Embodiment Construction

[0026] figure 1 A conventional frameless mirror 1 is shown, figure 2 It is a side sectional view of a mirror 1 that can be used as an exterior rearview mirror of a motor vehicle. The mirror 1 comprises a mirror glass 2 which is fastened on a carrier plate 3 . To ensure its proper functioning, the mirror glass 2 needs to be positioned and glued to the carrier plate 3 with high precision.

[0027] image 3 and Figure 4 A first embodiment of a frameless mirror is shown, in which image 3 is a side view, Figure 4 View for mirror glass during installation.

[0028] The frameless mirror 4 comprises a mirror glass 5 which is fixed on a carrier plate 6 . A flat electrical heating element 7 is arranged between the carrier plate 6 and the mirror glass 5 . However, this heating element 7 is optional, and an embodiment in which the mirror glass is mounted directly on the carrier plate 6 is also possible. When mounting the frameless mirror 4 , the mirror glass 5 is fastened to ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a mounting method for a frameless mirror (4), in which a mirrored glass (5) is secured to a support plate (6). Said method consists of the following steps: a support plate comprising a rim (8) is used; the mirrored glass is positioned and adhered to the support plate in which the rim is used as a stop; and the rim having a predetermined breaking point (9) is separated from the support plate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a mounting method for a frameless mirror in which the mirror glass is fixed to a support plate. Background technique [0002] Such frameless mirrors can be used in particular as exterior rearview mirrors of motor vehicles. Conventional mirrors usually have a carrier plate with a profiled edge, inside which the mirror glass is fastened. Alternatively the glass is positioned by a process that is costly and difficult to control. [0003] As mentioned, a frameless mirror is used as an exterior motor vehicle mirror, since it is characterized by a particularly attractive appearance and is smaller in size due to the missing frame. However, when mounting frameless mirrors, it is necessary to fasten the mirror glass to the carrier plate with a high degree of precision in order to comply with the specified tolerances. [0004] In practice, therefore, the precise positioning of the mirror glass on the support plate is very costly, espe...
