AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention aims to create a head section and rear view device that can be designed in a compact way.

Problems solved by technology

In order to be able to arrange the electronic components with their housing in the head section, the head section must be sufficiently generous in its proportions, which makes a compact, and in particular aerodynamically optimized, design of the head section and the rear view device more difficult.

Embodiment Construction

[0006]The object of the invention is to provide a head section and a rear view device which can be designed in a compact manner.

[0007]This object is attained by a head section according to the invention by means of the fact that the housing section and the lid section tightly seal the hollow area towards the outside over at least almost the entire circumference.

[0008]Due to the fact that the hollow area is surrounded at least almost over its entire circumference towards the outside, the hollow area is protected against penetration by dirt and humidity. This makes it possible to arrange the at least one electronic unit in the hollow area without its own seal. This makes it possible to create a compact design for the head section.

[0009]In general, it is feasible to provide the electronic unit with its own housing, with which it can be arranged in the hollow area between the housing section and the lid section. However, it has been shown to be advantageous when the at least one electro...
