An elastomeric clip structure for eyeglasses

Abstract

An elastomeric clip-on structure for eyeglasses is disclosed. The clip is made of a soft elastomeric material. The clip includes a mounting groove corresponding to the lens position on the frame, a mounting end face that conforms to the frame surface, and a display end face opposite to it. The mounting end face has several first grooves spaced apart. The gaps between the first grooves guide the mounting end face to deform and conform to the contour of the frame surface. An additional lens is fitted into the mounting groove. When the clip bends and deforms to conform to the frame surface contour, the gaps with the first grooves provide a buffer space for deformation, thus avoiding bulges, wrinkles, or other undesirable conditions on the display end face that would affect its visual appearance due to direct bending and deformation of the clip. With this design, the elastically deformable clip can adapt to different frame styles and contour curvatures, allowing for immediate use with a perfect, seamless fit. It naturally returns to its shape after removal, overcoming the problems of traditional clips that require one-to-one fitting or do not fit properly.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temple structure technology, specifically to an elastic clip structure for eyeglasses. Background Technology

[0002] Additional lenses (such as those for myopia glasses, sunglasses, or magnifying glasses) can be attached to the clip-on frame, and then the additional lenses can be detachably mounted to the frame through a clamping structure, thereby enabling temporary eyeglass fitting, lens replacement, or functional expansion scenarios.

[0003] In order to adapt to the contour of the frame, especially since the curvature of different frame styles is often different, the traditional clip-on structure needs to be sized and matched during the mold design stage to make the clip fit perfectly without any abrupt gaps, unevenness, or other issues.

[0004] This means that a clip-on lens can usually only be fitted to one frame, limiting its application. Moreover, the current eyewear market is increasingly focused on differentiated and personalized aesthetics; glasses and clip-on lenses no longer just need to meet optical requirements, but also need to satisfy the wearer's needs for matching makeup, clothing, and occasions.

[0005] Traditional one-to-one clips cannot meet the above requirements. Mismatched fitting will only cause significant visual differences such as gaps between the frame and the clip. Therefore, the clip structure needs to be improved so that one clip can fit a variety of frames, especially to fit the curvature of different frames, making the fitting more integrated and beautiful. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned technologies, this invention provides an elastomeric clip structure for eyeglasses.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an elastic clip structure for eyeglasses, including a clip that is detachably fixed to the frame of the eyeglasses. The clip is made of a soft elastic material. The clip includes a mounting groove corresponding to the position of the lens on the frame, a mounting end face that fits the surface of the frame, and a display end face opposite to it. Several first grooves are provided at intervals on the mounting end face. The gaps between the several first grooves guide the mounting end face to deform and fit the contour of the frame surface. An additional lens is fitted in the mounting groove.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the plurality of first grooves are arranged vertically, horizontally, or diagonally relative to the mirror frame.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that at least one pair of first magnets are provided on the frame, and a second magnet is provided on the clip corresponding to the position and number of the first magnets.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that four first magnets are symmetrically arranged at the head and bridge of the nose of the frame.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that the first magnet is embedded in or buried within the frame, and the second magnet is embedded in or buried within the clip.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that the glasses also include temples made of a soft elastomer material. On the side of the temple that contacts the wearer's skin, there are several second grooves spaced apart. The gaps between these second grooves guide the temples to deform and conform to the wearer's surface contour, or guide the temples to deform into a rolled-up shape.

[0013] A further feature of this invention is that the temples are detachably and fixedly connected to the frame.

[0014] Further features of this invention: The temple includes a mounting portion adjacent to the frame and a connecting end at the other end. The mounting portion is provided with a post with a diameter greater than the thickness of the temple. The post head of the frame is provided with a slot that matches the contour of the temple mounting portion. The slot opening faces vertically downward. The post enters the slot through the slot opening and supports the frame. The connecting ends of a pair of temples on the frame are respectively provided with a third magnet, a snap fastener structure, or a Velcro structure that attracts each other.

[0015] A further feature of this invention is that the soft elastomer material is silicone rubber.

[0016] A further feature of this invention is that the soft elastomer material is soft silicone or rubber.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are shown in the appendix to the specification. Figure 1-3 As shown, this application utilizes a soft, elastomer material to create the clip, and employs a structural design with several spaced-apart first grooves. When the clip bends and deforms to conform to the contour of the frame surface, the gaps in the first grooves provide a buffer space for deformation, thus preventing bulges, wrinkles, and other undesirable appearances on the display surface caused by direct bending and deformation of the clip. With this design, the elastically deformable clip can adapt to different frame styles and contours, allowing for immediate use with a perfect, seamless fit. After removal, it naturally returns to its original shape, overcoming the problems of traditional clips that require one-to-one fitting or misalignment during assembly.

[0018] Moreover, compared to rigid materials, the clips made of soft, elastomeric material offer advantages such as drop resistance, scratch resistance, impact resistance, crack resistance, and flexibility. When storing or traveling, consumers don't need separate containers for the clips; they can be bent and folded to seamlessly integrate into the remaining space of other items, effectively improving storage convenience. They are also safer and more convenient for daily use, effectively preventing common issues such as being crushed by heavy objects, people, or falling.

[0019] In further design, the display end face can be customized with patterns and colors. The proportion of the clip material can also be adjusted to make the clips present various colors or gradient colors, or set to transparent or semi-transparent effects. Combined with the arrangement, shape and texture design of the first groove on the mounting end face, it reflects the visual effect of the combination of the display end face and the mounting end face.

[0020] Further design can be made to change the way the clips are attached by adjusting the position and number of the first and second magnets. In particular, by using magnets symmetrically placed on both sides of the frame, the clips of the soft elastomer can be fully unfolded, further avoiding bulges, gaps, and wrinkles.

[0021] Further design considerations, such as those included in the instruction manual. Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the temples are also designed to be made of detachable soft elastomer material, allowing for personalized assembly and display. This also enables the temples to better conform to the wearer's skin contours and to be fully rolled up, unlike traditional folding, thus creating a new way of storage.

[0022] In further design, the clips and temples are preferably made of soft silicone or rubber. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the technical solution and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solution of this application will be described in a clearer and more complete manner below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some embodiments of this application, and are only used to explain this application, not to limit this application. It should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to this application are shown in the accompanying drawings. Other related parts can be referred to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments and technical features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, an elastic clip 1 structure for eyeglasses includes a clip 1 that is detachably fixed to the eyeglass frame 2. The clip 1 is made of a soft elastomer material. The clip 1 includes a mounting groove 11 corresponding to the position of the lens on the frame 2, a mounting end face 12 that fits against the surface of the frame 2, and a display end face 13 opposite to it. The mounting end face 12 is provided with a plurality of first grooves 14 at intervals. The gaps between the plurality of first grooves 14 guide the mounting end face 12 to deform and fit the contour of the surface of the frame 2. An additional lens is fitted in the mounting groove 11.

[0029] The plurality of first grooves 14 are arranged vertically, horizontally, or diagonally relative to the mirror frame 2.

[0030] The frame 2 is provided with at least one pair of first magnets 21, and the clip 1 is provided with second magnets 15 corresponding to the positions and quantities of the first magnets 21. The clip 1 is attracted to the frame by the second magnets 15 and conforms to the bending and deformation of the frame surface.

[0031] The frame 2 has four first magnets 21 symmetrically arranged at the head and bridge of the nose.

[0032] The first magnet 21 is embedded in or buried in the frame 2, and the second magnet 15 is embedded in or buried in the clip 1.

[0033] The glasses also include temples 3, which are made of soft elastomer material. On the side of the temples 3 that contacts the wearer's skin, there are several second grooves 31 spaced apart. The gaps between the second grooves 31 guide the temples 3 to deform and conform to the wearer's surface contour, or guide the temples 3 to deform into a rolled-up shape.

[0034] The temple 3 is detachably and fixedly connected to the frame 2.

[0035] The temple 3 includes a mounting part adjacent to the frame 2 and a connecting end at the other end. The mounting part is provided with a post 32 with a diameter greater than the thickness of the temple 3. The post head of the frame 2 is provided with a slot 22 that matches the contour of the mounting part of the temple 3. The opening of the slot 22 faces vertically downward. The post 32 enters the slot 22 through the opening and supports the frame 2. The connecting ends of a pair of temples 3 on the frame 2 are respectively provided with a third magnet, a snap fastener structure, or a Velcro structure that attracts each other.

[0036] The soft elastomer material is silicone rubber.

[0037] The soft elastomer material is soft silicone.

[0038] As per the instruction manual Figure 1-3 As shown, this application uses a soft elastomer material to fabricate the clip 1, and through a structural design with several spaced-apart first grooves 14, the clip 1, when bent and deformed to conform to the surface contour of the frame 2, has gaps in the first grooves 14 as a yield space for deformation. This avoids undesirable conditions such as bulges and wrinkles on the display end face 13 caused by direct bending and deformation of the clip 1, which would affect the visual effect of the display end face 13. With this design, the elastically deformable clip 1 can adapt to different styles and different contour curvatures of the frame 2, can be installed and used immediately, fits perfectly without gaps, and naturally restores its shape after disassembly, overcoming the problem of traditional clips 1 being one-to-one fit or not fitting properly.

[0039] In further design, the display end face 13 can be customized with patterns and colors. The material ratio of the clip 1 can also be adjusted to make the clip 1 present various colors or gradient colors, or set to transparent or semi-transparent effects. Combined with the arrangement, shape and texture design of the first groove 14 of the mounting end face 12, it reflects the visual effect of the combination of the display end face 13 and the mounting end face 12.

[0040] In further design, the adsorption assembly method of clip 1 can be changed by adjusting the position and number of the first magnet 21 and the second magnet 15. In particular, by using magnets symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame 2, the clip 1 of the soft elastomer can be fully unfolded, further avoiding bulges, gaps, and wrinkles.

[0041] Further design considerations, such as those included in the instruction manual. Figure 4 ,5 As shown, the temple 3 is also designed as a detachable soft elastomer material for personalized assembly and display. Moreover, the temple 3 can better fit the wearer's skin contour and can be completely rolled up, unlike traditional folding, forming a new storage method.

[0042] In further design, the clip 1 and temple 3 are preferably made of soft silicone. The technical solution of this application has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of protection of this application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of this application, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the scope of protection of this application.
