Glasses

A frame for glasses, comprising:

• two lens frames side by side each having an end piece on the outer portion of said lens frames and said end piece having a temple receiving sleeve directly pivotally mounted thereon, said end pieces being of materials which can be integrally joined by welding;
• a pair of temples, each being of a material other than a material which can be joined to said lens frames by welding;
• and
• each temple having a forward end engaged in a corresponding temple receiving sleeve with the temple receiving sleeve being deformed for securing the end of the temple therein.

A method of making a frame for glasses, comprising:

• providing two lens frames in side by side relationship;
• integrally securing a bridge element receiving sleeve of a material which can be welded to said lens frames directly to the top of each of said lens frames by welding;
• integrally securing a nose bridge element receiving sleeve of a material which can be welded to the lens frames to the inner portion of each of said lens frames where the lens frames are in spaced opposed relation by welding;
• integrally securing an end piece of a material which can be welded directly to the lens frames to the outer portion of each of said lens frames on the opposite side thereof from the nose bridge element receiving sleeve by welding, each end piece having a temple receiving sleeve pivotally mounted thereon;
• inserting the opposite ends of an upper bridge element of a material other than a material which ban be joined to said lens frames by welding into the bridge element receiving sleeves so that the bridge element extends between the bridge element receiving sleeves, and deforming the bridge element receiving sleeves for retaining the ends the bridge element therein;
• inserting the opposite ends of a nose bridge element of a material other than a material which can be jointed to said lens frames by welding into the nose bridge element receiving sleeves so that the nose bridge elements extends between the nose bridge element receiving sleeves for retaining the ends of the nose bridge element therein;
• and
• inserting the forward end of a temple of a material other than a material which can be jointed to said lens frames by welding into each of the temple receiving sleeves and deforming the temple receiving sleeves for retaining the ends of the temples therein.
