Rear view mirror with indicator function

The present invention relates to a rearview mirror, and more particularly to a rearview mirror having an indicating function.

In recent years, transportation-cars have become more popular, and the total number of cars in Taiwan is rising. Therefore, safety issues when driving a car are also noticed, such as whether the indicator light when the car turns is obvious, how easy it is to be detected by the rear vehicle. More is a big problem.

A conventional rearview mirror with an indicating function is more cumbersome to install, and the brightness of the indicator light on the rearview mirror is easy to be too bright, although the rear can be obviously reminded to come to the car, but the driver himself is obstructed by the indicator light being too bright. Watching the rearview mirror creates a counter-effect on driving safety.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a rearview mirror with an indicating function that can control the brightness of the light and is easy to install.

Therefore, the rear view mirror with the indicating function includes a mirror base, a lamp housing, a light emitting member, a lens, and an adhesive member.

The lens holder includes a body and a mounting hole formed in the body.

The lamp housing is received in the mounting hole and includes a chamber having an opening, and a toroid formed by the end edge of the opening.

The illuminating member is accommodated in the chamber.

The lens is fixed to the circumference of the body and shields the opening of the chamber. The lens includes a shielding layer facing the illuminating member, a reflective layer facing the direction of the illuminating member, and a shielding layer. A light transmissive layer that surrounds and forms a pattern.

The adhesive member is adhered to the lens surface of the lamp housing and seals the light-emitting member between the lamp housing and the light-transmitting layer of the lens.

The effect of the present invention is that the shielding layer is used to shield a portion of the light emitted by the illuminating member, and the remaining light can only pass through the indicating pattern of the transparent layer to reduce the penetration of the illuminating member. The overall brightness of the layer, to avoid the situation that the light is too strong to affect the driving to view the rear of the reflective layer, and the light is mounted on the housing of the lamp housing, and then the lamp housing is The mounting holes are combined, and finally the lens and the body of the lens holder are fixedly arranged to achieve the convenience of installation.

Referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , an embodiment of the rear view mirror with an indicating function includes a lens holder 1 , a lamp housing 2 , a light emitting member 3 , a lens 4 , an optical film 5 , and a Adhesive member 6.

The lens holder 1 includes a body 11 and a mounting hole 12 formed in the body 11. The body 11 has a latching portion 111 adjacent to the mounting hole 12.

The lamp housing 2 is received in the mounting hole 12 and includes a housing 21 having an opening 211, a toroid 22 formed by the end edge of the opening 211, and a toroid 22 along the opening 211. The protrusion 23 extending outwardly and detachably is engaged with the card fitting portion 111 and a through hole 24 communicating with the chamber 21.

The illuminating member 3 is received in the chamber 21 and includes a power cord 31 that can be passed through the through hole 24 and extends through the mounting hole 12 to be connected to a power source (not shown) (see FIG. 4). In this embodiment, the illuminating member 3 is a printed circuit board (PCB, printed circuit board) having an LED (Light-emitting diode, LED for short), wherein the LED has low power consumption. The advantages of electric rate and high luminous intensity, but not limited to this.

The lens 4 is disposed on the circumference of the body 11 and shields the opening 211 of the chamber 21. The lens 4 includes a shielding layer 41 facing the illuminating member 3 and having a plurality of shielding portions 411. a reflective layer 42 in the direction of the illuminating member 3, and a transparent layer 43 constituting an indicating pattern 431, wherein the transparent layer 43 further has a plurality of transparent holes 432, each of the transparent holes 432 The plurality of concealing portions 411 are formed by the corresponding plurality of concealing portions 411, and the indication patterns 431 of the light transmissive layer 43 are arranged in an arrow shape by the light transmission holes 432.

The optical film 5 is disposed between the opening 211 and the lens 4 for masking the light transmissive layer 43 and shielding a portion of the light emitted by the illuminating member 3 to reduce the light absorbing member 3 from penetrating the light transmitting layer. 43 brightness.

The adhesive member 6 is adhered to the annular surface 22 of the lamp housing 2 on the optical film 5 and abuts against the light transmissive layer 43 of the corresponding lens 4, so that the light emitting member 3 is sealed to the lamp housing 2 and the lens. Between the light transmissive layers 43 of 4.

During installation, the illuminating member 3 is disposed in the chamber 21 of the lamp housing 2, and the power cord 31 is passed through the through hole 24, and then the optical film 5 is adhered and completely masked by the adhesive member 6. The opening 211 is fixed to the opening 21 of the chamber 21, and then the lamp housing 2 is disposed on the mounting hole 12, the bump 23 is engaged with the engaging portion 111, and the power cord 31 is extended to the body 11. Rearward, finally, the light transmissive layer 43 corresponds to the optical film 5, and the lens 4 is disposed and fixed to the body 11 of the lens holder 1 to complete the mounting work.

5 is a partial enlarged view of the indication pattern 431. It is worth mentioning that in the embodiment, the light transmissive layer 43 is formed by laser engraving the shielding layer 41 to form a plurality of transparent holes 432, and the clusters are arranged. The indication pattern 431 is not limited thereto.

In summary, the advantages of the foregoing embodiments can be summarized as follows:

1. The optical film 5 is disposed between the opening 211 of the lamp housing 2 and the light transmissive layer 43 to reduce the light of the illuminating member 3 from directly penetrating the light transmissive layer 43 and through the light transmissive layer. The plurality of light-transmitting holes 432 of 43 allow only a part of the light emitted by the light-emitting member 3 to pass through, thereby avoiding the situation that the light is too bright to affect the driving and viewing of the rear of the reflective layer 42.

The illuminating member 3 is disposed in the chamber 21 of the lamp housing 2. The peripheral wall of the housing 21 can guide the light of the illuminating member 3 in the same direction to enhance the significantness of the indicating pattern 431. Sexuality prevents the light emitted by the illuminating member 3 from diverging.

3. The above-mentioned mounting method is used to fasten the lamp housing 2 to the mounting hole 12 by the latching portion 23 being engaged with the latching portion 111. Then, the lens 4 is fixed to the mirror. The body 11 of the seat 1 is very convenient to complete the installation work, so the purpose of the present invention can be achieved.

However, the above is only the embodiment of the present invention, and when it is not possible to limit the scope of the present invention, all the simple equivalent changes and modifications according to the scope of the patent application and the contents of the patent specification are still This new patent covers the scope.
