차량용 양면 거울 백미러의 물기 제거장치Drain device of car mirror

본 발명은 차량용 양면 거울 백미러의 물기 제거장치에 관한 것으로, 특히 우천에 백미러에 맺힌 빗물을 공기분사에 의해 제거하도록 하는 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device for removing water from a rearview mirror for a vehicle, and in particular, to remove rain water formed on the rearview mirror in rainy weather by air spraying.

일반적으로, 차량용 백미러는 차량 후방의 차량이나 사각지대를 관측하기에 편리하도록 차량 좌,우측에 부착하여 사용하고 있고, 이와 같은 백미러를 이루는 거울은 앞면쪽만을 가지는 거울을 사용하고 있다.In general, a vehicle rearview mirror is attached to the left and right sides of a vehicle so as to be convenient for observing a vehicle or a blind spot behind the vehicle, and the mirror forming the rearview mirror uses a mirror having only a front side.

이와 같은 차량용 백미러에 있어서 우천시 백미러에 빗물이 맺히게 되면, 운전자가 윈도우를 내린후 백미러의 거울면을 걸레등으로 닦아 차량안전사고에 대비하게 된다.When rainwater forms on the rearview mirror in rainy weather in the vehicle rearview mirror, the driver lowers the window and wipes the mirror surface of the rearview mirror with a rag to prepare for a vehicle safety accident.

따라서, 차량 주행중에 거울면을 닦아 차량후방 관측을 용이하게 할 수는 있으나, 거울면을 닦는 작업이 번거럽고, 거울면을 닦는 도중에는 전방을 제대로 관측하기가 어려워 차량사고를 유발할 염려가 있으며, 특히, 차량 우측의 백미러는 운전자와의 거리관계로 인하여 닦을 수 없는 문제점이 있어 우천시에는 더더욱 차량사고를 유발할 염려가 지대한 실정이다.Therefore, it is possible to facilitate the rear view of the vehicle by wiping the mirror surface while driving the vehicle, but it is cumbersome to clean the mirror surface, and it is difficult to observe the front properly while wiping the mirror surface, which may cause a vehicle accident. In addition, there is a problem that the rear view mirror on the right side of the vehicle cannot be cleaned due to the distance relationship with the driver.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 종래 우천시 백미러가 가지는 제반 문제점을 해소하기 위하여 안출한 것으로, 우천시 자동으로 양면거울에 맺힌 빗물과 습기를 제거하게 하므로써 우천시의 차량사고를 줄이도록 하기 위한 것이다.The present invention has been made in order to solve the problems of the conventional rear view mirror in the rain, so as to reduce the vehicle accidents in rainy weather by automatically removing rain and moisture formed in the mirror on both sides during rainy weather.

상기한 과제를 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 백미러 본체내에 모터에 의해 회전되는 습기센서가 부착된 양면거울과, 상기 백미러 본체 상부에 설치한 유량 센서를 가지는 유량 집수탱크와, 상기 유량 집수탱크 전면에 설치한 볼록 거울과, 상기 양면 거울 후단에 위치시킨 콤프레셔와 연결된 공기공급호스의 노즐과, 상기 모터 및 콤프레셔 작동회로부와로 구성됨을 특징으로 한다.The present invention for achieving the above object is a flow collection tank having a double-sided mirror with a moisture sensor rotated by a motor in the rearview mirror body, a flow sensor installed on the rearview mirror body, and installed on the front of the flow collection tank And a convex mirror, a nozzle of an air supply hose connected to the compressor located at the rear end of the double-sided mirror, and the motor and the compressor operation circuit part.

이와 같은 본 발명은 유량집수 탱크에 집수된 빗물의 양을 유량감지센서에 의해 감지하여 그 유량정도에 따라 모터를 작동시켜 양면거울을 회전시키고, 콤프레셔의 작동에 의해 후방으로 회전된 거울의 일측면에 공기를 불어넣어 거울에 맺힌 빗물을 제거하게 하는 것으로, 운전자의 조작없이도 양면거울에 맺힌 빗울을 자동으로 제거하게 되는 것이다.The present invention detects the amount of rainwater collected in the flow collection tank by the flow rate sensor to operate the motor according to the flow rate, and rotate the mirror on both sides, one side of the mirror rotated backward by the operation of the compressor By blowing air into the mirror to remove the rain from the mirror, it automatically removes rain from the mirror on both sides without operator intervention.

6,7 : 습기센서 8 : 스프링6,7: Moisture sensor 8: spring

9 : 스톱센서 12 : 유량센서9: Stop sensor 12: Flow sensor

백미러 본체(1)내 전방측에 양면거울(2)을 모터(M)의 축(3)에 축삽시킨 소기어(4)와 맞물린 대기어(5)의 축(5A)에 축설하고, 상기 양면거울(2)의 상,하 내,외측에 습기센서(6)(7)를 설치하되, 상기 양면거울(2) 후방 상측에 스프링(8)으로 탄설시킨 스톱센서(9)를 지지대(10)에 설치한다.On both sides of the rearview mirror main body 1, a double-sided mirror 2 is placed on the shaft 5A of the atmospheric gear 5 engaged with the small gear 4 inserted into the shaft 3 of the motor M. Moisture sensor (6) (7) is installed on the upper, lower, inner and outer sides of the mirror (2), but the stop sensor (9), which is loaded with a spring (8) on the rear upper side of the double-sided mirror (2), the support (10) Install on.

또한, 백미러 본체(1)의 상부 지지판(1A) 상방에 볼록거울(11)이 전방에 설치되고 내측에 유량센서(12)를 가지는 유량집수탱크(13)를 고정설치한다.In addition, the convex mirror 11 is installed above the upper support plate 1A of the rearview mirror main body 1, and the flow collection tank 13 which has the flow sensor 12 inside is fixedly installed.

그리고, 상기 유량센서(12), 스톱센서(9), 습기세서(6)(7) 각각의 감지신호는 모터 및 콤프레셔 작동회로부(A)내의 엔진콘트롤 유니트(ECU)에 입력케하고, 상기 엔진콘트롤 유니트(ECU) 의 출력단 각각에 모터(M)구동용 릴레이(RY1)를 작동시키기 위한 스위칭 트랜지스터(TR1)와 콤프레셔(C) 구동용 릴레이(RY2)를 작동시키기 위한 스위칭 트랜지스터(TR2)를 각각 연결하되, 상기 콤프레셔(C)와 연결된 공기 공급호스(14)의 노즐(14A)을 양면거울(2) 후방에 설치하여 양면거울(2)의 후면에 맺힌 습기를 제거하도록 구성한다. 한편, 습기센서(6)(7)는 양면거울(2)이 회전된후 본체(1) 후방에 위치하는 습기센서만 작동되도록 설계한다.The detection signals of the flow rate sensor 12, the stop sensor 9, and the moisture filter 6, 7 are input to the engine control unit ECU in the motor and the compressor operation circuit unit A, and the engine The switching transistor TR for operating the switching transistor TR 1 for operating the motor M driving relay RY 1 and the compressor C driving relay RY 2 for each output terminal of the control unit ECU. 2 ) are connected to each other, the nozzle (14A) of the air supply hose 14 connected to the compressor (C) is installed to remove the moisture formed on the rear of the double-sided mirror (2) by installing the rear of the double-sided mirror (2). . On the other hand, the moisture sensor (6) (7) is designed to operate only the moisture sensor located behind the main body (1) after the two-sided mirror (2) is rotated.

도면중 ①,②,③은 유량센서에 의한 모드로서, 유량에 따라 예컨대 30초, 2분, 5분 간격으로 스위칭 트랜지스터(TR1)를 작동시킬 수 있는 정보를 엔진콘트롤 유니트(ECU)에 입력시키도록 한다. ④는 사용자가 필요할때에만 사용하는 모드이고, 15는 작동스위치이다.①, ② and ③ in the figure are modes by the flow sensor, and input information to the engine control unit (ECU) for operating the switching transistor TR 1 at intervals of 30 seconds, 2 minutes, and 5 minutes depending on the flow rate, for example. Let's do it. ④ is the mode to use only when you need it. 15 is the operation switch.

이와 같이 구성된 본 발명은 비가 내려 양면거울(2)에 습기등이 찰 경우 유량센서에 의한 모드를 선택하고, 작동 스위치(15)를 누르면, 유량집수탱크(13)내의 유량을 유량센서(12)가 감지하여 엔진콘트롤 유니트(ECU)에 입력시킴과 동시에, 양면거울(2) 후방에 위치하는 습기센서(6) 또는 (7)에 의한 신호를 엔진콘트롤 유니트(ECU)에 입력시킨다.The present invention configured as described above selects the mode by the flow sensor when the rain is filled in the double-sided mirror (2), and pressing the operation switch 15, the flow rate in the flow collection tank 13 to the flow rate sensor 12 Senses and inputs it to the engine control unit (ECU) and simultaneously inputs a signal from the moisture sensor (6) or (7) located behind the double-sided mirror (2) to the engine control unit (ECU).

따라서, 유량에 따라 일정시간 간격으로 스위칭 트랜지스터(TR1) 를 도통시켜 릴레이(RY1)를 동작시켜 모터(M)를 구동케 하므로써 양면거울(2)이 회전되게 되고, 이때 양면거울(2)이 180°회전되어 스톱센서(9)를 누르면 트랜지스터(TR1)는 오프되어 모터(M)의 회전을 중지시키게 된다.Accordingly, the double-sided mirror 2 is rotated by conducting the switching transistor TR 1 at a predetermined time interval according to the flow rate to operate the relay RY 1 to drive the motor M. In this case, the double-sided mirror 2 is rotated. When the stop sensor 9 is rotated by 180 °, the transistor TR 1 is turned off to stop the rotation of the motor M. FIG.

즉, 유량집수탱크(13)에 집수되는 유량이 많을 경우에는 모드①을 선택하여 보다 빠른 시간 간격으로 모터(M)를 구동케하여 양면거울(2) 면에 맺힌 빗물을 후술하는 바와 같이 제거하게 되는 것이다.That is, when there is a large amount of flow collected in the flow collection tank 13, by selecting the mode ① to drive the motor (M) at a faster time interval to remove rain water formed on the surface of the double-sided mirror (2) as described below Will be.

이와 같이 스톱센서(9)의 감지에 의해 모터(M)의 회전이 중지되면, 스위칭 트랜지스터(TR2)가 도통되어 릴레이(RY2)를 구동케하여 콤프레셔(C)를 작동시키게 된다.When the rotation of the motor M is stopped by the detection of the stop sensor 9 as described above, the switching transistor TR 2 is turned on to drive the relay RY 2 to operate the compressor C.

따라서, 모터(M)에 의해 회전된 양면거울(2)의 후면에 노즐(14A)을 통해 공기가 강력하게 분사되게 되므로, 방금 회전된 양면거울(2)의 후면에 맺힌 물기가 제거되게 되고, 이때 양면거울(2) 후면의 습기센서(6) 또는 (7)이 양면거울(2) 후면의 습기제거를 인식하여 엔진콘트롤 유니트(ECU)에 입력하면, 스위칭 트랜지스터(TR2)가 오프되고, 릴레이(RY2) 접점이 절환되어 콤프레셔(C)의 작동이 중지되게 된다.Therefore, since the air is strongly injected through the nozzle 14A on the rear surface of the double-sided mirror 2 rotated by the motor M, the water formed on the rear surface of the double-sided mirror 2 that has just been rotated is removed, At this time, when the moisture sensor (6) or (7) on the rear of the double-sided mirror (2) recognizes the moisture removal on the rear of the double-sided mirror (2) and inputs it to the engine control unit (ECU), the switching transistor TR 2 is turned off, The relay (RY 2 ) contact is switched to stop the operation of the compressor (C).

그러므로, 빗물 및 습기가 제거된 양면거울(2)의 전면에 의해 우중에도 운전자가 후방차량을 용이하게 관측할 수가 있게 되는 것이다.Therefore, the driver can easily observe the rear vehicle even in the rain by the front surface of the double-sided mirror 2 from which rainwater and moisture are removed.

이상과 같이 본 발명은 비오는날 또는 습기가 많은 날에 모터 작동간격을 위한 모드선택과 작동스위치를 누르면 자동으로 양면거울의 전면에 맺힌 빗물 및 습기를 제거하게 되므로써 운전자의 후방관측이 매우 용이해져 안전사고 예방에 큰 도움을 주게 되는 특징이 있다.As described above, the present invention automatically removes the rainwater and moisture formed on the front of the double-sided mirror by pressing the mode selection and the operation switch for the motor operation interval on a rainy day or a humid day. There is a characteristic that greatly helps to prevent accidents.
