  Cap assembly with eyeglassesUSPTO Application #: 20070050888Title: Cap assembly with eyeglasses Abstract: A cap assembly includes an eyeglasses unit connected pivotally to an eyeglass-mounting unit that includes first and second magnet units mounted on a mounting frame that is mounted on a bottom side surface of a visor. A third magnet unit is mounted on one of a lens member, and a pivot member attached to the lens member and connected pivotally to opposite coupling end portions of the mounting frame. The eyeglasses unit is operable to pivot relative to the eyeglass-mounting unit between a use position, where the eyeglasses unit is disposed adjacent to a user's face and where the second and third magnet units attract and contact each other, and a non-use position, where the eyeglasses unit is disposed adjacent to the bottom side surface of the visor and where the first and third magnet units attract and contact each other.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION [0001] This application claims priority of Taiwanese Application No. 094128013, filed on Aug. 17, 2005. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The invention relates to a cap, more particularly to a cap assembly with eyeglasses. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] A conventional cap with sunglasses includes a pair of positioning slots formed respectively in opposite sides of a visor of the conventional cap and engaging pivotally and respectively two engaging protrusions on opposite sides of the sunglasses. In such a configuration, since tight engagement between the positioning slots and the engaging protrusions cannot be ensured after a long period of use, the sunglasses cannot be effectively positioned. [0006] Another conventional cap with sunglasses includes an inverted U-shaped sunglass-mounting seat mounted on a bottom side surface of a visor of the conventional cap. The sunglass-mounting seat has opposite coupling end portions, each of which has an engaging protrusion unit. The sunglasses has opposite sides connected pivotally and respectively to the coupling end portions of the sunglass-mounting seat by means of screw fasteners. Each side of the sunglasses is formed with a positioning groove unit. The sunglasses is pivotable relative to the sunglass-mounting seat, and can be positioned in one of use and non-use positions by engagement between the engaging protrusion unit and the positioning groove unit. In such a configuration, a screw driver is needed when assembling the sunglasses. Furthermore, frequent rotation of the sunglasses results in loosening of the screw fasteners such that the engagement between the engaging protrusion unit and the positioning groove unit cannot be ensured. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0007] Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a cap assembly with an eyeglasses unit that can be effectively positioned in a desired one of use and non-use positions. [0008] According to the present invention, a cap assembly comprises: [0009] a cap having a cap body adapted to be worn by a user, and a visor connected to and extending outwardly from a periphery of the cap body; [0010] an eyeglass-mounting unit including [0011] a mounting frame that is mounted detachably on a bottom side surface of the visor of the cap and that has opposite coupling end portions, [0012] a first magnet unit mounted on the mounting frame and disposed adjacent to the bottom side surface of the visor of the cap, and [0013] a second magnet unit mounted on the mounting frame and spaced apart from the first magnet unit; and [0014] an eyeglasses unit connected pivotally to the mounting frame of the eyeglass-mounting unit and including [0015] a lens member, [0016] a pivot member attached to the lens member and connected pivotally to the coupling end portions of the mounting frame of the eyeglass-mounting unit, and [0017] a third magnet unit mounted on one of the lens member and the pivot member. [0018] The eyeglasses unit is operable so as to pivot relative to the eyeglass-mounting unit between a use position, where the eyeglasses unit is adapted to be disposed adjacent to the user's face and where the second and third magnet units attract and contact each other, and a non-use position, where the eyeglasses unit is disposed adjacent to the bottom side surface of the visor of the cap and where the first and third magnet units attract and contact each other.
