En référence aux figures 2 à 4, un système de rétroviseur extérieur selon la présente invention comprend globalement un premier élément de montage 2 et un deuxième élément de montage 3. Le premier élément de montage 2 est monté sur un côté d'un véhicule tel qu'une automobile. Le second élément de montage 3 comporte une embase 32 coopérant de manière libérable avec le premier élément de montage 2. Un rétroviseur 4 (Fig. 5) est monté sur une partie d'engagement 31 de rétroviseur du second élément de montage 3. With reference to Figures 2 to 4, an exterior mirror system according to the present invention generally comprises a first mounting member 2 and a second mounting member 3. The first mounting member 2 is mounted on a side of a vehicle such that 'a car. The second mounting member 3 comprises a base 32 releasably cooperating with the first mounting member 2. A rearview mirror 4 (Fig. 5) is mounted on a mirror engaging portion 31 of the second mounting member 3.
Le premier élément de montage 2 comporte une gorge 21 délimitée par une première paroi latérale 26 et une seconde paroi latérale 25 opposée à la première paroi latérale 26. Une ouverture 27 est ménagée dans la seconde paroi latérale 25, en formant deux saillies latérales 22. Chaque saillie latérale 22 et la première paroi latérale 26 définissent conjointement une gorge de guidage 23. En outre, un renflement 24 est formé sur la première paroi latérale 26. The first mounting element 2 comprises a groove 21 delimited by a first lateral wall 26 and a second lateral wall 25 opposite to the first lateral wall 26. An opening 27 is formed in the second lateral wall 25, forming two lateral projections 22. Each lateral projection 22 and the first side wall 26 together define a guide groove 23. In addition, a bulge 24 is formed on the first side wall 26.
La partie d'engagement 31 de rétroviseur du second élément de montage 3 comporte une pluralité de trous 311 servant à fixer un rétroviseur extérieur 4, comme représenté sur la Fig. 5. L'embase 32 du second élément de montage 3 comporte deux ailes 321 reçues respectivement et de manière coulissante dans les gorges de guidage 23 du premier élément de montage 2. L'embase 32 comporte en outre une rainure 322 entre les ailes 321. The mirror engaging portion 31 of the second mounting member 3 has a plurality of holes 311 for attaching an outside mirror 4, as shown in FIG. 5. The base 32 of the second mounting member 3 comprises two flanges 321 respectively received and slidably in the guide grooves 23 of the first mounting member 2. The base 32 further comprises a groove 322 between the flanges 321.
L'embase 32 du second élément de montage 3 peut être rapidement accouplée avec le premier élément de montage 2 en insérant les ailes 321 du second élément de montage 3 dans les gorges de guidage 23 du premier élément de montage 2. Comme illustré sur la Fig. 3, lorsque l'aile respective 321 du second élément de montage 3 est entièrement reçue dans la gorge de guidage respective 23, le renflement 24 du premier élément de montage 2 appuie contre une paroi inférieure 323 délimitant la rainure 322 en retenant de ce fait le second élément de montage 3 en place par frottement. Le second élément de montage 3 peut être rapidement détaché du premier élément de montage 2 en procédant de manière inverse. Un rétroviseur extérieur 4 peut être monté sur la partie d'engagement 31 de miroir du second élément de montage 3, comme indiqué plus haut. The base 32 of the second mounting member 3 can be quickly coupled to the first mounting member 2 by inserting the wings 321 of the second mounting member 3 into the guide grooves 23 of the first mounting member 2. As shown in FIG. . 3, when the respective flange 321 of the second mounting member 3 is fully received in the respective guide groove 23, the bulge 24 of the first mounting member 2 bears against a bottom wall 323 delimiting the groove 322 thereby retaining the second mounting member 3 in place by friction. The second mounting member 3 can be quickly detached from the first mounting member 2 in a reverse manner. An outside mirror 4 may be mounted on the mirror engaging portion 31 of the second mounting member 3, as indicated above.
Le système de rétroviseur extérieur selon la présente invention permet un accouplement rapide section par section pour fixer un rétroviseur extérieur 4 sur une automobile. Lorsque le second élément de montage 3 ou le rétroviseur extérieur 4 est endommagé, le remplacement et le démontage du premier élément de montage 2 ne sont pas nécessaires pendant le remplacement du second élément de montage 3 ou du rétroviseur extérieur 4, ce qui permet une économie de temps et de coût. En outre, le second élément de montage 3 est retenu en place d'une manière fiable par frottement, car le renflement 24 du premier élément de montage 2 appuie contre une paroi inférieure 323 délimitant la rainure 322 lorsque l'aile respective 321 du second élément de montage 3 est entièrement reçue dans la gorge de guidage respective 23. The exterior mirror system according to the present invention allows quick section-by-section coupling for attaching an exterior mirror 4 to an automobile. When the second mounting member 3 or the outside rearview mirror 4 is damaged, replacement and dismantling of the first mounting member 2 is not necessary during the replacement of the second mounting member 3 or the outside mirror 4, thereby saving time and cost. Furthermore, the second mounting member 3 is reliably held in place by friction, since the bulge 24 of the first mounting member 2 bears against a lower wall 323 delimiting the groove 322 when the respective wing 321 of the second member 3 is fully received in the respective guide groove 23.
