Description

Specification

Spectacle frame temple, spectacle frame and spectacle frame fixture

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a temple for a spectacle frame, a spectacle frame provided with the temple, and a spectacle frame attachment that can be attached to a templar body of the spectacle frame.

Background art

[0002] Usually, a spectacle frame is configured by connecting a frame member such as a front frame, a temple extending rearward from both ends of the front frame, and a hinge. In such a spectacle frame, from the viewpoint of design, there are many spectacle frames provided with a so-called straight temple (the temple whose rear end portion is not curved downward or has a small curvature).

[0003] In a spectacle frame having such a straight temple, generally, the rear end portion of the tempnole is arranged along the side surface of the user's head (from the back of the user's ear to the back of the head). The entire temple is biased in the rotational direction so as to bend outwardly and to apply a pressing force (spring force) to both sides of the head.

[0004] However, when the rear end portion of the tempnore is curved outwardly so as to follow the side surface of the user's head, the distance between the rear end portions of the left and right tempnores The distance becomes smaller than the width of the head. For this reason, prior to mounting the spectacle frame, the tempore must be opened to the extent of the head width or larger than the head width against the pressing force applied to both sides of the head. . Therefore, there is a problem that the spectacle frame having the straight temple as described above is difficult to wear. In addition, the straight temple has less contact with the back of the user's ears, so the spectacle frame is held in a stable state when the spectacle frame is worn compared to a normal tempnole with the rear end curved downward. Hold is inferior.

[0005] In contrast, for example, the first temple is connected to the front frame via a joint, and the second temple is attached to the tip of the first temple so as to be swingable via a shaft. The eyeglass frame is mounted at a position where the temple is pivotally supported by a predetermined distance from the inner end of the second temple. Are known (see Japanese Utility Model No. 3081261).

[0006] In such a tempo for a spectacle frame, the second tempnore is attached to the tip of the first tempnore via a shaft so as to be swingable, so that the holdability is improved. However, the area from the inner end of the second temple to the point where it is pivotally supported (range L in FIGS. 1 and 3 of Patent Document 1) is the head of the user moving the face or exercising. Touching the side of the part may cause the second temple to swing slightly even when the spectacle frame is attached. When the second temple swings, there arises a problem that the holdability cannot be maintained satisfactorily. In addition, since such a temple for eyeglass frames is configured to pivotally support the first temple and the second temple, the problem that the shaft member easily deteriorates during repeated use may cause problems. It was hot.

Disclosure of the invention

[0007] The present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior art, which facilitates the wearing of the spectacle frame, and has excellent holdability, and the spectacle frame having the same Another object of the present invention is to provide a spectacle frame attachment that can be attached to the tempnore body of the spectacle frame.

[0008] One aspect of the temple for eyeglass frame according to the present invention includes a temple main body configured such that a front end portion can be attached to a front frame, a connecting member connected to a rear end portion side of the temple main body, A contact member that is disposed on the rear end side of the connecting member and that extends backward from the rear end portion is rotatably attached inward, and the rear end portion is in front of the contact member. A posture holding member that is connected to the end side, and has a front end side that is attached to a position inside the connecting member and spaced forward from the contact member attachment position. The posture holding member is flexible. A first posture that is curved along the connecting member so that the rear end of the contact member is directed inward, and the rear end of the contact member is directed outward. It is characterized by switching to the second posture curved in a convex shape toward the inside.

[0009] According to the temple frame tempo having the above-described configuration, the connecting member is connected to the rear end portion of the temple body that can be attached to the front frame of the eyeglass frame. Furthermore, a contact member is disposed at the rear end portion of the connecting member, and a portion of the contact member that extends rearward from the rear end portion of the connection member is configured to be rotatable inward. On the other hand, the posture holding portion is on the front end side of the contact member. The rear end portion side of the material is continuously provided, and the front end portion side of the posture holding member is inside the connecting member, and is attached to a position spaced forward from the contact member attaching position of the connecting member.

[0010] Here, when the user wears the spectacle frame, when the posture holding member is switched to the second posture, the posture holding member curves in a convex shape inward. As the posture holding member is curved in this way, the rear end portion of the abutting member connected to the posture holding member is held in a state of turning outward. Therefore, the state in which the distance between the rear end portions of the left and right contact members is maintained relatively large is maintained by holding the rear end portion of the contact member facing outward. Can be easily mounted. The same applies when removing. In addition, after the spectacle frame is mounted, by switching the posture holding member to the first posture, the posture holding member is bent in a state along the connecting member, and the rear end of the abutting member connected to the posture holding member is provided. The part turns inward. As the rear end pivots inward, the abutting member abuts against the user's head side surface (from the user's ear back to the back head) so that the abutting member is along the user's head side surface. State is maintained. In this way, the holdability of the spectacle frame when worn can be further improved. In particular, the holdability can be improved even when the temple body is a straight temple that is substantially straight or slightly curved.

[0011] As described above, the posture holding member can be used to switch the direction of the rear end of the abutting member that abuts against the head between inward and outward, thereby mounting the spectacle frame. It is possible to improve the holding power. In particular, the holdability can be improved even when the tempnore body is a straight tempnore that is substantially straight or slightly curved.

[0012] Further, by providing the posture holding member inside the connecting member, the above-described effects can be achieved without impairing the appearance design. In addition, by connecting the connecting member and the abutting member on the inner side where the head enters, and eliminating the breaks between the members, the eyeglass frame can be attached without catching hair or giving the head a sense of incongruity. can do

[0013] It should be noted that the front (front end side) in the above is when the tempnore is attached to the spectacle frame. It means the front (front frame side) when the temple is unfolded. The rear side (rear end side) means the rear side (back side of the ear) when the tempo is deployed when the tempo is attached to the spectacle frame. The inner side means the inner side (head side) when the temple is unfolded when the temple is attached to the spectacle frame. The outside means the outside when the temple is unfolded when the temple is attached to the spectacle frame.

[0014] Preferably, the connecting member is configured to be detachable from the temple body.

In this case, the connecting member and the tempnore body are detachable. By removing the connecting member from the temple body, the connecting member, the contact member attached thereto, and the posture maintaining member can be removed from the spectacle frame. Therefore, the temple frame tempnore according to one aspect of the present invention is used in accordance with the use situation (TPO) of the user, such as using the temple body alone or attaching the connecting member to the temple body. be able to. For example, when the head is frequently moved (swayed) due to sports, etc., the connecting member is connected to the tempnole body to increase the holdability, but during normal use, only the temple body is used, or the temple body Instead of a connecting member at the rear end, use a general (ear contact member) with a general (abutment member does not have a posture-holding member) attached for fashionability (design) It is possible to use different ways of giving priority.

[0016] As described above, the temple for eyeglass frame according to one aspect of the present invention is in a state where the contact member is in contact with the side surface of the user's head when the posture holding member is switched to the first posture. Holdability improves holdability. As described above, the first posture is a posture in which the posture holding member is curved along the connecting member. Therefore, in order to switch the posture holding member to the first posture, the posture holding member is connected to the connecting member. It is necessary that the length be able to bend along the line. Therefore, if the posture holding member is too long or too short, the posture holding member does not bend in a state along the connecting member, so that the holdability of the temple for a spectacle frame according to one embodiment of the present invention is not improved so much. ,. The holdability is not improved so much when the posture holding member is not in a posture that is curved along the connecting member, that is, when the posture holding member does not follow the connecting member, the contact member is placed on the side surface of the user's head. This is because it is difficult to maintain the contact state. This is because the posture holding member is aligned with the connecting member. If not, the posture holding member comes into contact with the side surface of the head, the contact member is pressed outward by the side surface of the head through the posture holding member, and the contact member tries to move away from the side surface of the user's head. This is because power becomes easier to work. Therefore, the present applicant provides the following preferable configuration which prevents the improvement in the holdability of the spectacle frame due to such a cause.

[0017] According to a preferable configuration, the connecting member includes a guide member that slides the front end portion of the posture holding member in the front-rear direction at a position spaced inward and forward from the contact member mounting position. The front end portion of the posture holding member includes a slide member that slides in the front-rear direction with respect to the guide member. The front end portion of the posture holding member has the first posture force and the second posture. When switching to the first position, it slides to one side in the front-rear direction, and when the posture holding member switches from the second position to the first position, it slides to the other side in the front-rear direction.

[0018] According to the preferable configuration, when the posture holding member is switched to the second posture force first posture, the slide member at the front end of the posture holding member slides in the front-rear direction. As described above, the front end portion (sliding member) slides in the front-rear direction, so that the posture holding member takes a curved posture (first posture) along the connecting member regardless of the length of the posture holding member. Power S can be. Therefore, according to the preferable configuration that is strong, since the posture holding member follows the connecting member regardless of the length of the posture holding member, the holdability of the spectacle frame can be maintained.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of a temple for eyeglass frames according to the present invention, an eyeglass frame having the temple, and a spectacle frame attachment that can be attached to a temple body of the eyeglass frame will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. explain. FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a spectacle frame in the first embodiment according to the present invention. FIG. 1 (a) is a plan view in the first posture, and FIG. 1 (b) is a plan view in the second posture. FIG. 2 is a side view of the eyeglass frame of FIG.

The spectacle frame 1 according to the present embodiment includes a front frame 2 that holds the lens 10, left and right temples 3 that extend from both ends of the front frame 2 to the rear end side, and both end sides of the front frame 2. And hinges 4 for opening and closing the left and right temples 3 respectively. The front frame 2 has a nose pad 5 attached thereto. The spectacle frame 1 is worn by putting the pad 5 on the nose and bringing a contact member 33 described later into contact with the back side of the ear (between the ear and the head). In the following embodiments, the front (front end side) and the rear (rear end side) are the front (front frame) when the temple 3 is unfolded when the temple 3 is attached to the spectacle frame 1 as shown in FIG. Side) and back (back of ear). The inner side and the outer side mean the inner side (head side) and the outer side when the temple 3 is deployed when the temple 3 is attached to the spectacle frame 1.

[0037] The temple 3 attached to the spectacle frame according to the present invention includes a temple main body 31 having a front end 3Π side attached to the front frame 2, and a connection connected to the rear end 3 lr side of the temple main body 31. The member 32 and the portion disposed on the rear end portion 32r side of the connecting member 32 and extending rearward from the rear end portion 32r can be rotated around the axis of the shaft member 35, thereby The abutting member 33 that is pivotably attached to the side and the rear end 34r side is in front of the abutting member 33. While the end portion 33f is connected to the end portion 33f, the front end portion 34f side is located on the inner side of the connecting member 32 and spaced forward from the contact member 33 mounting position (shaft member 35) (near the front end portion 32f of the connecting member 32). And a posture holding member 34 attached by a fixing member 36. The posture holding member 34 is flexible and has a first posture curved in a state along the connecting member 32 so that the rear end portion 33r of the contact member 33 faces inward. (Fig. 1 (a)) and a second posture (Fig. 1 (b)) in which the rear end portion 33r of the abutting member 33 is directed outward and curved inwardly. It is characterized by switching.

[0038] According to the temple 3 in the spectacle frame 1 having the above-described configuration, the connecting member is provided on the rear end portion 31r side of the tempore body 31 that is rotatably attached to the front frame 2 of the spectacle frame 1 through the hinge 4. 32 are concatenated. In the present embodiment, a through-opening having an opening is provided at the front end 32f of the connecting member 32, and the rear end 31r of the temple body 31 is passed through and connected to the through-opening (FIG. 1). (See the broken line part). Furthermore, a contact member 33 that contacts the head is disposed at the rear end portion 32r of the connection member 32, and a portion extending rearward from the rear end portion 32r of the connection member 32 is a pin or a screw. By enabling rotation about the axis of the shaft member 35, it is configured to be able to rotate inward. On the other hand, the rear end portion 34r side of the posture holding member 34 is connected to the front end portion 33f side of the contact member 33. In the present embodiment, the contact member 33 and the posture maintaining member 34 are integrally molded. Further, the front end portion 34f side of the posture holding member 34 is inside the connecting member 32, and the force is fixed at a position spaced forward from the position (shaft member 35) where the contact member 33 of the connecting member 32 is attached. Mounted using member 36.

[0039] The posture holding member 34 may be a flexible member, for example, a leaf spring formed of an elastomer (a high-molecular substance having elasticity such as natural rubber or synthetic rubber), a shape memory alloy, or the like. Various elastic members can be used. In addition, in order to make the squeezing direction substantially parallel to the pivotable direction of the contact member 33 (so that the contact member 33 does not move in the axial direction of the shaft member 35), a cross-sectional shape that is long in the axial direction. It is preferable that The cross-sectional shape can be variously applied such as an elliptical shape, a semicircular shape, and a plate shape. The posture holding member 34 may be formed by being woven into a fiber shape that may be hollow or solid.

[0040] In the case where the posture holding member 34 and the contact member 33 are integrally molded, among the members integrally molded of a flexible material, a core such as a metal plate is provided at a position corresponding to the contact member. It is good also as incorporating a material. The fixing member 36 of the present embodiment is an annular body made of the same material as the posture holding member 34 and is fixed after being inserted into the front end portion 32f side of the connecting member 32. The fixing member 36 of the present embodiment is formed integrally with the posture holding member 34, but is not limited to this, and the fixing member 36 formed of the same or different material is attached to the posture holding member 34. It is good as well. Further, the posture holding member 34 (and the contact member 33) and the connecting member 32 may be integrally formed.

[0041] Here, a usage mode of the eyeglass frame 1 of the present embodiment will be described. First, when the user wears the spectacle frame 1, the posture holding member 34 is switched to the second posture (FIG. 1 (b)). At this time, the posture holding member 34 is curved inward so that the rear end portion 33r of the contact member 33 connected to the posture holding member 34 is turned outward. Hold. Therefore, by holding the rear end portion 33r of the contact member 33 facing outward, the distance between the rear end portions 33r of the left and right contact members 33 (the distance of the portion through which the head passes) ) The state where X 2 is wider than the distance XI between the rear end portions 33r in the first posture described later is maintained. For this reason, the spectacle frame 1 can be easily attached. The same applies when removing.

[0042] Further, after the spectacle frame 1 is mounted, the posture holding member 34 is bent into a state along the connecting member 32 by switching the posture holding member 34 to the first posture (FIG. 1 (a)). Then, the rear end portion 33r of the contact member 33 provided continuously with the posture holding member 34 turns inward. The rear end 33r pivots inward so that the contact member 33 follows the side of the user's head (from the back of the user's ear to the back of the user's head). The state in contact with is maintained. In this way, it is possible to further improve the holdability of the spectacle frame 1 when worn. In particular, even when the temple main body 31 is a straight temple slightly curved as shown in FIG.

[0043] As described above, by using the posture holding member 34, the direction of the rear end portion 33r of the contact member 33 that is in contact with the head can be switched between inward and outward, whereby the eyeglass frame 1 can be easily mounted and the holdability can be further improved. In particular, the holdability can be improved even when the temple body 31 is a straight temple that is substantially straight or slightly curved. Further, by providing the posture holding member 34 inside the connecting member 32, as shown in FIG. 2, the above-described effects can be achieved without impairing the appearance design. Further, the posture holding member 34 connects the connecting member 32 and the contact member 33 on the inner side where the head enters, so that the cut between the members is eliminated, so that the hair frame can be removed when the spectacle frame 1 is attached or detached. The eyeglass frame 1 can be worn without getting hairs caught or giving the head a feeling of strangeness.

[0045] In addition, since the contact member and the posture maintaining member are formed into a single body and configured as one component, the number of components can be reduced, the weight can be reduced, and the cost can be reduced. In addition, the durability of the member can be improved, such as the prevention of detachment between the parts, as compared with the case where the parts are constituted by different parts.

In the present embodiment, the connecting member 32 is configured to be detachable from the temple body 31. FIG. 3 is a plan view of the spectacle frame 1 of FIG. 1 with the connecting member 32 removed.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 3, the connecting member 32 and the tempnore body 31 are detachable. By removing the connecting member 32 from the temple body 31, the spectacle frame mounting tool 30 composed of the connecting member 32 and the abutting member 33 and the posture holding member 34 attached thereto can be removed from the spectacle frame 1. it can. Therefore, it is possible to use the temple 3 in accordance with the use situation (TPO) of the user, such as using the temple 3 only with the temple body 31 or attaching the eyeglass frame attachment 30 to the temple body 31. For example, when the head is frequently moved (swayed) due to sports or the like, the connecting member 32 of the eyeglass frame attachment 30 is connected to the temple body 31 (in the state of use shown in FIG. 1). On the other hand, in normal use, use only the temple body 31 (as shown in FIG. 3), or use a general (instead of the spectacle frame attachment 30 on the rear end 31r of the temple head body 31). It can be used in a manner that gives priority to fashionability (designability) by using it with the abutment member 33 (without the contact member 33 and the posture holding member 34) attached. In the present embodiment, the eyeglass frame mounting tool 30 is fixed to the eyeglass frame 1 by passing the tempnore body 31 from the through hole provided in the connecting member 32. The structure to be fixed is not limited to this. Various configurations such as a configuration in which a material is screwed and fixed, or a configuration in which any one member is sandwiched and fixed by any other member are possible.
