Eye gear having quick-release frame coupling blocks

An eye gear comprising:

• a lens frame;
• a support unit for supporting said lens frame on a face of a wearer, said support unit including a pair of frame coupling blocks;
• and
• a pair of coupling units, each of which connects pivotally and removably one end of a respective one of said frame coupling blocks to a corresponding one of two ends of said lens frame such that the respective one of said frame coupling blocks is pivotable relative to said lens frame about a pivot axis;
• each of said coupling units including a first pivot coupling component provided on one of said lens frame and the respective one of said frame coupling blocks, and a second pivot coupling component provided on the other of said lens frame and the respective one of said frame coupling blocks;
• said first pivot coupling component including a pin portion that defines a pin axis parallel to said pivot axis;
• said second pivot coupling component including a limiting portion that defines a pin receiving space extending away from said one end of the other of said lens frame and the respective one of said frame coupling blocks in a direction transverse to said pivot axis, said pin receiving space having an access opening section and a pin retaining section respectively distal from and proximate to said one end of the other of said lens frame and the respective one of said frame coupling blocks;
• said pin portion being extendible removably into said pin receiving space via said access opening section so as to be pivotally disposed in said pin retaining section to permit relative pivoting movement between said lens frame and the respective one of said frame coupling blocks about said pin axis defined by said pin portion, said pin axis serving as said pivot axis when said pin portion is disposed in said pin retaining section;
• wherein said first pivot coupling component is provided on said lens frame, said second pivot coupling component is provided on the respective one of said frame coupling blocks, and
• said lens frame includes a pair of lens receiving portions, each of which is formed with a lens receiving space and a slit that extends from said lens receiving space to a respective one of said two ends of said lens frame, said eye gear further comprising a pair of lens units received removably and respectively in said lens receiving spaces of said lens receiving portions;
• said pin portion including a pair of parallel spacer segments projecting from the corresponding one of said two ends of said lens frame and disposed at two sides of a respective one of said slits, and a pair of aligned pivot segments, each connected to one end of a respective one of said spacer segments and defining said pin axis;
• said limiting portion including a pair of stop plates extending from said one end of the respective one of said frame coupling blocks and cooperating with the respective one of said frame coupling blocks to define said pin receiving space, said limiting portion being formed with a slot that is disposed between said stop plates, that is in spatial communication with said pin receiving space, and that extends in the direction transverse to said pivot axis from said access opening section toward said pin retaining section;
• said pivot segments being disposed removably in said pin receiving space and being retained pivotally therein by said stop plates, said spacer segments extending through said slot in said limiting portion and being pressed toward each other by said stop plates to constrict said lens receiving space of the respective one of said lens receiving portions for retaining the respective one of said lens units therein.
