Abstract

The system has a wiper blade parallel to the outside of the rear view mirror that performs horizontal or vertical wiping movements, that is held by two opposed holders (2a) integrated into a guide carriage (2) and that is held in guide grooves by two spring elements on the edges of the blade frame. The guide carriage can be moved reciprocally in base plate (3) guide grooves (3a) on both sides by two guide cranks.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Außenrückspiegel der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 genannten Art.The invention relates to a Door mirrors the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.

Eine gute Sicht nach hinten durch den Außenspiegel ist ebenso wichtig wie die Sicht durch die Front- und Heckscheibe.A good view through to the rear the outside mirror is just as important as the view through the front and rear windows.

Bei Front- und Heckscheiben sind Reinigungseinrichtungen seit vielen Jahren Standard.For front and rear windows are Cleaning equipment has been standard for many years.

Es sind auch Wischersysteme für Außenspiegel bekannt, die entweder durch umlaufende Zahnriemen, rotierende Wischerarme oder Hin- und Herbewegende Wischblattführungen ein Wischblatt über die Spiegeloberfläche bewegen, wie z.B. aus der DE 198 26 634 A1 oder DE 42 13 506 .Wiper systems for exterior mirrors are also known, which move a wiper blade over the mirror surface, for example from the surface, either by rotating toothed belts, rotating wiper arms or reciprocating wiper blade guides DE 198 26 634 A1 or DE 42 13 506 ,

Nachteilig an den bekannten Wischereinrichtungen für Außenspiegel ist es, daß die Wischblätter nebst Halter und Führungselementen zu sichtbehindernd auf der Spiegeloberfläche montiert sind und hinter dem Spiegelrahmen zu platzraubend konstruiert sind und somit die Spiegelverstellung zu sehr einschränken.A disadvantage of the known wiper devices for exterior mirrors is it that the Wiper blades and Holders and guide elements are too obstructed on the mirror surface and behind the mirror frame are too bulky and thus the Restrict mirror adjustment too much.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Außenrückspiegel zu liefern, dessen Spiegeloberfläche durch eine Wischereinrichtung zu über 90 % gereinigt wird und dem Benutzer in der Ruhestellung nicht in das Blickfeld gerät und konstruktiv einfach gehalten ist.Object of the present invention is to have an outside rearview mirror to deliver whose mirror surface is cleaned to over 90% by a wiper device and does not come into view of the user in the rest position and is constructive is kept simple.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Außenrückspiegel nach dem Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.This task is done through an exterior rearview mirror solved according to claim 1.

Im Ruhezustand befindet sich das Wischblatt (1) fast unsichtbar zur Fahrzeuginnenseite bei Horizontalbetrieb oder am unteren Rand bei Vertikalbetrieb auf der Spiegeloberfläche.The wiper blade is at rest ( 1 ) almost invisible to the inside of the vehicle in horizontal mode or at the lower edge in vertical mode on the mirror surface.

Die Rückspiegelwaschanlage kann separat aktiviert werden oder in Kombination mit der Frontscheibenwaschanlage.The rear-view mirror washing system can be activated separately or in combination with the windscreen washer system.

Durch Deaktivierung des Wisch- Waschsystems wird die Spiegelbesprühungsanlage (4) direkt und die Spiegelwischanlage nach Ablauf eines Wischvorgangs (eine Hin- und eine Herbewegung) abgeschaltet.By deactivating the wiping-washing system, the mirror spraying system ( 4 ) directly and the mirror wiper system is switched off after a wiping process (a back and forth movement).

Das fast unsichtbare am Spiegelrand angebrachte Wischblatt (1) wird von zwei gegenüberliegenden Wischblatthaltern (2a) aufgenommen und durch zwei Federelemente (1b), die an den Rändern des Wischblattrahmens (1a) befestigt sind, in je einer Führungsnut (2e) in den Wischblatthaltern gegen axiale Verschiebung arretiert.The almost invisible wiper blade attached to the edge of the mirror ( 1 ) is held by two opposite wiper blade holders ( 2a ) and two spring elements ( 1b ) on the edges of the wiper blade frame ( 1a ) are fastened in a guide groove ( 2e ) locked in the wiper blade holder against axial displacement.

Zugleich sorgen die Federelemente für den notwendigen Druck des Wischblattes auf die Spiegeloberfläche.At the same time, the spring elements ensure for the necessary Pressure of the wiper blade on the mirror surface.

Die zwei gegenüberliegenden Wischblatthalter, die das Wischblatt aufnehmen und über die Spiegeloberfläche bewegen, sind mit einem Wischerführungsschlitten (2) zu einer Einheit kombiniert. Der Wischerführungsschlitten mit vier Führungskulissen (2c) wird in vier Führungsnuten (3a) in der Grundplatte (3) in zwei Gegenrichtungen beweglich gelagert. Er wird von einem umlaufenden Zahnriemen (3b), der mit einer Ausbuchtung (3c) versehen ist, in eine Hin- und Herbewegung versetzt. Der Zahnriemen wird von einer Antriebsrolle (3f) und einer Umlenkrolle (3d) in eine umlaufende Bewegung versetzt. Zwei Mitnehmerstifte (2d) am Wischerführungsschlitten werden dabei im Wechsel von der Ausbuchtung des Zahnriemens jeweils in eine Richtung bewegt.The two opposite wiper blade holders, which hold the wiper blade and move it over the mirror surface, are connected to a wiper guide slide ( 2 ) combined into one unit. The wiper guide slide with four guide links ( 2c ) is in four guide grooves ( 3a ) in the base plate ( 3 ) movably mounted in two opposite directions. It is supported by a rotating toothed belt ( 3b ) with a bulge ( 3c ) is provided in a reciprocating motion. The toothed belt is driven by a drive roller ( 3f ) and a pulley ( 3d ) set in a circular motion. Two drive pins ( 2d ) on the wiper guide carriage are moved alternately in one direction from the bulge of the toothed belt.

Beim Passieren des Eingangsbereichs der Antriebs- und Umlenkrollen klinkt die Zahnriemenausbuchtung den einen Mitnehmerstift aus und beim Passieren des Ausgangsbereichs der Umlenkrolle den anderen Mitnehmerstift wieder ein, sodaß eine Hin- und Herbewegung des Wischerführungsschlittens zustande kommt.When passing the entrance area the drive and deflection pulleys click the toothed belt bulge one driver pin out and when passing the exit area the deflection roller the other driver pin again, so that an outward and moving the wiper guide carriage comes about.

Die Antriebs- und Umlenkrolle werden jeweils auf einer in der Grundplatte (3) verankerten Welle gelagert. Die Antriebsrolle wird über ein eingearbeitetes schrägverzahntes Zahnrad und ebenfalls schrägverzahntes Ritzel eines Elektromotors (3e) angetrieben. Der Elektromotor ist in die Grundplatte eingesetzt. Der Elektromotor wird über einen Endabschalter (3g) gesteuert. Für die kalte Jahreszeit ist empfehlenswert eine Spiegelglasheizung anzuwenden.The drive and deflection roller are each on a in the base plate ( 3 ) anchored shaft. The drive roller is driven by an integrated helical gear and also helical pinion of an electric motor ( 3e ) driven. The electric motor is inserted in the base plate. The electric motor is switched off by a limit switch ( 3g ) controlled. For the cold season it is advisable to use a mirror glass heater.
