Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glasses frames, in particular to a connection structure between glasses legs and a head, and in particular to a structure capable of realizing continuous angle adjustment. Background Art

[0002] Chinese Patent Document 1 (CN 116736557 A) discloses a fully enclosed hinge for an eyeglass frame. The hinge connector includes a first rotating portion, a second rotating portion, and an intermediate connecting portion. The first rotating portion and the second rotating portion are rotatably mounted on either side of the intermediate connecting portion. An assembly extension is provided on the first rotating portion, and a corresponding assembly hole is provided on the second rotating portion corresponding to the assembly extension. A limit snap is provided on the assembly extension, and a limit block is provided in the assembly hole. The limit block is snapped into the limit snap. The opening angle of the limit snap is set to limit the adjustment range of the rotation angle. It can be seen that providing a limit snap on the assembly extension will reduce its own mechanical strength. If a limit snap with a larger opening angle is provided, the stability and service life of the overall structure will undoubtedly be reduced.

[0003] Chinese Patent Document 2 (CN 219475933 U) discloses a temple with an elastic friction hinge. This hinge uses an elastic member to drive a push block into contact with the post. During rotation, friction between the push block and the post occurs, enabling angle adjustment. The post is connected to the hinge box via a connector (screw), which can loosen and fall off during rotation. Furthermore, the hinge box has a complex structure, including a receiving slot, a limit slot, and a blocking surface, placing high demands on the strength of the hinge box.

[0004] Chinese Patent Document 3 (CN 221707823 U) discloses a hingeless, screw-less, detachable eyeglass frame structure. A connecting base with a through-hole is provided at one end of the temple, and a mounting base with a toothed groove is provided at the end of the head. The temple is assembled into the through-hole via a rotating shaft and a positioning column. Positioning grooves are provided on the rotating shaft and the positioning column, matching the toothed grooves on the mounting base. A retaining piece provided at the end of the connecting base provides a position limit. This structure has a fixed temple opening angle and relatively many parts.

[0005] Chinese Patent Document 4 (CN 221225205 U) discloses a detachable temple structure for eyeglass frames. The temple's head is connected to a cylindrical structure with a through hole. A rotating member is placed in the through hole. The temple's end is provided with a U-shaped opening that engages the rotating member. Angle adjustment is achieved by using a notch in the cylindrical structure. Similarly, the angle of temple rotation in this structure depends on the size of the notch. As the human head grows and changes in shape, this structure limits angle adjustment. Utility Model Content

[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0034] Spectacle frames mainly include full-frame frames, semi-frame frames, rimless frames and folding frames. They are made of metal, plastic and natural organic materials. Figure 1The structure of a full-frame glasses frame is shown as an example. The frame mainly includes two frames 1, a nose bridge 2 connecting the two frames 1, and a stud 3 symmetrically connected to the outside of the frame 1. The stud 3 is connected to the temple 4. A stud 5 is provided on the frame 1 near the nose bridge 2 and below the nose bridge 2. The tail end of the temple 4 is provided with a foot cover 6. The connection between the stud 3 and the temple 4 is generally a hinge connection, a screw or bolt, and the snap-fit ​​method mentioned in the background art, and the angle rotation is achieved by slotting (setting a notch). The opening angle of the temple in the above-mentioned prior art is limited, or depends on the size of the notch of the component or the opening of the bayonet, that is, it can only be opened to a relatively fixed angle. As the human head shape or hairstyle changes, the temple with a fixed opening angle will cause friction between the human ear and the cranial ear angle of the head, causing discomfort when wearing, which is not in line with the principles of ergonomics.

[0035] In view of this, the present application provides an elastic connection structure for eyeglass frames, see Figure 2 The structure includes a pile head 21, a temple 23, a rotating part 25 with a plum blossom structure arranged at one end of the pile head 23, and a pivot 27 for supporting the rotating part 25, and the pivot 27 is mechanically connected to the temple 23.

[0036] See Figure 3 One end of the pile head 21 is connected to the frame or lens, and the other end of the pile head 21 is connected to the rotating part 25 with a plum blossom structure. The plum blossom structure is composed of adjacent recessed parts 251 and convex parts 252. The recessed parts 251 and the convex parts 252 are transitionally connected. The rotating part 25 has an axial hole 253 for the pivot 27 to pass through.

[0037] See Figure 4 One end of the temple 23 has an extension portion 231 and a free end 232 connected by a bent portion 233. The bent portion 233 defines a through groove 233a for accommodating the rotating portion 25 having a plum blossom structure. The bent portion 233 forms two legs 233b that are bent to form a through hole 233c.

[0038] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 A groove 234 is provided on the inner sides of the extension portion 231 and the free end 232 of the temple 23, and an elastic member 29 is arranged in the groove 234. One end of the elastic member 29 abuts against the end of the groove 234, and the other end of the elastic member 29 abuts or is connected to a ball 30. The ball 30 is confined in the through groove 233a of the curved portion 233. The diameter of the ball 30 is greater than the width of the through groove 233a and cooperates with the rotating portion 25 of the plum blossom structure.

[0039] See Figure 6 The pivot 27 includes a shaft 271 and fixing members 272 connected to both ends of the shaft 271 .

[0040] When assembling the elastic connection structure of the eyeglass frame of the present application, first place the elastic member 29 in the groove 234, then place the ball 30 in the through groove 233a, fix the free end 232 by the screw 28, and then place the rotating part 25 in the through groove 233a, the concave portion 251 of the plum blossom structure abuts against the ball 30, and the shaft 271 of the pivot 27 passes through the through hole 233c and the shaft hole 253 of the rotating part 25, and the fixing member 272 is fixed. The ball 30 generates pressure on the concave portion 251 under the elastic pressure of the elastic member 29. When the rotating part 25 rotates to a certain angle, the ball 30 can abut against the top of the convex portion 252 or the adjacent concave portion 251, thereby realizing the angle adjustment of the temple 23.

[0041] It should be noted that the material of the temples in the above embodiments includes pure titanium and titanium alloys, such as B titanium, and the material of the head includes stainless steel, white copper, etc.

[0042] The elastic member 29 in the above embodiment is preferably a spring.
