AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current rearview mirrors in automobiles create significant blind spots, obstructing the driver's view and posing safety hazards, particularly for children, contributing to a substantial number of traffic accidents.

Method used

A rearview mirror system that projects external images onto a reflective surface using a convex lens, which is then refracted onto a display board within the vehicle using a concave lens, eliminating the need for a traditional reflective surface and reducing the mirror's size, thereby minimizing obstruction.

Benefits of technology

The system provides a safer driving experience by ensuring unobstructed driver vision while maintaining rearview functionality, enhancing safety for both drivers and pedestrians.

Abstract

According to the automobile rearview mirror without the blind area, an image outside an automobile is projected to the reflective mirror faces through the convex lens and then refracted to the corresponding reflective mirror faces through the reflective mirror faces, corner projection of the image is completed, and finally the image outside the automobile is projected to the image display plate in a cab so that the requirement of a driver for observing the driving environment outside the automobile can be met.

Description

[0001] Field

[0002] The invention relates to a rearview mirror without blind spots for automobiles, and belongs to the technical field of plastic and glass processing. Technical Background

[0003] The current rearview mirrors of cars block the driver's front view to a large extent, so rearview mirrors will bring safety hazards to driving, and bring dangers to the driving of vehicles and pedestrians on the road. Network data: "There are 500,000 traffic accidents caused by motor vehicle blind spots every year in the world, and most of the victims are children. One third of them are caused by the blind spots of rearview mirrors." In modern society with advanced transportation technology, there is an urgent need for a solution for rearview mirrors without blind spots. Summary of the invention

[0004] The automobile rearview mirror without blind spots of the present invention projects the image outside the vehicle onto a reflective mirror surface through a convex lens, and then the reflective mirror surface refracts the image onto a corresponding reflective mirror surface to complete the corner projection of the image, and finally projects the image outside the vehicle onto a display board in the cab to meet the driver's need to observe the driving environment outside the vehicle. Since the automobile rearview mirror without blind spots has only one objective lens and a housing outside the vehicle, it is much smaller than the current reflective rearview mirror, and will not cause the driver's side and front vision to be blocked, which not only meets the driver's rearview needs, but also improves driving safety.

[0005] The beneficial effects of the present invention are simple process, high efficiency and safety, and the application of the rearview mirror without blind spots in automobiles has a positive significance for safe driving of automobiles. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0006] Figure 1 It is a cross-sectional view of a rearview mirror without blind spots of a car, wherein 1 is a car body, 2 is a shell of the rearview mirror without blind spots of a car, 3 is a reflector, 4 is a concave lens, 5 is a convex lens, and 6 is an image display board.

[0007] Figure 2 The cross-sectional view and imaging principle diagram of the rearview mirror without blind spots of the car are shown in FIG. 1, the car body, 2, the shell of the rearview mirror without blind spots of the car, 3, the reflector, 4, the concave lens, 5, the convex lens, 6, the image display board, 7, the simulated refraction line, 8, the image outside the car, and 9, the image inside the car.

[0008] Implementation Methods

[0009] Convex lens 5, reflector 3, concave lens 4, image display board 6, etc. are installed in the housing of rearview mirror without blind spot of automobile 2, and fixed on the body of automobile 1. When the image outside the automobile 8 appears within the range of convex lens 5, the image will be projected onto reflector 3, and then the image will be projected at the corner through the corresponding reflector. The image will be projected onto image display board 6 through concave lens 4, and the transmission path is as simulated refraction line 7.

Claims

1. The unobstructed rearview mirror of the present invention projects the image outside the vehicle onto the display board in the cab.

2. As described in claim 1, the unobstructed rearview mirror of the automobile is composed of a convex lens, a reflector and a concave lens.
