Patent ID: 7344242

Claim:
A glasses frame with one arm on the right and on the left sides and with a mount, which has one connector element each on the left and right, the end of which close to the arm points, when unfolded, in the direction of the arm, so that on the connector element there are joint elements positioned, which work with joint elements positioned on the end of the arm toward the mount, forming a rotary joint, and so that the arm on its end toward the mount has at least two fingers in its longitudinal direction, which are so configured that they exert spring action essentially in the direction of the joint axis of the rotary joint, which spring action holds the joint elements of the arm and of the connector element in a rotatable and secure connection, characterized in that the fingers of the arm comprise leaf springs whose leaf surface, when the arm is unfolded, runs essentially in the plane of the connector element belonging to the arm; wherein the fingers form three leaf springs.
