Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of eyewear technology, and in particular to a foldable modular smart eyewear. Background Technology
[0002] AR glasses are a type of augmented reality glasses that can overlay virtual images onto real-world scenes, allowing users to experience a blend of virtual reality and the real world.
[0003] Existing smart glasses typically fold the temples via hinges, but the temples themselves cannot be folded in sections. When storing the glasses, the overall folded temples cannot be further reduced in size, causing the glasses to take up a lot of space. This makes them difficult to place due to insufficient space, or they may be squeezed against other items, increasing the risk of damage. Furthermore, the temple length is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the user's actual needs. For users with larger heads, the temples may be too short, resulting in the glasses not fitting securely and easily slipping off. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0029] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.
[0030] Example 1:
[0031] Reference Figures 1-6 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a foldable modular smart glasses, including two sets of frames 1. One side of the frame 1 is hinged to a temple 2. One side of the temple 2 is provided with a support leg 3. One side of the temple 2 is fixed to a frame 4. The inside of the frame 4 is provided with a folding component 5 for folding the support leg 3. One side of the folding component 5 is provided with a guide frame 6. The inner wall of the guide frame 6 is slidably connected to a guide plate 7 for adjusting the length of the support leg 3. One side of the guide plate 7 is fixed to one side of the support leg 3. The inside of the guide plate 7 is provided with a limit component 8.
[0032] The frame 1 in this application has the same structure as the frame and lens in application number 202323185035.0, and is an existing AR glasses that can overlay virtual images onto real-world scenes, allowing users to see a blend of virtual reality and the real world. As this is existing technology, it will not be described in detail here. The temple 2 is hinged to the frame 1 via a hinge, enabling the temple 2 to unfold and fold. The folding component 5 achieves the effect of folding the support 3 to one side of the temple 2, making it easy to store and carry the glasses. Pulling the guide plate 7 and sliding it inside the guide frame 6 achieves the effect of adjusting the length of the support 3, ensuring that the glasses fit the heads of different users better and are suitable for different groups of people.
[0033] The folding assembly 5 includes two sets of first connecting frames 51 fixed to one side of the temple 2. The inner wall of the first connecting frame 51 is rotatably connected to a connecting block 52, and the inner wall of the connecting block 52 is rotatably connected to a second connecting frame 53. One side of the second connecting frame 53 is fixed to one side of the guide frame 6.
[0034] It should be noted that the folding assembly 5 has two sets, which can fold the leg 3 to one side of the temple 2. First, rotate the guide frame 6 to drive the second connecting frame 53 to slide inside the connecting block 52, so that the leg 3 is initially folded by 90°. Then, rotate the connecting block 52 to rotate the inner wall of the first connecting frame 51, which in turn drives the leg 3 to fold again, so that the leg 3 rotates to the desired position. Figure 3 The angle makes it easy to store and carry the glasses.
[0035] The limiting assembly 8 includes multiple limiting grooves 81 formed in the inner cavity of the guide frame 6. A guide rod 82 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide plate 7. A hemispherical protrusion 83 is fixed to the top of the guide rod 82, and the outer side of the guide rod 82 is inserted into the inner wall of the limiting groove 81.
[0036] It should be noted that the limiting groove 81 is arranged horizontally on the guide frame 6. Pressing the hemispherical protrusion 83 causes it to retract into the guide frame 6, and then pulling the guide plate 7 to slide inside the guide frame 6 adjusts the length of the support leg 3, which is suitable for different groups of people.
[0037] Example 2:
[0038] This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.
[0039] Specifically, the inner cavity of the frame 4 has multiple sets of through holes 9, and a hemispherical block 10 is fixed on one side of the guide frame 6, with the outer side of the hemispherical block 10 engaging with the inner wall of the through hole 9.
[0040] Rotating the support leg 3 causes the guide frame 6 to drive the second connecting frame 53 to rotate, so that the support leg 3 and the temple 2 simultaneously support the frame 1, and the hemispherical locking block 10 is inserted into the through hole 9, which enhances the stability of the structure and prevents the support leg 3 from loosening when worn or stored.
[0041] Specifically, a fixing seat 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the frame 4. The inner cavity of the fixing seat 11 is provided with a positioning hole, and the inner wall of the positioning hole is provided with an anti-slip pad.
[0042] When the folding of the outrigger 3 is removed, the guide frame 6 rotates and drives the spherical positioning block 12 to engage in the positioning hole in the fixed seat 11, further improving the stability of the guide frame 6 and the outrigger 3. The engagement of the anti-slip pad and the spherical positioning block 12 enhances the fixing effect of the guide frame 6 and prevents accidental detachment.
[0043] Specifically, two sets of spherical positioning blocks 12 are fixed on one side of the guide frame 6, and the outer side of the spherical positioning blocks 12 is engaged with the inner wall of the fixed seat 11.
[0044] The anti-slip pads improve the engagement between the spherical positioning block 12 and the inner wall of the fixed seat 11, preventing the guide frame 6 from loosening without external force and further improving the stability of the outrigger 3.
[0045] Specifically, a magnetic base 14 is fixed to one side of the temple 2, and a magnetic plate 13 is fixed to one side of the support 3, with one side of the magnetic plate 13 being magnetically connected to one side of the magnetic base 14.
[0046] After the guide frame 6 and the support leg 3 are folded, the magnetic plate 13 and the magnetic base 14 are magnetically attracted. After the guide frame 6 is folded, the support leg 3 is limited and fixed to avoid the problem of the support leg 3 becoming loose after folding.
[0047] Specifically, a limiting disk 15 is fixed to the outer side of the guide rod 82, and the outer side of the limiting disk 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide plate 7.
[0048] The limiting plate 15 is disc-shaped. The limiting plate 15 limits the guide rod 82, restricts the sliding distance of the guide rod 82, and improves the stability of the guide rod 82 in limiting the guide plate 7.
[0049] Specifically, a spring 16 is fixed to the inner wall of the guide plate 7, and the top of the spring 16 is fixed to the bottom of the limiting plate 15.
[0050] Pressing the hemispherical protrusion 83 causes it to retract into the guide frame 6, which in turn causes the limiting plate 15 to slide inside the guide plate 7. The movement of the limiting plate 15 causes the spring 16 to contract, which in turn pulls the guide plate 7 to slide inside the guide frame 6, adjusting the length of the support leg 3. After the length of the support leg 3 is adjusted, the elasticity of the spring 16 pushes the limiting plate 15 and the guide rod 82 to reset, so that the guide rod 82 is inserted into the limiting groove 81, limiting the guide plate 7 and the guide frame 6, and improving the stability of the guide plate 7 and the support leg 3 after the length adjustment.
[0051] Example 3:
[0052] This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.
[0053] Specifically, a nose pad 17 is provided between the two sets of frames 1, and a fixing bracket 18 is fixed to one side of the nose pad 17.
[0054] The nose pad 17 supports the glasses on the bridge of the nose, providing wearing comfort, and is located between the two sets of frames 1.
[0055] Specifically, a connecting plate 19 is fixed to one side of the frame 1, and the outer side of the connecting plate 19 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 18 via a rotating shaft.
[0056] Rotating the frame 1 causes the connecting plate 19 to rotate, allowing both frames 1 to be folded and rotated, further reducing the area occupied by the glasses during use and making them easier to store later.
[0057] Specifically, a magnetic block 20 is fixed to one side of the nose pad 17, and one side of the magnetic block 20 is magnetically connected to one side of the connecting plate 19.
[0058] It should be noted that the connecting plate 19 is made of ferrous magnetic material and can be magnetically connected with the magnetic block 20. When using the glasses, rotating the frame 1 opens both sets of frames 1, allowing the connecting plate 19 to magnetically connect with the magnetic block 20, thereby improving the stability of the frame 1 when it is open.
[0059] In use, the temple 2 is hinged to the frame 1, allowing the temple 2 to unfold and fold relative to the frame 1. When storing the glasses, rotate the temple 2 around the hinge until it fits snugly against the frame 1 to fold it. To unfold, simply reverse the process: first, rotate the guide frame 6 to slide the second connecting frame 53 within the connecting block 52, causing the temple 3 to fold initially at 90°. Then, rotate the connecting block 52 along the inner wall of the first connecting frame 51, again folding the temple 3 to a specific angle, allowing it to fold to one side of the temple 2 for easy storage and carrying. The magnetic plate 13 and magnetic base 14 magnetically attract and fix the temple 3 in place. To open the temple... At time 3, rotating the support leg 3 causes the guide frame 6 to drive the second connecting frame 53 to rotate, allowing the hemispherical locking block 10 to engage with the through hole 9 of the frame 4. When the guide frame 6 rotates, the spherical positioning block 12 engages with the positioning hole of the fixed seat 11. The anti-slip pad enhances the engagement effect and further improves the stability of the support leg 3. Pressing the hemispherical protrusion 83 causes it to drive the guide rod 82 and the limiting plate 15 into the guide frame 6, causing the spring 16 to retract. At this time, the guide plate 7 can be pulled to slide within the guide frame 6 to adjust the length of the support leg 3. After adjustment, the elastic action of the spring 16 pushes the limiting plate 15 and the guide rod 82 to reset. The guide rod 82 is inserted into the limiting groove 81 to fix the length of the support leg 3.
[0060] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
