JPH09224794A - L-type mirror reflecting virtual image in reverse of right and left - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make this mirror enabling an objet behind oneself to be seen likewise as seeing it directly, by metal-plating a recessed surface inside a metallic plate bent to the right angle. SOLUTION: This mirror reflects the virtual images in the reverse of right and left sides. To devise a means enabling the virtual images of all objects in the front of this mirror to be reflected in the reverse of right and left sides, if viewing them by bringing the eyes to a position 2 through this mirror 1 whose recessed surface inside the metal plate bent to the right angle is metal- plated. Using this mirror as a full-length mirror allows the user to view, not speak of himself or herself, also all other objects around himself or herself and all the self-movements in the reverse of right and left sides as viewing such through a plane mirror. The principle is that two halves of this L-shaped mirror reflect the virtual images from each other, thus resulting in viewing them in the reverse of right and left sides, if viewing them from a front 2 of this mirror, i.e., the usual plane mirrors' reflect the virtual images of plane symmetry to the mirror plane, while this L-shaped mirror reflects the virtual images of linear symmetry centering at a crossed line LL'.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention makes it possible to look at a virtual image in a mirror image and to see it in the same sense as if one were actually directly looking at it, because all of the virtual images appear to be opposite to each other. It's a mirror.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional plane mirror, a virtual image of a plane object is reflected on the plane of the mirror, and all objects cannot be seen in the same direction as the real object. Therefore, when you reflect yourself in a flat mirror, you will see the opposite view of your true self, so if you raise your right hand, the virtual image in the image will appear to be raising your left hand, and if you close your left eye, it will appear. For those who are, it looks as if their right eye is closed. The clock face of the wall clock placed behind me can be seen inside out.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention makes it possible to objectively see one's figure which cannot be seen by a plane mirror used as a full-length mirror, and also to directly see an object behind him. The purpose is to provide a visible mirror.

[0004]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a mirror in which left and right virtual images are reflected, and in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a mirror 1 having a metal plate plated in a concave portion inside a metal plate bent at a right angle is used. This means that if you put your eyes on the position of 2, the virtual images of all the objects in front of the mirror will appear to be mirror images.

[0005]

Since the present invention has taken the above-mentioned means, when it is used as a figure, it appears as a virtual image in the opposite direction to that seen by a plane mirror, not only as an object but also as an object other than myself as an object. All of the actions of are seen in the opposite direction.

The principle of the present invention is that right-angled L-shaped mirrors are mirrored with each other as shown in the plan view of FIG. It will be. In other words, a conventional plane mirror can see a virtual image of a plane object with respect to the plane of the mirror, but with this L-shaped mirror, the line of intersection L
The virtual image of the line object is visible around L '.

Although it is sufficiently useful to combine two plane mirrors at a right angle, it is difficult to see the combined image and the thickness of the mirror glass interferes, and the concave surface of the metal plate bent at a right angle is plated with metal. A mirror would be more effective.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The embodiments shown in the drawings will be described below in more detail.

As shown in the bird's-eye view of FIG.
If you install it on the top of the plane mirror in front of the customer 3 who sits on the chair and has set and haircut, adjust the tilt and make the screen of the TV 4 at the upper back of the customer 3 visible, Unlike the case where the image is reflected on the plane mirror when viewed from 3, the left and right screens, that is, the same screen as when watching TV directly can be seen.

The mirror of this embodiment has a length 40c as shown in FIG.
m, width 60 cm, height 60 cm put in box 5 and height about 13
Place it on a 0 cm table 6 and install it in a corner of the hair salon or barber's room as shown in Fig. 2 so that you can see your true appearance after setting and haircutting. I think it will increase your interest.

This mirror can also be used as a television viewing aid for bedridden patients, as shown in FIG. 5, in the same manner as described in 0009.

If the mirror of the present invention is used for practice of shadow boxing in boxing, more realistic practice can be performed. In other words, if you and your opponent have the same dominant hand,
You can use this mirror and use a flat mirror if your dominant hand is different.

As shown in FIG. 6, this mirror is used for a single-lens reflex camera 7
If a device is installed in front of the lens hood 8 and the virtual image reflected in the mirror is focused and the image is taken, the hidden image can be taken.

[0014]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is designed to project a virtual image which cannot be obtained by an ordinary plane mirror, and when it is used in a special situation, a virtual image in the opposite direction to that of the plane mirror can be seen. Can be done.
