Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rearview mirror technology, specifically to an intelligent connected vehicle rearview mirror. Background Technology

[0002] A smart, connected car rearview mirror is an internet-based intelligent automotive accessory. Its main structure consists of a display screen, camera, processor, and wireless module. Its function is to expand the rearview mirror's field of vision to the surroundings of the vehicle, improving driving safety and comfort. It can also connect to the internet to enable navigation, music playback, phone calls, voice control, and other functions.

[0003] The working principle of a smart, connected car rearview mirror is to transmit real-time images of the area behind the vehicle to a display screen via a camera, allowing the driver to clearly see the surroundings. Through wireless transmission technology, the rearview mirror can also connect to the internet, enabling advanced functions such as online navigation and voice control.

[0004] The primary application scenario for intelligent connected car rearview mirrors is the automotive industry. They can be installed on various types of vehicles, including private cars, commercial vehicles, taxis, and buses. In scenarios such as urban traffic congestion and highways, intelligent connected car rearview mirrors can improve the driver's driving experience and road safety.

[0005] The emergence of smart, connected car rearview mirrors is part of the development of intelligent transportation and smart cars. With the continuous development of 5G and IoT technologies, smart car rearview mirrors will become a standard feature in intelligent vehicles, improving the driver's experience and driving safety, and becoming an important component of smart city construction. Common rearview mirrors can be manually fine-tuned within the rectifier housing to adjust the reflection angle. People of different heights need to manually press the rearview mirrors to adjust them when driving. During the adjustment process, dirt from their hands may get on the rearview mirrors, and there is also the possibility of repeatedly pressing the rearview mirrors too hard and damaging them. Summary of the Invention

[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent connected vehicle rearview mirror that solves the problem of drivers of different heights needing to manually adjust the rearview mirror and the viewing angle.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent connected vehicle rearview mirror, comprising a base shell, a drive component mechanism, and a system architecture.

A rotating bearing is fixedly embedded at the center of the front end face of the right-angle folding plate. A U-shaped folding plate is rotatably mounted on the front end of the plate via a rotating bearing. A driven wheel is fixedly mounted at the rear end of the rotating bearing. A transmission belt is sleeved between the driven wheel and the driving wheel. A second servo motor is fixedly embedded at the center of the upper surface of the U-shaped folding plate. The output end of the second servo motor leads to a drive gear fixedly mounted inside the U-shaped folding plate. A rotating rod is hinged to the front end of the U-shaped folding plate. A driven half gear is fixedly mounted at the rear end of the rotating rod. The driving gear and the driven half gear are meshed and connected to each other.

[0015] Working principle: During operation, a server is created using Python's socket module to receive control information via a Wi-Fi module. The microcontroller module then parses the received information through a control program and controls the rotation of servo motors one and two via serial communication. This causes relative rotation between the right-angle folding plate and the U-shaped folding plate, as well as between the rotating rod and the U-shaped folding plate. This, in turn, controls the dual-angle rotation of the reflector fixed at the end of the rotating rod, thereby adjusting the reflector's facing angle without manual adjustment.

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects This invention provides an intelligent connected vehicle rearview mirror. It has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention provides an intelligent connected car rearview mirror. A server is created using Python's socket module to receive control information via a Wi-Fi module. A microcontroller module, through a control program, parses the received information and controls two servo motors via serial communication. This causes relative rotation between the right-angle and U-shaped folding plates, and simultaneously between the rotating rod and the U-shaped folding plate. This, in turn, controls the dual-angle rotation of the reflector fixed at the end of the rotating rod, adjusting the reflector's facing angle without manual adjustment, making it more convenient to use.

[0017] 2. This invention provides an intelligent connected car rearview mirror that uses multiple servo motors to control the movement of the rearview mirror and adjust its orientation. This eliminates the need for manual operation of the rearview mirror, avoiding the risk of getting fingerprints on the mirror surface and damaging it. Attached Figure Description
