Guide for tear-off eyewear lens strips

摘要

A novel removable lens strip system suitable for use with goggles and helmets is disclosed, wherein lens strips may be easily removed from the goggle lens or helmet shield as the strips become soiled, and thus obstructing the user's vision. More specifically, a guide piece is employed that shields underlying removable lens strips from being inadvertently removed.

1. A removable lens strip tear-off system suitable for use with goggles and headwear shields, said system comprising:
a. a stack of at least two removable lens strips secured next to one another, said stack comprising a top-most strip and an inner most strip, said inner most strip secured directly to a top surface of an eyewear lens system; b. at least one securing post, wherein said removable lens strips are secured to said eyewear system by said at least one securing post; c. each of said strips having an extended tab configured to allow a user to remove said top-most strip from said stack, wherein each of the tabs of the strips underlying said top-most strip are folded upon itself and not fully extended until becoming the top-most strip; and d. a guide piece configured for attachment near said stack of tear-off strips, wherein said guide piece is positioned adjacent to said at least one securing post to form a space therebetween, such that said extended tabs of said innermost and underlying strips are housed within said space and shielded by said guide piece whereby as a user grabs the tab of said top-most strip, said guide piece prevents the user from removing underlying lens strips as said user's hand comes in contact with said guide piece.
