Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a case and in particular to a case for containing spectacles.
  • a spectacle case acts as a structure for storing and protecting spectacles when they are not worn.
  • a first example of a spectacle case is a "soft" type case, i.e. one which can be deformed without any effort and which is usually made of fabric; it has typically the form of a sheath which is open at one end so as to allow the spectacles to be inserted.
  • Such a spectacle case provides efficient protection against contamination by dust and/or scoring of the lens, it does not ensure to the slightest degree protection against knocks.
  • case is made of rigid material; normally this type of case consists of two shells which, when closed, are situated substantially on top of each other.
  • the two shells are hinged with each other and are able to rotate both during opening and during closing along a portion of their perimeter on which the rotational hinge is mounted.
  • a spring associated with the rotational hinge allows the open and closed conditions to be maintained; this spring exerts a recall force opposing the force exerted during opening or closing by a user.
  • the recall spring may lose its elastic force so that undesirable opening of the case may occur.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a rigid spectacle case which is improved in terms of ease of opening and closing.
  • a further object is to ensure efficient closing of the case.
  • a spectacle case 1 comprises two oppositely arranged shells 2 and 4 which are preferably joined together and rotationally constrained to each other along an axis of rotation A-A, by means of a strip of fabric 5 or other material which is easily deformable and is fixed onto an outer part of both the shells 2 and 4, adjacent to and along the axis of rotation A-A itself; the piece of material 5 keeps the shells joined together during the opening and closing rotational movement about the abovementioned axis.
  • the shells have respective cavities 6, 8 which are arranged longitudinally with respect to the case, namely parallel to the axis of rotation A-A, and with lengthwise dimensions which are proportional to the longitudinal dimension of the case 1.
  • each projecting portion 10, 12 is provided with respective magnets 14, 16 which are oppositely charged so as to ensure magnet attraction and arranged in such a way that the spectacle case 1 in the closed condition ensures efficient closure.
  • each projecting portion 10, 12 is provided with a single magnet 14, 16.
  • a second embodiment envisages the use of several magnets that are associated with the projecting portions 10, 12, so as to distribute to a greater degree the force of magnetic attraction, while maintaining the form and original dimensions of each projecting portion.
  • the first projecting portion 10 may be divided into a plurality of half-projections, each provided with its own magnet and situated opposite the second projecting portion 12 which is essentially divided up in the same manner as the first projecting portion 10, but has magnets with a polarity which is opposite to that of the first portion.
  • This system for joining together the projecting portions 10, 12 ensures a suitable efficiency during closure and, at the same time, easier opening compared to the conventional hinge/spring system of the prior art.
  • the form of the half-projections may be varied, albeit remaining substantially in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the case 1 of the first embodiment; the variation in the form of the half-projections allows better seating of the spectacles which are to be stored.
  • the concept of a magnetic joining system according to the invention may be applied to any type of container provided with a lid.
  • pairs of oppositely charged magnets are associated with the container and the lid in positions which, in the closed condition, are situated opposite each other.
  • Examples of containers of this type are jewellery boxes, cigarette cases, pill boxes and the like.
