Abstract
The present invention proposes an improved pad structure comprising a frame, a pair of pads, and a pair of sponges. The frame comprises a pair of rims, a bridge, and a pair of fasteners. A ductile belt can be tied between the pair of fasteners. The pair of sponges are respectively joined with the pair of rims. The inner edges of the pair of pads respectively sheathe the pair of sponges. Although the positions of the sponges and the pads are interchanged, the swimming glasses also maintain resiliency. Moreover, when the swimming glasses are worn, because the pair of sponges are respectively sheathed at the inner edges of the pair of pads and the face contacts tightly with the pair of pads, penetration of water into the swimming glasses because of absorption of water by the sponges can be avoided.
Claims1
Swimming glasses having an improved pad structure, comprising:
- a frame including (a) a pair of rims respectively holding a pair of lenses, each of said rims having opposing inner and outer end portions, (b) a bridge joining together said inner end portions of said pair of rims, and (c) a pair of fasteners respectively disposed on said outer end portions of said pair of rims;
- a pair of pads respectively coupled to said pair of rims, each of said pads having opposing first and second sides and a central through opening extending therebetween, said first side of each of said pads being coupled to a rear side of a respective one of said rims and said second side of each of said pads being disposed in contact with a user's face, each of said pads having an annular groove formed in an edge thereof bordering said central through opening;
- and,
- a pair of sponges respectively disposed in said annular grooves of said pair of pads for maintaining resiliency of said pair of pads and preventing water infiltration into respective interior spaces of said rims.
