Description

  The present invention relates to a spectacle frame capable of attaching a pad to a vine or armor and supporting the front part by applying the pad to a cheekbone.

  FIG. 7 shows a conventional general eyeglass frame. The eyeglass frame consists of a front part (b) and two vines (b) and (b). The vines (b) and (b) are arranged on both sides of the front part (b). ) Through a joint such as a hinge (d) or (d) so that it can be folded. The front part (b) is provided with rims (f) and (f) on both sides of the connecting member (e), and the above-mentioned armor (c) and (c) are brazed to the outside of the rims (f) and (f). is doing. A nose pad (g) and (g) are attached to the inside (center side) of the rim.

  By the way, when wearing glasses on the face, put the nose pads (g) and (g) on both sides of the nose and insert them on the tips of the vines (b) and (b). None) is locked to the ear. The front part (I) is supported by the nose through the nose pads (g) and (g), but if you are wearing glasses for a long time, hit the nose pads (g) and (g) Both sides of the nose turn red and the makeup peels off. Therefore, when the glasses are removed, both sides of the nose, where the makeup is peeled off and become red, are conspicuous, which is a big problem especially for young women.

  Titanium material is often used as a light material excellent in spring made of a spectacle frame in recent years, and the front part is very light because a plastic lens is also used as a lens. Compared to the old spectacles in which a glass lens is fitted in a spectacle frame using stainless steel, it is very light. However, it is necessary to support the front part with a nose pad, so it is impossible to avoid peeling off the makeup on both sides of the nose. In some cases, the material of the nose pad is made of a soft silicone resin, but it cannot completely prevent red discoloration or peeling of the makeup.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a spectacle frame configured to support a front portion by attaching a pad to the inside of a vine and applying the pad to a comet of the face is known. However, even if the pad attached to the inside of the vine is pressed against the kokomami, the front part cannot be completely supported because it slides down.

  As described above, the glasses frame having the nose pad attached to the front portion has the above-described problems. The problem to be solved by the present invention is this problem, and provides a spectacle frame that can stably support the front portion without a nose pad.

  The eyeglass frame according to the present invention is not provided with a nose pad on the front portion, and is attached to the vine or armor. And this pad is attached to the front part side of a crane in order to hit a cheekbone and to support a front part, and also the pad is located inside and below the temple. The arm is extended obliquely downward from the temple, and the pad is attached to the tip of the arm.

  Here, the material and shape of the pad are not limited, and the arm structure is not limited. The pad hits the cheekbone and can support the front part, but the direction of the pad can be changed to fit the position and shape of the cheekbone. For example, a box leg structure to which a conventional nose pad is attached can be adopted, but a structure that can be fixed in a direction fitted to the cheekbone is preferable. In some cases, the arm attached to the vine can be moved in its position.

  The eyeglass frame according to the present invention does not include a nose pad, and the pad attached to the vine or armor hits the cheekbone of the face to support the front portion. Therefore, the nose pad will not hit and the sides of the nose will not turn red, and the makeup on both sides of the nose will not be peeled off. Since the pad has a structure that can change its orientation, the pad can be fitted even if the position and shape of the cheekbone are different. In addition, compared to the conventional structure where the nose pad is placed on both sides of the nose and supported, the distance between the two pads is greatly separated, so the burden on the cheekbone is felt to be small, and over a long period of time. Wearing glasses is less tired and does not cause pain.

  FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a spectacle frame according to the present invention, in which 1 denotes a front portion, 2 denotes a temple, and 3 denotes a pad. The front portion 1 has both rims 4 and 4 connected by a connecting member 5, and armatures 6 and 6 are brazed to the outside of the rims 4 and 4. , 2 are attached so that they can be folded.

  Lenses 7 are fitted on the rims 4, 4, and resin-made moderns 8, 8 having an approximately L shape are inserted into the tips of the vines 2, 2. The pad 3 is attached to the tip of an arm 9 extending from the temple 2, and the direction thereof can be changed. The pad 3 is generally made of a resin and a soft silicon resin may be used, but sometimes it may be a metal pad 3.

  FIG. 2 shows a case where the eyeglass frame of FIG. 1 is worn on the face. The basic manner of wearing glasses is the same as in the prior art, but the front part 1 of the glasses frame according to the present invention is supported by putting the pads 3 and 3 attached to the temples 2 and 2 against the cheekbones of the face. 8 is put on the ear. Since the cheekbones 10 and 10 slightly protrude from the side of the face, the pads 3 and 3 can be placed on the cheekbones 10 and 10. For this purpose, the pads 3 and 3 are located diagonally below the inside of the temples 2 and 2.

  Depending on the person, the protrusion of the cheekbone 10 is small, or the shape of the cheekbone 10 is deformed. However, the orientation of the pad 3 attached to the tip of the arm 9 can fit the shape of the cheekbone 10. Thus, the direction can be changed, and the pad 3 is fixed in a fixed direction. A conventional nose pad that hits the positions close to each other by hitting the pads 3 and 3 attached to the temples 2 and 2 on the cheekbones 10 and 10 located on both sides of the face at a predetermined distance. The front part 1 feels lighter.

  FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the eyeglass frame according to the present invention. The pads 3 and 3 are also attached to the eyeglass frame, but the bending arms 11 and 11 extend from the arms 6 and 6. The pads 3 and 3 are positioned below the inside of the temples 2 and 2, and the front portion 1 is supported by hitting the cheekbones 10 and 10. Here, the arm 9 and the curved arm 11 fixed to the temple 2 or the armor 6 are generally brazed.

  FIG. 4 shows a schematic view of the attachment structure of the pad 3. In FIG. 4A, an arm 9 bent in an L shape extends downward from the temple 2 and the pad 3 is attached to the tip of the arm. (b) extends the arm 9 downward from the temple 2, and a pad 3 is attached to the tip of the arm. The arm 9 shown in (b) extends downward from the temple 2, but is actually inclined slightly inward.

  By the way, the crane 2 is hollow, and a slider 14 is fitted in the internal space 13. An arm 9 extends from the slider 14 through a groove 15 formed in the temple 2. Therefore, the slider 14 can be moved in order to fit the pad 3 to the cheekbone 10, and the direction of the pad 3 can be adjusted at the same time.

  The slider 14 is fitted in the inner space 13 of the temple 2 so as to be movable. However, when the glasses are worn, a load that supports the weight of the front portion 1 acts on the pad 3, and the force that pushes up the arm 9 causes the slider 14 to move. The slider 14 is stabilized at a predetermined position by friction between the arm 9 and the inner surface of the internal space 13 and friction between the arm 9 and the groove 15. Of course, it can also be screwed when the position of the slider 14 is determined.

  FIG. 5 shows another embodiment showing the attachment structure of the pad 3. The pad 3 is attached to the tip of the arm 9, but the crane 2 is sandwiched between the arm 9 and the roller 12. The roller 12 is pivotally supported so that it can rotate. For this reason, if the roller 12 rotates and moves, the pad 3 can change its position. Here, the crane 2 is stably sandwiched between the arm 9 and the roller 12 so that the pad 3 does not swing.

  In the case of FIG. 5A, an L-shaped auxiliary arm 16 is extended outward from the upper end of the arm 9, and the roller 12 can be supported by the longitudinal axis 18 of the auxiliary arm 16 and rotate. In the case of FIG. 5B, the L-shaped auxiliary arm 17 is extended outward from the intermediate position of the arm 9, and the roller 12 is supported by the vertical axis 18 of the auxiliary arm 17 and can rotate. .

  FIG. 6 is a specific example showing the attachment structure of the pad 3 provided at the tip of the arm 9. The pad 3 is provided with a bearing 19, and a shaft portion 20 formed at the arm tip is fitted into the bearing 19. The pad 3 rotates around the shaft 20 and the shaft 20 has a spherical shape so that its direction can be freely changed. The pad 3 hits the cheekbone 10 to support the front portion 1, but its orientation can be adjusted so that it can fit the cheekbone 10. Then, the direction of the pad 3 is fixed by tightening the set screw 21 screwed into the shaft portion 20 when adjusted to a predetermined direction. However, the present invention is not limited to the orientation adjustment structure of the pad 3 shown in FIG.
