Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention mainly relates to a fender mirror for a vehicle.

When driving a vehicle, it is an essential condition to check behind the vehicle. Therefore, it is welcome that the optimal position for checking the rear visibility while driving is located on the left and right funda.

However, although seven ender mirrors are designed to suit the design of the vehicle, they all protrude above the fender, which has a negative effect on the vehicle design. For this reason, door mirrors mounted on the doors of vehicles have recently become popular, but checking the rear visibility using these door mirrors is not considered a safe position because the line of sight is significantly different from the front. Furthermore, the mirrors become dirty due to mud, raindrops, and other deposits while driving, making it difficult to check and posing a danger to safe driving.
Furthermore, it is impossible to wipe the dirty mirrors while the vehicle is in motion. Mirrors that have the disadvantages of use as described above have a large air resistance when traveling at high speeds such as highways, which impedes high speed travel and reduces fuel efficiency. The present invention satisfies the requirements required for vehicle mirrors as described above, and will be described in detail in the following embodiments with reference to the drawings.

As shown in Figure 1 of the drawings, a movable body 2 housing a rearview mirror emerges from a storage chamber 1 formed in a fender a of the vehicle and appears inside and outside the fender a, and its appearance and reappearance are mainly controlled remotely from the driver's seat. It is carried out depending on. The retractable device forms a storage chamber l in the ender a shown in FIGS. 2 and 8, the volume of which is large enough to accommodate the movable body 2;
is formed integrally with fender a, or a separately provided one is attached to a hole drilled in fender a and fixed using a normal fixing method.

The storage chamber 1 does not necessarily have to be formed, but may form a space in which the movable body 2 can be stored. However, since the wheels are located at the bottom of the storage chamber 1, there is a possibility of mud splashing up and causing problems, so it is necessary to form a mold with the chamber wall to block mud splashing. Therefore, the base of the movable body 2 is connected to a part of the front part of the storage chamber 1 by means of a fulcrum shaft 8 which movably fixes the base of the movable body 2 in the front direction of the storage chamber 1, that is, toward the front of the vehicle. It is formed by the upper surface part C and the side part d of the movable body 2, and a mirror 4 is attached to the rear part so as to be able to change the angle. The rear surface part e of the movable body 2 is in close contact with the rear part of the storage chamber l, and seals the storage chamber l together with the other upper surface part C1 and the side surface part d, and even when it appears, the immersion f
Also keep it tightly closed. In that immersion f, fender 8
Ideally, it should be perpendicular to the surface of the fender, but it is also possible to make it look good by letting it ooze out from the fender 8 surface. Furthermore, since the state in which the movable body 2 appears is inclined outward from the side surface of the fender a, an outer upper periphery C8 of the movable body 2 is formed in the shape of the side surface at of the fender a. The form and function of the movable body 2 have been explained as in the previous section. The crank lever 6 is driven by the electric motor that drives the shaft 8 and the transmission 9 to move the movable body 2 into the storage chamber 1. During the operation leading to the retraction f, the ideal storage room l is located at the rear of the storage room l, that is, at the position where it comes into contact with the mirror 4 of the movable body 2.
The abutment part with the mirror 4 is placed horizontally through the tension spring 11 so as to be elastically pushed out from the hole lO made in the escape part around the opening of the mirror 4, and the main part matching the width of the mirror 4 is A long wiping body 1 made of flexible material such as rubber and having a pointed cross section on one side.
The two pointed parts are arranged so as to be able to abut against the mirror 4. As a result, the wiping body 12 moves as the movable body 2 moves in and out.
It comes into elastic contact with the mirror 4 and performs the work of wiping off deposits. Furthermore, at the same time, the nozzle 18 that contains the cleaning liquid is connected to the mirror 4.
radiate to. The emission timing is such that when the wiping body 12 is pushed by the bent end 14 of the rear surface e of the movable body 2, it stops, and when it comes off the end 14, the nozzle 18 starts emitting radiation.
A major change limit switch 15 of the suction electric pump connected to the wiping body 12 is brought into contact with the shaft of the wiping body 12. As an example of the wiping body 12 described above, as shown in FIG. 4, the wiping body 12 is a wiper set of a single-type vehicle windshield wiper that elastically contacts the mirror 4 in the storage chamber l to perform the wiping operation. and a structure in which the wiper rotates in an arc shape around the central axis 16, or a wiping body 12 having a wiping effect such as a brush or sponge that contacts the area of the mirror 4. will be established. Further, the upper surface portion C of the movable body 2 is extended to the opening portion to form an eaves portion 21 to seal the storage chamber. Alternatively, the cleaning liquid may be radiated onto the mirror 4 depending on the timing, and as an example, a deicing liquid, hot water, or high-pressure hot air to melt the frozen surface of the mirror 4 may be radiated through a nozzle or the like. Furthermore, the present invention provides a wiping body 12 for wiping off the soiled surface of the headlight hh when the retractable headlight h is immersed in the vehicle, and an electric motor 1 for driving the wiping body 12 in a storage room. (Hend Dry) of l) Provided at a position where it comes into contact with h. In FIG. 5 of the embodiment, the bin ◆8 is provided at the tip of the crank 7 fixed to the crankshaft 8 of the electric motor and transmission 9 provided inside or outside the storage chamber 1 formed under the surface of the fender 8, is slidably fitted into an elongated hole 14 bored in the lower part of the movable body 2, and as the crank 7 rotates, the bottle 18 slides in the elongated hole 17, and the movable body 2 is inserted into the storage chamber l.
move. Furthermore, in order to move the movable body 2, the rotation of the worm gear 18 is controlled by the connection between the worm gear 18 and the gear 19, which are connected to the electric motor and the transmission 9. Depending on the fixation, the movable body 2
appears in storage room 1.

Furthermore, as an example, in the mechanism for operating the electric motor and the like shown in FIG. 6, electrical system failures often occur. Therefore, a traction member 20 that can be remotely controlled from the driver's seat
And crank? Alternatively, by being connected to the shaft of an electric motor that is directly connected to the crankshaft 8, remote control can be performed □manually so that it can be towed and retracted or stored in the storage chamber l. As an example, the movable body 2 shown in FIG. 7, which appears and retracts from the storage chamber l formed in the fender a, has a normal-shaped rearview mirror k on the fender 8 surface and the lower part when it appears. The upper surface C of the rearview mirror is modeled 1 on the surface of the fender 8, and is sunk into the storage chamber 1 together with the movable body 2 so as to seal the storage chamber. As an example, a rearview mirror k shown in FIG. 8, which has a normal shape and whose upper surface C and one side mas are modeled after the shape of the fender a, is formed on the upper part.
The movable body 2 is modeled after the fender 8 surface and has a shape that seals the storage chamber 1, and the neck 21 between the rearview mirror and the movable body 2
A screw screw 28 is fitted into a screw hole 22 provided therein, and the screw screw 28 is rotationally driven by being connected to an electric motor and a transmission 9.

In its appearance, the movable body 2 is perpendicular to the surface A of the vehicle, and in the retraction f, the upper surface C and one side surface OK of the rearview mirror are shaped perpendicular to the surface A of the vehicle. do. Although not shown as an example, the movable body 2 has an upper surface C or a side surface C of a part thereof.
A device in which only a 0 etc. is formed and a mirror is installed below it is also used.

Furthermore, as an example, the movable body 2 and the mirror 4 shown in FIG. 9 and four shapes formed independently form a storage chamber l of the same shape in the storage form, from which the movable body 2 appears and disappears. . Like the Prince, the present invention mainly applies to 7-engine vehicles.
The movable body 2 and the mirror 4, which are movable from the base of the storage chamber L formed under the plane, are movable and retractable, and the movable body 2 and the mirror 4 are equipped with a wiping body 12 that removes mud, water droplets, etc. adhering to the mirror 4 when the movable body 2 and the mirror 4 are moved in and out.
4 mirror surfaces with good visibility are obtained, and when visibility is poor, such as during rain or dense fog, the mirror surfaces are repeatedly removed and cleaned. Cannot be seen in high mirror visual position. For this reason, the upper limit position of the movable body 2 is set at the height of a normal mirror.

Furthermore, when driving at high speeds such as highways, the movable body 2 can be immersed in the storage chamber 1 or partially exposed on the fender 6 to eliminate air resistance.
