Description

Glasses frame with improved assembly

The present invention relates to a spectacle frame with improved assembly, and more particularly, to form a unique assembly structure between the hinge mounting portion formed on the end of the front and the hinge assembly assembled to the hinge mounting portion to ensure stable assembly therebetween. It is directed to a spectacle frame with improved assembly to form a state, to quickly implement a stable and standardized hinged connection between the front and legs through the hinge assembly.

As is well known, glasses are collectively used for the purpose of restoring vision of a person with low vision or include sunglasses or the like that protects the eyes from strong rays in advance to prevent them from losing sight. It consists of a large eyeglass frame, a temple supporting the eyeglass frame, and a hinge connector for coupling the eyeglass frame and the temple.

Conventional eyeglasses combined with the spectacle frame, the temple, and the hinge connector form hinges on both sides of the spectacle frame equipped with the lens to be coupled to each other, and the hinges are fixed by welding or the like.

Therefore, glasses frames and temples usually made of metal or synthetic resins must use designs such as colors, textures, shapes, etc. at the time when their own designs are first produced. There will be no way.

Therefore, in recent years, no one has been using the glasses for a long time as it has become a disposable product, and the wasteful elements such as discarding glasses that have not been used for a long time and buying new ones have become a big problem.

In particular, the design of such fixed frames and temples is not suitable for the taste of young generations who have a very sensitive fashion sense and always pursue change, and the improvement, that is, the provision of glasses that can change the design at any time is required. something to do.

Generally and known, the interlocking axis of the temples in the spectacles consists of a single screw that connects the two hinges that make up the interlocking action.

However, one of the problems that eyewear makers are widely aware of is that the screws that make up the interlocking shafts loosen too often and must be retightened each time unless the temple is removed at all.

Such a problem is particularly noticeable when the user wants to easily replace the temple so that the user can replace the temple directly instead of contacting an expert. The need for replacement of the temple is gradually increasing as the user's desire to change the design increases. Is in.

In other words, the glasses function as an accessory that changes the wearer's impression in addition to the function of correcting and protecting eyesight. The design of the frame of the front part influences the wearer's impression a lot, but the temple part also It can also be a point of influence.

Accordingly, most glasses wearers who are particularly sensitive to fashion need glasses that have different designs. In this case, most glasses wearers who insist on their own unique design do not easily replace temples. By purchasing several glasses alternately and wearing them, the cost of purchasing the glasses becomes an economic burden.

In view of such a situation, the "eyeglass frame that can be replaced easily" has been posted in Utility Model Registration No. 433694 (registered on December 5, 2006).

In this way, by replacing only the temple in one eyeglass, it is possible to wear glasses with various colors according to the fashion and one's taste, while maintaining the functions of protecting eyesight and enhancing eyesight, and adjusting the length of the temple to grow the body. According to the economical effect that can be used continuously without replacing the glasses every time to reduce the cost.

However, this Utility Model Registration No. 433694 is provided with a connecting means 4 in a part separate from the part where the hinge 3 is located, so that the fixing part 2 and the temple part A which are extensions of the spectacle frame are installed. The complicated structure of the replaceable eyeglass frames and temples was not only extremely limited but also did not produce a variety of styles.

An object of the present invention devised to solve the above problems is to form a unique assembly structure between the hinge mounting portion formed at the end of the front and the hinge assembly pieces assembled to the hinge mounting portion to ensure a stable assembly state therebetween.
