Problems solved by technology

This arrangement is complex and energy-intensive because the force exerted by a single compression spring of high spring rate, which is provided to hold the assembly in a predetermined position, should be exceeded
Furthermore, this leads to the fact that the motor has to work very hard to overcome the resistance produced by the elastic elements, which has a detrimental effect on the consumption and service life of the motor

Embodiment Construction

[0032] An example of a foldable mirror for a motor vehicle is shown in the accompanying drawings. In said figures, this mirror has generally been indicated by the reference numeral 100 .

[0033] The rearview mirror 100 includes a base element or base 105 . The base element 105 is adapted to be mounted and fixed on the exterior of the main body of the motor vehicle (at a position suitable for viewing while driving).

[0034] The rearview mirror 100 also includes a housing 110 . The housing 110 is mounted such that it can rotate relative to the base element 105 . Mirror element 115 is received in housing 110 .

[0035] On the opposite side where the mirror element 115 is arranged, the housing 110 has a recess 135 associated with the housing 110 for the motor part 120 . The motor assembly 120 is adapted to operate in a mirror operating position (such as figure 1 shown) with the mirror non-operating position (as figure 2 As shown, the housing 110 of the rearview mirror is ...

Abstract

It comprises a base member (105) fixed to a vehicle, a housing (110) with a rearview mirror (115), a motor component (120) to rotate the rearview housing (110) relative to the base (105), two sets of ramps (10, 20) independent of each other, capable of sliding on corresponding fixed ramps (11, 21) of the base element (105) and first and second resilient means (140, 150). The ramps of the first and second sets (10, 20) have different inclinations and the resilient means (140, 150) have different spring rates from one another, depending on whether the drive housing (110) is manually or motor driven.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to rearview mirror arrangements for motor vehicles and, in particular, to a type of exterior rearview mirror that can be folded from an operating position substantially transverse to the The folding position is aligned with the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body, and can be folded from the folding position substantially aligned with the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body to an operating position substantially transverse to the vehicle body. Background technique [0002] Currently, foldable mirrors mounted on the exterior of motor vehicles often use electric drives for setting the mirror from an operating position to a folded position and vice versa. Thus, the housing accommodating the mirror assembly can be driven in rotation by electric means or by manual means to set it from the operative position to the folded position and vice versa, as circumstances or needs require. [0003] In fact, one of the main...
