[0039] With the development and popularization of AR smart glasses, there are more and more smart glasses on the market. Currently, most mainstream AR glasses use FPC to connect the temples and the front shell, and then use glue to assemble and fix them. When functional problems occur, it is necessary to heat them first and then remove the glued shell before analyzing the parts. The temples are inconvenient to disassemble, which is inconvenient for users and also causes delays in the production process, creating certain difficulties for project progress and disassembly analysis.
[0040] This application provides an eyeglass frame and smart glasses to solve the problem that the temples of existing smart glasses are inconvenient to remove. The following will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1-6 Please provide an explanation.
[0041] The smart glasses provided in this application embodiment are referenced. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the lens includes a rotating part 100, a temple assembly 200, and a frame assembly 300. The rotating part 100 is provided with a first snap-fit member 110. The temple assembly 200 is rotatably connected to the rotating part 100. The temple assembly 200 is equipped with a first circuit board 210. The frame assembly 300 is provided with a second snap-fit member 310 and a second circuit board 320. When the rotating part 100 is inserted into the frame assembly 300, the first snap-fit member 110 and the second snap-fit member 310 snap together, and the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320 are electrically connected.
[0042] Understandably, in this embodiment, the rotating part 100 includes a pivot shaft, which connects the temple assembly 200 and the frame assembly 300. The rotating part 100 is provided with a first locking member 110, which can cooperate with a second locking member 310 of the frame assembly 300 to achieve a stable connection. The temple assembly 200 is rotatably connected to the rotating part 100, allowing it to rotate around the rotating part 100. A main board can be installed inside the temple assembly 200, with a first circuit board 210 extending from it for transmitting signals and electrical energy. When the rotating part 100 is inserted into the frame assembly 300, the first snap-fit member 110 and the second snap-fit member 310 engage to fix the temple assembly 200 and the rotating part 100 to the frame assembly 300. At this time, the first circuit board 210 of the temple assembly 200 can contact and electrically connect with the second circuit board 320 of the frame assembly 300, so as to realize signal control and power supply for the functional modules on the frame assembly 300 through the second circuit board 320.
[0043] For example, the hinge has threaded holes at both ends, and the temple assembly 200 has a groove or hole at its end that matches the hinge. The temple assembly 200 is connected to the hinge by screws, which pass through the holes in the temple assembly 200 and are screwed into the threaded holes in the hinge. A spring may be designed inside the hinge to allow the temple to open and close elastically. The screws tightly connect the hinge and the temple assembly 200 while allowing the temple to open and close flexibly.
[0044] For example, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the first snap-fit member 110 can be a protrusion, that is, a protruding part is formed on the surface of the rotating part 100. The shape of the protrusion can be a dot, a cylinder, a hemisphere or other shapes. The second snap-fit member 310 is a groove. The shape of the groove matches the protrusion of the first snap-fit member 110 to ensure that the protrusion and the groove can be tightly snapped together.
[0045] The design of the first connector 110 and the second connector 310 allows the temple assembly 200 to be easily assembled and disassembled with the frame assembly 300 without complicated tools and operations, facilitating maintenance and replacement. Furthermore, the first circuit board 210 can be electrically connected to the second circuit board 320 to achieve functional transfer.
[0046] Since the temple assembly 200 is detached from the frame assembly 300 along with the rotating part 100, the temple assembly 200 can be assembled in advance without waiting for other processes to complete the assembly, saving a lot of processing waiting time and labor costs. Because the temples can be directly disassembled, it is convenient for production line employees to assemble and disassemble for analysis. Problematic temples can be kept for further analysis, and a tested temple can be replaced for the next process without affecting the assembly of other machines. If a machine problem occurs during the use of smart glasses, and it is determined to be a temple problem, a spare temple assembly 200 can be quickly and directly replaced, improving the user experience.
[0047] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first circuit board 210 has a metal contact 211 at its connecting part, and the second circuit board 320 has a metal probe 321 at its connecting part. When the rotating part 100 is installed on the frame assembly 300, the metal contact 211 abuts against the metal probe 321.
[0048] It is understood that in this embodiment, the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320 can be connected by a POGOPIN pressing method. The POGOPIN connection method has the characteristics of high reliability, durability and miniaturization, and is especially suitable for portable electronic devices such as smart glasses. For example, the connection part of the first circuit board 210 at the connection position with the second circuit board 320 is provided with a metal contact 211. Correspondingly, the second circuit board 320 is provided with a metal probe 321 that matches the metal contact 211. When the rotating part 100 is installed on the frame assembly 300, the metal probe 321 and the metal contact 211 are tightly abutted, thereby realizing a convenient and reliable circuit connection between the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320.
[0049] The pressing connection between metal contact 211 and metal probe 321 achieves a highly reliable circuit connection, reducing signal interruptions or functional failures caused by poor contact. When the temple assembly 200 needs to be disassembled for repair or replacement, simply separating the rotating part 100 from the frame assembly 300 will automatically disconnect the connection between metal contact 211 and metal probe 321, thus preventing accidental short circuits or damage to the circuit. Due to the separate design of the circuit connection and the mechanical connection, maintenance personnel can quickly disassemble and reinstall the temple assembly 200 without complicated circuit reconnection operations, greatly improving disassembly and repair efficiency.
[0050] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the frame assembly 300 is provided with a support member 330, the connecting part of the first circuit board 210 is installed on the side of the rotating part 100 near the support member 330, and the connecting part of the second circuit board 320 is installed on the side of the support member 330 near the rotating part 100.
[0051] By providing the support member 330, the second circuit board 320 can be fixedly supported and positioned, ensuring that the position of the second circuit board 320 remains stable during the contact between the metal contact 211 and the metal probe 321, preventing displacement of the second circuit board 320 and ensuring a reliable electrical connection between the metal contact 211 and the metal probe 321. Simultaneously, since the connecting portion of the first circuit board 210 is located on the side of the rotating part 100 near the support member 330, the rotating part 100 can also support and fix the first circuit board 210, ensuring a stable connection between the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, an adhesive backing layer (not shown in the figure) is provided between the first circuit board 210 and the rotating part 100, and the first circuit board 210 is mounted to the rotating part 100 through the adhesive backing layer. The adhesive backing layer can be double-sided tape or other types of adhesive materials, which can firmly bond the first circuit board 210 to the rotating part 100, enhance the fixing effect, prevent the position of the first circuit board 210 from loosening during the installation process, and prevent the position of the metal contact 211 from shifting when it abuts against the metal probe 321, thus affecting the circuit connection.
[0053] In an optional embodiment, an adhesive backing layer is provided between the second circuit board 320 and the support member 330. The second circuit board 320 is mounted on the support member 330 through the adhesive backing layer, which can also enhance the fixing effect of the second circuit board 320 and avoid the defect that the position of the second circuit board 320 may become loose during the installation process, resulting in the metal contact 211 failing to accurately abut against the metal probe 321.
[0054] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the frame assembly 300 is provided with a limiting part 340. The limiting part 340 is located on the side of the support member 330 facing away from the rotating part 100. One end of the limiting part 340 abuts against the frame assembly 300, and the other end abuts against the support member 330. This is used to limit the movement of the support member 330 during the connection between the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320, enhance stability, and avoid the defect of unstable circuit board connection caused by the displacement of the support member 330 during long-term use of smart glasses.
[0055] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 5 As shown, there are multiple limiting portions 340 (e.g., two or three), and the multiple limiting portions 340 are spaced apart, which can more effectively ensure the stability of the support member 330. In an optional embodiment, the limiting portions 340 extend along the insertion direction parallel to the rotating portion 100, which can better limit the displacement of the support member 330 during the insertion of the rotating portion 100 into the frame assembly 300.
[0056] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 5 As shown, the support member 330 is designed to be detachable, meaning that the support member 330 can be detachably installed on the frame assembly 300. For example, the frame assembly 300 is provided with fasteners (not shown in the figure), and the support member 330 is provided with mounting holes 331, which are connected to the frame assembly 300 by fasteners.
[0057] Because the support 330 is removable, it can be easily removed from the frame assembly 300 when the second circuit board 320 needs to be replaced or repaired. Fasteners can be screws, bolts, or other similar mechanical connecting elements; the use of fasteners makes the assembly process faster and simpler, reducing assembly time.
[0058] For example, the number of mounting holes 331 can be one or more, and this embodiment does not specifically limit this.
[0059] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the eyeglass frame assembly 300 includes a detachably connected front shell 301 and a rear shell 302, the front shell 301 and the rear shell 302 defining a mounting cavity 303 and a mounting opening 304, a support member 330 located in the mounting cavity 303, and a rotating part 100 passing through the mounting opening 304 to be mounted on the eyeglass frame assembly 300.
[0060] Understandably, the front shell 301 and the rear shell 302 together define an internal space, namely the mounting cavity 303, for accommodating the support member 330, the second circuit board 320, and other functional modules. The mounting opening 304 is used for the insertion and installation of the rotating part 100, and the size and shape of the mounting opening 304 are adapted to the size and shape of the rotating part 100. The front shell 301 and the rear shell 302 are detachable, making the assembly and maintenance of the frame assembly 300 more modular and facilitating quick replacement of parts.
[0061] In one optional embodiment, there are multiple first snap-fit members 110, which are arranged circumferentially around the rotating part 100, and the second snap-fit members 310 are arranged corresponding to the first snap-fit members 110.
[0062] Understandably, the combined action of multiple first snap-fit members 110 and second snap-fit members 310 can distribute the force and reduce the pressure on individual snap-fit points, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the rotating part 100 and the frame assembly 300 and enhancing durability.
[0063] Furthermore, the first snap-fit component 110 may be provided with a guide surface, which is an inclined surface, to facilitate easier alignment of the snap-fit component during connection.
[0064] In one optional implementation, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, there are multiple metal probes 321, and metal contacts 211 are correspondingly arranged with metal probes 321, thereby providing multi-point contact, improving the stability and reliability of electrical connection, and also improving current carrying capacity.
[0065] The eyeglass frame provided in this application embodiment includes a rotating part 100, a temple assembly 200, and a frame assembly 300. The rotating part 100 is provided with a first snap-fit member 110. The temple assembly 200 is rotatably connected to the rotating part 100. A first circuit board 210 is mounted on the temple assembly 200. The frame assembly 300 is provided with a second snap-fit member 310 and a second circuit board 320. When the rotating part 100 is inserted into the frame assembly 300, the first snap-fit member 110 and the second snap-fit member 310 are snapped together, and the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320 are electrically connected. By providing the first snap-fit member 110 and the second snap-fit member 310, the temple assembly 200 can be rotatably mounted on the rotating part 100 first, and then snapped together with the frame assembly 300 as a whole, thus installing the temple assembly 200 onto the frame assembly 300. At the same time, the first circuit board 210 and the second circuit board 320 are electrically connected to achieve functional transmission, improving the convenience of installing and removing the temple assembly 200.
[0066] A second aspect of this application provides a smart glasses system, which includes the eyeglass frame described above.
[0067] The term "smart glasses" as used in this application refers to electronic devices that can be worn on the human eye, including but not limited to commonly available AI glasses, camera glasses, XR glasses, audio glasses, and Bluetooth glasses. Smart glasses can be AR glasses, VR glasses, or MR glasses within the XR category.
[0068] It is understood that if the eyeglass frame has the beneficial effects of the above embodiments, then the smart glasses will have the corresponding beneficial effects of the above embodiments. The specific implementation method can be referred to the above embodiments, and this embodiment will not elaborate on it.
