ABSTRACT:
This invention is a reversible eyeglass structure having a ear piece support assembly pivotally connected through a hinge connector assembly to an eyeglass frame assembly. The eyeglass frame assembly resembles a normal eyeglass assembly except that the glass sections and the main frame assembly are extended in parallel planes so that the eyeglass lens can be view through reversed directions and a nose bridge member can be used on a person's nose portion in opposite directions. The ear piece support assembly includes a pair of ear piece support members which are constructed in half sections with exterior surfaces of different colors and/or designs. The ear piece support members are pivoted 180 degrees to effectively present two sets of different appearing eyeglass wear in the one reversible eyeglass structure. The hinge connector assembly provides for ear piece and frame connector assemblies interconnected by a pin connector assembly and including biasing means to hold the ear piece support members in both usage conditions. In a second embodiment of a hinge connector assembly, a resilient pin connector assembly is pivoted so as to hold the ear piece support members against the eyeglass frame assembly under resilient pressure in a selected one of the two usage conditions.
