Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of eyewear, and in particular frames for leisure glasses or for vision correction.
  • the frames are conventionally made up of an extended face on each side by branches, generally articulated by hinges.
  • PCT patent WO9823994 describes a frame structure comprising a central transparent element and a frame situated around the element, fixed parts retain the transparent element in a fixed manner with respect to the milling.
  • a decorative element is mounted so as to rotate with respect to the fixed parts from a position in which a decorative aspect of the decorative element is visible to a position in which another decorative aspect of the decorative element is visible.
  • PCT patent W09744699 also describes glasses have a frame intended to carry glasses as well as branches and comprising a block, fixed by a hinge on the frame, cambers as well as a segment located between the block and the cambers and mounted on the hinge block, pivotally relative to the frame.
  • the pivoting segment can take several forms, have different decorations printed on different dimensions, or be multicolored.
  • the frames of the prior art include a modifiable decorative element, implementing a relatively fragile mechanism. It comprises a rod, the two ends of which are mounted on elements which can be temporarily separated to allow the decorative element to pivot.
  • the lateral flanks of the decorative element are planar and have a section identical to the section of the adjacent fixed parts.
  • the object of the invention is to allow an aesthetic modularity of the frame by a robust technical solution making it possible to modify the appearance of the branch in a simple manner for the user without risk of weakening the frame.
  • the invention relates to a modular frame characterized in that the branch comprises a fixed part and at least one decorative movable between two positions by pivoting, the decorative element is articulated around a rod of which at least one end is integral with the branch in a degree of freedom in rotation only, the decorative element comprising locking means.
  • the decorative element is articulated around a rod, one end of which is secured to the branch and the other end of which is secured to the hinge.
  • the main faces of the decorative element have dimensions determined to extend the fixed part of the branch.
  • the decorative element comprises a cavity in which is housed a spring exerting a pressure on a ball which is positioned, when the decorative element is in position, in a complementary blocking cavity.
  • the cavity is oriented perpendicular to the pivot rod of the decorative element, said rod having diametrically opposite semi-spherical cavities for receiving said ball.
  • the decorative element has a recess for the passage of the pivot rod of oblong section to ensure two preferential opposite positions and to allow tilting under stress from one position to the other.
  • the decorative element comprises magnetic locking means able to cooperate in two positions offset by 180 ° with complementary means provided on the branch or on the hinge of the frame.
  • FIG. 1 shows a side view of the frame according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 shows a front view of a frame branch according to the invention
  • FIG. 3 shows a view along a longitudinal sectional plane of the branch
  • - Figure 4 shows a view a view along a transverse sectional plane of the branch
  • Figures 5 to 7 show front, top and perspective views of an alternative embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 represents a front view of a frame branch according to the invention.
  • the frame comprises in known manner a face (1) and branches (2) connected to the face by a hinge (3).
  • the modularity of the frame according to the invention comes from the presence of a decorative element (4).
  • This decorative element (4) is reversible, which allows one or the other of the faces to appear alternately, which may each have a different drawing, color, graphic or texture.
  • the branch (2) has a fixed part connected to the hinge (3), as shown in the views in longitudinal and transverse section constituting Figures 3 and 4 respectively.
  • the decorative element (4) has a cylindrical passage (7) for the passage of the cylindrical rod
  • the rod (6) has two semi-spherical, diametrically opposite flats (8). These flats have the function of blocking a ball (9) provided in a transverse cavity drilled in the edge of one decorative element (4). The ball is pushed back towards the rod (6) by a spring (10). A screw (11) closes the transverse cavity and the stop of the spring (10).
  • the decorative element can pivot between two stable positions determined by the cooperation of the ball (9) with one of the semi-spherical cavities (8) of the rod.
  • the cross section of the rod (6) is advantageously of the order of 3 mm, and the thickness of the decorative element of the order of 4 mm.
  • the rod is fixed to the fixed part of the branch by screws (12, 13) passing through the rod (6). Likewise, it is fixed to the hinge (3) by a screw passing through the rod.
  • Figures 5 to 7 show respectively front, top and perspective views of an alternative embodiment.
  • the decorative element (4) is formed by a plastic part of rectangular longitudinal section. The cross section conforms to the cross section of two fixed rings (20, 21), provided on the branch of the frame. The front surfaces of the decorative element are flat and adjacent to the fixed front surfaces.
  • the decorative element (4) comprises, at each end, magnets (22 to 25) inserted in the material constituting the decorative element.
  • the rings (20, 21) also include permanent magnets (32 to 35) flush with the front surface. The poles are oriented so that in the two stable rest positions the opposite poles of two adjacent magnets face each other.
  • a pivot axis (36) is rigidly fixed on the two fixed parts (20, 21).
  • the decorative element has a longitudinal hole to allow pivoting.
  • it may provide not one, but several pivoting decorative elements, to create a multitude of possible combinations.
