JPS601052A - Operating apparatus for front side mirror of automotive vehicle - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent unexpected accidents by making a front side mirror movable in fore-and-aft direction, whereby safety on both right and left sides can be fully confirmed when an automotive vehicle is driven out of a building, a crossroads, a garage and the like. CONSTITUTION:A front side mirror 7 mounted on a bonnet or a front fender of an automotive vehicle is provided with a lamp 8 at an upper part thereof and a pole 9 at a lower part thereof. The side mirror 7 is movable back and forth in a telescopic connecting cylinder 13, namely, moves back and forth by the movement of an elastic belt 4 driven by means of a driving device 15 and wound round in a spring form. An alarm buzzer 17 is also equipped. The front side mirror 7 is moved forward by actuating the driving device 15 by the operation of a switch button in a driver's compartment, at a T-roads and the like where the visibility is bad. Thus, the visual confirmation is sufficiently achieved and accidents can be prevented.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] When leaving a railway crossing, building, crossroads, garage, etc. with poor visibility, if visibility to the left and right is blocked, unexpected accidents such as a collision are likely to occur even if you drive slowly. . Therefore, in this invention, while driving the car, the driver moves the front side mirrors back and forth as appropriate to keep an eye on passersby such as children and visually impaired people in order to drive the car safely. Related to the operating device of the front side mirror of the target vehicle,
The core shaft is suspended horizontally in a storage box installed on the car body or undercarriage such as the engine bonnet or front fender.
The base of an elastic belt, which is unwound in the direction of travel of the car, is wound around the core shaft in a clockwork manner, and the upper end A ball equipped with a front side mirror and flashing colored lamps is connected upright to the top of the ball.
'l Green fr; i: Guided by a long guiding tube installed in the rear direction of i11 on the vehicle body such as the engine bonnet and front fender, the lower rear side of the ball is between the front end surface of the storage box and the lower part of the ball. It is constructed so that it can be moved forward and backward by the expansion and contraction of the lens barrel type telescopic connecting tube that has been laid out. The N-class before unwinding is inserted, and the elastic belt is wrapped around it to unwind and move forward and backward.
A rotary gear rotated by a drive device such as a motor is meshed with a rack toothed rod carved on the lower surface of the elastic belt, and the above-mentioned storage box is provided with: (A warning buzzer is installed, and its blinking colored lamp is activated by energizing the power transmission line inserted into the ball and elastic belt. In one aspect, the elastic belt is formed by embedding a carp steel plate in a belt-shaped main body made of synthetic resin or rubber, and is guided by a guide roll that rotates in contact with the upper surface of the elastic belt.

According to this invention, when a switch button is pressed from the driver's seat while driving a car, the motor is activated by a power source such as a battery and rotates a rotating gear, which causes the teeth of the rotating gear to be connected to the rack teeth of the elastic belt. The elastic belt is unwound and brought forward, and the Q-tube type telescopic connecting tube is extended accordingly, and the ball is installed on the engine bonnet, front fender, etc. of the vehicle body. The front side mirrors and flashing colored lamps can be moved forward at the same time by moving the vehicle forward along the long guide tube in the front and rear directions, making it possible to keep an eye on passersby on the left and right to ensure safe driving. , flashing colored rung and buzzer are activated,
This will alert passersby.

In addition, when the car is stopped, the rotating gear is reversely rotated, the elastic belt is rotated 1°i, and the flashing colored lamp is turned off at the same time as it is attached to the core shaft, and the buzzer 7 is also stopped. This makes it possible to move the 70-inch side mirrors back and forth as appropriate while the car is in motion to keep an eye on passersby, such as children and visually impaired people, so that the car can be driven safely. Useful.

Since conventional front side mirrors are fixed to the sides of the vehicle body, they have the disadvantage that it is difficult to sufficiently observe passersby on the left and right while the vehicle is running.

In contrast, the invention of
By eliminating the drawbacks of conventional vehicles, it is possible to move the front side mirrors back and forth as appropriate while the car is running, and to keep an eye on passersby such as children and visually impaired people, allowing the car to be driven safely. Very useful.

The invention will now be described with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.

A core shaft (3) is horizontally suspended in a storage box (2) installed on the vehicle body or chassis (1) such as the engine bonnet or front fender, and the core shaft (3) is oriented toward the direction of travel of the vehicle. The base (5) of the elastic belt (4) to be unwound is wound like a clockwork, and the front edge (6) of the elastic belt wound like a clockwork has a front side with a square cross section at the upper end.
