Embodiment Construction

[0023] Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

[0024] figure 1 It is a schematic front view of the vehicle 1 equipped with the external environment sensor unit 10 of this embodiment.

[0025] The external sensor units 10 are respectively provided on the left and right side edge portions under the front portion of the vehicle body.

[0026] exist figure 1 In the figure, only the external sensor unit 10 provided on the front right side of the vehicle is shown, but the external sensor unit 10 is similarly provided on the front left side of the vehicle. The external sensor unit 10 is connected via a main bracket 12 (refer to Figure 2 to Figure 6 ) is mounted on a frame member not shown on the vehicle body side. Horizontal and substantially rectangular openings 3 are formed at the left and right lower edges of the bumper front 2 of the front bumper of the vehicle 1 . The ambient sensor unit 10 is provided at a rear posit...

Abstract

Provided is an outside sensor unit of a vehicle that can adjust the direction of the outside sensor without causing a decrease in aesthetics from the outside. The outside sensor unit includes an outside sensor (11), a main bracket (12), a support bracket (13), and a cover member (16). The main bracket (12) is attached to a vehicle body. The support bracket (13) supports the outside sensor (11) andis attached to the main bracket (12) rotatably adjustably. The cover member (16) covers an outer circumference in an outside detection direction of the outside sensor (11). The main bracket (12) hasa base wall (12Aa) that is attached to the support bracket (13) rotatably adjustably and an attachment seat (12Bl-2, 12Br-2) that is arranged at a position which is offset in the outside detection direction of the outside sensor (11) with respect to the base wall (12Aa). The cover member (16) is attached to the attachment seat (12Bl-2, 12Br-2).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an external sensor unit of a vehicle provided with an external sensor such as a millimeter-wave radar. Background technique [0002] In recent years, driving support systems such as automatic braking systems have been put into practical use. For the driving support system, external sensors such as millimeter-wave radar that monitor the state of the vehicle's surroundings are used. In such a system, in order to ensure the detection accuracy of the external environment sensor, it is important to provide the detection surface of the external environment sensor in an appropriate direction facing the vehicle. [0003] Therefore, an external environment sensor capable of adjusting the orientation of the detection surface has been proposed (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-317507). [0004] For the external sensor, it is effective to provide a mechanism for adjusting the pointing direction...
