を生じた。Conventionally, when a rear endoscope is provided in a mirror body so as to be tiltable, a bracket provided in the mirror body (a) (b) is provided with a spherical convex portion (C) extending forward as shown in Fig. 1. and a mounting portion (g) having a recess (f) corresponding to the shape of the convex portion (C) at the rear of the mirror housing (e) into which the rear endoscope (d) is fitted; The convex portion (C) is fitted into the concave portion (f) of the attachment portion (g), thereby allowing the rear endoscope (d) to be held tiltably within the mirror body (a). However, in this case, the backsight a (d
) to prevent it from easily coming off from inside the mirror body (a), so that the fit between the recess (f) and the convex part (C) is strong, so a large force is required to tilt the rear scope (d). It was necessary to add For this reason, when tilting the rear endoscope (d) using a motor, etc., a large motor with high output must be used, which increases manufacturing costs and lining costs, and makes the motor, etc. expensive. )
This caused a problem in that it became larger than necessary and became a nuisance.

In addition, when adjusting the angle of the rear scope (7) with respect to the vertical direction, that is, the vertical direction, the rear scope (7) can be adjusted using bearings (9) (9) provided at both ends of the swing shaft (4). This is done by swinging about the swing axis (4) and tilting the rear endoscope (7) back and forth in the vertical direction.

である。As described in detail above, the rear endoscope device according to the present invention has a mounting shaft installed vertically or structurally in one direction within the mirror body, and a swing shaft orthogonal to the mounting shaft relative to the mounting shaft. Since we decided to install the rear scope so that it can swing freely in the right angle direction and also to swing the rear endoscope on the front side of this swing shaft by means of a bearing, we can swing the swing shaft with respect to the mounting shaft. By swinging the reflector against the rear end mirror, the rear endoscope can be tilted back and forth in both the vertical and horizontal directions. In addition, when tilting the rear scope in this way, compared to the conventional case where a spherical convex part and a corresponding concave part are strongly fitted and the rear scope is tilted using that point as a fulcrum, the rear scope is tilted. The endoscope can now be tilted with less force, and the adjustment of the angle of the rear endoscope in both the vertical and structural directions becomes extremely easy.

以上に大きくなるということもなくなるのである。Furthermore, since the rearview mirror is designed to be tilted with a weak force, when tilting the rearviewscope using a motor, a small battery-powered motor with low output can suffice. This eliminates the need for the mirror body to become larger than necessary due to a motor or the like.
