Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0669495A1] The lens consists of sub-assemblies (5, 6) which are moulded onto one another and have coupling elements on their adjacent edges (51, 61) which extend along the plane of the lens. The coupling elements comprises a male component (54) which has, in its cross-section, a flat face (540) which lies parallel to the plane of the lens, and a curved surface (541) which extends from the edge of the lens in a direction parallel to its plane and then curves round to join the flat surface at right angles. The female component is shaped to fit together with the male one. The flat surface can extend from either the inside or outside of the lens, and the curved surface is in the shape of an arc of a circle.
