Laser-protection spectacles

A safety spectacles against laser radiation has a first frame part which is of integral construction and in which shields are integrated, which cover the area between the frame and the spectacle-wearer's face. This frame part is also drawn over the spectacle-wearer's temple area and forms temple plates. Fitted pivotably to these temple plates are side arms which are each integrated in a further plate which forms the continuation of the associated temple plate.

The length-adjustable spectacle temple includes at least two temple parts one of which is axially displaceable in a sleeve and is fixable in different positions. For this purpose, one of the temple parts is configured as a sleeve at least in one portion thereof. This sleeve has an axially extending slot for a latching slide adjustable axially in two positions. A spring element provided with a detent is disposed in the sleeve. A second temple part is so configured that it can be inserted in the first temple part. This second temple part has indexing recesses axially arranged on the insertable end and is configured to resiliently latch the detent. The latching slide completely covers the slot at least in the latched condition. The latching slide has a pressure body with which it latches the detent in a corresponding indexing recess in one of its two possible positions whereas the latching slide in its second position does not offer any resistance to movement of the two temple parts with respect to each other. A high degree of user satisfaction is provided with the spectacle temple since it makes possible an exchange of the insertable temple part and also permits a length displacement and a latching of the two temple parts to each other with relatively few components in a rapid and simple manner.

The invention is an improved eyeglass frame, having pivotally mounted noseplates. The invention makes it possible to provide eyeglass frames which are made of plastic material at least in the region of the nose support in which metal support plates are pivotally mounted. This is achieved by having an integral cantilevered arm extending from the frame and nose support plates which snaps onto the cantilevered arm in a way that allows the nose plates to pivot and yet remain secure. The pivotal mounting is accomplished by means of a bearing support pan in the arm which coacts with a nipple like projection on the rear of the nose support plates. The support plates are held in position on the cantilevered arm by use of a stirrup extending from the rear of the nose support plates.
