AI Technical Summary
Rimless glasses lack a stable and cost-effective way to fix lenses and temples. Existing fixing methods are prone to loosening or increasing costs, and are not easy to position.
The design uses a tapered sleeve to fix the lens. By providing a mating hole on the lens, an expansion component is used to engage with a fastener. The tapered section of the fastener squeezes the expansion component to expand it and make an interference fit with the inner wall of the lens, providing a lasting frictional locking force.
This achieves stable fixation between the lens and the connector, preventing loosening, reducing costs, facilitating disassembly and replacement, and improving reliability.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to optical technology field, concretely relates to a kind of glasses of fixing lens by taper sleeve. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a kind of glasses, frameless glasses are more fashionable than framed glasses, and the lens edges can be cut into various line patterns and decorated, with more color options. Frameless glasses are lighter and more comfortable to wear, greatly relieving the pressure on the nose bridge and eyes, and without the constraints of the frame, the wearer's field of view is wider, so they are favored by young glasses wearers.
[0003] Frameless glasses lack a frame to secure the lenses, so securing the lenses is a top priority. The common way is to use screws to fix the lenses by drilling holes in the lens edges and directly fixing the temples and nose pads on the lenses with micro screws (usually 0.8-1.2mm). The disadvantage is that the screws will loosen over time and need to be tightened regularly. Or use a buckle, the lens edge is designed with a precise slot, and the temple is locked by inserting the elastic buckle. There is also a way of using glue to bond. However, the above methods more or less increase the cost, and using glue directly is not easy to position and can easily damage the overall integrity of the glasses.

[0013] The diameter of the mating hole is between the diameter of the expansion assembly in the unexpanded state and the diameter of the expansion assembly in the expanded state.
[0014] The expansion assembly is a tapered sleeve.
[0015] The expansion assembly comprises a base fixedly connected to the connecting member, and the base is provided with at least two elastic petals distributed in the circumferential direction, and a gap allowing radial deformation is formed between each elastic petal.
[0016] The fastener is a bolt, and the bolt is provided with an outer thread at a front end surface thereof, and a tapered section at a rear end thereof, and the diameter of the tapered section gradually increases along the axial direction of the fastener towards the rear end.
[0017] The end of the fastener is provided with a tool mating groove.

[0034] Meanwhile, the present application can be used for the connection of lens and connecting piece of frameless or half-frame glasses, foot silk is used in the present application.
[0035] Referring to Figure 2 , lens 100, one end is equipped with matching hole, matching hole is drilled in both ends of lens in advance by drilling, the diameter of the hole is generally between the diameter of expansion assembly 400 before expansion and the diameter of expansion assembly 400 after expansion, i.e. slightly larger than the size of expansion assembly before expansion, preferably the maximum diameter of fastener plus the thickness of elastic petal, so that fastener can be completely screwed into the internal thread hole of expansion assembly.
[0036] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the foot wire 200 is made of metal material such as titanium alloy, and is provided with an expansion assembly 400 on the side facing the lens 100, which can be inserted into the matching hole, see Figure 5 , the expansion assembly 400 has an axially arranged internal threaded hole, which can be a through or non-through design. The expansion assembly is welded and fixed with the foot wire to ensure the fixing reliability of the two. In some embodiments, a fastener can also be used to threadedly connect the expansion assembly and the foot wire, and the fixing of the three is completed.
[0037] Referring to Figure 6 and Figure 8 , the fastener 500 is provided with an external thread 510 matched with the internal threaded hole at the front end, and a tapered section 520 at the rear end, wherein the diameter of the tapered section 520 gradually increases along the axial direction of the fastener 500. When the fastener 500 is tightened, the tapered section 520 extrudes the rear end of the expansion assembly 400, forcing the expansion assembly 400 to expand outward and form an interference fit with the inner wall of the matching hole.
[0038] In this embodiment, the expansion assembly 400 is a tapered sleeve, that is, the expansion assembly 400 includes a base 410 fixedly connected with the foot wire 200, and the base 410 is provided with at least two elastic petals 420 distributed in the circumferential direction, and a gap 430 allowing radial deformation is formed between each elastic petal 420.
