Patent ID: 7594724

Claim:
A device for locating a pair of ear engaging members and an eye protector in proximity to a user's head, comprising: a cord comprising (i) a length with an ear end and an opposite eye end and (ii) a dual mode adjustment member located along the length of the cord between the ear and eye ends; the ear end of the cord comprising a left ear end and a right ear end wherein each left and right ear end can have one of the pair of ear engaging members joined thereto; the eye end of the cord comprising a left eye end and a right eye end wherein each left and right eye end has an eye protector connector joined thereto; and, the dual mode adjustment member is positionable along the length of the cord: (i) to a first mode that adjustably shortens the length of the cord between the adjustment member and the eye end of the cord to thereby provide a force to tension the eye protector connectors toward each other, and (ii) to a second mode that adjustably lengthens the length of the cord between the adjustment member and the eye end of the cord to thereby reduce the force of tension between the eye protector connectors and enable them to be moved further away from each.
