Lens fixing method for rimless eyeglasses, and rimless eyeglasses using the same
Rimless eyeglasses are provided that allow a lens to be fixed to a connector only by fitting the lens into the connector, and that also enable strong engagement between the lens and the connector. Rimless eyeglasses include a rimless lens, a bridge, and a connector that is provided at the tip of a temple. The rimless lens has an inwardly extending notch near upper left and right ends thereof. The bridge and the connector have a groove having a C-shaped longitudinal cross section and extending between top and bottom surfaces thereof. The notches of the rimless lens engage with the grooves of the bridge and the connector.
1. Rimless eyeglasses comprising:
a temple;
a rimless lens having an inwardly extending notch near upper left and right ends thereof, said notch being provided with a stepped portion, and thereby, a first thickness portion having a smaller thickness and upper and lower surfaces is formed; and a recess extending along the width in the upper and lower surfaces of the first thickness portion;
a bridge having a first groove having a C-shaped longitudinal cross section and extending between top and bottom surfaces thereof; and
a connector provided between the temple and the rimless lens and having a second groove having a C-shaped longitudinal cross section and extending between top and bottom surfaces thereof;
at least one of the first groove of the bridge and the second groove of the connector having a projection at the top and the bottom;
wherein the notches of the rimless lens respectively engage with the first groove of the bridge and second grooves of the connector, thereby fitting together the respective first thickness portions of the notches with the first and the second grooves, and fitting together the projection and the recess.
