Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to interchangeable decorative parts for eyeglass temples. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, typical eyeglasses have a frame and two temples, with pin joints at both ends of the frame and pin-connected lugs at the front ends of the temples, and the two temples are pin-connected to both sides of the frame via pin joint parts. However, most typical temples are integrally molded from metal or plastic, resulting in a monotonous and unchanging appearance. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The primary object of the present invention is to provide a decorative component for eyeglass temples that can be easily replaced by the wearer.
[0004] The decorative part for eyeglasses temples of the present invention comprises an eyeglass frame, two temples, and two decorative parts. Each end of the eyeglass frame is provided with a pin joint having a pin joint component. The two temples are each pin-connected to pin joints at both ends of the eyeglass frame via pin joint parts, and the front of the temple is a decorative part assembly made of metal. The inner surface of the front end of the decorative part assembly is provided with pin joint lugs that are pin-connected to the pin joints of the eyeglass frame via the pin joint parts, and a bending part is provided behind the pin joint lugs. The wall of the decorative part assembly is provided with a slide groove that extends to the bending part. The two decorative components are respectively assembled and installed on the outer surfaces of the decorative component assemblies of the two temples. The front ends of the two decorative components are provided with locking devices that protrude inward and lock onto the front edges of the temples. The inner surfaces of the front ends of the decorative components are provided with recesses with magnets fixed inside, which are attached to the outer surfaces of the decorative component assemblies of the temples. The inner surfaces of the decorative components are provided with protrusions that fit into the sliding grooves of the temples, and the upper and lower edges of the protrusions are provided with opposing fitting grooves that fit into the upper and lower edges of the sliding grooves of the temples.
[0005] In the decorative part for the temple of the eyeglasses of the present invention, the decorative part is made of a plastic material.
[0006] The advantage of the decorative element for the temple of the eyeglasses of the present invention is that the user can change different decorative elements on the temple by himself as needed, and can change the appearance of the temple, and the decorative element can be changed easily and quickly. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Figure 3] 1 is an assembled cross-sectional view of an embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 4] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. 2. [Figure 5] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a decorative part replacement according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0008] The technical means used by the present invention to achieve the above-mentioned purposes and effects will be described in detail below with reference to preferred and possible embodiments and drawings.
[0009] 1 to 4, an embodiment of the present invention mainly comprises one eyeglass frame 1, two temples 2, and two decorative components 3. The eyeglass frame 1 is provided with pin joints 10 at both ends, and pin joint components 11 are provided on the pin joints 10. The two temples 2 are each pin-connected to the pin joints 10 at both ends of the eyeglass frame 1 via the pin joint components 11. The front of the temple 2 is a decorative component assembly 20 made of a metal material, and a pin joint lug 21 is provided on the inner surface of the front end of the assembly, which is pin-connected to the pin joint 10 of the eyeglass frame 1 via the pin joint component 11. A bending portion 22 is provided behind the pin joint lug 21 of the decorative component assembly 20, and a slide groove 23 is provided on the wall of the decorative component assembly 20, which extends to the bending portion 22. The two decorative components 3 are respectively assembled and installed on the outer surfaces of the decorative component assemblies 20 of the two temples 2, and the decorative components 3 are made of a plastic material. The decorative parts 3 can be different colors, or decorated with different patterns, designs, etc. The front ends of the two decorative parts 3 are provided with inwardly protruding fasteners 30, which are fastened to the front edge 24 of the temple 2. The inner surface of the front end of the decorative part 3 is provided with a recess 31, and a magnet 32 is fixedly installed in the recess 31, and the magnet 32 is attracted to the outer surface of the decorative part assembly part 20 of the temple 2. The inner surface of the decorative part 3 is provided with a protrusion 33, which is inserted into the slide groove 23 of the temple 2. The upper and lower edges of the protrusion 33 are provided with opposite fitting grooves 34, which are for inserting the upper and lower edges of the slide groove of the temple into them. In this way, the temple of the eyeglasses becomes a structure of an interchangeable decorative part.
[0010] When assembling and using the present invention, refer to Figures 1 to 5. First, the inner surface of the rear end of the decorative component 3 is brought into close contact with the outer surface of the front end of the temple 2, and the ridges 33 on the inner surface of the decorative component 3 are fitted into the slide grooves 23 of the bent portions 22 of the temple 2, and the upper and lower edges of the slide grooves 23 of the temple 2 are fitted into the fitting grooves 34 on the upper and lower edges of the ridges 33. The decorative component 3 is pushed toward the rear of the temple 2, and the ridges 33 of the decorative component 3 slide over the slide grooves 23 of the temple 2, and the locking devices 30 of the decorative component 3 are locked onto the front edge 24 of the temple 2. The decorative component 3 is fixed in position on the outer surface of the decorative component assembly portion 20 of the temple 2 via the magnets 32 on its inner surface, allowing the decorative component 3 to be combined and fixed in position with the temple 2. The two temples 2 are pin-connected to the two pin connections 10 of the eyeglass frame 1 via the pin connection components 11, respectively, and thus the assembly of the temple 2 and eyeglass frame 1 is completed. By installing the decorative element 3 on the temple 2, the decorative effect of the entire temple 2 is enhanced, making the glasses look more beautiful. To replace the decorative element 3 on the temple 2, the user simply places the temple 2 back into the eyeglass frame 1, as shown in FIG. 5. The temple 2 pivots on the pin joint element 11, rotating the front ends of the temple 2 and decorative element 3 away from the eyeglass frame 1, so that the front end of the decorative element 3 is no longer hooked onto the eyeglass frame 1. The decorative element 3 is then pushed forward from the temple 2, and the ridge 33 of the decorative element 3 slides through the slide groove 23 of the temple 2 and out of the bent portion 22 of the temple 2. In this way, the decorative element 3 can be separated from the temple 2, and another decorative element 3 can be attached to the decorative element assembly 20 of the temple 2. Assembly and disassembly of the decorative element 3 is very simple and quick, allowing the user to attach another decorative element 3 to the temple 2 as needed, thereby achieving a variety of changes to the appearance of the temple 2.
[0011] As described above, the present invention certainly achieves the intended purpose and effect, and is more ideal and practical than the prior art. However, the above-mentioned examples are merely for specifically explaining the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the examples are not intended to limit the scope of the patent of the present invention. Any equivalent changes and modifications made without departing from the technical means disclosed in the present invention are all included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
