Abstract
The clip-on sunglass assembly mounts on eyeglasses and has mirror image frame parts. Each includes a lens retaining frame portion with a set of protruding 'L' shaped eyeglass engaging prongs and a bridge element. A mechanism is provided for connecting the bridge elements for movement between a proximate position, where the frame parts are relatively close to each other, and a remote position, where the frame parts are relatively far from each other. The connecting mechanism includes at least one coil spring situated within a cylindrical enclosure. The enclosure has an open end which receives the bridge element of one frame part. The spring is operably situated between the end of the bridge element and the interior wall of the enclosure adjacent the open end. The spring normally biases the frame parts toward each other such that the prongs securely engage the eyeglass frame.
