Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a cover part opening / closing structure of a vanity mirror attached to a sun visor or the like of a vehicle.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, the cover part opening / closing structure of a vanity mirror attached to a sun visor of a vehicle is configured as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 7, in the cover opening / closing structure of the vanity mirror, at least two metal U-shaped plate springs 22 are attached to the main body 21 side, while the cover 23 is attached to the cover 23. A cam 24 that contacts the metal leaf spring 22 is integrally formed with the cover portion 23. Then, when the cover portion 23 is opened, the cam surface 24A of the cam 24 contacts the metal leaf spring 22, so that the cover portion 23 receives the force in the releasing direction from the metal leaf spring 22 and opens. On the other hand, when the cover portion 23 is closed, the cam surface 24B of the cam 24 comes into contact with the metal leaf spring 22, so that the cover portion 23 is closed in the direction of closing from the metal leaf spring 22. It receives force and is kept closed. An opening stopper (not shown) is provided as a positioning member when the cover portion 23 is opened to a predetermined position, and when the cover portion 23 is closed, a tip portion of the cover portion 23 is provided. Since the abutment piece 25 formed on the abutment abuts the main body portion 21, the closed position is regulated at that position.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the above-mentioned cover portion opening / closing structure of the vanity mirror, since it is necessary to use the metal leaf spring 22 to hold the cover portion 23 in the open and closed states, the metal leaf spring 22 is separately processed. Since it requires a process of manufacturing the same and mounting it on the main body portion 21, there is a problem that productivity is low because the number of parts increases and the number of processes increases.

In view of this, in the present invention, a holding member for holding the cover portion in the open state and the closed state is provided at the opening / closing mechanism portion where the main body portion and the cover portion are engaged in opening and closing. This is a technical issue to be solved by integrally molding the parts to reduce the number of parts and man-hours and improve the productivity of the vanity mirror with a cover.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The technical means for solving the above-mentioned problems is formed by a synthetic resin main body part to which a mirror is attached and a synthetic resin similar to the main body part, and the main body part is openably and closably attached to the main body part. In a cover part opening / closing structure of a vanity mirror having a cover part for covering and exposing the mirror, the main body part and the cover part are engaged to open / close the cover part. In the opening / closing mechanism section, a closing holding member for holding the cover section in a closed state and an opening holding member for holding the cover section in an open state are integrally formed with the main body section and the cover section. It is to make it a structure.

[0006]

[Action]

 According to the cover part opening / closing structure of the vanity mirror configured as described above, when the cover part is opened to a predetermined position, it is held in the open state by the opening holding member, while it is closed when the cover part is closed. It is held in the closed state by the holding member.

[0007]

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective external view showing a state in which a vanity mirror-1 having a cover portion is attached to a sun visor 2 of a vehicle. As shown in FIG. 1, vanity mirror-1 is embedded in the sun visor 2 in an embedded manner. The vanity mirror -1 includes a main body portion 4 to which the mirror 3 is fixed and a cover portion 6 that covers the mirror 3 and the light 5.

The opening / closing mechanism portions 7L and 7R provided for opening and closing the cover portion 6 are formed at the engaging portions of the cover portion 6 and the main body portion 4, and the cover portion 6 has an engaging piece. 8 is integrally molded. 2 is a side view showing a state in which the cover portion 6 is opened, and FIG. 3 is a side view showing a state in which the cover portion 6 is closed. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a rotary shaft 9 is integrally formed in the substantially central portion of the engaging piece 8 so as to project to the left and right respectively. It is pivotally supported in the pivot hole 10 described later. Further, projections 11A and 11B are integrally formed at two locations on the end surface of each engagement piece 8.

On the other hand, the engaging portion of the main body portion 4 is integrally formed with the convex portions 12A and 12B for engaging with the protrusions 11A and 11B and holding the cover portion 6 in the open position and the closed position. Has been done.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the engaging piece 8 of the cover portion 6. As shown in FIG. 4, the engaging piece 8 is integrally formed with the rotary shaft 9 and the projections 11A and 11B. ing. Further, FIG. 5 shows convex portions 12A and 12B formed in the engaging portion of the main body portion 4, a concave portion 12C between the convex portions 12A and 12B, and a shaft support hole 10 in which the rotary shaft 9 is pivotally supported. Is a perspective view of FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of the engaging portion of the main body portion 4 as viewed from above.

In the cover portion opening / closing structure of the vanity mirror constructed as described above, when the cover portion 6 is opened from the closed state of FIG. 3 as shown in FIG. 2, the protrusion of the engaging piece 8 is formed. Since the cover portion 11A rides over the convex portion 12B and is positioned at the concave portion 12C between the convex portions 12A and 12B, the cover portion 6 has the protrusion 11A of the engaging piece 8 and the convex portions 12A and 12B of the main body portion 4. Is held in the open position by. That is, the protrusion 11A and the protrusions 12A and 12B serve as the open holding member described in claim 1. Next, when the cover portion 6 is opened as shown in FIG. 2 and is closed as shown in FIG. 3, the protrusion 11B of the engaging piece 8 rides over the convex portion 12A, and the gap between the convex portions 12A and 12B is increased. Since the positioning is performed by the concave portion 12C, the cover portion 6 is held in the closed position by the protrusion 11B of the engaging piece 8 and the convex portions 12A and 12B. That is, the protrusion 11B and the protrusions 12A and 12B serve as the closing holding member according to claim 1.

[0012]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the opening / closing mechanism for engaging the main body and the cover to open and close the cover is provided with the closing holding member for holding the cover at the closed position, and the cover. Since the opening holding member that holds the part in the open position is integrally molded with the main body and the cover part, compared to using a metal leaf spring like a conventional vanity mirror with a cover, Since the number of points is reduced and the number of assembling steps is also reduced, there is an effect that the productivity of vanity mirror can be improved.
