CONDUCTIVE CONNECTION THROUGH EYEWEAR HINGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240310652 titled 'CONDUCTIVE CONNECTION THROUGH EYEWEAR HINGE
Simplified Explanation: The eyewear device described in the patent application includes a hinge mechanism that allows for the routing of a flexible conductive element through its hollow interior, hidden from external view.
- The eyewear device features a hinge mechanism with a composite conduit for routing a conductor.
- The conductor is concealed within the hinge mechanism, ensuring it is not visible in any operational position.
- The flexible conductive element is routed through the passage defined by the pair of hinge pieces.
- The conductor is connected to the temple of the eyewear device through the hinge mechanism.
- The design of the hinge mechanism allows for a seamless and hidden integration of the conductor within the eyewear device.
Potential Applications: 1. Smart eyewear with integrated electronic components. 2. Wearable technology with discreet wiring for enhanced aesthetics. 3. Medical devices with hidden conductors for patient comfort. 4. Audio devices integrated into eyewear frames.
Problems Solved: 1. Concealing conductors in eyewear devices for a sleek appearance. 2. Providing a secure and hidden pathway for wiring in wearable technology. 3. Enhancing the functionality of smart eyewear with integrated electronic components.
Benefits: 1. Improved aesthetics in eyewear devices. 2. Enhanced functionality of wearable technology. 3. Increased comfort for users with concealed wiring.
Commercial Applications: The technology described in the patent application could revolutionize the design of smart eyewear, medical devices, and wearable technology by offering a discreet and efficient way to route conductors through hinge mechanisms.
Questions about Eyewear Device Technology: 1. How does the hidden conductor in the hinge mechanism improve the functionality of the eyewear device? 2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond eyewear devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
an eyewear device provides for routing a flexible conductive element or conductor through a hollow interior of a hinge mechanism that connects a temple of the eyewear device to its. the hinge mechanism comprises a pair of hinge pieces that defines a composite conduit through the hinge mechanism, conduit and hence the conductor routed through the passage being hidden or obscured from external view in any operational position of the hinge mechanism.
