Description

Back-mirror having display part of a car}

The present invention relates to a rearview mirror of a vehicle having a display unit, and more particularly, to a rearview mirror of a vehicle having a display unit for installing the display unit on the rear surface of the vehicle rearview mirror which is not in use.

In general, the rearview mirror is installed in the interior of the vehicle so that the driver can check the rear through a mirror to secure the rear view of the driver.

The rearview mirror is located in the upper center portion of the driver's front window, which is an optimal position for ensuring a quick rear view within the range that does not obscure the driver's front view.

Therefore, the driver can secure the front view as much as possible and at the same time check the rear, and the driver may adjust the rear view angle by adjusting the angle of the rear view mirror.

However, such a conventional rearview mirror of the vehicle has no access to the rear of the body opposite to the front of the mirror is installed, so "parking contact" or a taxi, written on the paper in front of the window or "cab" in the taxi In the case of wearing a separate sign or plainclothes police, if you wanted to actively inform the outsiders that you were saying "a police car", a separate label was required, such as attaching a separate warning light.

In the case of using such a display, it is very troublesome to display the contents, it is difficult to recognize the outsider, there is a problem that can not easily inform the internal situation of various and detailed cars.

In addition, the conventional car rear view mirror does not take advantage of the ease of view on the location, and the rear space is not inverted and utilized, so that a separate vehicle television is installed under the driver's seat in order to watch TV or check satellite position information. The passengers (especially the back seat passengers) were unable to lean their heads and watch for a long time, and there was inconvenience of having to carry a separate mobile phone or video mobile phone to check the telephone or internet information.

In particular, such a vehicle television installed under the driver's seat is likely to cause a large accident because the user can always watch while driving, and it is impossible to secure a forward vision when watching, which may cause further accidents. When using the road, the driver's front field of view prevented the accident caused by the mobile phone frequently.

An object of the present invention for solving the above problems is to utilize the space by installing the display unit by using the rear space of the body, and in order to inform the situation of the car to the outside, no additional signs or warning lights, etc. The present invention provides a rearview mirror of a vehicle having a display unit which makes it possible to memorize and display it when necessary.

In addition, it is possible to inform the outside of the detailed situation of the car that could not be displayed in the past while driving, and to quickly change the display contents to the desired contents even in the case of a sudden situation, enabling the occurrence of a patient, reporting a strength, or expressing the driver's intention. It is to provide a rearview mirror of a vehicle having a display unit.

In addition, another object of the present invention, by inverting and folding the body can be used as a function of a mobile phone or a video mobile phone, as well as a television or a monitor for acquiring various information, so that both the driver and passengers can watch in a convenient state. In addition, the present invention provides a rearview mirror of a vehicle having a display unit that enables the driver to view the vehicle within a range that does not allow the driver to watch while driving or damages the driver's front view.
