Abstract

PURPOSE:To allow safe checking of a wide field of sight covering side fields by equipping a back vision mirror at its side edges with a side vision mirror. CONSTITUTION:A mirror 1 is equipped with a side vision mirror, which is bent in the direction of widening the mirror surface to the right edge of a smaller back vision mirror 2 in a plane or with a radius of curvature near plane. The mirror surface of this side visions mirror 3 may be flat, curved, or hyperbolic. This widens the field of sight greatly to the side view ranges 6, compared with the conventional arrangement which permits checking merely the back view range 5 from the point of sight 7 of the maneuverer, that accomplishes safe maneuvering of a vehicle.

(Prior Art) Conventional rear view mirrors have a problem in that although the rear field of view can be confirmed, the side field of view cannot be confirmed and the field of view is narrow. There is also the problem that a flat mirror or a curved mirror with a small curvature close to it has a narrow field of view (while a curved mirror with a large curvature and wide field of view makes it difficult to get a sense of distance).

(Purpose of the Invention) The present invention aims to eliminate the drawbacks of these conventional methods, and aims to grasp the sense of distance in the rear field of view in a vehicle, and to widen the driver's viewpoint (to the side without moving). The mirror allows for safe confirmation of a wide field of view, including the lateral field of view.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the right-hand automobile rearview mirror is shown. Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the mirror body 1 in the X-Y direction of Figure 1.
The right edge of the rear view mirror 2, which has a flat surface or a small curvature close to it, is bent in the direction of widening the mirror surface to form a side view mirror 3. The mirror surface of the side mirror 3 may be flat, curved, or hyperbolic. FIG. 3 shows an X-
The rear view mirror 2 and the side view mirror 3 are created by dividing them in a sectional view in the Y direction, and then they are attached to one mirror body.

Also, the side mirror 3 can be moved to any angle as shown by the arrow using the joint with the rear mirror 2 as a movable fulcrum, and if a movable fulcrum is provided on the back of the side mirror 2, it can be moved to any angle. You can also do that. It is also possible to move the rearview mirror from the driver's seat by remote control, as is currently widely used for rear view mirrors.

This embodiment is an example of an interior rear view mirror for an automobile, and is an example in which a side view mirror 3 is formed by bending the side edges on both sides of a rear view mirror 2 having a flat surface or a small curvature close to it in a direction to widen the mirror surface. It is.

FIG. 5 shows still another embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is an example of a right-side rear view mirror for a large automobile, and is an example in which the right side edge and lower side edge of the rear view mirror 2 are curved and attached as a side view mirror 3 and a lower side view mirror 10, respectively. It is.

FIG. 6 shows an embodiment in which the present invention is attached to the fender attachment section 8 and the door attachment section 9 of an automobile rear view mirror. In all of the examples, we have described the rear view mirror on the right side, but for the rear view mirror on the left side, the left side edge can be curved in the direction of widening the mirror surface to form a side view mirror, or another mirror can be combined as shown in Figure 3. Needless to say, it is better to use a side mirror.

(Effects of the Invention) As shown in the embodiment, the present invention provides a side mirror on the side edge of a vehicle rearview mirror. With the currently widely used systems, the field of view can be significantly expanded to a side field of view 6, whereas it was only possible to check up to a rear field of view of 5. To explain this effect in detail with reference to Fig. 6, when the rear view mirror is attached to the door section 9, its rear field of view relative to the driver's viewpoint 7 is up to 5A in the currently commonly used models. However, in the present invention, it is possible to have a continuous wide field of view up to a lateral field of view of 6A.

Furthermore, despite such a wide field of view, it is possible to grasp the sense of distance in terms of the field of view, and by checking the side view with the side view mirror, the driver's viewpoint can be greatly changed when changing lanes, merging roads, etc. You can drive safely without any problems. Similarly, when the fender installation shown in Fig. 6 is installed in section 8, the driver does not have to move the car forward until he can directly check the side road conditions at intersections with poor visibility, when entering and leaving the garage, etc. The side view mirror also provides a lateral field of view of 6
You can check the field of view up to B, and the same goes for rear field of view 5 (you can get a sense of distance).

As described above, by using the present invention, the problems described in the prior art can be solved and vehicles can be driven more safely.
