CA 2561832

A novel frame construction for eyeglasses (10) is provided wherein the upper frame member (12) is formed to have greatly enhanced flexibility to increase the overall adjustability, comfort and fit of the eyeglasses (10). The upper frame member (12) includes areas wherein the material is selectively weakened to create predetermined flex points (23) periodically within the frame member (12). Additionally, the weakened areas may be filled and/or covered with a second material that is more flexible than the base material used to form the frame member (129. The enhanced flexibility allows the upper frame member (12) to flex as the temple members (18) of the eyeglasses (10) are stretched outwardly providing a comfortable fit for a wide range of wearers. Further, the top edge of the eyeglass lens (14) may include formations (34) that provide clearance for the deflection of the top frame member (12).

L'invention concerne une nouvelle construction de monture pour des lunettes (10). L'élément de monture supérieur (12) est formé pour présenter une flexibilité considérablement accrue, pour augmenter le degré de réglage global, le confort et l'ajustement des lunettes (10). L'élément de monture supérieur (12) comprend des zones dans lesquelles la matière est sélectivement affaiblie pour créer périodiquement des points de flexion prédéterminés (23) à l'intérieur de l'élément de monture (12). En outre, les zones affaiblies peuvent être remplies et/ou recouvertes d'une seconde matière plus flexible que la matière de base utilisée pour former l'élément de monture (12). La flexibilité accrue de ces lunettes permet à l'élément de monture supérieur (12) de fléchir lorsque les éléments de branche (18) des lunettes (10) sont étirés vers l'extérieur, ce qui permet d'obtenir un ajustement confortable pour une grande variété d'utilisateurs. En outre, le bord supérieur du verre de lunette (14) peut comprendre des formations (34) pour supprimer la déflexion de l'élément de monture supérieur (12).
