[0033] Example 1

[0034] As attached Figure 5 The illustrated cellulose acetate sheet for making eyeglass frames is formed by heating and pressing two first cellulose acetate sheets 1 and two second cellulose acetate sheets 2. The first cellulose acetate sheets 1 and the second cellulose acetate sheets 2 are arranged side by side along a width direction W. In the width direction W, the first cellulose acetate sheets 1 and the second cellulose acetate sheets 2 are arranged alternately, and the thickness direction of the second cellulose acetate sheets 2 is consistent with the width direction W.

[0035] The first cellulose acetate board 1 and the second cellulose acetate board 2 can each adopt different structures, colors or patterns, thus enabling the simultaneous display of the plane and cross-section of cellulose acetate boards produced by existing methods on a single surface, allowing for free combination of structures, colors or patterns.

[0036] The second cellulose acetate board 2 is a cellulose acetate board having 1 to 100 layers of cellulose acetate veneer 21. The thickness of the different layers of cellulose acetate veneer 21 can be equal or unequal. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3The second cellulose acetate sheet 2 shown is a cellulose acetate sheet with 5 layers of cellulose acetate skin 21. When the second cellulose acetate sheet 2 is a cellulose acetate sheet with 1 layer of cellulose acetate skin 21, the cellulose acetate sheet used for making eyeglass frames is equivalent to using a single cut pattern of the second cellulose acetate sheet 2. When the second cellulose acetate sheet 2 is a cellulose acetate sheet with more than 2 layers (including 2 layers) of cellulose acetate skin 21, the cellulose acetate sheet used for making eyeglass frames is equivalent to using a plurality of cut patterns of the second cellulose acetate sheet 2.

[0037] Of course, the cellulose acetate sheets used to make eyeglass frames can also be formed by heating and pressing more than two first cellulose acetate sheets 1 and more than two second cellulose acetate sheets 2. Eyeglass frames made from cellulose acetate sheets are shown in the attached image. Figure 6 To be continued Figure 8 As shown, among which, appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 The image shows the use of cellulose acetate sheets in eyeglass frames, with... Figure 8 The image shows cellulose acetate sheets used on the temple threads of an eyeglass frame.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] This embodiment illustrates a method for manufacturing cellulose acetate sheets for eyeglass frames. The specific steps are as follows:

[0040] A. Arrange at least two identical or different types of first cellulose acetate sheets 1 in a pressing mold, with a set distance between adjacent first cellulose acetate sheets 1.

[0041] B. Select a number of second cellulose acetate sheets 2 with a thickness equal to the set distance between each of the first cellulose acetate sheets 1. The second cellulose acetate sheets 2 are cellulose acetate sheets with 1 to 100 layers of cellulose acetate skin 21.

[0042] C. Cut the second cellulose acetate board material 2, as shown in the attached document. Figure 1 As shown, attached Figure 1 The dotted lines in the diagram refer to the cutting lines. The width of the second cellulose acetate board 2 formed by the cutting is equal to the thickness of the first cellulose acetate board 1, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 2 As shown.

[0043] D. Flip the second cellulose acetate board material 2 formed by cutting 90 degrees, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 As shown, it is placed between corresponding adjacent first cellulose acetate boards 1, ensuring that its two sides in the thickness direction D abut against the sides of the adjacent first cellulose acetate boards 1, and its two sides in the width direction W1 are flush with the upper and lower surfaces (s1, s2) of the first cellulose acetate boards 1, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 4As shown.

[0044] E. Heating and pressing to creep-bond the first cellulose acetate board 1 and the second cellulose acetate board 2 into one piece, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 5 As shown, the finished product, which is bonded together by creep, does not form seams between different sheets. When making specific products such as eyeglass frames, it will not crack at the joints of different sheets due to bending. The structure is stable and facilitates processing.

[0045] F. Cool to room temperature to complete the process.

[0046] The first cellulose acetate board 1 and the second cellulose acetate board 2 can each adopt different structures, colors or patterns, thus enabling the simultaneous display of the plane and cross-section of cellulose acetate boards produced by existing methods on a single surface, allowing for free combination of structures, colors or patterns.

[0047] In step B, the second cellulose acetate board material 2 can be formed by baking cellulose acetate granules of different colors and shapes at high temperatures and then extruding them through a die and a roller. Alternatively, it can be formed by mixing cellulose acetate granules of different colors and shapes into particles of different sizes and colors using a granulator and pelletizer, then placing them in a press mold, pressing them at high temperatures, and planing the bottom. It can also be a cellulose acetate board material with 2 to 100 layers of veneer. Specifically, it involves spraying 2 to 100 sheets of cellulose acetate veneer with adhesive, bonding them together to form a module of thickness, then placing the module in a panelizing machine for hot pressing, cooling it to room temperature, and then cold pressing it to form the final product.

[0048] It is worth noting that during the production process, in the direction of the first cellulose acetate sheet 1 (i.e., the width direction W), the difference between the total width of the first cellulose acetate sheet 1 and the second cellulose acetate sheet 2 and the width of the pressing die is between 0 and 0.5 mm. This ensures that when heated and pressed, each material can extend in the width direction W after thermal expansion, and will not bulge in the thickness direction to form bulges at adjacent positions, which would cause product defects and damage the integrated structure and overall appearance.

[0049] In step A, the heating and pressing process involves a temperature between 150°C and 170°C and a pressure of 35 kg / cm². 2 Up to 45kg / cm 2 The heating and pressing process takes 50 to 70 minutes, under which conditions the product will have the best results.

[0050] Acetate fiberboard produced by this method is shown in the attached figure. Figure 5 As shown.

[0051] Eyeglass frames made of cellulose acetate sheets, as shown in the attached image. Figure 6 To be continued Figure 8 As shown, among which, appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 The image shows the use of cellulose acetate sheets on the eyeglass frame 41, while the attached... Figure 8 The image shows the use of cellulose acetate sheets on temple threads 42 of an eyeglass frame. This allows for the simultaneous display of the planar and cross-sectional structures, colors, or patterns of cellulose acetate sheets produced using conventional methods on a single surface.

[0052] The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention are equivalent substitutions and are included within the protection scope of the present invention.
