Description

電子ミラー装置Electronic mirror device
　本発明は、車両に搭載したカメラが撮像した画像をドライバーに提示する電子ミラー装置に関する。 The present invention relates to an electronic mirror device that presents an image captured by a camera mounted on a vehicle to a driver.
　従来の電子ミラー装置として、例えば、映像表示部の前面にハーフミラーを設けた電子ミラー装置が知られている。同乗者の車内後部に収納された後席用ディスプレイの使用によりドライバーの後方視界が遮られ、ハーフミラーによる後方確認が困難となった場合に、ドライバーが電子ミラー装置の表示をハーフミラーによる表示から映像表示部による表示に切り替えて使用するものが知られている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 As a conventional electronic mirror device, for example, an electronic mirror device in which a half mirror is provided in front of a video display unit is known. If the driver's rear view is blocked by the use of the rear seat display housed in the passenger's rear of the passenger's vehicle and it becomes difficult to check the rear using a half mirror, the driver can change the display of the electronic mirror device from the half mirror display. A device that is used by switching to display by a video display unit is known (for example, see Patent Document 1).
　ハーフミラーを介して映像表示部の映像を見る場合、ハーフミラーの映像表示部側には映像表示部に表示された映像の反射像が発生する。正面からハーフミラーを介して映像表示部に表示された映像を見る場合には、この反射像により視認性が低下することはない。 When viewing the image on the image display unit through the half mirror, a reflection image of the image displayed on the image display unit is generated on the image display unit side of the half mirror. When a video displayed on the video display unit is viewed from the front via a half mirror, the reflected image does not deteriorate visibility.
　しかし、電子ミラー装置は車室内のルームミラーの取付位置に設置され、ドライバーは正面からではなく、一定の角度からハーフミラーを介して映像表示部に表示される映像を見る。この場合、ハーフミラーの映像表示部側に発生した映像の反射像により、映像の二重写りが発生し、電子ミラー装置の視認性が低下する。 However, the electronic mirror device is installed at the room mirror mounting position in the passenger compartment, and the driver sees the video displayed on the video display unit through the half mirror from a certain angle, not from the front. In this case, the double reflection of the video occurs due to the reflected image of the video generated on the video display unit side of the half mirror, and the visibility of the electronic mirror device is lowered.
　この二重写りによる視認性の低下を防止するため、ドライバーが映像表示部に表示された映像を見るときにハーフミラーからの反射像を低減するよう、ハーフミラーの角度を変えるものが知られている（例えば特許文献２参照）。 In order to prevent the degradation of visibility due to this double image, it is known that the angle of the half mirror is changed so that the reflected image from the half mirror is reduced when the driver views the video displayed on the video display unit. (For example, refer to Patent Document 2).

　本発明は、二重写りを防止した視認性のよい電子ミラー装置を提供する。 The present invention provides an electronic mirror device with good visibility that prevents double image capturing.
　本発明の電子ミラー装置は、車室内のルームミラーの取付位置に設置され、車両に搭載されたカメラが撮像した画像を表示する表示器を有する。この表示器は、映像表示面を有する映像表示部と、開口部を有する本体ケースと、本体ケースの開口部を閉口するミラー体と、を有する。本体ケースは、映像表示面が開口部に向くように映像表示部を収容している。ミラー体は、映像表示面に対向する面の反対側の面に設けられた第１のミラーを含み、本体ケースの開口部の上方に上昇移動可能に本体ケースに連結されている。 The electronic mirror device of the present invention has a display that is installed at a position where a room mirror is installed in a vehicle interior and displays an image captured by a camera mounted on the vehicle. The display includes a video display unit having a video display surface, a main body case having an opening, and a mirror body that closes the opening of the main body case. The main body case accommodates the video display unit so that the video display surface faces the opening. The mirror body includes a first mirror provided on a surface opposite to the surface facing the video display surface, and is coupled to the main body case so as to be movable upward above the opening of the main body case.
　本発明によれば、ミラー体を本体ケースの開口部の上方に上昇移動させることにより映像表示部に表示された映像を直接見ることができ、ハーフミラーによる二重写りを防止した視認性のよい電子ミラー装置を提供することができる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to directly view the image displayed on the image display unit by moving the mirror body upwardly above the opening of the main body case, and the visibility is good by preventing double reflection by the half mirror. An electronic mirror device can be provided.

The holding portion 5C is pivotally supported on the shaft support portions 5A2 and 5A3 by hinges 5C1 and 5C2. As shown in FIG. 5, the hinge 5C3 pivotally supports the mirror body 5B so that the middle portion of the lower side of the rotation can be rotated horizontally with respect to the holding portion 5C in a state where the mirror body 5B is rotated upward. Yes. That is, the hinge 5C3 supports the lower side of the mirror body 5B so as to be rotatable in the horizontal direction with respect to the holding part 5C in the middle part of the holding part 5C.
　ミラー体５Ｂの回動動作は、図４に示す本体ケースの開口部５Ａ１をミラー体５Ｂが閉口した状態で、ミラー体５Ｂの下辺側にあるツマミ５Ｂ３を持って、図４から図５のように上方に回動させながら開いていくことで行う。 The rotating operation of the mirror body 5B is as shown in FIGS. 4 to 5 with the knob 5B3 on the lower side of the mirror body 5B with the mirror body 5B closing the opening 5A1 of the main body case shown in FIG. This is done by opening it while turning it upward.
　また、ミラー体５Ｂは、図５に示すように上方に回動移動させた状態において、運転席側となる面に第２のミラー５Ｂ２を有している。すなわち、第２のミラー５Ｂ２は、ミラー体５Ｂにおいて、第１のミラー５Ｂ１とは反対側の面に設けられている。 Further, the mirror body 5B has a second mirror 5B2 on the surface on the driver's seat side in a state where it is pivoted upward as shown in FIG. That is, the second mirror 5B2 is provided on the surface of the mirror body 5B opposite to the first mirror 5B1.
　また、本体ケース５Ａの下部には、液晶ディスプレイ５０１をミラー５Ｂ２から保護するためにパッド５Ａ４、５Ａ５が設けられている。 Further, pads 5A4 and 5A5 are provided at the lower part of the main body case 5A in order to protect the liquid crystal display 501 from the mirror 5B2.
　液晶ディスプレイ５０１は、自動車１に搭載したカメラ７が撮像した自動車１の後方画像を表示する。カメラ７、液晶ディスプレイ５０１は図７に示すように制御部５０２に接続され、制御部５０２は動作プログラムを格納した記憶部５０３と、電源スイッチ（図示せず）等を操作するための操作部５０４に接続されている。 The liquid crystal display 501 displays a rear image of the automobile 1 captured by the camera 7 mounted on the automobile 1.
