Rearview mirror mounting device

Abstract

The invention provides a rearview mirror mounting device capable of obtaining the rectification effect even when the distance between the side surface of the vehicle and the rearview mirror housing isfar away. The rearview mirror mounting device comprises a housing portion provided with a mirror body inside, a connecting portion extending from the side surface of the vehicle toward the outside inthe vehicle width direction, and connecting the housing portion with a side surface of the vehicle; and a protruding portion which protrudes upward from the connecting portion between the side surface of the vehicle and the housing portion, and is formed to have a longer length in the front-rear direction of the vehicle than the width direction of the vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a rearview mirror mounting device for visually confirming the rear of a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Patent Document 1 discloses a rearview mirror mounting device including: a mirror housing to which the mirror is attached; and a mirror base that holds the mirror housing on the side of the vehicle via a support arm portion . In this rear-view mirror mounting device, a protrusion extending from the side (vehicle side) of the mirror base to the side (horizontal direction) in the vehicle width direction is arranged, and is configured to be able to be attached to the rear-view mirror housing. The driving wind flowing between the mirror base and the mirror base is rectified. [0003] prior art literature [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent No. 5607181 [0005] However, in the configuration of Patent Document 1, since the protrusions are arranged on the side surface (side surface of the vehicle) of the m...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the configuration of Patent Document 1, since the protrusion is arranged on the side of the mirror base (vehicle side), the distance between the mirror housing and the mirror base on the side of the vehicle is far away. In this case, the rectification effect due to the protruding part is reduced, and thus the traveling wind may be difficult to flow between the inner side wall of the mirror housing and the side of the vehicle.

For example, the running wind settled between the inner side wall of the mirror housing and the side surface of the vehicle flows into the outer side of the mirror housing (the front corner side), thereby flowing toward the outer side of the mirror housing. The amount of traveling wind (air) increases, and it may be difficult to suppress the flow of the traveling wind that has been peeled off at the front corner of the mirror housing and is drawn into the rear of the mirror housing.
