DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle door mirror device provided in a vehicle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional vehicle door mirror device, such as a vehicle door mirror device 100 shown in FIG. 8, is provided with a mirror (not shown) for visually checking the rear of the vehicle. (Not shown). An internal mechanism (not shown) is provided in the door mirror visor, and the internal mechanism is driven by receiving electric power. Here, this internal mechanism includes a storage mechanism for storing the mirror, a mirror surface angle adjustment mechanism for adjusting the mirror surface angle of the mirror, a heater mechanism for removing fogging of the mirror, a mirror surface angle detection mechanism for detecting the mirror surface angle of the mirror, and a mirror surface It comprises at least one of an anti-glare mechanism for adjusting the brightness of the reflected light and a lamp mechanism for illuminating the periphery of the vehicle door.

[0003] A plurality of cords 102 are connected to the internal mechanism, and each cord 102 has a core wire (not shown) and an insulating coating 104 covering the core wire. A metal terminal 106 is provided at the end of each cord 102, and the terminal 106 is connected to a core wire.

Further, the vehicle door mirror device 100
Has a door mirror stay (not shown), and the door mirror stay is fixed to a vehicle door (not shown). A metal stand (not shown) is provided integrally with the door mirror stay, and a support shaft (not shown) is formed on the stand. The door mirror visor is indirectly supported by the support shaft, and thereby the door mirror visor is indirectly supported by the door mirror stay.

The support shaft is cylindrical and has a through hole (not shown) formed therein. The door mirror stay is provided with a code hole (not shown) including the through hole. The cord hole communicates between the inside of the door mirror visor and the inside of the vehicle, and the plurality of cords 102 are wired from the internal mechanism to the inside of the vehicle through the cord hole.

A connector housing 108 is provided inside the vehicle, and the connector housing 108 is connected to a power supply (not shown) provided inside the vehicle. The connector housing 108 is provided with a plurality of insertion holes 110 corresponding to the plurality of terminals 106, and the plurality of cords 102 connect the connector housing 108 by fitting each terminal 106 into the corresponding insertion hole 110. Wired to the power supply. Thereby, power is supplied from the power supply to the internal mechanism, and the internal mechanism is driven.

However, in such a vehicle door mirror device 100, when a plurality of cords 102 are made to penetrate through the cord holes, the cords 102 are separated, and the work of penetrating the plurality of cords 102 into the cord holes becomes complicated. Become. In addition, since the size of the cord hole is limited to a certain value or less due to the necessity of securing the strength of the door mirror stay and the necessity of suppressing the wind noise, particularly when the number of cords 102 to be passed through the cord hole is large. This makes it difficult to penetrate the terminal of the cord 102 into the cord hole of the terminal 106. Thus, there is a problem that it is difficult to penetrate the plurality of cords 102 into the cord holes.

Further, since the terminal 106 at the end of the cord 102 is made of metal as described above,
The quality of the terminal 106 may be degraded by the contact of the terminal 6 with the cord hole (particularly, a metal through-hole).
As a result, there is a problem that the reliability of contact of the terminal 106 with the fitting hole 110 is reduced, and the reliability of connection of the cord 102 may be reduced.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8, the positions of the terminals 106 are shifted from each other in the longitudinal direction of the cords 102 by adjusting the lengths of the cords 102, and a plurality of cords 102 are passed through the cord holes in this state. By letting
It is possible to pass many cords 102 (terminals 106) through the cord holes. However, in such a case, when the door mirror visor is rotated with respect to the door mirror stay by the storage mechanism, the cord 1 having a short length is used.
02 may be pulled and damaged.

Further, when connecting a plurality of cords 102 to the connector housing 108, each terminal 1
Since it is necessary to perform the work of fitting the 06 into the corresponding fitting holes 110 one by one, the work becomes complicated and the number of work steps is large. In addition, if the terminal 106 is inserted into another insertion hole 110 that does not correspond to the terminal 106, erroneous wiring may occur, and it is difficult to check whether the wiring is correct. Therefore, there is a problem that the connection workability of the cord 102 is poor.

Here, there is a vehicle door mirror device 150 as shown in FIG. This vehicle door mirror device 15
0, a substantially cylindrical child connector 152 is connected to the ends of a plurality of cords 102 similar to the above, and this child connector 152 is provided inside the vehicle after being penetrated through the same code hole as above. The plurality of cords 102 are connected to the power supply by being fitted and connected to the fitting holes 156 of the cap housing 154 connected to the same power supply as described above. Other configurations are the same as those of the vehicle door mirror device 100 described above.

However, in such a vehicle door mirror device 150, the size of the cord hole is limited to a certain value or less as described above.
The size of 2 is also limited to a certain value or less. For this reason, a large number of cords 102 cannot be connected to the child connector 152. Therefore, when the number of internal mechanisms increases and it is necessary to connect a large number of cords 102 to a power supply,
There is a problem that a configuration using the child connector 152 and the cap housing 154 cannot be used.
