Abstract: |
The invention provides a viewing device, eye "glasses" or spectacles of such inexpensive construction that it lends itself to expendable use, as when fitted with orthogonally related polarized plastic lens elements, to enable 3-dimensional movie viewing. The lens elements are held in aligned and spaced relation by a compliant yet permanently deformable channel, which, in one form, is locally bent to define integral temples or ear pieces, which extend rearwardly of the general plane of orientation of the lens elements. A second and shorter length of what may be the same channel material is used as a bridge element, embracing corresponding other edges of the lens elements and also permanently and locally bent for comfortable support by the nose. The channel sidewalls are locally crimped at the bent localities to secure permanent assembly to the lens elements, and the channel section may be so devised that the indicated crimping is the inherent result of permanent bending.

What is claimed is:
1. A spectacles construction, comprising an elongated channel of relatively stiff material selected for limited compliant deformability transverse to the elongation direction of said channel, said material being permanently deformably yieldable for bending deflections beyond the region of limited compliant deformability, optical-viewing lens means having an elongated-edge portion received in a central part of the length of said channel and overlapped on both sides by the respective sidewalls of the channel, whereby non-overlapped portions of said channel extend longitudinally beyond both ends of the region of overlap of said edge portion, said channel being permanently bent in both non-overlapped portions adjacent the ends of said region of overlap and in the same general direction away from the general plane of orientation of said lens means, whereby the channel side walls in the bent non-overlapped portions are drawn together in permanently deformed enhanced retention of both ends of said edge of said lens means.
