Abstract
Disclosed is an eyeglass frame and method of assembling such a frame which provides for quick and easy assembly. The eyeglass frame includes a lens supporting structure and at least one temple. For each temple the lens supporting structure includes a temple receiving member having a ramped slot. Each temple includes a means for supporting a pin so that the pin extends beyond the surfaces of the temple. In assembling the frame, the pin is aligned with slots in the temple receiving member of the lens supporting structure, and the temple is forced through these slots forcing the upper and lower walls of the temple receiving member apart until the pin is captured by a hole at the end of the ramped slots.
