On the mounting groove, a U-shaped leaf spring is provided between the bottom of the mounting plate and the second mounting groove. Each lifting rod corresponds to a leaf spring. Each lifting rod has a flat groove that is arranged opposite each other. The flat grooves on each lifting rod are all parallel. The upper end of the leaf spring acts on the bottom of the mounting plate. The lower end of each leaf spring has a slot corresponding to each lifting rod. The lower end of each leaf spring acts on the lifting rod through the insertion and cooperation of the flat groove on the corresponding lifting rod through the slot. During the rotation of the first connecting body and the second connecting body, the lifting body is lifted. After the first connecting body is rotated and unfolded or rotated and folded, the continuous force of each leaf spring drives each lifting rod and the lifting body on the lifting rod to return to its original position.

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom of the aforementioned mounting plate is provided with a mounting frame integrally formed with the mounting plate, and the bottom of the mounting plate is provided with a protrusion integrally formed with the mounting plate. The protrusion is provided with through holes corresponding to each lifting rod, and the through holes in the protrusion are arranged in parallel.

The upper end of the leaf spring 33 acts on the bottom of the mounting plate 32, and the lower end of each leaf spring 33 has a slot 331 corresponding to each lifting rod 34. The lower end of each leaf spring 33 acts on the lifting rod 34 through the insertion and cooperation of the slot 331 with the flat groove 341 on the corresponding lifting rod 34. During the rotation of the first connecting body 1 and the second connecting body 2, the lifting body 31 is lifted. After the first connecting body 1 is rotated and unfolded or rotated and folded, the continuous force of each leaf spring 33 drives each lifting rod 34 and the lifting body 31 on the lifting rod 34 to return to the original position.

[0025] The bottom of the mounting plate 32 is provided with a mounting frame 321 integrally formed with the mounting plate 32. The bottom of the mounting plate 32 is provided with a protrusion 322 integrally formed with the mounting plate 32.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the first connecting body 1 is installed and connected to the temple A, and the second connecting body 2 is installed and connected to the frame B. When the temple A is in a folded state, the side of the first connecting body 1 presses against the mounting plate 32, and the first connecting body 1 and the second connecting body 2 are in a perpendicular state. During the rotation and unfolding of the temple A, the temple A rotates from a state parallel to the frame B to a state perpendicular to the frame B. During the rotation of the temple A, the first connecting body 1 pushes against the mounting plate 32, and during the pushing process, the first connecting body 1 drives the lifting body 31 to rise. At the same time, the lifting body 31 drives each lifting rod 34 to rise. When the first connecting body 1 rotates to be collinear with the second connecting body 2, each leaf spring 33 drives each lifting rod 34 to return to its original position by continuously applying force to each lifting rod 34. The setting of the leaf spring 33 effectively solves the problem of the large space occupied by the installation structure of the compression spring in the prior art. By replacing the compression spring structure with the leaf spring 33 structure, the internal installation space is greatly saved. The structure is ingenious, convenient and practical.
