Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a control gear for adjustment of an external rearview mirror, comprising a body fixed in a suitable detail of the coachwork, a support attached to said body and movable in two planes or about two axes, to which support the mirror is fixed, a tubular part extending through said coachwork detail, a control handle arranged at the inne_c end of said tubular part, and trans ⁇ mission means arranged between said handle and said movable support. It is already known to provide control gears for rearview mirrors and the like with a tubular passage means and to dispose in said tube wires or the like which at one end are actuated by a handle and at the opposite end act upon the rearview mirror.
  • the object of this invention is to provide a device which is simplified by reduction of the number of rods and permits mounting in one hole and also permits simple adjustment and which is of such a nature that the risk of the. irror being subjected to the influence of the speed wind is reduced.
  • the essential characteristic of the new device is that the transmission means consist of a rotatable as well as axially displaceable rod extending through the tubular part and an arm which is articulated with the eccentrically offset outer end of said rod and rigidly secured to the support, in which axial displacement of the rod causes the support to move about one axis and rotation of the rod causes the support to move about the second axis, that the control handle is non-rotary relative to the rod axis by means of a pin or the like fitted at the inner end of the rod but is pivotally / nie.
  • Fig 1 is a perspective view diagonally showing the device in assembled condition from the outside
  • Fig 2 is a partial section of the mounted bed prior to the mounting of the control rod
  • Fig 3 shows the outer portion of- Fig 2 from the other side
  • Fig 4 is a top plan view of the mobile parts of the device and the nut sleeve.
  • the device comprises a body consisting of a tube 1 at the outer end of which there is attached a housing 2 fc a support 3 which is movable in two planes and to which a rearview mirror is intended to be attached in a per se known manner.
  • the tube 1 which is intended to extend through a car door or other detail A of the coachwork, is at its inner end connected with a nut sleeve 4 which carries a control handle 5 and retains the device to the car door.
  • the mobile components of the device are three in number and consist of the aforementioned control handle 5, a control rod 6 and said support 3.
  • the control handle includes a grip portion 7 and at the end thereof two parallel pins 8 and 9.
  • the control rod 6 comprises a straight part 10 extending through the tube 1 of the body and the nut sleev 4. At. the end of the part 10 there is a bore 11 through which the pin 8 of the handle is intended to extend. At the opposite end of the rod is an angled portion 15 which supports an eccentrically situated ball socket 13.
  • the control rod is so mounted in the tube of the body and the nut sleeve 4 attached thereto that can turn about its longitudinal axis and also be displaced axially. .
  • the support consists of a cylindrical part 14 frcr which two diametrically opposite pins 15 extend. Attache:: to- the part 14 is an arm 16 which at its free end supports a ball 17 to be received in the ball -socket 13.
  • the pins 15 of the support 3 are mounted between twc washers 18 and 19, respectively, fitted in the housing 2 and provided with opposite arc-shaped recesses. These washers are -provided with elongate openings oriented transversely cf the recesses for the pins 15, whereby the support can be- swung on an axis X extending through the pins 15.
  • the washers are rotatable relative to the hc ⁇ sir.c and the support 3 can therefore be turned on an axis ⁇ e.tend r. through the center of the washers or housing.
  • the washers bear resiliently against the pins 15.
  • the movement of the support about the first-ment. cr.ed axis X" is obtained in that the control rod 6 is turned abc t its longitudinal axis, whereby the ball socket, like a era.-..-: , will describe an arc-shaped movement and carry the ball ⁇ bearing arm 16 of the support 3 upwardly or downwardly ar.c thus turn the support 3 about the axis X.
  • the rotary motion of the rod is obtained by means of the handle 5. Since the -pin 8 extends through the roc 6 it is possible to turn the rod by turning the handle.
  • the movement of the support about the axis Y is carried out by displacing the rod 6 in axial direction. Since the ball socket 13 engages the ball 17 attached on the arm 16 axial displacement of the rod 6 will cause the support 3 and the washers 18, 19 to turn in the housing 2 about the axis Y .
  • The, axial movement of the rod is also carried out by means of the handle.
  • One 8 of the ' pins in the handle is, as mentioned, attached to the end of the rod.
  • the other pin 9 in the handle passes through a notch 20 of U-shaped cross-section in the end of the nut sleeve 4, extending in the form of the arc of a circle ' and adapted to the pin diameter and serving as a bearing for- the pin 9 which is attached to the handle 5.
  • the pin 9 will thus form a lever shaft and the rod 6 will thereby be axially displaced in the tube 1 via the pin 8.
  • the pin 9 is retained in . position because the handle is radially fixed by the other pin 8 which passes through the rod 1, which is guided in the tube 1. Because the notch 20 follcv.'s the arc of a circle around the central axis of the rod 6 be possible for the handle to turn about the pin 9, ihdepencer. of the position of rotation of the handle and the rod.

Abstract

Mecanisme de commande pour regler un retroviseur exterieur, comprenant un corps fixe a un detail approprie d'une carrosserie (A), un support (3) attache au corps et mobile dans deux plans ou autour de deux axes, auquel le miroir est fixe, une piece tubulaire s'etendant au travers dudit detail de carrosserie, une poignee de commande (5) disposee a l'extremite interne de ladite piece tubulaire et des moyens de transmission (6, 16) disposes entre la poignee et le support mobile. La caracteristique nouvelle est que les moyens de transmission consistent en une tige rotative et mobile axialement (6) s'etendant a travers la piece tubulaire (1, 4) et un bras (16) qui est articule a une extremite externe excentree (17) de la tige et fixe de maniere rigide au support (3), et que la poignee de commande n'est pas rotative par rapport a l'axe (Z) de la tige mais relie e de maniere pivotante a ladite tige (6), et que la poignee (5) est montee de sorte que, independamment de la position relative de rotation de la poignee (5) et de la tige (6), il est possible d'effectuer la rotation de la poignee et le deplacement axial de la tige.
