Abstract

The present invention provides a direction indicator interlocking type door mirror that can be used in one direction and that can be easily checked for safety while turning a door mirror of a car as needed in a blind spot direction as needed.
In a state in which a door mirror is attached to a vehicle body, the mirror 2 is horizontally long and the end portion on the vehicle body side is formed in an appropriate curve so that the side surface 4 of the vehicle body is reflected, and the opening of the door mirror housing 1 is also shaped like a mirror. The mirror 2 formed therein is stored, the mirror 2 formed therein is stored, and a drive function and device for blind spots that direct the door mirror to the blind spot direction are added to the rotational drive device for storing the door mirror or the mirror angle variable device in the door mirror housing, Their activation and return are linked with the operation of the direction indicator lever. Now when turning left or right, or changing the diagonal line, the door mirror temporarily moves in the blind spot direction, the curved part of the mirror 2 protrudes, the blind spot and the side 4 of the vehicle body are visible, and the field of view is expanded, making it possible to confirm safety while driving Easy to do.

Description

  The present invention relates to an automobile door mirror.

  When driving in a car, when checking the safety of the left, right, rear, and rear side, use both a door mirror and other attached mirrors, and also check with direct visual inspection. It is required and the burden of labor is large.

  If necessary, the door mirror can be repositioned in the direction of the blind spot of the door mirror at any time, so that the blind spot at that time can be seen and the field of view can be widened. By doing so, the safety confirmation is made easier and the above-mentioned problems are solved.

  In the present invention, with the door mirror attached to the vehicle body, the mirror of the door mirror is a horizontally long polygon or ellipse in addition to those of the conventional specification.For the left side, a certain part of the right end of the mirror is used for the right side. Forms a certain portion of the left end portion of the mirror with a frame in an appropriate curve so that the side surface of the vehicle body is reflected in the lateral direction toward the back side of the mirror. The opening of the door mirror housing is also formed according to the shape of the mirror, and the mirror formed therein is connected to the internal devices and stored. A blind spot rotation drive function and device for causing the door mirror to face in the blind spot direction are added to the rotary drive apparatus for storage in which the door mirror performs the storing operation by lateral rotation. Alternatively, a blind angle varying function and device for directing the curved mirror of the door mirror in the blind angle direction is added to the mirror angle varying device in the door mirror housing. These functions and devices are activated only when the direction indicator lever is operated, and return when the direction indication is released, because the direction indicator of the automobile is activated. In this way, by interlocking with the operation of the direction indication lever, a direction indication interlocking type door mirror is obtained. By doing this, when the left turn or right turn of the car, changing the oblique line, the door mirror is temporarily held in the direction of the blind spot in advance and held for a certain period of time, and the majority of the blind spot and the curved part of the end of the mirror protrude, The left and right rear can be seen with a wide field of view including the side of the car body. This makes it possible to assist the blind spots on the left and right and back each time, making it easier to confirm the safety while driving a car and solving the problems described above.

  The direction indication interlocking type door mirror of the present invention automatically appears in the door mirror having the same blind spot at that time by operating the direction indication lever when the vehicle is traveling, turning left, turning right, or changing oblique lines. The visible image is a mirror of the same door mirror, so the sense of distance is the same. Further, when the door mirror is directed in the blind spot direction, the curved portion of the mirror end protrudes, so that a wide field of view including the blind spot and the side of the vehicle body can be obtained. This makes it easier to confirm safety. Driving effort will be reduced. This helps improve safety while driving.

  In addition to the conventional specification, the mirror of the door mirror should be horizontally long. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the door mirror is positioned at the blind spot, and the left mirror is a fixed part of the right end of the mirror. In the lateral direction toward the back side of the mirror, it is formed with an appropriate curve with a frame so that the side surface of the vehicle body can be seen. For the right side, a fixed portion of the left end portion of the mirror is formed in the same manner as described above. The opening of the door mirror housing is also formed according to the shape of the mirror. The formed mirror is combined and stored with the devices in the door mirror housing. A rotation drive function and device for blind spots for directing the door mirror in the blind spot direction are added to the rotary drive device portion for storing the door mirror. Alternatively, a blind angle varying function and device for directing the curved mirror of the door mirror in the blind angle direction is added to the mirror angle varying device in the door mirror housing. Those functions and devices add their electric circuits to the direction indicator system electric circuit in order to interlock with the operation of the direction indicating lever. In addition to the above-mentioned interlocking, the electric circuit has a manual operation function that can be activated only when necessary by operating a changeover switch, etc. A plurality of switching functions may be provided. When the door mirror is at the normal angle setting position, a shielding plate may be provided on the support column 3 or the vehicle body side surface 4 so that the surrounding image is not reflected in the curved portion of the end portion of the mirror or is not visible.

  An embodiment attached to a vehicle body will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. What is seen in FIG. 3 is a left-side door mirror in which the mirror 2 is housed in the door mirror housing 1, and when the door mirror is switched to the blind spot direction, the right end portion of the mirror 2 is appropriately viewed so that the side of the vehicle body can be seen. It is curved. FIG. 4 shows a left side door mirror in which the mirror 2 is housed in the door mirror housing 1, and the door mirror is switched at a constant angle in the blind spot direction by the operation of the direction indicator lever. The curved portion of the mirror 2 protrudes so that it can be seen.

  Since the direction indication interlocking type door mirror of the present invention is configured as described above, when operating the direction indication lever of an automobile, it is possible to see the blind spot according to the time including the side of the vehicle body. Safety confirmation becomes easier, and it is possible to use it for regular use, reducing labor and improving safety.

An example as an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
It is a perspective view from the front of the curved mirror for the left side. It is a perspective view from the top of the curved mirror for the left side. It is a perspective view of the place where the direction indication interlocking type door mirror for the left side attached to the vehicle body is housed in a normal setting position. FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a left-side direction indication interlocking type door mirror attached to the vehicle body rotated by a fixed angle in a blind spot direction from a normal setting position.
