Eyewear including an optical functional member, control electronics, and a sealed electrical connective element connecting the electronics to the optical functional member. The connective element can directly connect the electronics to the optical functional member, or can connect through an intermediate contact, e.g., a plug-and-receptacle. The connective element can be muted from the electronics, around a rimlock of the eyewear to the optical functional member. The connective element can be a conductive compressible member, such as conductive rubber. In some embodiments, the connective element can be a multiconductor cable.

A hinge of the flex type for eyeglasses, the hinge having an internally hollow central hinge body, adapted to be coupled to a second body, which is also internally hollow and is adapted to be coupled to an eyeglasses temple, and to a third body adapted to be coupled to the front of the eyeglasses. It is possible to assemble the central body and the second and third body in a pack, in order to define internally the passage of a data/power cable, the central body allowing an accumulation of the data/power cable and ensuring the passage of the cable between the temple and the front without stretching and/or torsion.

A temple intended to be mounted, by a mounting face, in hinged connection, to a spectacle frame, so as to be able to pivot between one and the other of two stable positions called folded position and unfolded position, respectively.

In particular, the temple comprises, from its proximal end toward a distal end, a first section and a second section. The first section is provided with a first face opposite the mounting face). The second section is in a ball joint with the first section. The first face and the second face are also of complementary shapes so as to allow the fitting of one into the other.

Safety glasses have two magnets located near temple arm hinges so that surfaces of both magnets become coplanar when the temple arm pieces close. The magnets provide two separated areas of coupling that allow the safety glasses to adhere to a surface and stay in place when jarring forces are present. The safety glasses can be stored on magnetically active surfaces or other surfaces with adaptive tabs and may be kept close to where they will be used and in a visible location as a safety reminder or safe location to protect the safety glasses.

Apparatuses, systems and methods for wearable devices such as eyewear are described. According to one embodiment, the wearable device includes a body, electronics, and a connector. The body is configured to hold one or more optical elements, the body being disposable between a collapsed condition and a wearable condition in which the device is wearable by a user to hold the one or more optical elements within user view. The electronics are carried by the body. The connector is configured to enable establishment of an electrical and/or electronic connection with the electronics via the connector, the connector being housed by the body such that the connector is substantially obscured from view when the body is in the wearable condition, and such that the connector is exposed for connective access when the body is in the collapsed condition.

A method of manufacturing a button-enabled housing assembly includes pre-forming a composite button component or insert having an elastically flexible button membrane that is mounted on a rigid frame, and thereafter molding a housing over the button insert. The composite button insert is formed in a co-molding operation and can include a rigid island in the flexible button membrane for supporting a cosmetic keycap.

The invention is directed to eyeglass frames that are mounted and maintained on a user's temple area, providing added comfort and stability. The frames include a pair of rims for enclosing a pair of lenses. The rims are connected to each other via a bridge that can also include a nosepiece for resting the frames on the bridge of the user's nose. The rims further connect to a pair of arms that extend on either side of the user's head with temple pads comfortably retaining the frames on the user. In some embodiments, the frames can further include earpieces that extend behind the user's ears. Advantageously, the disclosed frames can securely and comfortably be worn by the user.

The present invention discloses a connecting assembly, applied to the technical field of wearable devices. The connecting assembly is used for connecting a main body assembly and an electric control assembly of an assembly-detachable intelligent apparatus, and includes a first connector. The connecting assembly is detachably connected to the main body assembly in a first connecting mode. The main body assembly is electrically connected to the first connector. The electric control assembly includes a second connector. The connecting assembly is detachably connected to the electric control assembly in a second connecting mode and/or a third connecting mode. The first connector is electrically connected to the second connector. The present invention further discloses an assembly-detachable intelligent apparatus, which includes a main body assembly, an electric control assembly and a connecting assembly.

An electronic case for electronic spectacles may include a base comprising a cavity formed therein. A first spectacle retention device may be located within the cavity. The first spectacle retention device may be configured to retain spectacles. An electrical control system may be included. An electrical connector may be configured to couple the electrical control system in electronic communication with the spectacles.

A flexible temple for eyeglasses has a temple body which has a fork-shaped end adapted to form a slot within which a slider can slide in contrast with the action of an elastic component. The elastic component is accommodated in a preloaded condition in the slider.
