Abstract
Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 本発明は自動車のサイドミラーに関するものである。[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a side mirror for an automobile.
一般に、雨天の場合自動車を屋外に駐車しておくとサイ
ドミラーに水滴がイ・１着する。そして、そのまま走行
すると後方の確認ができず危険であり、発車直前にいち
いち水滴をふき取る必要があり煩雑である。そのために
、近年ミラー面にワイパを設けたものが出現しているが
、機構的に複Ｒ，（Ｉであり、好ましいものではない。Generally, if you park your car outdoors in the rain, water droplets will form on the side mirrors. If the vehicle continues to drive, it is dangerous because it is not possible to check what is behind the vehicle, and it is troublesome to wipe off water droplets immediately before starting the vehicle. For this reason, in recent years mirrors with wipers provided on the mirror surface have appeared, but they are mechanically double R and (I), which is not preferable.
本発明は上記の問題点に鑑みてなされたもので、その目
的は、二面又は三面のミラーを備えたミラーブロックを

ドミラーを提供することにある。The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to rotate a mirror block equipped with two or three mirrors at a constant angle so that a clean mirror can always be seen on the surface. To provide a side mirror for an automobile having a simple structure that eliminates the burden of wiping off water droplets one by one.
以下、本発明を添付図面に従って説明する。The present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
第１図、第２図は本発明に係るサイドミラーの第１実施
例を示し、ミラーブロック１と小型モ〜り１０とボック
ス１５とから構成されている。ミラーブロック１は支持
板２の表裏面にミラー３ａ。1 and 2 show a first embodiment of a side mirror according to the present invention, which is composed of a mirror block 1, a small mold 10, and a box 15. The mirror block 1 has mirrors 3a on the front and back surfaces of a support plate 2.

位置に設置されている。3b are fixed back to back so to speak, and the support shafts 4, 4 provided on both sides of the support plate 2 are provided on the inner wall of the box 15.
．． 17 so that it can rotate freely. That is, the mirrors 3a and 3'b are installed at rotationally symmetrical positions with the support shafts 4 and 4 as rotation axes.

なわちミラー３ａ。The small motor 10 is installed in a box 15 at a position away from the rotation locus of the mirror block 1, and a belt 12 is installed between the pulley 11 fixed to the output shaft and the pulley 5 fixed to one of the support shafts 3. is installed. This small motor 10 is activated by a switch provided on the front panel of the automobile, and rotates the mirror block 1 by 1/2 rotation, that is, the mirror 3a.
３ｂが交互にボックス１５の前面開口１６に位置するよ
う第２図中時計回り方向に回転駆動する。3b are rotated clockwise in FIG. 2 so that they are alternately positioned at the front opening 16 of the box 15.
したがって、雨天の場合、駐車中に水滴がミラー３ａに

滴は時間の経過とともに乾いてしまう。Therefore, in the case of rain, if water droplets adhere to the mirror 3a while the car is parked, just before starting the vehicle, start the small motor IO, rotate the mirror block 1 by 1/2 turn, and position the mirror 3b in front of the box 15. good. While the vehicle is running, rainwater hardly adheres to the mirror 3b due to the forward movement of the vehicle, and moreover, water droplets on the mirror 3a located inside the box 15 dry up over time.

なわちミラー３ａ。FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment. In this case, the support member 6 has a triangular cross section, and has mirrors 3 on each of its three outer peripheral surfaces.
a, 3b, and 3C were provided, and a support shaft 4 serving as a rotation center was provided at the center of the support member 6. The rest of the structure is the same as the first embodiment described above, and the small motor 10 rotates the mirror 3a by 1/3.
３ ｂ 、 ３ ｃが順次ボックス１５の５旧１１６に
位置するよう時計回り方向に回転駆動される。3b and 3c are sequentially rotated in the clockwise direction so that they are located at the 5th position 116 of the box 15.

ラーは３ａ−面でもよいことはいうまでもない。As shown in FIG. 3, if a cloth 20 or an elastic body (not shown) having a blade function is hung from the ceiling of the box 15 so as to be attached to the mirror 3C, the rotation of the mirror block 1 can be prevented. Depending on the situation, the cloth 20 or the elastic body wipes off water droplets adhering to the mirrors 3a, 3l)+3C. In this way, if the cloth 20 or the elastic body is provided, the mirror may be, for example, 3a-plane, and the mirror
- By rotating the block 1 once or several times, water droplets adhering to the mirror 3a can be wiped off. In addition, the cloth 20 or the elastic body is placed in the box 15.
The configuration in which water droplets are wiped off by rotation of the mirror block 1 can also be applied to the first embodiment. In this case, it goes without saying that the mirror may have a 3a-plane.

きる。Furthermore, in the first and second embodiments, if the mirror block 1 is rotated at a certain high speed, water droplets can be removed by centrifugal force. Therefore, if this centrifugal force is used to rotate the mirror block 1 in the clockwise direction to remove water droplets, the mirror does not necessarily need to have two or three sides, but may have negative sides. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a mirror 3a is provided only on the surface of the support plate 2, and the support plate 2
Even if the output shaft of the small motor 10 is connected to the center of the back surface of the mirror 3a and the mirror 3a is rotated on a vertical plane, water droplets can be removed by centrifugal force.

ふき取る必要がなく、極めて便利である。As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention has a simple configuration in which a mirror block is rotated at a fixed angle, and a clean mirror without water droplets can always be seen on the surface. This can be easily done by operating. Therefore, there is no need to wipe off water droplets one by one, which is extremely convenient.
