Abstract:
A pivotable sunshade clip for spectacles having a pair of coupling members, the sunshade clip comprising:a pair of lens frames; a pair of actuating members attached to the lens frames, the actuating member being outwardly extended from outer ends of the lens frames, respectively; and a pair of lever arms attached to the actuating members, the lever arms being extended rearward from the actuating members at right angles to the actuating members, respectively, wherein: each of the actuating members is provided at the rear part thereof with a magnet, the magnet being exposed to the rear surface of each of the actuating members; each of the lever arms is provided at the lower part thereof with another magnet, the magnet being exposed to the lower surface of each of the lever arms; and each of the coupling members has a spectacles magnet penetrating from a front surface to a rear surface thereof, the spectacles magnet alternately making contact with the magnet of each of the actuating members and the magnet of each of the lever arms, the spectacles magnet having a magnetic polarity opposite to that of the magnet of each of the actuating members and to that of the magnet of each of the lever arms, whereby the sunshade clip is pivoted upward or downward about a pair of lever faces as fulcrums for the lever arms, by means of increased magnetic attraction between the magnets of the lever arms of the sunshade clip and the corresponding spectacles magnets of the coupling members of the spectacles or between the magnets of the actuating members of the sunshade clip and the corresponding spectacles magnets of the coupling members of the spectacles, each of the lever faces being formed on each of the coupling members, the lever arms being placed on the lever faces of the coupling members, respectively.
