TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of automobiles, in particular to a car rearview mirror with door opening warning function and a car. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, some high-end car models or specific configurations have begun to integrate a door opening warning system, which is generally realized through sensors (such as radar, camera or ultrasonic sensor) of the vehicle body and a central control system. When the sensor detects that an object is approaching the rear of the vehicle, the system will remind the driver or passenger through sound, light or warning on the display screen. The existing car rearview mirror mainly integrates the functions of observing the left or right rear road conditions through a flat mirror, a turn signal and an electric folding function; some existing technologies also have a scheme of installing warning lights on the car rearview mirror to achieve the reminding function, for example:
[0003] CN221293250U discloses a warning system for an outside rearview mirror, which comprises a rearview mirror and a warning unit. The rearview mirror comprises a housing connected to the vehicle body, an installation plate in a ring-shaped plate structure connected to the side of the housing facing the tail of the vehicle, and a warning unit comprising warning lights embedded on the installation plate; CN118810621A discloses a door opening warning device for a car, which comprises a car body and a car door located at the car body. The car door is provided with warning lights and sensors through an installation frame, and the warning lights are turned on to warn pedestrians through the cooperation of the warning lights and the sensors.
[0004] The above-mentioned schemes are all realized by increasing installation structures outside the rearview mirror to install warning lights and the like. Although they play a warning role to a certain extent, they change the external form of the rearview mirror and are likely to affect the performance of the rearview mirror itself. SUMMARY
[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a car rearview mirror with door opening warning function and a car, which sets a pre-door opening warning function without affecting the state of the rearview mirror itself, thereby ensuring driving safety.
