Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anordnung einer Sonderein­ richtung mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Patentanspruchs 1, die z. B. aus DE 36 05 704 C2 bekannt sind.The invention relates to an arrangement of a special direction with the features of the preamble of the claim 1, the z. B. from DE 36 05 704 C2 are known.

Dort wird ein Adapter beschrieben, der an die vorzugsweise an einer Fahrzeug-Windschutzscheibe angeklebte Halterung eines Innenrückblickspiegels ansetzbar ist und selbst als Halter für eine durch die Windschutzscheibe hindurch, also in Fahrtrich­ tung wirkende Sondereinrichtung, z. B. eine Magnetsonde für ein Navigationssystem, eine Einrichtung zur Abstands- und/oder Ge­ schwindigkeitsmessung gegenüber einem vorausfahrenden Fahrzeug oder einen Sender für Fernsteueraufgaben ausgeführt ist. Trotz seiner teilweisen Abdeckung durch den Körper des Innen­ rückblickspiegels bildet dieser Adapter einen stilistisch stö­ renden Fremdkörper im Fahrgastraum.There an adapter is described which is preferably connected to the a vehicle windshield glued bracket Interior rearview mirror is attachable and even as a holder for one through the windshield, i.e. in the driving lane tion acting special facility, for. B. a magnetic probe for a Navigation system, a device for distance and / or Ge speed measurement compared to a vehicle in front or a transmitter for remote control tasks. Despite its partial coverage by the body's interior rearview mirror, this adapter creates a stylistic disturbance foreign objects in the passenger compartment.

Es ist auch bekannt (DE 33 38 139 A1), einen Lichtsensor für die selbsttätige Abblendsteuerung eines Fahrzeug-Innenrückblick­ spiegels unmittelbar - und vom Fahrgastraum aus sichtbar - zum Fahrzeugheck hin weisend in den an die Windschutzscheibe ange­ klebten Spiegelfuß einzusetzen. Auch ist es bekannt (DE 32 21 612 A1), einen Temperaturfühler einer Klimaanlage in einen Spiegel­ fuß einzusetzen.It is also known (DE 33 38 139 A1), a light sensor for the automatic dimming control of a vehicle interior review mirror directly - and visible from the passenger compartment - to the The rear of the vehicle pointing towards the windshield use glued mirror base. It is also known (DE 32 21 612 A1), a temperature sensor of an air conditioning system in a mirror insert foot.

Schließlich sind Spiegelhalterungen bekannt (DE 34 14 279 C2), bei denen die eigentliche Schwenklagerung des Innenrückblicks­ piegels am Dachhimmel des Fahrzeugs angeordnet ist und sich eine zusätzliche, längeneinstellbare Stütze unmittelbar an der Windschutzscheibe abstützt.Finally, mirror mounts are known (DE 34 14 279 C2), where the actual pivoting of the interior rear view  mirror is arranged on the headlining of the vehicle and itself an additional, length-adjustable support directly on the Supports the windshield.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, ausgehend von einer gattungsbil­ denden Anordnung eine besonders unauffällige Unterbringung einer Sondereinrichtung zu schaffen.The invention has the task, starting from a generic arrangement a particularly unobtrusive placement of a To create special facility.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Pa­ tentanspruchs 1 erfindungsgemäß gelöst.This task is carried out with the characteristic features of Pa Claim 1 solved according to the invention.

Die kennzeichnenden Merkmale der Unteransprüche geben vorteil­ hafte Weiterbildungen der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung an.The characteristic features of the subclaims give advantage sticky developments of the arrangement according to the invention.

Indem die Wirkfläche der Sondereinrichtung unmittelbar in die mit der Windschutzscheibe in Berührung stehende Fläche der Spie­ gelhalterung eingesetzt wird, ist die Sondereinrichtung selbst vom Fahrgastraum überhaupt nicht und von außen nur schlecht sichtbar; gleichzeitig bleiben aber die Vorteile der gattungs­ bildenden Anordnung (scheibennah, im Wischfeld der Scheibenwi­ scher liegend) vollständig erhalten.By the effective area of the special facility directly in the surface of the spike in contact with the windshield gel holder is used, is the special facility itself not at all from the passenger compartment and only badly from the outside visible; at the same time, however, the advantages of the generic remain forming arrangement (near the window, in the wiping area of the window wi completely lying.

Vorzugsweise wird die Sondereinrichtung als Sensor ausgeführt sein, der eine Benetzung der Windschutzscheibe durch Nieder­ schläge erfaßt und mit seinen Signalen insbesondere eine Schei­ benwischeranlage steuert. Derartige sensorgesteuerte Anlagen sind bereits vielfach beschrieben worden; eine bekannte Bauform (DE 40 06 174 C1) umfaßt einen Infrarot-Sensor mit winklig zu­ einander stehenden Sender und Empfänger, wobei der in der Wind­ schutzscheibe reflektierte Strahlengang durch Regentropfen si­ gnifikant verändert wird, andere haben kapazitive Sensoren (z. B. DE 40 00 736 A1).The special device is preferably designed as a sensor be that of wetting the windshield by low beats recorded and with its signals in particular shit wiper system controls. Such sensor-controlled systems have already been described many times; a well-known design (DE 40 06 174 C1) includes an infrared sensor with angled to mutually standing transmitter and receiver, the one in the wind protective lens reflected beam path through raindrops si is changed significantly, others have capacitive sensors (e.g. DE 40 00 736 A1).

Eine andere Ausführung der Sondereinrichtung ist eine solche als Lichtsensor für durch die Fensterscheibe einfallendes Licht, z. B. als Referenzsensor für die Außenhelligkeit bei einer automatischen Einstellung von Instrumentenbeleuchtungen, oder auch als Empfänger einer Infrarot-Fernbedienungseinrich­ tung für die Verschlüsse des Fahrzeugs (vgl. hierzu DE 91 04 319 U1).Another version of the special facility is one as a light sensor for incident through the window pane Light, e.g. B. as a reference sensor for the outside brightness automatic adjustment of instrument lighting,  or as a receiver of an infrared remote control device device for the locks of the vehicle (cf. DE 91 04 319 U1).

Natürlich sind auch Kombinationen der vorstehend und im gattungsgemäßen Stand der Technik genannten Ausführungen technisch möglich.Of course, combinations of the above and in the generic state of the art technically possible.

Die einzige Figur zeigt in starker schematisierter Vereinfachung eine Darstellung eines Innenrückblickspiegels, in dessen auf eine Windschutzscheibe aufgeklebtem Spiegelfuß eine als Regen­ sensor ausgeführte Sondereinrichtung eingesetzt ist.The single figure shows in a highly schematic simplification a representation of an interior rearview mirror, in the a windshield glued on mirror base one as rain sensor designed special device is used.

An eine Windschutzscheibe 1 eines nicht weiter dargestellten Fahrzeugs ist eine Kontaktfläche 2 einer Spiegelhalterung 3 für einen Innenrückblickspiegel 4 aufgeklebt. Dieser ist gegenüber der Spiegelhalterung 3 in der üblichen Weise mittels eines Ku­ gelgelenks 5 schwenkbar. Innerhalb der Spiegelhalterung 3 ist ein Gehäuse oder eine Kammer 7 ausgespart, die an einer von einem umlaufenden Rand 6 der Kontaktfläche 2 hin umfaßten, zur Windschutzscheibe hin gewandten Seite offen ist.A contact surface 2 of a mirror holder 3 for an interior rear-view mirror 4 is glued to a windshield 1 of a vehicle (not shown ) . This is pivotable relative to the mirror bracket 3 in the usual manner by means of a Ku gel joint 5 . Within the mirror holder 3 , a housing or a chamber 7 is left open, which is open on a side which is surrounded by a peripheral edge 6 of the contact surface 2 and faces the windshield.

In den Spiegelfuß bzw. die Kammer 7 ist eine nur angedeutet dargestellte Sondereinrichtung 8 in Gestalt eines Infrarot-Re­ flexions-Niederschlagssensors bekannter Bauart eingesetzt. Ihre der Windschutzscheibe 1 zugewandete Wirkfläche 9 stimmt etwa mit der offenen Seite der Kammer 7 überein.In the mirror base or the chamber 7 , a special device 8 is shown in the form of an infrared Re flexions precipitation sensor of known type shown. Its active surface 9 facing the windshield 1 corresponds approximately to the open side of the chamber 7 .

Da die Spiegelhalterung 3 aus einem undurchsichtigen Material besteht, ist kein störender Seiteneinfall von Fremdlicht in die Kammer 7 möglich. Auch ist die Sondereinrichtung 8 vom Fahr­ zeuginnenraum her vollständig unsichtbar. Ferner liegt die Kon­ taktfläche 2 im Wischfeld der (des) Fahrzeug-Scheibenwischer(s). Grundsätzlich kann die Anordnung auch so betrachtet werden, daß ein die Sondereinrichtung (den Sensor) einfassendes Gehäuse einstückig mit dem Spiegelfuß verbunden ist bzw. in diesen übergeht. Since the mirror holder 3 consists of an opaque material, no disturbing side incidence of extraneous light into the chamber 7 is possible. The special device 8 is completely invisible from the vehicle interior. Furthermore, the contact surface 2 is in the wiping area of the (the) vehicle wiper (s). In principle, the arrangement can also be viewed in such a way that a housing enclosing the special device (the sensor) is connected in one piece to the mirror base or merges into it.

Die elektrische Kontaktierung der Sondereinrichtung 8 zum Fahr­ zeugbordnetz ist hier nicht weiter dargestellt; für den Fall, daß der Innenrückblickspiegel 4 durch Fremdkraft einstell- oder abblendbar sein sollte, kann die Zuleitung zur Sondereinrichtung mit den anderen Zuleitungen in einem Strang verlegt werden.The electrical contacting of the special device 8 to the vehicle electrical system is not shown here; in the event that the interior rearview mirror 4 should be adjustable or dimmable by external force, the supply line to the special device can be laid in one line with the other supply lines.

Eine vollflächige Verklebung der Kontaktfläche 2 mit der Wind­ schutzscheibe kann vorgesehen werden, wenn sichergestellt ist, daß der Kleber transparent auftrocknet (optischer Kitt). Al­ ternativ wird die Sondereinrichtung 8 eine mit dem geklebten Rand 6 der Kontaktfläche 2 fluchtende durchsichtige, ggf. ela­ stische Abdeckung ihrer Wirkfläche 9 umfassen, die dann auch einen Teil der Kontaktfläche bildet.A full-surface gluing of the contact surface 2 with the windshield can be provided if it is ensured that the adhesive dries transparently (optical putty). Al ternatively, the probe means 8 with a glued edge 6 of the pad 2 in alignment transparent, possibly comprise ela STIC cover their active surface 9, which then also forms a part of the contact surface.

Der einen Teil der Kontaktfläche 2 bildende Rand 6 der Kammer 7 ist gegenüber der Wandstärke der Spiegelhalterung 3 im Bereich der Kammer flanschartig wesentlich breiter ausgeführt, so daß er eine hinreichend große Fläche für eine dauerhafte Verklebung mit der Windschutzscheibe 1 bietet. Natürlich kann auch eine sich stetig zum Rand hin verdickende Wandstärke der Kammer vor­ gesehen oder der Rand 6 als Innenflansch ausgeführt werden.The edge 6 of the chamber 7 forming part of the contact surface 2 is of a flange-like design substantially wider than the wall thickness of the mirror holder 3 in the region of the chamber, so that it offers a sufficiently large area for permanent gluing to the windshield 1 . Of course, a wall thickness of the chamber that is constantly thickening towards the edge can also be seen or the edge 6 can be designed as an inner flange.

Es ist auch möglich, andere Bauformen von Sondereinrichtungen vorzusehen, insbesondere sehr flach bauende - z. B. einen kapa­ zitiven Niederschlagssensor -, um diese in einen aufzuklebenden flachen Fußteil einsetzen zu können, von dem die übrige Spiegel­ halterung dann in bekannter Weise abgenommen werden kann. Ferner kann die Kontaktfläche auch in bekannter Weise von einer längeneinstellbaren Abstützung gebildet sein, die nur durch das Eigengewicht der Gesamtanordnung an die Innenseite der Fen­ sterscheibe 1 angedrückt wird.It is also possible to provide other types of special devices, in particular very flat - z. B. a kapa citative precipitation sensor - in order to be able to use it in a flat foot part to be glued, from which the rest of the mirror holder can then be removed in a known manner. Furthermore, the contact surface can also be formed in a known manner by a length-adjustable support which is pressed against the inside of the window pane 1 only by the weight of the overall arrangement.
