ABSTRACT:
A detachable two-piece temple (10) having a front piece (12) swivelly attached to the back of an eyeglass frame (80) and a back piece (40) that is quickly, easily and securely attached and detached from the front piece (12). The front piece (12) has extending from its rear surface a resilient locking rod (22), that includes a lock notch (24), and a guide rod (30). The back piece (40) includes a locking rod cavity (50) sized to accept and retain the rod (22), a guide rod cavity (52) that is sized to accept and retain the rod (30), and a locking-rod release opening (54) that has a lock notch catch (56). When the back piece is inserted into the front piece, the locking rod (22) and guide rod (30) enter their respective cavities. When fully entered, the lock notch (24) slips upwardly into the lock notch catch (50) to securely hold the two pieces together. To release the two pieces, the lock notch (24) is depressed while the back piece (40) is pulled away from the front piece (12). The temple (10) can be used to enhance fashion glasses by allowing temples of various colors and patterns to be used with eyeglass frames. The temple may also be designed to serve as safety glasses by attaching to the front and back pieces (12)(40), a top safety shield (60) and a side safety shield that prevent foreign objects from entering the area of the eyes.
