Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a temple for glasses, and more particularly to a quick-coupled temple that could be vertically pivotally turned to different angular positions relative to the rims of glasses, so that the glasses could be more comfortably worn on a user's head.
- People suffering myopia, astigmatism, or presbyopia need to wear suitable glasses to adjust their vision. The currently available glasses are designed based on ergonomics to minimize the wearer's discomfort due to wearing the glasses over a prolonged time. For this purpose, the temples of the glasses are usually bendable or finely adjustable.
- A pair of glasses typically includes two lenses set in two rims connected to each other via a bridge, and two temples separately connected at front ends to two lateral outer ends of the rims by means of hinges and screws, such that the temples could be folded at the hinges toward the bridge to locate behind the rims and lenses for easy carrying and storage of the glasses when the same is not in use. An angle contained between the temple and the adjacent rim tends to increase when the glasses has been used for a long time, particularly when the wearer has a wide face. The adjustment of the angle contained between the temple and the rim is uneasy and troublesome and must be done by an artisan using suitable devices. In the case of plastic rims and temples, the artisan has to heat and thereby soften the temples, so that the temples could be finely adjusted according to the wearer's head configuration to allow comfortable wearing of the glasses. In the case of metal rims and temples, they must be adjusted using special tools to avoid spoiling the finish and appearance thereof.
- There are glasses with integrally formed rims and temples made of a special metal with memory, such as titanium alloys or magnesium alloys. Such rims and temples may be readily adjusted or bent according to the wearer's head or preference but require high manufacturing cost, which is not affordable by general consumers. Moreover, some users have an allergic reaction to the special metal material with memory.
- Therefore, the conventional metal and plastic temples are not easily adjustable for the wearers to wear the glasses comfortably, and have the problems of expensive price and/or forming an allergen to some wearers.
- A primary object of the present invention is to provide a quick-coupled and adjustable temple for glasses that could be quickly and conveniently connected to a rim of the glasses via a coupler without using any tool and metal parts.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a quick-coupled and adjustable temple for glasses that could be vertically pivotally turned about a coupler to locate at different angular positions relative to a rim of the glasses for a user to wear the glasses more comfortably.
- To achieve the above and other objects, the quick-coupled and adjustable temple for glasses according to the present invention includes a coupler defining a forward opened receiving cavity and having two short shafts vertically projected from an upper and a lower front end of the coupler for engaging with two shaft holes correspondingly provided at a lateral outer end of an adjacent rim; and a temple being provided closely behind an inner front or proximal end with a centered coupling member for engaging with the receiving cavity on the coupler, and at the inner front end with a sideward projection.
- In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the coupling member on the temple is in the form of a circular cup.
- The projection provided at the inner front end of the temple is adapted to abut on a stopper provided at a lateral front end of the rim to prevent the temple from being overly pivotally turned about the short shafts of the coupler to forward locate beyond the rim.
- To connect the temple to the rim of the glasses, first engage the two short shafts on the coupler with the two shaft holes on the rim, so that the coupler is connected to the rim. Then, slide the coupling member into the forward opened receiving cavity to connect the temple to the coupler and accordingly the rim. The temple could be vertically pivotally turned about the coupling member in the receiving cavity to different angular positions relative to the rim to meet a wearer's preference or head configuration.
- The structure and the technical means adopted by the present invention to achieve the above and other objects can be best understood by referring to the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings, wherein
-
FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a quick-coupled and adjustable temple for glasses according to the present invention; -
FIG. 2 shows the connection of a coupler for the temple of the present invention to a rim of the glasses; -
FIG. 3 shows the temple of the present invention having been fully connected to the rim via the coupler; -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a pair of glasses with the temples of the present invention; -
FIG. 5 shows the folding of the temple of the present invention toward a bridge of the glasses; and -
FIG. 6 shows the manner of vertically turning the temple of the present invention to different angular positions relative to the rim of the glasses. - Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 4, in which a quick-coupled and adjustable temple for glasses according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown.
- The quick-coupled and adjustable temple for glasses of the present invention includes a
coupler 1 and atemple 2. Thecoupler 1 defines a forward opened receivingcavity 11 and has twoshort shafts 12 separately vertically projected from an upper front end and a lower front end thereof. Thetemple 2 is provided closely behind an inner front or proximal end with acentered coupling member 21 for engaging with the receivingcavity 11 on thecoupler 1, and at the inner front end with asideward projection 22. - The
short shafts 12 on thecoupler 1 are provided for engaging with twoshaft holes 31 correspondingly provided at a lateral outer end of arim 3 of the glasses, so as to connect thecoupler 1 to therim 3. - In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the
coupling member 21 on thetemple 2 is substantially a circular cup. - The
projection 22 on thetemple 2 is provided for abutting on astopper 32 provided at a lateral front end of therim 3 adjacent to the temple 2 (seeFIG. 4 ), so as to prevent thetemple 2 from being overly turned from a folded position to forward locate beyond therim 3. - To connect the
temple 2 to therim 3, first engage the twoshort shafts 12 on thecoupler 1 with the twoshaft holes 31 on therim 3, so that thecoupler 1 is pivotally connected to therim 3 with an angle of 90 degrees temporarily contained between them. At this point, the open end of thereceiving cavity 11 defined by thecoupler 1 is directed forward to locate at the lateral outer end of therim 3, as shown inFIG. 2 . Then, move thetemple 2 toward thecoupler 1 and slide thecoupling member 21 in the form of a circular cup fully into thereceiving cavity 11 of thecoupler 1 via the forward open end of thereceiving cavity 11, so that thetemple 2 is connected to thecoupler 1 and accordingly therim 3. - Since the circular cup-
shaped coupling member 21 has a size slightly larger than that of thereceiving cavity 11, thecoupling member 21 is located in thereceiving cavity 11 in a tight fit manner without the risk of easily separating therefrom. - Since the
temple 2 is quickly connected to therim 3 via thecoupler 1 without using any tool and metal parts, such as screws, the glasses using thetemples 2 of the present invention can be more quickly and conveniently manufactured or assembled to reduce the manufacturing cost thereof. Moreover, since no metal parts are needed to connect thetemple 2 to therim 3, it is possible to avoid the potential danger existed in the conventional temple that might injure a user due to any metal part when the conventional temple is broken at the joint with the rim. Therefore, the glasses using thetemples 2 of the present invention is safer for wearing. - Please refer to
FIG. 5 . When it is desired to fold thetemples 2 for easy carrying of the glasses when the same is not in use, simply turn everytemple 2 about theshort shafts 12 that are engaged with theshaft holes 31 on therim 3, and thetemple 2 connected to thecoupler 1 via the engagedcoupling member 21 and receivingcavity 11 is moved along with thecoupler 1 toward abridge 33 of the glasses into a folded position. - Please refer to
FIGS. 4 and 5 at the same time. When a user wants to wear the glasses and extends thetemples 2 from the folded position, theprojection 22 provided at the front inner end of everytemple 2 would finally press against thestopper 32 provided at the lateral front end of theadjacent rim 3, preventing thetemple 2 from being overly turned outward to become damaged, deformed or even broken due to improper operation thereof or unexpected external force applied thereto. - Please refer to
FIGS. 3 and 6 . Since thecoupling member 21 is in the form of a circular cup, it is possible for thecircular coupling member 21 to rotate in thereceiving cavity 11. In this manner, thetemple 2 could be vertically pivotally turned about the mutually engagedcircular coupling member 21 and receivingcavity 11 within a range about ±10 degrees to locate at different angular positions relative to therim 3. Therefore, a wearer may vertically adjust the angular position of thetemple 2 relative to therim 3 in accordance with the wearer's preference or head configuration, so as to wear the glasses comfortably. - In brief, the
temple 2 according to the present invention has at least the following advantages: -
- 1. The
temple 2 could be quickly and conveniently connected to therim 3 via thecoupler 1 simply by sliding thecoupling member 21 into thereceiving cavity 11 without using any tool and metal parts.
- 1. The
- 2. The
temple 2 could be vertically pivotally turned about thecircular coupling member 21 and thereby adjusted to different angular positions relative to therim 3 depending on the wearer's need. - The present invention has been described with a preferred embodiment thereof and it is understood that many changes and modifications in the described embodiment can be carried out without departing from the scope and the spirit of the invention that is intended to be limited only by the appended claims.
