[0006] In the frame assembly of this application, the mounting groove includes a mounting channel, a first limiting groove, and a second limiting groove. The mounting channel extends along the first direction, and the first limiting groove and the second limiting groove are respectively connected to both ends of the mounting channel.
[0007] The bracket includes a snap-fit component, a first connector, and a second connector. One end of the first connector and the second connector is detachably connected to the nose pad, and the other end of the first connector and the second connector is connected to the snap-fit component.
[0008] The snap-fit component is inserted into the installation channel, the end of the first connector near the snap-fit component is inserted into the first limiting groove, and the end of the second connector near the snap-fit component is inserted into the second limiting groove.
[0009] In the frame assembly of this application, in the first direction, the first limiting groove is recessed into the inner side of the frame to a first preset depth, and the second limiting groove is recessed into the inner side of the frame to a second preset depth.
[0010] In the frame assembly of this application, the support can deform under external force and return to its shape after the external force disappears.
[0011] In the frame assembly of this application, the bracket is an elastic bracket. When the bracket is in its unassembled natural state, the distance between the first limiting groove and the second limiting groove in the first direction is L1, and the distance between the end of the first connector near the snap-fit member and the end of the second connector near the snap-fit member in the first direction is L2; wherein, L2 is greater than L1.
[0012] In the frame assembly of this application, L2 is 0.2 mm to 2 mm longer than L1.
[0013] In the frame assembly of this application, a sleeve is fitted onto one end of the first connector near the snap-fit member and one end of the second connector near the snap-fit member. The sleeve is one or more of resin, carbon fiber, and silicone materials.
[0014] In the eyeglass frame assembly of this application, the first connector includes an integrally formed connecting portion, a main body portion, and a mounting portion connected in sequence. The connecting portion is located at one end of the first connector near the snap-fit member, and the mounting portion is located at the other end of the first connector away from the snap-fit member. The connecting portion is fixedly connected to the snap-fit member, and the mounting portion is used for detachable connection with the nose pad. The main body portion is disposed between the connecting portion and the mounting portion, and the included angle between the main body portion and the connecting portion is in the range of 115°-155°.
[0015] In the frame assembly of this application, the connecting portion is fitted with the sleeve; taking the plane where the connecting portion contacts the snap-fit as a reference plane, the length of the connecting portion in the direction perpendicular to the reference plane is equal to or less than the length of the sleeve in the direction perpendicular to the reference plane.
[0016] In the frame assembly of this application, the mounting channel is provided with a first stop and a second stop at intervals on both sides along the second direction, and the snap-fit member abuts against the first stop and the second stop respectively.

[0019] The eyeglass frame assembly of this utility model includes an eyeglass frame, nose pads, and a bracket. During installation, the nose pads are first fixed to the bracket using screws or clips. Then, the insertion part of the bracket is aligned with the mounting groove of the eyeglass frame. External force is applied to push the bracket, causing it to embed into the mounting groove and fit tightly, enhancing the connection stability between the bracket and the eyeglass frame. This secures the nose pad assembly, formed by the nose pads and the bracket, to the eyeglass frame. When it is necessary to disassemble or replace the nose pads, external force is applied to pull the bracket 3 out of the mounting groove, separating the nose pad assembly from the eyeglass frame. Then, depending on the specific connection method between the nose pads and the bracket (such as clips, threads, etc.), the nose pads can be removed from the bracket and replaced, thereby improving the convenience of disassembling or replacing the nose pads.

These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this utility model, "first" information can also be referred to as "second" information, and similarly, "second" information can also be referred to as "first" information.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a glasses frame assembly, which includes a glasses frame 1, a nose pad 2 and a bracket 3. The nose pad 2 is detachably connected to the bracket 3. The glasses frame 1 is provided with a mounting groove 4 extending along a first direction X. The bracket 3 is detachably assembled into the mounting groove 4 and is interference-fitted with the mounting groove 4 so that the bracket 3 can remain stable when assembled into the glasses frame 1.
[0032] It should be noted that the frame assembly of this embodiment has a first direction X and a second direction Y. The first direction X is the left-right direction of the frame 1 when the glasses are worn, and the second direction Y is the front-back direction of the frame 1 when the glasses are worn. The nose pad 2 and the bracket 3 are arranged along the second direction Y on the side of the frame 1 facing the face.
[0033] The frame 1 is made of lightweight materials such as titanium alloy and aluminum alloy, which is not only lightweight but also has high strength and toughness. It will not cause pressure even after wearing for a long time and is not easy to break or be damaged. The bottom of the frame 1 is provided with a mounting groove 4, and the length direction of the mounting groove 4 is the same as the first direction X.
[0034] The nose pads 2 are made of silicone, plastic, or rubber. There are two nose pads 2. When the glasses are worn, the two nose pads 2 fit against the left and right sides of the bridge of the nose respectively, which can reduce the pressure on the bridge of the nose when wearing glasses for a long time.
[0035] The bracket 3 is a nose pad bracket used to connect the nose pad 2 so that the nose pad 2 can be stably supported on the bridge of the nose. In related technologies, the bracket 3 is fixed to the frame 1 by screws, clips or integral molding. However, because the nose pad 2 is relatively large, it is not easy to directly remove the nose pad 2 from the bracket 3 and replace it.
[0036] Based on the above technical solution, this embodiment designs the bracket 3 and the frame 1 as separate structures. During installation, the nose pad 2 is first fixed to the bracket 3 by screws or clips. Then, the insertion part of the bracket 3 is aligned with the mounting groove 4 of the frame 1. Subsequently, external force is applied to push the bracket 3 so that the bracket 3 is embedded in the mounting groove 4 and connected with the mounting groove 4 by interference fit, which enhances the connection stability between the bracket 3 and the frame 1. The nose pad assembly formed by the nose pad 2 and the bracket 3 is fixed on the frame 1. When it is necessary to disassemble or replace the nose pad 2, external force is first applied to pull the bracket 3 out of the mounting groove 4, so that the nose pad assembly is separated from the frame 1. Then, according to the specific connection method of the nose pad 2 and the bracket 3 (such as clips, threads, etc.), the nose pad 2 is removed from the bracket 3 and replaced, thereby improving the convenience of disassembling or replacing the nose pad 2.
[0037] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting groove 4 includes a mounting channel 40, a first limiting groove 41, and a second limiting groove 42. The mounting channel 40 extends along the first direction X, and the first limiting groove 41 and the second limiting groove 42 are respectively connected to the two ends of the mounting channel 40. The bracket 3 includes a snap-fit member 30, a first connecting member 31, and a second connecting member 32. One end of the first connecting member 31 and the second connecting member 32 is detachably connected to the nose pad 2, and the other end is connected to the snap-fit member 30.
[0038] The first connector 31 and the second connector 32 are detachably connected to the snap-fit connector 30 by means of snaps, screws or the like; or the first connector 31, the second connector 32 and the snap-fit connector 30 can be integrally formed.
[0039] Furthermore, in this application, when assembling the bracket 3 with the mounting groove 4, the snap-fit member 30 of the bracket 3 is inserted into the mounting channel 40, the first connector 31 of the bracket 3 is inserted into the first limiting groove 41, and the second connector 32 of the bracket 3 is inserted into the second limiting groove 42.
[0040] Specifically, the mounting channel 40 extends along the first direction X (i.e., the left and right direction of the frame 1) to provide assembly space for the bracket 3. The first limiting groove 41 and the second limiting groove 42 are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the mounting channel 40 to limit the movement of the bracket 3 in the up and down direction after assembly, so as to ensure the stability of the assembly.
[0041] The bracket 3 includes a snap-fit member 30, a first connector 31, and a second connector 32. The snap-fit member 30 is the main body of the bracket 3. The snap-fit member 30 is inserted into the mounting channel 40 and is interference-fitted with the mounting channel 40 to achieve the connection and fixation between the bracket 3 and the frame 1.
[0042] Specifically, after the bracket 3 is inserted into the mounting slot 4, the end of the first connector 31 near the snap-fit 30 is accommodated in the first limiting slot 41, and the end of the second connector 32 near the snap-fit 30 is accommodated in the second limiting slot 42. The first limiting slot 41 and the second limiting slot 42 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the snap-fit 30, and the first limiting slot 41 and the second limiting slot 42 have a certain width in the first direction X, so that the first connector 31 can be snapped and fixed in the first limiting slot 41, and the second connector 32 can be snapped and fixed in the second limiting slot 42.
[0043] In one embodiment, in the first direction X, the first limiting groove 41 is recessed into the inner side of the frame 1 to a first preset depth (not shown in the figure), and the second limiting groove 42 is recessed into the inner side of the frame 1 to a second preset depth.
[0044] Specifically, the first limiting groove 41 is recessed into the inner side of the frame 1 (i.e., the side closer to the wearer's eyes) to a first preset depth, based on the original groove opening, and the second limiting groove 42 is recessed into the inner side of the other side of the frame 1 to a second preset depth, based on the original groove opening. The recessed structure can further play a limiting role and prevent the nose pad assembly from becoming loose.
[0045] In one embodiment, the support 3 can deform under the action of external force and return to its shape after the external force disappears.
[0046] Specifically, the support 3 is an elastic support, which can be made of materials with elastic recovery properties such as shape memory alloys, highly elastic plastics, or rubber. This allows the support 3 to deform under external force to absorb stress, and to return to its original shape after the external force is removed. This reduces fatigue damage to the support 3 after long-term use and enhances the stability and durability of the support 3 structure. During installation, applying appropriate external force to deform the support 3 makes it easier to remove or install the support 3 from the frame 1.
[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, when the bracket 3 is in its unassembled natural state, the distance between the first limiting groove 41 and the second limiting groove 42 in the first direction X is L1, and the distance between the first connecting member 31 and the second connecting member 32 in the first direction X is L2; wherein, L2 is greater than L1.
[0048] Specifically, based on the elastic recovery performance of the bracket 3, this embodiment differs in the dimensions of the mounting groove 4 and the bracket 3. For example... Figure 4As shown, the distance between the first limiting groove 41 and the second limiting groove 42 is L1, where L1 is the width of the mounting groove 4 in the first direction X. The distance between the end of the first connector 31 near the snap-fit 30 and the end of the second connector 32 near the snap-fit 30 is L2, where L2 is the structural length of the bracket 3. Since L2 is greater than L1, the bracket 3 has a certain elasticity, and an external force can be applied to bend the bracket 3 to a certain extent, so that the structural length of the bracket 3 after deformation is equal to or less than L1, so that the bracket 3 can be inserted into the mounting groove 4 and then released. The bracket 3 can be used to restore its shape by utilizing its elastic recovery ability, so that the bracket 3 can be tightly abutted against the side wall of the mounting groove 4, thereby achieving a stable connection between the bracket 3 and the frame 1.
[0049] In one embodiment, L2 is 0.2 mm to 2 mm longer than L1. Within this size range, the bracket 3 deforms, resulting in a relatively stable connection with the mounting groove 4. It is understood that if the length of L2 exceeding L1 is more than 2 mm, the bracket 3 requires significant deformation to fit into the mounting groove 4, and disassembly also requires considerable force, leading to operational inconvenience. Conversely, if the length of L2 exceeding L1 is less than 0.2 mm, the deformation and rebound force of the bracket 3 after assembly with the frame 1 are minimal, resulting in a loose assembly and easy detachment.
[0050] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, a sleeve 5 is fitted onto one end of the first connector 31 near the snap-fit 30 and one end of the second connector 32 near the snap-fit 30. The sleeve 5 is injection molded onto the first connector 31 and the second connector 32. The sleeve 5 has good wear resistance and can resist the impact and friction during the assembly and disassembly of the bracket 3 and the frame 1, reducing the wear of the bracket 3 on the frame 1.
[0051] Optionally, the material of the socket 5 may be one or more of resin, carbon fiber, and silicone.
[0052] Preferably, the socket 5 also has a certain degree of elasticity, and the material of the socket 5 is silicone, TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) or TPE (thermoplastic elastomer).
[0053] In another embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the first connector 31 includes an integrally formed connecting portion 311, a main body portion 312, and a mounting portion 313 connected in sequence. The connecting portion 311 is located at the end of the first connector 31 near the snap-fit member 30, and the mounting portion 313 is located at the other end of the first connector 31 away from the snap-fit member 30. The connecting portion 311 is fixedly connected to the snap-fit member 30, and the mounting portion 313 is used for snap-fit assembly with the nose pad 2. The main body portion 312 is disposed between the connecting portion 311 and the mounting portion 313. There is a certain included angle between the main body portion 312 and the connecting portion 311, with the angle ranging from 115° to 155°. Because there is a certain included angle between the main body portion 312 and the connecting portion 311, the sliding of the sleeve 5 along the first connector 31 can be avoided, thereby resisting the impact and friction during the assembly and disassembly of the bracket 3 and the frame 1, and reducing the wear of the bracket 3 on the frame 1.
[0054] Optionally, in one embodiment, the included angle is 135°.
[0055] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a sleeve 5 is fitted onto the connecting part 311. Taking the plane where the connecting part 311 contacts the snap-fit member 30 as the reference plane, the length of the connecting part 311 in the direction perpendicular to the reference plane is equal to or less than the length of the sleeve 5 in the direction perpendicular to the reference plane. Therefore, when the sleeve 5 is assembled onto the connecting part 311, the limiting effect of the angle between the main body 312 and the connecting part 311 is superimposed, which better limits the movement of the sleeve 5 and prevents it from sliding along the first connecting member 31. This helps resist the impact and friction forces during the assembly and disassembly of the bracket 3 and the frame 1, reducing wear on the frame 1 caused by the bracket 3.
[0056] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the installation channel 40 is provided with a first stop 43 and a second stop 44 at intervals on both sides along the second direction Y, and the snap-fit member 30 abuts against the first stop 43 and the second stop 44 respectively.
[0057] Specifically, the first stop 43 and the second stop 44 are matched with the snap-fit member 30, and the two stop portions have shapes and sizes that match the snap-fit member 30. During assembly, the snap-fit member 30 is inserted into the mounting channel 40 of the frame 1. As the snap-fit member 30 is inserted, it gradually contacts and abuts against the first stop 43 and the second stop 44 to securely fix the bracket 3 to the frame 1 and prevent the bracket 3 from falling out of the mounting groove 4.
[0058] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first stop part 43 and the second stop part 44 are integrally formed with the frame 1.
[0059] Secondly, this utility model embodiment also provides a smart glasses, including a lens, temples and a frame assembly, wherein the lens is installed in the frame 1 and the temples are connected to the end of the frame 1.
[0060] Specifically, the smart glasses include two temples, which are rotatably connected to the left and right ends of the frame 1 via a hinge structure. When worn, the frame 1 is placed in front of the eyes and the temples are placed on the ears. An optical engine for emitting light beams can be set inside the frame 1. The optical engine emits light beams onto the waveguides of the lenses, and the light beams on the waveguides form an image that is transmitted to the user's eyes, thereby realizing the display function.
