JPH0739629U - Anti-fog waterproof mirror - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide an anti-fog waterproof mirror which is excellent in waterproofness as a whole and does not lose its anti-fog effect. [Structure] A thin heating element 2 is arranged on the back side of a mirror-1 whose back surface is waterproofed, and is fixed with a waterproof rubber 3, and a waterproof plate 4 is provided on the back side of the mirror-1 via the waterproof rubber 3 therebetween. It is an anti-fog waterproof mirror that is made by fixing. [Effect] The effect of the heating element 2 provides an antifogging effect. Further, since the waterproof rubber 3 and the waterproof plate 4 have a good waterproof effect, the antifogging effect is not impaired.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an anti-fog / water-proof mirror suitable for installation in a place where steam or moisture is generated, such as a bathroom or a washroom.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 When steam hits the mirror in a bathroom or the like, it cools and turns into water droplets, which adhere to the mirror surface and cause the mirror to fog. Therefore, it has been proposed that a heating element is fixed on the back surface of the mirror to keep the mirror warm so as to prevent the generation of water droplets and exert an anti-fog effect.

However, the above-mentioned conventional anti-fog waterproof mirror is one in which a heating element is simply fixed to the back of the mirror, and does not have a sufficient waterproof structure. Therefore, water may penetrate between the mirror and the heating element, and the antifogging effect may be impaired.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide an anti-fog waterproof mirror which is excellent in waterproof property, exhibits a sufficient anti-fog effect, and continues its effect.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 According to the present invention, a thin heating element is arranged on the back side of a mirror whose waterproof surface is waterproofed, and this is fixed with a waterproof rubber, and further, a waterproof plate is fixed on the back side of the mirror via the waterproof rubber. The above problem is solved by using an anti-fog waterproof mirror.

[0006]

[Work]

 The mirror is warmed by the action of the heating element, and there is no risk of water droplets adhering and becoming cloudy. Due to the action of the waterproof rubber and the waterproof plate, moisture does not penetrate from the back side and the mouth of the mouth, so the anti-fogging effect is not impaired.

【Example】

 A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the figure, 1 is a mirror, the surface of which is appropriately chamfered or edge-polished. In addition, the back surface is thread chamfered and coated with a waterproof material over the edges or the entire surface to ensure complete waterproofing and eliminate corrosion from the mirror edge.

The heating element 2 is fixed on the back surface of the Mira-1. As the heating element 2, for example, a thin planar heating element of a thermosetting resin obtained by reacting and curing an inorganic resin and a conductive carbon on a film and having a self-temperature control function is used.

A waterproof plate 4 made of glass or the like is fixed to the backsides of the Mira-1 and the heating element 2 via a waterproof rubber 3. As the waterproof rubber 3, silicone RTV (room temperature curable) rubber used for adhesion of electric and electronic devices, sealing, and potting is most suitable.

By adhering the waterproof plate 4 via the waterproof rubber 3, the penetration of water from the back surface is completely blocked by the waterproof plate 4, and the penetration of water from the mouth is completely blocked by the waterproof rubber 3. To be done. Furthermore, since Mira-1 is adhered to the waterproof rubber 3, even if it breaks, its fragments will not scatter. 5 is a code.

The anti-fog / waterproof mirror is mainly installed in a steamy or humid place such as a bathroom or a washroom, but normally, it is operated according to whether the lighting switch of the bathroom or the like is turned on or off. When the switch is turned on, the Mira-1 is warmed by the action of the heating element 2, so that the steam is not cooled to form water droplets and adhere to the surface of the Mira-1.

[0012]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the present invention provides an excellent anti-fogging effect by the action of the heating element, and a complete waterproof effect by the action of the waterproof rubber and the waterproof plate, so that the anti-fogging effect is impaired. It is a very useful thing that lasts without being told.
