Abstract

The invention provides a vehicle imaging device, which comprises a camera (18) for capturing images of the rear side of a vehicle body housed inside a rearview mirror casing (14) of a rearview mirror (13). Since the objective lens (18b) of the camera (18) is arranged at a position more inside than the outer surface of the rearview mirror housing (14), it can prevent the flow from above along the outer surface of the rearview mirror housing (14) under the action of gravity. The raindrops or snow below, or the raindrops or snow flowing from the front to the rear along the outer surface of the rearview mirror housing (14) under the blowing action of the wind blown from the front of the vehicle, get on the objective lens (18b) of the camera (18) ), so that the camera function of the camera (18) can be maintained.
