Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of eyewear technology, and more particularly to a rotating component for eyeglasses and eyeglasses. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, smart glasses use a hinge connection between the temples and the frame, allowing the temples to open or fold relative to the frame for wearing and storage. However, the opening range of the temples relative to the frame is limited. Users with larger head circumferences may experience this by stretching the temples open, which not only affects the stability of the connection between the temples and the frame, making the temples prone to damage, but also results in poor wearing comfort and a negative user experience. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a rotating assembly for eyeglasses and eyeglasses.
[0004] In a first aspect, this application provides a rotating assembly for eyeglasses, used to connect the frame and temples of eyeglasses, the rotating assembly for eyeglasses comprising:
[0005] A frame mount for connecting to the frame;
[0006] A temple base is provided for connection to the temple, and the temple base is rotatably connected to the frame base. When the temple is subjected to force, the temple base can be driven to flip outward or fold relative to the frame base.
[0007] An elastic structure is disposed on one of the frame base and the temple base. When the temple base is rotated outward relative to the frame base to a first preset angle, the elastic structure presses against the other, and the frame base limits the rotation of the temple base. The first preset angle is greater than 90°.
[0008] In some embodiments, one of the frame base and the temple base is provided with a mounting cavity and an opening communicating with the mounting cavity;

[0010] In some embodiments, the elastic structure includes an elastic element and an abutment element. The elastic element is located within the mounting cavity, and the abutment element includes a stepped first portion and a second portion. The first portion abuts against the elastic element and is confined within the mounting cavity, while the second portion can extend or retract through the opening.
[0011] In some embodiments, when the temple mount is rotated outward relative to the frame mount to a second preset angle, the elastic structure can press against the other of the frame mount and the temple mount, wherein the second preset angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 90°.
[0012] In some embodiments, the frame base includes a frame base body and a first ear plate extending from the frame base body, and the temple base includes a temple base body and a second ear plate extending from the temple base body, wherein the second ear plate is rotatably connected to the first ear plate.

[0016] In some embodiments, the rotating assembly for eyeglasses further includes a pivot shaft, through which the temple mount and the frame mount are rotatably connected.
[0017] The wiring component is coaxial with the rotating shaft.
[0018] In some embodiments, the temple base has a third lug, and the pivot passes through the third lug;
[0019] The wiring component is provided with a limiting notch extending along its own rotation direction. The third ear plate extends into the limiting notch and can rotate relative to the wiring component within the limiting notch, and can drive the wiring component to rotate.
[0020] In some embodiments, the frame base is provided with the wiring channel, and the wiring component is provided with a limiting protrusion that extends into the wiring channel;
[0021] The wiring channel has an inner wall and an outer wall in the left-right direction of the glasses. The inner wall and the outer wall are configured to limit the limiting protrusion to limit the rotation of the wiring component.
[0022] In some embodiments, when the temple mount is rotated outward relative to the frame mount to a first preset angle, the limiting protrusion abuts against the inner sidewall, and the third ear plate abuts against the first end in the extending direction of the limiting notch;
[0023] When the temple base is fully folded relative to the frame base, the limiting protrusion abuts against the outer side wall, and the third ear plate abuts against the second end in the direction of the extending limit notch.

[0027] The wiring channel has a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are arranged opposite to each other. Both the first sidewall and the second sidewall can drive the wiring component to rotate through the limiting protrusion, and the rotation directions are opposite.
[0028] When the temple mount is rotated outward relative to the frame mount to the first preset angle, the first sidewall and the second sidewall are arranged opposite each other in the front-back direction of the glasses, and the second sidewall is relatively closer to the end of the temple that is away from the frame.

[0060] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application, the solution of this application will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0061] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this application, but this application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.
[0062] This application provides a rotating assembly for eyeglasses, used to connect the frame and temples of eyeglasses. The eyeglasses can be smart glasses such as AR glasses, VR glasses, or MR glasses, or everyday glasses such as sunglasses, prescription glasses, or reading glasses.
[0063] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the rotating assembly for eyeglasses includes a temple base 1, a frame base 2, and an elastic structure 3. The frame base 2 is connected to the eyeglass frame. The temple base 1 is connected to the temple and is rotatably connected to the frame base 2. When the temple is subjected to force, the temple base 1 can be rotated outwards or folded relative to the frame base 2. The elastic structure 3 is disposed on one of the frame base 2 and the temple base 1. When the temple base 1 rotates outwards relative to the frame base 2 to a first preset angle, the elastic structure 3 presses against the other, and the frame base 2 limits the rotation of the temple base 1. The first preset angle is greater than 90°.
[0064] Understandably, the frame base 2 and the temple base 1 are rotatably connected, so the temple base 1 can rotate relative to the frame base 2, and the temple base 1 can be rotated outward relative to the frame base 2 at a first preset angle greater than 90°. This makes the glasses suitable for users with larger head circumferences, less likely to damage the temples, and the elastic structure 3 provides a rebound force to the temple base 1, which can clamp the user's head through the temples, improving the wearing stability and comfort of the glasses, and less likely to damage the temples.
[0065] It should be noted that when the temple base 1 is rotated outward relative to the frame base 2 to the first preset angle, the elastic structure 3 has the maximum compression, and at this time the temple has the maximum opening relative to the frame.
[0066] For example, if the first preset angle is 95°, the maximum angle at which the temple flips outward from the folded state relative to the frame is 95°. At this time, the elastic structure 3 has the maximum compression, and the temple base 1 cannot continue to rotate due to the obstruction of the frame base 2.
[0067] In some embodiments, when the temple base 1 is rotated outward relative to the frame base 2 to a second preset angle, the elastic structure 3 can press against the other of the frame base 2 and the temple base 1. The second preset angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 90°.
[0068] In other words, when the temple base 1 is rotated outward to 90° relative to the frame base 2, or before 90°, the temple base 1 and the frame base 2 together compress the elastic structure 3. In this way, the elastic structure 3 generates a rebound force on the temple base 1, so that the two temples of the glasses can clamp the user's head, share part of the weight of the glasses, and prevent the weight of the glasses from being completely applied to the user's nose bridge, thereby improving the comfort of wearing the glasses.
[0069] The second preset angle is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 90°. This means that when the second preset angle is greater than 0° and less than 90°, the temple, driving the temple base 1 outwards to the second preset angle, will continue to flip outwards. If this continues, the temple base 1 and frame base 2 will compress the elastic structure 3, causing the elastic structure 3 to deform and exert a reaction force on the temple base 1. When the second preset angle is equal to 90°, it means that the elastic structure 3 will not be compressed before the temple flips outwards relative to the frame by 90°. When the temple flips outwards relative to the frame by more than 90°, the elastic structure 3 is compressed and generates a rebound force on the temple base 1. In this case, the glasses are suitable for users with larger head circumferences, meaning the temples need to open to a greater extent.
[0070] Of course, the second preset angle can also be set to be greater than 90°. That is, when the temple drives the temple base 1 to flip outward more than 90°, the elastic structure 3 will press against the other of the frame base 2 and the temple base 1. At this time, the second preset angle is less than the first preset angle.
[0071] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The frame base 2 and the temple base 1 are provided with a mounting cavity 111 and an opening 112 communicating with the mounting cavity 111. The elastic structure 3 is disposed in the mounting cavity 111, and part of the elastic structure 3 can extend or retract through the opening 112.
[0072] Understandably, when the elastic structure 3 is not pressing against the other of the frame base 2 and the temple base 1, it is in the state of extending the opening 112. As the temple base 1 flips outward relative to the frame base 2, the elastic structure 3 gradually presses against the other of the frame base 2 and the temple base 1 until the temple base 1 flips outward relative to the frame base 2 to the first preset angle.
[0073] For example, in one specific implementation, refer to Figure 3 The temple base 1 is provided with a mounting cavity 111, so that the elastic structure 3 is installed on the temple base 1, and the elastic structure 3 can press against the frame base 2 as the temple base 1 rotates.
[0074] The elastic structure 3 includes an elastic element 31 and an abutment element 32. The elastic element 31 is located in the mounting cavity 111. The abutment element 32 includes a first part 321 and a second part 322 in a stepped shape. The first part 321 abuts against the elastic element 31 and is confined within the mounting cavity 111. The second part 322 can extend or retract through the opening 112.
[0075] In other words, the abutment 32 is used to abut against the frame base 2, while the elastic element 31 is used to provide a restoring force for the temple base 1. The elastic element 31 can be selected as a spring, a V-shaped spring sheet, or an elastic block.
[0076] For example, refer to Figure 3 The aforementioned elastic element 31 is selected as a spring, and two springs are provided to improve the uniformity of force on the abutment element 32.
[0077] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The frame base 2 includes a frame base body 21 and a first ear plate 22 extending from the frame base body 21. The temple base 1 includes a temple base body 11 and a second ear plate 12 extending from the temple base body 11, the second ear plate 12 being rotatably connected to the first ear plate 22. An elastic structure 3 is disposed on one of the temple base body 11 and the frame base body 21, and is capable of pressing against the other.
[0078] Understandably, the frame base 2 and the temple base 1 are rotatably connected via the first ear plate 22 and the second ear plate 12. The rotating assembly for eyeglasses also includes a pivot 5, which passes through the first ear plate 22 and the second ear plate 12, thereby achieving the rotatable connection between the frame base 2 and the temple base 1.
[0079] When the temple base 1 rotates outward to 90° relative to the frame base 2, a preset gap exists between the temple base body 11 and the frame base body 21. This preset gap allows the temple base 1 to continue rotating outward relative to the frame base 2. The preset gap is set according to a first preset angle; the larger the first preset angle, the larger the preset gap. However, the first preset angle cannot be too large, otherwise the glasses cannot be worn.
[0080] Furthermore, there are two of each of the first ear plate 22 and the second ear plate 12, with the two first ear plates 22 located between the two second ear plates 12, or the two second ear plates 12 located between the two first ear plates 22.
[0081] For example, in one specific implementation, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4The two first earplates 22 are located between the two second earplates 12. At this time, the swivel assembly for the glasses includes two swivels 5, one of which passes through one of the second earplates 12 and one of the first earplates 22, and the other swivel 5 passes through the other second earplate 12 and the other first earplate 22.
[0082] Among them, the rotating shaft 5 is a stepped shaft, which includes a first shaft section 51 and a second shaft section 52. The diameter of the first shaft section 51 is larger than the diameter of the second shaft section 52, and the first shaft section 51 is provided with external threads. At this time, the second ear plate 12 is provided with threaded holes, and the first ear plate 22 is provided with smooth holes. Thus, the stepped shaft is threadedly connected to the second ear plate 12 through the first shaft section 51, while the second shaft section 52 extends into the smooth holes on the first ear plate 22, realizing the rotational connection between the second ear plate 12 and the first ear plate 22.
[0083] Reference Figures 3 to 7 The rotating assembly for the eyeglasses also includes a wiring component 4, which can rotate with the temple base 1. The wiring component 4 has a wiring cavity 41 through which the electrical connector 6 of the eyeglasses passes. The frame base 2 is provided with a wiring channel 212 communicating with the wiring cavity 41.
[0084] Understandably, by setting up a wiring component 4, which can rotate with the temple base 1, and providing a wiring cavity 41 on the wiring component 4, and a wiring channel 212 on the frame base 2, the electrical connector 6 of the eyeglasses can transmit electrical signals and control signals through the wiring component 4 and the wiring channel 212.
[0085] For example, if the temple contains a battery and a mainboard, and the frame contains a camera structure, then the electrical connector 6 serves to connect the camera structure and the mainboard, thus facilitating the mainboard's control over the opening and closing of the camera structure.
[0086] Among them, electrical connector 6 can be selected as FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit).
[0087] Furthermore, referring to Figure 5 The aforementioned frame base 2 also has an electrical cavity 211, which is connected to the wiring channel 212.
[0088] Understandably, by providing an electrical cavity 211 in the frame base 2, and connecting the electrical cavity 211 to the wiring channel 212, the components of the eyeglasses or some electrical connectors 6 can be placed inside the electrical cavity 211.
[0089] The frame base 2 includes a frame base body 21 and a first ear plate 22 extending from the frame base body 21. The above-mentioned wiring channel 212 is formed between the two first ear plates 22. The frame base body 21 has the above-mentioned electrical cavity 211, and a through hole connecting the wiring channel 212 and the electrical cavity 211 is opened on the bottom plate of the electrical cavity 211.
[0090] Furthermore, the rotating assembly for the eyeglasses also includes a rotating shaft 5, the temple base 1 and the frame base 2 are rotatably connected via the rotating shaft 5, and the aforementioned wiring component 4 is coaxial with the rotating shaft 5.
[0091] Understandably, the wiring component 4 is coaxial with the rotating shaft 5, so that the relative position of the wiring component 4 and the rotating shaft 5 remains unchanged when the frame rotates. The wiring component 4 pushes the electrical connector 6 as the frame 1 rotates, so that the electrical connector 6 can move when the frame 1 rotates, thus preventing the electrical connector 6 from being stuck.
[0092] In some embodiments, the temple base 1 has a third ear plate 13, the rotating shaft 5 passes through the third ear plate 13, and the wiring component 4 is provided with a limiting notch 42 extending in its own rotation direction.
[0093] For example, in one specific implementation, the third ear plate 13 extends into the limiting notch 42 and can rotate relative to the wiring component 4 within the limiting notch 42. When the third ear plate 13 abuts against the end of the limiting notch 42 in the extending direction, it can drive the wiring component 4 to rotate.
[0094] Understandably, the aforementioned wiring component 4 does not rotate synchronously with the temple base 1, but rather through the cooperation of the third ear plate 13 and the limiting notch 42. When the third ear plate 13 is not in contact with the end of the limiting notch 42 in the extending direction, the third ear plate 13 rotates relative to the wiring component 4, and the wiring component 4 does not rotate. Only when the third ear plate 13 is in contact with the end of the limiting notch 42 in the extending direction can the third ear plate 13 drive the wiring component 4 to rotate. This makes the rotation angle of the wiring component 4 smaller than the rotation angle of the temple base 1, thus avoiding the wiring component 4 from rotating at a large angle and causing the electrical connector 6 of the eyeglasses to bend significantly.
[0095] There are two third ear plates 13. Correspondingly, the wiring component 4 has a limit notch 42 at both ends in the direction of its own axis. The two third ear plates 13 extend into the two limit notches 42 respectively, so that the wiring component 4 can be stably driven to rotate by the two third ear plates 13.
[0096] Reference Figures 6 to 9The aforementioned frame base 2 is provided with a wiring channel 212, and the aforementioned wiring component 4 is provided with a limiting protrusion 43 extending into the wiring channel 212. The wiring channel 212 has an inner sidewall 212a and an outer sidewall 212b in the left-right direction of the glasses. The inner sidewall 212a and the outer sidewall 212b are used to limit the limiting protrusion 43, thereby limiting the rotation of the wiring component 4. Here, the left-right direction of the glasses is the arrangement direction of the two lenses of the glasses. The two temples of the glasses are located on both sides of the frame in the left-right direction of the glasses. In the left-right direction of the glasses, the inner sidewall 212a is located inside the outer sidewall 212b. At this time, the inner sidewall 212a is relatively close to the other frame base 2 of the glasses.
[0097] In other words, the limiting protrusion 43 cooperates with the inner sidewall 212a and the outer sidewall 212b to limit the rotation of the wiring component 4, and at the same time, it can also serve as a reminder to the user so as to accurately sense the position of the temple base 1, thereby accurately judging whether the temple is completely folded or completely open relative to the frame.
[0098] Specifically, refer to Figure 6 When the temple base 1 is rotated outward relative to the frame base 2 to a first preset angle, the temple base 1 is in a fully open state relative to the frame base 2, the limiting protrusion 43 abuts against the inner sidewall 212a, and the third ear plate 13 abuts against the first end 42a in the extending direction of the limiting notch 42. (Refer to...) Figure 8 When the temple base 1 is fully folded relative to the frame base 2, the limiting protrusion 43 abuts against the outer wall 212b, and the third ear plate 13 abuts against the second end 42b in the direction of the limiting notch 42.
[0099] Thus, when the temple base 1 is opened from its fully folded state relative to the frame base 2, the temple base 1 rotates outward. At this time, the third ear plate 13 disengages from the second end 42b of the limiting notch 42 and moves towards the first end 42a of the limiting notch 42. During this process, the wiring component 4 remains stationary until the third ear plate 13 contacts the first end 42a of the limiting notch 42. Figure 9 As shown. Then, the third ear plate 13 drives the wiring component 4 to rotate, causing the limiting protrusion 43 to disengage from the outer wall 212b. As the temple base 1 continues to rotate, the limiting protrusion 43 contacts the inner wall 212a, preventing the wiring component 4 from rotating, thus preventing the temple base 1 from rotating further. At this point, the angle at which the temple base 1 flips outward relative to the frame base 2 from a fully folded state is the first preset angle, and the temple base 1 is in a fully open state relative to the frame base 2, as shown. Figure 6 As shown.
[0100] When the temple base 1 transitions from a fully open to a fully folded state relative to the frame base 2, the temple base 1 rotates inward. At this time, the third ear plate 13 disengages from the first end 42a of the limiting notch 42 and moves towards the second end 42b of the limiting notch 42. During this process, the wiring component 4 remains stationary until the third ear plate 13 contacts the second end 42b of the limiting notch 42. Figure 7 As shown. Subsequently, the third ear plate 13 drives the wiring component 4 to rotate, causing the limiting protrusion 43 to disengage from the inner sidewall 212a. As the temple base 1 continues to rotate, the limiting protrusion 43 contacts the outer sidewall 212b, and the wiring component 4 cannot rotate, thus preventing the temple base 1 from rotating further. At this time, the angle at which the temple base 1 flips inward relative to the frame base 2 from the fully open state is the first preset angle, and the temple base 1 is in a folded state relative to the frame base 2, as shown. Figure 8 As shown.
[0101] Specifically, the aforementioned frame base 2 includes a frame base body 21 and a first ear plate 22 extending from the frame base body 21. The temple base 1 includes a temple base body 11 and a second ear plate 12 extending from the temple base body 11, the second ear plate 12 being rotatably connected to the first ear plate 22. An elastic structure 3 is disposed on one of the temple base body 11 and the frame base body 21, and is capable of pressing against the other.
[0102] Understandably, the frame base 2 and the temple base 1 are rotatably connected via the first ear plate 22 and the second ear plate 12. The rotating assembly for eyeglasses also includes a pivot 5, which passes through the first ear plate 22 and the second ear plate 12, thereby achieving the rotatable connection between the frame base 2 and the temple base 1.
[0103] The aforementioned first earplate 22 and second earplate 12 are provided in duplicate, with each first earplate 22 located between the two second earplates 12. The eyeglass hinge assembly then includes two hinges 5, one of which passes through one of the second earplates 12 and one of the first earplates 22, while the other hinge 5 passes through the other second earplate 12 and the other first earplate 22.
[0104] Among them, the rotating shaft 5 is a stepped shaft, which includes a first shaft section 51 and a second shaft section 52. The diameter of the first shaft section 51 is larger than the diameter of the second shaft section 52, and the first shaft section 51 is provided with external threads. At this time, the second ear plate 12 is provided with threaded holes, and the first ear plate 22 is provided with smooth holes. Thus, the stepped shaft is threadedly connected to the second ear plate 12 through the first shaft section 51, while the second shaft section 52 extends into the smooth holes on the first ear plate 22, realizing the rotational connection between the second ear plate 12 and the first ear plate 22.
[0105] Furthermore, the temple assembly for eyeglasses includes two third ear plates 13 extending from the temple base body 11. Both third ear plates 13 are located between two first ear plates 22, and the wiring component 4 has a limiting notch 42 at both ends in the direction of its own axis. The two third ear plates 13 are respectively provided corresponding to the two limiting notches 42.
[0106] For example, in another specific implementation, the temple mount has a third ear plate, a pivot shaft passes through the third ear plate, and a wiring component has a limiting notch extending in its own rotation direction. The third ear plate extends into the limiting notch and can drive the wiring component to rotate. Furthermore, when the third ear plate abuts against the end of the limiting notch in the extending direction, it can rotate relative to the wiring component within the limiting notch.
[0107] For example, the third ear plate has a first arc surface extending in the rotation direction of the rotating shaft, and the wiring component has a second arc surface extending in the rotation direction of the rotating shaft. The first arc surface and the second arc surface are in contact with each other and have a large frictional force between them. Thus, when the third ear plate rotates, it also drives the wiring component to rotate.
[0108] There are two third ear plates. Correspondingly, the wiring component has limit notches at both ends in the direction of its own axis. The two third ear plates extend into the two limit notches respectively, so that the wiring component can be stably driven to rotate through the two third ear plates.
[0109] The aforementioned temple base is provided with a wiring channel, and the aforementioned wiring component is provided with a limiting protrusion extending into the wiring channel. The wiring channel has an inner sidewall and an outer sidewall in the left-right direction of the eyeglasses. The inner sidewall and the outer sidewall are used to limit the limiting protrusion, thereby limiting the rotation of the wiring component. Specifically, in the left-right direction of the eyeglasses, the inner sidewall is located inside the outer sidewall, and at this time, the inner sidewall is relatively close to the other frame base of the eyeglasses.
[0110] In other words, the limiting protrusion works in conjunction with the inner and outer walls to limit the rotation of the wiring components, and also serves to remind the user so as to accurately sense the position of the temple mount and thus accurately determine whether the temple is fully folded or fully open relative to the frame.
[0111] Specifically, when the temple base is rotated outward relative to the frame base to a first preset angle, the limiting protrusion abuts against the inner side wall, and the third ear plate abuts against the first end in the direction of the limiting notch extension. When the temple base is fully folded relative to the frame base, the limiting protrusion abuts against the outer side wall, and the third ear plate abuts against the second end in the direction of the limiting notch extension.
[0112] Thus, when the temple base is opened from its fully folded state relative to the frame base, the temple base rotates outward. At this time, the third ear plate drives the wiring component to rotate until the limiting protrusion contacts the inner wall. After the limiting protrusion contacts the inner wall, the wiring component cannot rotate due to the obstruction of the inner wall. Subsequently, the third ear plate rotates relative to the wiring component within the limiting notch until it moves from the second end of the limiting notch to the first end of the limiting notch. At this time, the third ear plate is limited by the first end of the limiting notch and cannot rotate. At this time, the angle at which the temple base flips outward from its fully folded state relative to the frame base is the first preset angle, and the temple base is in a fully open state relative to the frame base.
[0113] When the temple base transitions from a fully open to a fully folded state relative to the frame base, the temple base rotates inward. At this time, the third ear plate drives the limiting member to rotate until the limiting protrusion contacts the outer wall. After the limiting protrusion contacts the outer wall, the wiring component cannot rotate due to the obstruction of the outer wall. Subsequently, the third ear plate rotates relative to the wiring component within the limiting notch until it moves from the first end of the limiting notch to the second end. At this point, the third ear plate is limited by the second end of the limiting notch and cannot rotate. At this time, the temple base rotates inward from the fully open state relative to the frame base at the first preset angle, and the temple base is in a fully folded state relative to the frame base.
[0114] In other embodiments, reference is made to Figures 10 to 13 The frame base 2 is provided with a fourth ear plate 23. The wiring component 4 is provided with a limiting notch 42 extending in its own rotation direction. The fourth ear plate 23 extends into the limiting notch 42 to limit the rotation of the wiring component 4.
[0115] Understandably, the wiring component 4 can rotate with the temple base 1, while the fourth ear plate 23 can limit the rotation of the wiring component 4, thus limiting the rotation of the temple base 1 through the fourth ear plate 23.
[0116] There are two fourth ear plates 23. Correspondingly, the wiring component 4 has a limit notch 42 at both ends in the direction of its own axis. The two fourth ear plates 23 extend into the two limit notches 42 respectively, so that the wiring component 4 can be stably driven to rotate by the two fourth ear plates 23.
[0117] Reference Figures 10 to 13 The temple base 1 is provided with a wiring channel 212, and the wiring component 4 is provided with a limiting protrusion 43 that extends into the wiring channel 212. The wiring channel 212 has a first sidewall 212c and a second sidewall 212d that are arranged opposite to each other. Both the first sidewall 212c and the second sidewall 212d can drive the wiring component 4 to rotate through the limiting protrusion 43, and the rotation directions are opposite.
[0118] When the temple base 1 is rotated outward relative to the frame base 2 to a first preset angle, the first sidewall 212c and the second sidewall 212d are positioned opposite each other in the front-back direction of the glasses, with the second sidewall 212d positioned closer to the end of the temple furthest from the frame. The front-back direction of the glasses is perpendicular to the left-right direction, which is the direction in which the two lenses of the glasses are arranged. The two temples of the glasses are located on either side of the frame in the left-right direction of the glasses.
[0119] In other words, the limiting protrusion 43 cooperates with the first sidewall 212c and the second sidewall 212d to drive the wiring component 4 to rotate. At this time, the wiring component 4 does not rotate synchronously with the temple base 1. Instead, it can only drive the wiring component 4 to rotate after the first sidewall 212c or the second sidewall 212d contacts the limiting protrusion 43. This makes the rotation angle of the wiring component 4 smaller than the rotation angle of the temple base 1, thus avoiding the wiring component 4 from rotating at a large angle and causing the electrical connector 6 of the glasses to bend significantly.
[0120] Specifically, refer to Figure 10 When the temple base 1 is rotated outward relative to the frame base 2 to a first preset angle, the limiting protrusion 43 abuts against the second side wall 212d, and the fourth ear plate 23 abuts against the first end 42a in the extending direction of the limiting notch 42. At this time, the temple base 1 is in a fully open state relative to the frame base 2. (Refer to...) Figure 12 When the temple base 1 is fully folded relative to the frame base 2, the limiting protrusion 43 abuts against the first side wall 212c, and the fourth ear plate 23 abuts against the second end 42b in the direction of the limiting notch 42.
[0121] Thus, when the temple base 1 is folded from its fully open state relative to the frame base 2, the temple base 1 rotates inward. At this time, because the limiting protrusion 43 abuts against the second side wall 212d, the temple base 1 rotates relative to the wiring component 4. At this time, the wiring component 4 remains stationary relative to the frame base 2 until the temple base 1 rotates until the first side wall 212c abuts against the limiting protrusion 43. Figure 11 As shown. The temple base 1 continues to rotate, which in turn drives the wiring component 4 to rotate via the first sidewall 212c and the limiting protrusion 43 until the fourth ear plate 23 contacts the second end 42b extending from the limiting notch 42. At this point, the fourth ear plate 23 limits the wiring component 4, thereby limiting the temple base 1. The temple base 1 then rotates inward relative to the frame base 2 by a first preset angle, as shown. Figure 12 As shown.
[0122] When the temple base 1 is opened from its fully folded state, it rotates outward. At this time, because the limiting protrusion 43 abuts against the first sidewall 212c, the temple base 1 rotates relative to the wiring component 4. Meanwhile, the wiring component 4 remains stationary relative to the frame base 2, until the temple base 1 rotates until the second sidewall 212d abuts against the limiting protrusion 43. Figure 13As shown. The temple base 1 continues to rotate, which in turn drives the wiring component 4 to rotate via the second sidewall 212d and the limiting protrusion 43 until the fourth ear plate 23 contacts the first end 42a extending in the limiting notch 42. At this point, the fourth ear plate 23 limits the wiring component 4, thereby limiting the temple base 1. The temple base 1 then rotates outwards by a first preset angle relative to the frame base 2, as shown. Figure 10 As shown.
[0123] This application also provides a pair of eyeglasses, which include the aforementioned eyeglass hinge assembly. The eyeglasses can be smart glasses such as AR glasses, VR glasses, or MR glasses, or everyday glasses such as sunglasses, prescription glasses, or reading glasses.
[0124] The aforementioned eyeglasses also include temples and frames. The temples are connected to temple base 1, and the frames are connected to frame base 2. The temples can drive temple base 1 to rotate relative to frame base 2, thereby causing the temples to fold inward and open outward relative to the frames.
[0125] The temple has a first receiving cavity, the temple base 1 is disposed in the first receiving cavity, the frame has a second receiving cavity, and the frame base 2 is disposed in the second receiving cavity.
[0126] Specifically, the frame body 21 of the frame holder 2 is located inside the second receiving cavity, while the first ear plate 22 extends outside the second receiving cavity.
[0127] Furthermore, the aforementioned eyeglasses include a frame and two temples, with each temple and frame being rotatably connected via the aforementioned eyeglasses pivot assembly.
