The upper end portion of the stay 12 is attached to the vehicle left-right direction central portion of the front end portion of the upper wall of the vehicle interior, and thereby the vehicle inner mirror device 10 is installed in the vehicle interior.

ステー12の下端部には、収容体としての略直方体形箱状のハウジング14が車両前側かつ車両左右方向中央側の部分において支持されており、ハウジング14は、ステー12の下端部を中心として車両前後方向、車両左右方向及び上下方向に回動可能にされている。また、ハウジング14内は、車両後側に開口されている。   A substantially rectangular parallelepiped box-shaped housing 14 as a container is supported at the lower end of the stay 12 at the front side of the vehicle and in the center in the left-right direction of the vehicle. The housing 14 is a vehicle centered on the lower end of the stay 12. It can be rotated in the front-rear direction, the vehicle left-right direction, and the vertical direction. Moreover, the inside of the housing 14 is opened to the vehicle rear side.

ハウジング14内の車両後側端部には、ミラーとしての矩形板状のハーフミラー16が固定(収容)されており、ハーフミラー16は、ハウジング14の開口を閉塞している。ハーフミラー16の鏡面(光反射面)は、車両後側に向けられており、ハーフミラー16は、鏡面によって車両後側(表側)からの光を車両後側に反射可能にされると共に、車両前側(裏側)からの光を車両後側に透過可能にされている。下記モニタ18が作動されない際には、ハーフミラー16に車両前側から光が到来しないことで、車両の乗員(例えば運転手)がハーフミラー16の鏡面による反射光(鏡像)によって車両後側(車室の後部、車両の後方、左斜め後方及び右斜め後方)を視認可能にされている。   A rectangular plate-shaped half mirror 16 serving as a mirror is fixed (accommodated) to the vehicle rear side end in the housing 14, and the half mirror 16 closes the opening of the housing 14. The mirror surface (light reflecting surface) of the half mirror 16 is directed to the vehicle rear side, and the half mirror 16 can reflect light from the vehicle rear side (front side) to the vehicle rear side by the mirror surface. Light from the front side (back side) can be transmitted to the rear side of the vehicle. When the following monitor 18 is not actuated, light does not arrive at the half mirror 16 from the front side of the vehicle, so that a vehicle occupant (for example, a driver) can see the vehicle rear side (vehicle image) by the reflected light (mirror image) from the mirror surface of the half mirror 16. The rear part of the room, the rear of the vehicle, the left diagonal rear and the right diagonal rear) are made visible.

ハウジング14内の車両後側端部には、ハーフミラー16の車両前側において、表示手段としての矩形板状のモニタ18(液晶表示装置)が固定(収容)されており、モニタ18の画面(液晶表示画面)は、上下方向に平行に配置された状態で、車両後側に向けられている。モニタ18は、作動されることで、画面に画像を表示可能にされており、モニタ18が作動された際には、ハーフミラー16に車両前側から当該画像(光)が到来することで、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光によって当該画像を視認可能にされている。   A rectangular plate-like monitor 18 (liquid crystal display device) as a display means is fixed (accommodated) at the vehicle rear side end portion in the housing 14 on the vehicle front side of the half mirror 16. The display screen) is directed to the rear side of the vehicle in a state of being arranged parallel to the vertical direction. The monitor 18 is actuated so that an image can be displayed on the screen. When the monitor 18 is actuated, the image (light) arrives at the half mirror 16 from the front side of the vehicle. However, the image can be visually recognized by the transmitted light of the half mirror 16.

モニタ18には、制御装置20が電気的に接続されており、制御装置20には、撮像手段としてのカメラ22が電気的に接続されている。カメラ22は、車両の後部外側に設置されており、カメラ22は、制御装置20の制御により作動されることで、車両の後側(車両の後方、左斜め後方及び右斜め後方)を撮像する。これにより、制御装置20の制御によりモニタ18が作動されることで、カメラ22が撮像した画像がモニタ18の画面に表示されて、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光(モニタ18の表示画像)によって車両の後側を視認可能にされている。   A controller 20 is electrically connected to the monitor 18, and a camera 22 as an imaging unit is electrically connected to the controller 20. The camera 22 is installed outside the rear part of the vehicle, and the camera 22 is operated under the control of the control device 20 to image the rear side of the vehicle (the rear side of the vehicle, the diagonally left rear side, and the diagonally right rear side). . Thereby, the monitor 18 is operated under the control of the control device 20, whereby the image captured by the camera 22 is displayed on the screen of the monitor 18, and the occupant is transmitted by the transmitted light of the half mirror 16 (display image of the monitor 18). The rear side of the vehicle is visible.

ハウジング14の下面の車両左右方向中央部には、変更部としての矩形板状の操作レバー24が固定されており、操作レバー24は、下側に突出されて、乗員の手指によって車両後側及び車両前側に移動操作可能にされている。操作レバー24が乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に移動操作される際には、ハウジング14(ハーフミラー16及びモニタ18を含む)が操作レバー24と一体に車両後側に回動されて、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きが上側に変更される。操作レバー24が乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に移動操作される際には、ハウジング14(ハーフミラー16及びモニタ18を含む)が操作レバー24と一体に車両前側に回動されて、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きが下側に変更される。   A rectangular plate-shaped operation lever 24 as a changing portion is fixed to the center of the lower surface of the housing 14 in the left-right direction of the vehicle. The operation lever 24 protrudes downward, and the rear side of the vehicle and It can be moved to the front of the vehicle. When the operation lever 24 is moved to the vehicle rear side by the occupant's finger (for example, index finger), the housing 14 (including the half mirror 16 and the monitor 18) is rotated to the vehicle rear side together with the operation lever 24. Thus, the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the screen of the monitor 18 are changed to the upper side. When the operation lever 24 is moved to the front side of the vehicle by the occupant's fingers (for example, thumb), the housing 14 (including the half mirror 16 and the monitor 18) is rotated together with the operation lever 24 to the front side of the vehicle. The opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the orientation of the screen of the monitor 18 are changed to the lower side.

操作レバー24の車両前側面には、作動手段を構成する作動部としてのONスイッチ26が設けられており、ONスイッチ26は、乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に押圧操作可能にされている。ONスイッチ26は、制御装置20に電気的に接続されており、ONスイッチ26が押圧操作されることで、制御装置20の制御によりモニタ18が作動される。   An ON switch 26 is provided on the vehicle front side surface of the operation lever 24 as an operating part constituting an operating means, and the ON switch 26 can be pressed to the vehicle rear side by a passenger's finger (for example, index finger). ing. The ON switch 26 is electrically connected to the control device 20, and the monitor 18 is operated by the control of the control device 20 when the ON switch 26 is pressed.

操作レバー24の車両後側面には、作動手段を構成する解除部としてのOFFスイッチ28が設けられており、OFFスイッチ28は、乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に押圧操作可能にされている。OFFスイッチ28は、制御装置20に電気的に接続されており、OFFスイッチ28が押圧操作されることで、制御装置20の制御によりモニタ18の作動が解除される。   An OFF switch 28 serving as a release portion constituting the operating means is provided on the rear side surface of the operation lever 24. The OFF switch 28 can be pressed to the front side of the vehicle by a passenger's finger (for example, thumb). Yes. The OFF switch 28 is electrically connected to the control device 20, and the operation of the monitor 18 is released by the control of the control device 20 when the OFF switch 28 is pressed.

次に、本実施形態の作用を説明する。   Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

以上の構成の車両用インナミラー装置10では、モニタ18が作動されない際に、乗員がハーフミラー16の鏡面による反射光によって車両後側を視認可能にされる。一方、モニタ18が作動された際に、カメラ22が撮像した画像がモニタ18の画面に表示されて、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光によって車両の後側を視認可能にされる。   In the vehicle inner mirror device 10 having the above-described configuration, the occupant can visually recognize the rear side of the vehicle by the reflected light from the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 when the monitor 18 is not operated. On the other hand, when the monitor 18 is operated, an image captured by the camera 22 is displayed on the screen of the monitor 18 so that the occupant can visually recognize the rear side of the vehicle by the transmitted light of the half mirror 16.

ここで、操作レバー24が乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に移動操作されることで、ハウジング14が車両後側に回動されて、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きが上側に変更される。一方、操作レバー24が乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に移動操作されることで、ハウジング14が車両前側に回動されて、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きが下側に変更される。   Here, when the operation lever 24 is moved to the rear side of the vehicle by an occupant's finger (for example, index finger), the housing 14 is rotated to the rear side of the vehicle, and the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the monitor The orientation of the 18 screen is changed to the upper side. On the other hand, when the operation lever 24 is moved to the front side of the vehicle by the passenger's fingers (for example, thumb), the housing 14 is rotated to the front side of the vehicle, the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the screen of the monitor 18 The direction of is changed to the lower side.

また、操作レバー24の車両前側面のONスイッチ26が乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に押圧操作されることで、モニタ18が作動されて、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光によって車両の後側を視認可能にされる。一方、操作レバー24の車両後側面のOFFスイッチ28が乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に押圧操作されることで、モニタ18の作動が解除されて、乗員がハーフミラー16の鏡面による反射光によって車両後側を視認可能にされる。   In addition, when the ON switch 26 on the front side of the vehicle of the operation lever 24 is pressed to the rear side of the vehicle by an occupant's finger (for example, an index finger), the monitor 18 is activated and the occupant is driven by the transmitted light of the half mirror 16. The rear side is made visible. On the other hand, when the OFF switch 28 on the rear side surface of the operation lever 24 is pressed to the front side of the vehicle by the occupant's fingers (for example, thumb), the operation of the monitor 18 is released, and the occupant is reflected by the mirror surface of the half mirror 16. The rear side of the vehicle is made visible by light.

このため、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きの変更とモニタ18の作動及び作動解除とを別々に行うことができ、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを変更しなくてもモニタ18の作動及び作動解除を行うことができると共に、モニタ18の作動及び作動解除を行わなくてもハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを変更できる。これにより、例えば、車両の停車時に、モニタ18の作動を解除することで、乗員がハーフミラー16の鏡面による反射光によって車室の後部(特に後部座席(例えばベビーシートの子供))を視認可能にできると共に、車両の走行時に、モニタ18を作動させることで、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを変更しなくても、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光(モニタ18の表示画像)によって車両の後側を視認可能にできる。   For this reason, the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and the change of the screen orientation of the monitor 18 and the operation and release of the monitor 18 can be performed separately, and the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and The monitor 18 can be activated and deactivated without changing the orientation of the screen of the monitor 18, and the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the monitor can be activated without deactivating and deactivating the monitor 18. The orientation of the 18 screens can be changed. Thereby, for example, when the vehicle is stopped, the operation of the monitor 18 is canceled, so that the occupant can visually recognize the rear part of the passenger compartment (especially the rear seat (for example, the baby seat child)) by the reflected light from the mirror surface of the half mirror 16. In addition, by operating the monitor 18 when the vehicle is running, the occupant can transmit the light transmitted through the half mirror 16 without changing the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the screen of the monitor 18. The rear side of the vehicle can be made visible by the display image of the monitor 18).

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 2 (A) shows a vehicle inner mirror device 50 as a vehicle mirror device according to a second embodiment of the present invention in a side view seen from the right side of the vehicle, and FIG. 2 (B). These are shown by the front view which looked at the inner mirror apparatus 50 for vehicles from the vehicle rear side.

本実施形態に係る車両用インナミラー装置50は、上記第1実施形態と、ほぼ同様の構成であるが、以下の点で異なる。   The vehicle inner mirror device 50 according to the present embodiment has substantially the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, but differs in the following points.

図2(A)及び図2(B)に示す如く、本実施形態に係る車両用インナミラー装置50では、ハウジング14の車両後側かつ下側の端部外周に、車両左右方向中央部において、ONスイッチ26が設けられており、ONスイッチ26は、操作レバー24の車両後側かつ上側に配置されると共に、乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に押圧操作可能にされている。   As shown in FIGS. 2 (A) and 2 (B), in the vehicle inner mirror device 50 according to the present embodiment, the rear end of the housing 14 and the lower outer periphery of the housing 14 are arranged at the center in the vehicle lateral direction. An ON switch 26 is provided. The ON switch 26 is disposed on the rear side and the upper side of the operation lever 24, and can be pressed to the front side of the vehicle by the occupant's fingers (for example, thumb).

ハウジング14の車両前側かつ下側の端部外周には、車両左右方向中央部において、OFFスイッチ28が設けられており、OFFスイッチ28は、操作レバー24の車両前側かつ上側に配置されると共に、乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に押圧操作可能にされている。   An OFF switch 28 is provided on the outer periphery of the end portion of the housing 14 on the vehicle front side and the lower side, in the vehicle left-right central portion, and the OFF switch 28 is disposed on the vehicle front side and the upper side of the operation lever 24. A pressing operation can be performed on the rear side of the vehicle by a passenger's finger (for example, an index finger).

ここで、操作レバー24が乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に移動操作されることで、ハウジング14が車両後側に回動されて、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きが上側に変更される。一方、操作レバー24が乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に移動操作されることで、ハウジング14が車両前側に回動されて、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きが下側に変更される。   Here, when the operation lever 24 is moved to the rear side of the vehicle by an occupant's finger (for example, index finger), the housing 14 is rotated to the rear side of the vehicle, and the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the monitor The orientation of the 18 screen is changed to the upper side. On the other hand, when the operation lever 24 is moved to the front side of the vehicle by the passenger's fingers (for example, thumb), the housing 14 is rotated to the front side of the vehicle, the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the screen of the monitor 18 The direction of is changed to the lower side.

また、ハウジング14の車両後側かつ下側のONスイッチ26が乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって車両前側に押圧操作されることで、モニタ18が作動されて、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光によって車両の後側を視認可能にされる。一方、ハウジング14の車両前側かつ下側のOFFスイッチ28が乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって車両後側に押圧操作されることで、モニタ18の作動が解除されて、乗員がハーフミラー16の鏡面による反射光によって車両後側を視認可能にされる。   The ON switch 26 on the rear side and the lower side of the housing 14 is pressed to the front side of the vehicle by the occupant's fingers (for example, thumb), so that the monitor 18 is activated and the occupant is transmitted by the transmitted light of the half mirror 16. The rear side of the vehicle is made visible. On the other hand, when the OFF switch 28 on the front side and the lower side of the housing 14 is pressed to the rear side of the vehicle by the occupant's finger (for example, the index finger), the operation of the monitor 18 is released and The rear side of the vehicle can be visually recognized by the reflected light.

このため、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きの変更とモニタ18の作動及び作動解除とを別々に行うことができ、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを変更しなくてもモニタ18の作動及び作動解除を行うことができると共に、モニタ18の作動及び作動解除を行わなくてもハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを変更できる。これにより、例えば、車両の停車時に、モニタ18の作動を解除することで、乗員がハーフミラー16の鏡面による反射光によって車室の後部(特に後部座席(例えばベビーシートの子供))を視認可能にできると共に、車両の走行時に、モニタ18を作動させることで、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを変更しなくても、乗員がハーフミラー16の透過光(モニタ18の表示画像)によって車両の後側を視認可能にできる。   For this reason, the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and the change of the screen orientation of the monitor 18 and the operation and release of the monitor 18 can be performed separately, and the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and The monitor 18 can be activated and deactivated without changing the orientation of the screen of the monitor 18, and the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the monitor can be activated without deactivating and deactivating the monitor 18. The orientation of the 18 screens can be changed. Thereby, for example, when the vehicle is stopped, the operation of the monitor 18 is canceled, so that the occupant can visually recognize the rear part of the passenger compartment (especially the rear seat (for example, the baby seat child)) by the reflected light from the mirror surface of the half mirror 16. In addition, by operating the monitor 18 when the vehicle is running, the occupant can transmit the light transmitted through the half mirror 16 without changing the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the screen of the monitor 18. The rear side of the vehicle can be made visible by the display image of the monitor 18).

また、乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によって操作レバー24を車両後側に移動操作して、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを上側に変更できると同時に、乗員の手指(例えば親指)によってONスイッチ26を車両前側に押圧操作して、モニタ18を作動させることができる。このため、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを上側に変更する操作とモニタ18を作動させる操作とを1回の操作で行うことができる。   Further, the operation lever 24 is moved to the rear side of the vehicle by the occupant's finger (for example, forefinger), and the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and the screen of the monitor 18 can be changed to the upper side. The monitor 18 can be activated by pressing the ON switch 26 toward the vehicle front side with a finger (for example, thumb). For this reason, the operation of changing the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16, and the screen of the monitor 18 to the upper side and the operation of operating the monitor 18 can be performed by a single operation.

さらに、乗員の手指(例えば親指)によって操作レバー24を車両前側に移動操作して、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを下側に変更できると同時に、乗員の手指(例えば人差し指)によってOFFスイッチ28を車両後側に押圧操作して、モニタ18の作動を解除できる。このため、ハウジング14の開口、ハーフミラー16の鏡面及びモニタ18の画面の向きを下側に変更する操作とモニタ18の作動を解除する操作とを1回の操作で行うことができる。   Further, the operation lever 24 is moved to the front side of the vehicle by the occupant's fingers (for example, thumb), and the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and the screen of the monitor 18 can be changed to the lower side. The operation of the monitor 18 can be released by pressing the OFF switch 28 toward the rear side of the vehicle with a finger (for example, an index finger). For this reason, the operation of changing the orientation of the opening of the housing 14, the mirror surface of the half mirror 16 and the screen of the monitor 18 to the lower side and the operation of releasing the operation of the monitor 18 can be performed by a single operation.
