- Gold windshield assemblies are increasingly large in size to house new technical equipment (brightness sensors, multifunction video cameras, etc.) and the outer limit of screen printing surrounding these sets of high windscreen is forced to encroach on this safety distance of 20 mm.
- the windshield has a degraded vision zone and is therefore not homologable in view of the non-respect of this distance.
- the invention aims to overcome this disadvantage.
- the invention provides for modifying the shape of the windshield top assembly at its attachment to the windshield to comply with the regulations on visibility.
- the present invention relates to a central rear view mirror assembly comprising a mirror articulated on an arm connected to a top set of windshield, and a screen printing area made on a windshield of a motor vehicle outside of an area of visibility through the windshield and facing a fixing face of the upper windshield assembly on the windshield.
- This upper set of windshield has a top windshield cover of suitable size to hide at least one base grouping technical equipment.
- the top windshield cover has a constriction on an end portion so that the screen printing area located opposite the attachment face is at a distance from the visibility zone. windscreen at least equal to a predefined distance.
- the optimization of the serigraphy contour is determined so that the screen printing area remains sufficiently far from the regulatory visibility zone "A" of the windshield (see Figure 1).
- the tightening of said end portion of the windshield top assembly is formed by an at least partial recess of said end portion of this assembly extending over at least one zone situated opposite the zone of visibility of the windshield;
- a closure member is arranged to close this opening
- the tightening of said end portion of the windshield top assembly is formed by a curvature of an end portion of the windshield top cover toward the inside of the top assembly of the windshield -broken;
- the tightening of said end portion of the windshield top assembly is formed by an at least partial recess of said end portion of said assembly combined with the curvature of said windshield top end portion toward the interior of the windshield top assembly;
- the tightening of said portion of the end of the windscreen top assembly is formed by a strictly partial recess of said end portion of the windscreen top assembly, extending in a form of circular segment on this end portion and located opposite the windshield visibility area.
- the invention also relates to a motor vehicle comprising a set of central rear view mirror installation as defined above.
- “Lower” “inside”, “outside”, “above”, “below” refers to locations of elements with reference to equipment positioned in standard use.
- the “longitudinal” cut of the mirror is performed in the vertical plane of symmetry of this mirror.
- identical or corresponding elements are identified by the same reference sign which refers to the (x) passage (s) of the description which mentions it (nt).
- FIG. 1 a front view of a schematic example of a motor vehicle windshield with the locations of an extended regulatory area "A” and a silkscreened area around the upper set of windshield (already commented);
- FIG. 2 is a longitudinal partial sectional view, along the plane of symmetry BB of FIG. 1, of the mirror having a recess according to the invention as performed on an end portion of the top windshield assembly of the mirror;
- FIG. 5 a side view from the inside of the passenger compartment of a vehicle, a part of the windshield assembly having a tapered end portion of the top windshield cover made at means of a curvature towards the inside of the upper set of windshield.
- FIG 2 shows, in partial longitudinal section of the rearview mirror 200 according to the plane of symmetry BB of Figure 1, a recess 25 made on one end of the windshield assembly 20.
- This mirror 200 consists of a portion 21 carrying a mirror viewed by the driver of the vehicle, an arm 22, and a top windshield assembly 20.
- This top windshield assembly 20 has a top windshield cover 24 serving as an envelope packing, and two bases of which only one 23 is shown.
- the base 23 is located near the upper limit 13 of the regulatory visibility zone "A" (see Figure 1) housing sensors of brightness and rain.
- the bases such as the base 23 are fixed on the windshield 10 by a fixing face 23f and thereby maintain the entire mirror 200 in a fixed position on the windshield 10.
- a portion 2 end of the upper windshield assembly 20 has a recess 25, shown in detail with reference to the enlargement of the zone "Z" of Figure 3.
- This recess 25 has an extension parallel to the shield baffle 10 in the form of a pseudocircular segment with a windscreen top assembly generally pseudocylindrical in shape.
- the recess 25 of the upper set of windshield 20 causes a tightening of the end portion 2e of this assembly 20 located near the upper limit 13 of the regulatory visibility zone "A" (cf. . figure 1 ).
- the limits 28 and 28 ' respectively of the upper set of windshield 20 in its end portion 2e and contour of the screen printing area 14R, are translated into limits 29 and 29'.
- These displacements allow the limits 28 and 28 'to move away from the zone of visibility limit 13 by a distance d2.
- This distance d2 is determined with a sufficient value so that the contour 29 'of the screen printing area 14R does not encroach on a safety distance d1 (20 mm in the example) around the regulatory visibility zone "A" ( see figure 1) of the windshield 10.
- the arrow F indicates the viewing direction of FIG. 4 of the rearview mirror 200 through the windshield 10.
- the mirror base 23 appears with the recess 25 materialized by a space limited by the windshield 10, the trim wafer 30g and the fixing edge 29.
- the fixing reduction distance d2 of the face 23f of the base 23 on the windshield 10 corresponds to a "retreat" upwards of the windshield 10 of the boundaries screen printing S1 and S2, namely respectively: the black screen printing limit and the checkered screen printing limit S2.
- the limits S1 and S2 of the screen printing area 14R move back to the limits S3 and S4 for, respectively, the black silkscreen limit and checkered silkscreen limit.
- FIG. 5 Another embodiment of the invention is illustrated in Figure 5 by a side view, from the passenger compartment of a vehicle, a portion of a windshield assembly 20 '.
- a portion of windshield top cover 50 is shown to present the inside of the base 23.
- This top windshield cover 50 has, at its end 51, a curvature "C" towards the inside of the upper windshield assembly 20 '.
- the limit 28 of the windshield top cover 50 is reduced by a tightening distance d3 with respect to the limit 28 corresponding to an end portion 52 of the windshield top cap 50 without curvature.
- the top windshield cover 50 is thus tightened on an end portion 2e '.
- the distance of the screen printing area 14R (see FIG. 1) placed on the windshield 10 is thus able to increase up to the value d3 the distance from the screen printing area 14R to the area of the screen. visibility "A" of the windshield 10.
- the limit of the black screen printing S1 is shifted and replaced by the screen printing limit S5.
- the reduction of the mounting surface of the base 23 is performed only on an end portion of the upper circumference breeze 20, so as to preserve any distortion of the near visibility zone, in particular located below the rearview mirror.
- the embodiments may be coupled by providing a recess of the end portion of the mirror top windshield assembly combined with a curvature of the windshield top cover of that end portion assembly. top of the windshield. Furthermore, it is possible that the reduction of the end of the windshield top assembly is performed over the entire perimeter of the windshield top assembly, this also taking into account the aesthetic criteria concerning the overall size of the windshield assembly. the top of the windshield on the windshield. In addition, the curvature of the top windshield cover can be implemented by twisting during the molding of this part.
