Eyeglasses Retention Mechanism

Abstract

The disclosed device is eyeglasses frame that is self-maintained upon a nose using pad arms attached to a nose bridge via a spring in each of the pad arms. The spring may be activated via one or more levers. As such, a lever would be activating a torsion spring by pulling the pad arms apart to allow for a passage of a nose bridge. Once the pad arms have been placed over the desired location along a nose bridge of a wearer, or removed therefrom, the levers are released returning the pad arms to a pinched orientation with respect to the nose bridge.

What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A vision aid device comprising, two lenses disposed adjacently; said lenses separated by a bridge; said bridge having a middle portion extending forward of the lenses; a nose pad assembly, said nose pad assembly comprising two parallel arms; each of said two parallel arms pivotingly attaching to said bridge on either side of said middle portion; wherein each of said parallel arms comprised of sections extending rearwardly then downwardly; wherein said downward extension angling away from a vertical axis of said frames; and wherein each said parallel arm contains a nose pad; wherein said nose pads are configured to parallelly squeeze a nose bridge of a user therebetween. 
     
     
         2 . The vision aid device of  claim 1 , wherein each of said parallel arms further comprising a lever issuing forwardly from a point of pivotal attachment of said arm to said bridge. 
     
     
         3 . The vision aid device of  claim 2 , wherein said two parallel arms pivotingly attaching to said bridge; wherein said pivoting attachment is spring loaded. 
     
     
         4 . The vision aid device of  claim 2 , wherein said middle section of said bridge and said rearwardly extending parallel arms serve as counterweights for each other. 
     
     
         5 . The vision aid device of  claim 3 , wherein said middle section of said bridge and said rearwardly extending parallel arms serve as counterweights for each other. 
     
     
         6 . The vision aid device of  claim 3 , wherein a downward portion of each of said two parallel arms is angled away from each other. 
     
     
         7 . The vision aid device of  claim 6 , wherein said lenses are held in place by said bridge.
