Definitions
- the present invention relates to a spectacle using a single metal material for the entire spectacle, except for a part of the spectacle parts such as a lens, a locking end (a temple end) or a nose pad, and the temple rotates around the metal.
- TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an eyeglass hinge mechanism that does not use a screw and has a mechanism for moving the temple and prevents rattling of the temple when the temple is open and when the temple is closed.
- the spectacles include a pair of left and right lenses, a main body rim that holds the pair of lenses from the side of the lens and serves as a main body of the spectacle frame, and a nose pad and a temple for locking the nose and ears of the spectacle wearer. It consists of parts such as a locking rod (temple end) and other parts.
- such rim-type glasses are generally fitted with braids on both sides of the main body rim by brazing and connecting the holoy and temple with hinges.
- the rotation of the temple with respect to the skeleton does not move without resistance, but rather has an appropriate resistance.
- the degree of resistance when the temple is rotated with respect to the metal is referred to as the shoddy characteristic.
- rimless eyeglasses in which an eyeglass frame is formed without using the main body rim in order to secure a wide field of view and reduce the weight of the rim-type eyeglasses.
- these rimless glasses require that the frame members be formed of thin wires such as metal, that YOROI can be directly attached to the lens, and that the temples can be used without the hinges.
- the device has been devised so that it can be turned.
- FIG. 3015058 An example of a structure in which the temple rotation mechanism with respect to the scallop does not use a hinge is “Tsunagi Joint Structure of Eyeglass Frame” (Mitsuto 3015058).
- the wire rod Is bent to form a square ring having a vertical member, and a pipe piece is fixed to the ring at the end of the vine (temple) to form a bearing.
- a hinge mechanism that does not use screws is realized by fitting and connecting to the vertical members of the section.
- the technique described in “Rotating Method and Rotating Mechanism for Eyeglasses” Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 08-50264
- the shaft at the temple end is pressed against the bracket (hole) to provide resistance to the rotation of the shaft.
- the eyeglass opening / closing structure of the above-mentioned type which does not use a hinge having a normal screw structure, as described in the above-mentioned "Toggle joint structure of the eyeglass frame” and “Rotating method and rotating mechanism in eyeglasses” Unless it is after the attachment, the resistance at the time of rotation cannot be understood. Adjustment is difficult because the temple must be removed from the temple in order to make the adjustment.
- the “eyeglass frame” has a structure in which fine adjustment of the opening characteristics can be easily performed before attaching the template to the alloy. However, a frictional resistance during rotation is generated between the connector of the alloy and the connector mounting portion of the temple (denoted as "crane” in the present invention) via a synthetic resin.
- Gold is a popular eyeglass frame.
- weight becomes a problem and weight reduction is required.
- the structure of the above-described invention and the invention that enables the weight reduction and the simplification of the structure are described.
- the above technique has a problem in that the temple is fixed stably when the temple is opened or closed.
- “Rotation method and rotation mechanism for eyeglasses” a structure is proposed in which a concave portion is provided at one end of a bracket (corresponding to a metal alloy) and the temple shaft is pressed against it, but the temple is fixed stably. Rather, it is just a matter of thinking that the rotating mechanism does not impose a dynamic I have.
- the “eyeglass frame” uses a frictional resistance due to the tightening of the rotating part to enable proper opening and closing, creating a sense of stability.
- synthetic resin is used for the connection part.
- the problem to be solved by the present invention while following the above-described technology, is to make eyeglasses composed of a single material of eyeglass parts, and when the temple is opened or the temple is closed,
- the purpose of the present invention is to propose a hinge mechanism that does not use screws and that aims to maintain the stable open or closed state by eliminating backlash.
- the term "hinge mechanism" used in the present invention means a function of a spectacle unit having a rotary connection structure, and does not mean an independent spectacle part called a hinge.
- the "hinge without using a screw” in the present invention is a connecting portion between a temple and a holoy that does not use a conventional hinge (a hinge by screwing), and has a rotation function ( This means a part having a hinge function). Disclosure of the invention
- the hinge connects the temple to the front and has a temple opening / closing function.
- hinges enable the opening and closing mechanism of the temple by fixing the temple to the rim by screwing the temple and the temple with a screw between the rim and the temple via a chiro (oroi).
- chiro oroi
- the “eyeglass frame” seen in the prior art uses synthetic resin for the rotating mechanism so that the frictional resistance can be adjusted by tightening the pivot hole.
- the present invention in order to obtain a simple structure using no synthetic resin, it is necessary to consider the stability of the temple when the temple is open or closed by another method. Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention provides a hinge mechanism for holding the temple with a part of the alloy when the temple is in an open state or a closed state. Specifically, it is as follows.
- both the temple and the alloy are made of linear metal, and the tip of the temple is formed into an annular shape to form a pivot hole.
- the temple can be turned by inserting it into the pivot of the troy.
- the eyeglass hinge mechanism is equipped with a temple fixing means that controls the opening of the temple at the foremost end of the temple on the temple side, and prevents the temple from falling inside while the temple is open.
- the above-mentioned linear metal is preferably hollow in terms of strength.
- a substantially cylindrical shape is easy to manufacture, but is not limited to this. For example, it may have an elliptical cylindrical cross-sectional shape.
- FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of a hinge mechanism having a holding part at the time of opening in an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of a hinge mechanism having an open-time holding portion according to the embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a hinge mechanism provided with the concave curved holding portion at the time of opening according to the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view for explaining a method of holding a temple on the holding portion in the hinge mechanism having the concave curved holding portion at the time of opening of the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a hinge mechanism having the concave curved holding portion at the time of opening according to the present invention.
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a hinge mechanism provided with the concave curved holding portion at the time of opening and the holding portion at the time of closing of the present invention.
- FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram of a rotating portion of the hinge mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 8 is a perspective view of rimless spectacles having a hinge mechanism provided with the holding part at the time of opening according to the present invention.
- FIG. 1 is an explanatory view of a hinge mechanism having a holding part at the time of opening according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- Yolo is attached to the rim. Rim 3 and Choroy 1 are brazed. Yoroi bends and works the linear member to make a connection mounting part (axis) 110 and a hook-shaped holding part 120 for holding the temple when the temple is opened.
- an annular portion that is, a pivot hole 210 is formed at the end of the temple 2, and the pivot hole 210 is passed through the distal end of the holding portion 120 of the hollow when it is opened, and is held by the pivot 110.
- Figure 2 shows the state when the temple is open. Opening holding part 120 is slightly inside the temple The temple is fixed because it is located on the side and is shaped to grab the axis of Temple 2. If necessary, a recess (stopper) as shown in the partial cross-sectional view of FIG. 1 may be provided at a position where the temple of the disclosure holding portion distal end 121 is accommodated so that the temple is fixed more stably than when the temple is opened. Good.
- the holding portion is formed in a shape in which the ends of the hook are hook-shaped and the temple is hooked.
- the open bay curved concave holding portion 120 is a portion that fixes the temple by holding the shaft of the temple 2 when the temple is opened.
- the pivot hole 210 is inserted from the disclosed holding portion tip 121 and fixed with the hollod pivot 110 (see (b) in the figure).
- the reason why the distal end portion 121 of the disclosure holding portion is bent outward is that the fitting port 122 is curved to facilitate the insertion of the temple.
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing the disclosure holding unit and the shaft of the temple.
- the fitting entrance 122 is made slightly narrower than the temple, and when the temple is fitted into the disclosure holding unit 120, it is pushed in (see (a)). Yoroi can be easily inserted because the insertion opening is widened by the elasticity of the material (see (b)). The temple disappears because the temple completely fits into the disclosure holder. Similarly, when closing the temple, it can be easily detached from the holding part by the strong force of the metal.
- FIG. 5 shows an example in which a hook-shaped holding unit is used. Therefore, the cell has the holding part 120 at the time of opening and the holding part 130 at the time of closing.
- FIG. 6B when the temple is closed, the closed-time holding portion 130 hooks the axis of the temple 2 and fixes it.
- the closed-time holding portion 130 can also be formed into a curved concave shape as shown in FIG.
- the holding part 130 at the time of closing is extended on the extension of the pivot 110 and in a form simply over the axis of the holoy, but it is to be wound around the axis of the holoy. Therefore, the closed-time holding unit 130 can be further stabilized.
- FIG. 7 is an explanatory view of a rotating portion of the hinge mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 3A is a diagram showing a temple of the present invention
- FIG. 4B is a top view showing a state in which a pivot hole of the temple is inserted into a pivot 110 of the temple
- FIG. 4B is a diagram showing a state in which a pivot hole of the temple is inserted into a pivot 110 of the temple
- FIG. 8 is a perspective view of rimless spectacles having a hinge mechanism provided with the holding part at the time of opening of the present invention.
- the wire used in the present invention is preferably a metal having a stable shape and elasticity, such as a gold alloy, such as a heat-treated 14K. Thanks to the strength of the metal wire, the temple can fit more stably. Industrial applicability
- the spectacle frame can be formed with a single metal wire, so that the weight can be reduced.
- heavy metal which is preferred by customers, it is possible to reduce the weight and use of metal parts other than gold, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.
- the hinge portion of the present invention Although it is difficult for the hinge portion of the present invention to have the same characteristics as ordinary hinges in terms of the opening characteristics, the stability of the open state is good and there is no problem in use. Also, since the frame is composed entirely of thin lines, it has a neat structure and is desirable in appearance. Also, since the temple is held between two points, the rotating shaft and the holding part at the time of opening, there is no place where stress is concentrated, and the structure is hard to break.
- a hinge mechanism that does not use screws can be realized using a single metal material.
- the temple can be stably opened and closed without any special treatment such as resin applied to the hinge mechanism.
