IMPROVED METHOD AND KIT FOR ATTACHING SIDE SHIELDS TO EYEGLASS TEMPLES

摘要

A method for mounting safety shields onto eyeglass temples and a kit for carrying out that method. A temple (14) of an eyeglass frame is placed in a channel (18) forming part of a side shield (12), thereafter, a pin (16) is inserted into an opening formed in the side shield to create a force fit between the temple, the channel and the pin which attaches the side shield to the temple. The side shield is placed in its operative position before the pin is inserted into the opening, and the force fit resulting from the insertion of the pin into the opening holds the side shield in its operative position.
