AI Technical Summary
Traditional smart glasses lack an outward-folding spring design in the connection structure between the frame and temples, which makes the temples prone to concentrated stress and rigid damage, such as breakage or deformation, increasing maintenance costs and affecting user satisfaction.
The frame employs a hinge structure, including an internal fixing plate, a support rod, a connecting shaft, and a torsion spring. This allows the support rod to fold outward inside the frame, while the elasticity of the torsion spring prevents rigidity damage to the temples, thus achieving a spring-back function.
This improves the overall performance and appearance reliability of smart glasses, reduces repair or replacement costs, and enhances user satisfaction and trust.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart glasses that can be flipped outwards and spring back, and in particular to a smart glasses that can be flipped outwards and spring back. Background Technology
[0002] Smart glasses are a type of wearable device that integrates sensors, processors, displays, communication modules, and other hardware into traditional glasses, along with corresponding software systems, to achieve various functions such as information display, interactive operation, data collection and analysis. They aim to provide users with a more convenient, efficient, and intelligent visual experience and way to access information.
[0003] In traditional smart glasses designs, the connection between the frame and temples is typically simple and straightforward, lacking redundant outward-folding and spring-loaded design. While this design meets basic wearing and usage needs, in actual use, users may experience excessive outward folding of the temples due to large movements when putting them on or taking them off, or impacts during exercise. In this case, the connection between the frame and temples will bear excessive stress concentrated in a specific area. The lack of an effective cushioning and spring-loaded mechanism to distribute and release this stress makes the temples prone to rigidity failure, resulting in breakage or deformation. This not only increases the cost of repair or replacement for users but may also affect overall performance and appearance, negatively impacting user satisfaction and trust in smart glasses. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, this utility model provides a smart glasses with an outward-folding and spring-back design. It features a simple structure and convenient use. The support rod passes through a slot and enters the internal hinged fixing plate of the frame, allowing the support rod to fold outward at a certain angle. This effectively prevents rigid damage to the temples, such as breakage or deformation. This not only improves the overall performance and appearance reliability and reduces user repair or replacement costs, but also further enhances user satisfaction and trust in the smart glasses.
[0005] To achieve the objectives of this utility model, the following technical solution is adopted:

Preferred embodiments of this utility model are shown in the drawings. However, this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of this utility model.
[0027] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly attached to the other component or there may be an intervening component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intervening component.
[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 7 The present invention provides an embodiment of a smart glasses that can be flipped outward and spring back, comprising a frame 10, a hinge 20 connecting the frame 10, and a temple 30 connected to the end of the hinge 20 away from the frame 10.
[0030] The frame 10 includes a front shell 11 and a rear shell 12 that matches and connects to the front shell 11. The front shell 11 is used to support and mount the lens 13, and the rear shell 12 has a through groove 14 at one end for connecting the hinge 20. The through groove 14 provides sufficient space for the hinge 20 to fold outward.
[0031] The hinge 20 includes an inner fixing plate 21 installed inside the frame 10, a support rod 22 hinged to one end of the inner fixing plate 21, a connecting shaft 23 connecting the inner fixing plate 21 and the support rod 22, and a torsion spring 24 sleeved on the connecting shaft 23; the torsion spring 24 is sandwiched between the inner fixing plate 21 and the support rod 22 to elastically separate the inner fixing plate 21 and the support rod 22. The support rod 22 is used to support the connecting temple 30.
[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the inner fixing plate 21 is sandwiched between the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12; the bearing rod 22 passes through the through groove 14 and enters the inner fixing plate 21 of the frame 10, and the thickness of the bearing rod 22 is less than the opening width of the through groove 14, so that the bearing rod 22 has a certain amount of room for movement inside the through groove 14, allowing the bearing rod 22 to be turned outward at a certain angle.
[0033] In this embodiment, the inner fixing plate 21 is connected to the opposite sides of the cantilever 25 respectively, each cantilever 25 is provided with a first through hole 251, and the inner wall of each cantilever 211 is provided with a fan-shaped notch 252 on one side corresponding to the first through hole 251.
[0034] In this embodiment, the end of the support plate 22 is provided with an embedded frame 26, and the opposite sides of the embedded frame 26 are respectively provided with second through holes 261. On the outer wall of the embedded frame 26, a fan-shaped limiting block 262 is provided on one side corresponding to the second through hole 261.
[0035] Specifically, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the embedding frame 26 is installed between the two cantilever arms 25. The second through hole 261 corresponds to the first through hole 251. The limiting block 262 is embedded inside the notch 252. The embedding frame 26 and the cantilever arm 25 are connected by a connecting shaft 23 passing through the second through hole 261 and the first through hole 251, thereby achieving the hinge connection between the bearing rod 22 and the inner fixing plate 21. The torsion spring 24 is clamped between the embedding frame 26 and the inner fixing plate 21 to elastically separate the embedding frame 26 and the inner fixing plate 21.
[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the central angle of the limiting block 262 is smaller than the central angle of the notch 252, allowing the limiting block 262 to move within the notch 252. This enables the support rod 22 to rotate outward at a certain angle within the through groove 14 around the connecting shaft 23, effectively preventing rigid damage to the temple 30, such as breakage or deformation. This not only improves the overall performance and appearance reliability and reduces user repair or replacement costs, but also further enhances user satisfaction and trust in the smart glasses. When the external force is lost, the torsion spring 24 returns to its original shape and rebounds, thereby driving the support rod 22 and temple 30 to reset.
[0037] In this embodiment, the temple 30 is hinged to the end of the support rod 22 away from the frame 10, so that the temple 30 can be folded and stored.
[0038] The aforementioned smart glasses with outward-folding and spring-back design have a simple structure and are easy to use. The support rod 22 passes through the through groove 14 and enters the internal hinged fixing piece 21 of the frame 10, allowing the support rod 22 to fold outward at a certain angle. This effectively prevents rigid damage to the temples 30, such as breakage or deformation. This not only improves the overall performance and appearance reliability and reduces user repair or replacement costs, but also further enhances user satisfaction and trust in the smart glasses.
[0039] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0040] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
