


216


and


226


, a flexible cushion


213


and


223


fixedly disposed into the groove


212


and


222


and a bent outward piece


214


and


224


at lower end. The first clipping plate


21


further has a pair of inwardly protrudent axial holes


211


on upper portion made engageable with the axial hole


131


of the T-shaped bar


12


and the second clipping plate


22


further has a pair of upwardly protrudent axial holes


221


on the top made engageable with the outside of the axial holes


211


of the first clipping plate


21


.




When assembly, engage the axial holes


131


,


211


and


221


together, then rotatably secured by an axial pin


23


(as shown in FIGS.


2


and


4


). Because of that the magnets


216


and


226


have their opposing poles facing each other, when the first and the second clipping plates


21


and


22


mount to a bridge


41


of the spectacles


40


, they will attract to each other and therefore firmly clipping the attachment glasses


10


onto the bridge


41


of the spectacles


40


wherein the grooves


212


and


222


engage with the bridge


41


(as shown FIGS.


3


and


5


). This attachment of the attachment glasses


10


to the spectacles


40


should be very stable and without breaching off on any vibration. Besides the clipping plates


21


and


22


are positioned above the nose pads of the spectacles


40


, it would not touch the nose of the user.




Referring to

FIG. 6

, if dispose an elastic inverse U-shaped clip


30


between the upper portion of the clipping plates


21


and


22


, the attachment would be more stable.




The specification relating to the above embodiment should be construed as exemplary rather than as limitative of the present invention, with many variations and modifications being readily attainable by a person of average skill in the art without departing from the sprit or scope thereof as defined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents.



Claims
