Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of traffic safety, in particular to a rearview mirror which is arranged on a vehicle and can be displaced to reduce the damage caused by collision. Background Art

[0002] Known vehicles are usually equipped with at least one rearview mirror to help a driver understand the surrounding road conditions, especially the situation behind.

[0003] Taking a four-wheeled vehicle as an example, the rearview mirror is located inside the vehicle body, also known as the interior rearview mirror, and is less likely to be damaged by external forces. The rearview mirror is located on the side of the vehicle body, also known as the exterior rearview mirror or side mirror, and is more likely to be damaged by external forces. If the vehicle body does not have a rearview mirror or is damaged, do not drive. Because you cannot observe the surrounding traffic conditions, people and vehicles around you are in danger.

[0004] The rearview mirror is mounted on a mirror base. The mirror base is locked to a door, or an A-pillar of the vehicle body, or a corner of a window frame. Even more, the rearview mirror is directly fixed to the front of the vehicle body or a fender. From the perspective of the width of the vehicle, the rearview mirror is the outermost component (group) and is most susceptible to external impact.

[0005] In order to reduce the chance of collision, the rearview mirror has a folding function. There are three common folding functions: one is cable-driven, one is handle-driven, and the other is electrically-driven. When two vehicles meet, the distance between the two vehicles is too close, and the rearview mirrors of each other collide with each other, causing cracks in the least and breakage in the worst, which greatly affects driving safety.

[0006] Even when parked on the side of the road or waiting at a red light, motorcycles or bicycles that appear from time to time may still collide with the rearview mirror.

[0007] Therefore, how to reduce the damage of the rearview mirror becomes a problem to be overcome urgently in the utility model. Utility Model Content

[0008] In view of this, the main purpose of the utility model is to provide a displaceable anti-collision rearview mirror, which adopts a displaceable anti-collision buffer device to replace the mirror seat of the prior art, reduce the destructiveness of the collision, and extend the service life of the rearview mirror.

[0017] a row of positioning holes forming a surface of the protrusion;

[0018] A bead is embedded in the wall of the mirror base that surrounds the groove and can be clamped in one of the row of positioning holes.

[0019] The displaceable anti-collision rearview mirror further comprises:

[0020] a set of teeth protruding circumferentially from one end of the ring;

[0021] Another set of teeth protrudes from the rearview mirror in a circumferential direction and surrounds the axis. The first set of teeth and the other set of teeth can be meshed or released from meshing relationship.

[0022] The displaceable anti-collision rearview mirror further comprises:

[0023] A support body has a tube, two interconnected assembly holes are formed in the tube, and one of the two interconnected assembly holes leads to the support body;

[0041] Unless otherwise specified, in the following description, "plurality" means two or more.

[0042] exist Figure 1 In the preferred embodiment of the utility model, a rearview mirror 10 is assembled with an anti-collision buffer device. The rearview mirror 10 moves back and forth on the anti-collision buffer device along the direction of an arrow 40. The rearview mirror 10 swings back and forth between an upright position and a viewing position relative to the anti-collision buffer device along the direction of another arrow 41.

[0043] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the anti-collision buffer device includes: a mirror base 13, a bead 16, an adjustment member 17, a support body 18, a bottom plate 19 and an elastic member 25.

[0044] The bottom plate 19 has a raised portion 11, and a row of positioning holes 12 are formed on the top surface of the raised portion 11 at equal intervals. In this embodiment, the bottom plate 19 is a rectangular plate. The raised portion 11 is a trapezoidal body, which protrudes between the two short sides of the rectangular plate. The narrower lower bottom of the raised portion 11 is integrated with the bottom plate 19, and the wider upper bottom serves as the top surface.

[0045] The mirror base 13 includes: a groove 14, a bead hole 15, a ring 22, a step hole 23 and a plurality of teeth 24. The groove 14, also known as a dovetail groove, forms the bottom of the mirror base 13. The bead hole 15 is sunken into the mirror base 13 to form a wall of the groove 14. The ring 22 forms the top of the mirror base 13, and there is a height difference between one end of the ring 22 and the top of the mirror base 13. The step hole 23 runs through the inside of the ring 22. Each of the teeth 24 protrudes from the other end of the ring 22 in the circumferential direction, and a tooth valley 26 is formed between two of the teeth 24.

[0046] The bead 16 is partially embedded in the bead cavity 15 , and the remaining portion is elastically exposed from the groove 14 .

[0047] A tube 20 protrudes from one side of the support body 18 , and two interconnected assembly holes 21 are formed in the tube 20 . One of the two assembly holes 21 passes through the support body 18 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 17 is a bolt. In some embodiments, the adjusting member 17 can be other screw-connecting elements with a head.

[0049] In this embodiment, the elastic member 25 is a compression spring. In some embodiments, the elastic member 25 can be a leaf spring or other springs.

[0050] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the rearview mirror 10 includes: a housing 30, a lens 31 and a connecting member 36. The housing 30 is a hollow shell formed by injection molding. In this embodiment, the lens 31 is embedded in an opening of the housing 30. In some embodiments, the lens 31 is installed at the opening of the housing 30 together with an electric control mechanism.

[0051] The connecting member 36 includes a shaft 32 and a plurality of teeth 34. The shaft 32 is integrated with the housing 30 and stands beside the lens 31. The shaft 32 has a screw hole 33. Each of the teeth 34 protrudes from the housing 30 in a circumferential direction and surrounds the shaft 32. A tooth valley 35 is formed between two teeth 34.

[0052] from Figure 1 to Figure 4 It is not difficult to know from the figure that during assembly, the protrusion 11 passes through the groove 14, and the mirror base 13 slides a distance relative to the bottom plate 19 in the direction of the arrow 40. The bead 16 clamps the positioning hole 12, and immediately fixes the mirror base 13 at any position of the bottom plate 19. The ring 22 and the connecting member 36 face each other, and each of the teeth 24, 34 is inserted into the corresponding tooth valley 26, 35, and can mesh with each other and can release the meshing relationship. The cylinder 20 is placed in one end of the step hole 23, and the support body 18 fills the height difference of the mirror base 13 and can resist the ring 22. The shaft 32 is inserted into the other end of the step hole 23, so as to be placed in one of the two assembly holes 21. The other assembly hole 21 receives the elastic member 25. The adjusting member 17 passes through the assembly hole 21 through the elastic member 25 and is locked into the screw hole 33. The elastic member 25 pushes the adjusting member 17 to prevent the shaft 32 from being disengaged, and the assembly operation of the rearview mirror 10 is completed.

[0053] In the upright position, the rearview mirror 10 is pulled out of the shaft 32 in the direction of arrow 40, and the adjusting member 17 compresses the elastic member 25, and the meshing relationship between the teeth 24 and 34 is released. The rearview mirror 10 swings in the direction of arrow 41 and keeps a straight line with the mirror base 13. After the rearview mirror 10 is released, the elastic member 25 releases pressure, pushes the adjusting member 17 and the shaft 32 back to the original position, and restores the meshing relationship between the teeth 24 and 34, so that the rearview mirror 10 is perpendicular to the bottom plate 19.

[0054] When in the observation position, the aforementioned adjustment process is repeated. The rearview mirror 10 is perpendicular to the mirror base 13, or maintained at other angles, so as to be able to observe the road conditions behind.

[0055] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the shaft 32 is a circumferential surface, and the wall of the assembly hole 21 is also a circumferential surface, so the shaft 32 will not drive the cylinder 20 to rotate in the same direction. In some embodiments, the outer surface of the shaft 32 is a polygonal structure, and the assembly hole 21 has a polygonal wall of the same shape, so the shaft 32 can drive the cylinder 20 to rotate in the same direction. For example, when the teeth 34 of the connecting member 36 rotate clockwise, the support body 18 also rotates clockwise.

[0056] exist Figure 5 In the embodiment, the rearview mirror 10 is disposed on a vehicle 42, such as a car.

[0057] By means of adhesion or welding, the bottom plate 19 (i.e. the anti-collision buffer device) is attached to the outer side (i.e. the door) of the car and adjacent to an A-pillar 43. The rearview mirror 10 is close to a window 44, which is convenient for a driver (not shown) to observe the surrounding traffic conditions.

[0058] When the other vehicle collides with the rearview mirror 10, the bottom plate 19 guides the rearview mirror 10 to move to the rear of the vehicle, offsetting the impact force and reducing the wear of the rearview mirror 10. At the same time, the elastic member 25 allows the teeth 24 and 34 to release the meshing relationship and restore the meshing relationship, which can also offset the impact force and reduce the wear of the rearview mirror 10. In addition, the rearview mirror 10 is turned to the upright position to achieve an anti-collision effect.

[0059] exist Figure 6 In the embodiment, the rearview mirror 10 of the present invention is disposed on another vehicle 45, such as a motorcycle. The difference is that the housing 30 is connected to the mirror base 13 (or the ring) through a rod (not numbered).

[0060] In some embodiments, the vehicle can be one of a truck, a truck, a tractor, an electric car, an electric motorcycle, an electric bicycle, a bicycle, a bus, a ship, an airplane, a helicopter, an amusement vehicle, an amusement park vehicle, a tram, a train, and a golf cart. Of course, the anti-collision buffer device can be varied as needed.

[0061] Without departing from the broad concept of the utility model, a person skilled in the art can understand and make changes to the above-described embodiments. Therefore, the utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the specification. For example, any modification made according to the spirit and technical scope of the utility model should be covered and protected by the text content defined in the utility model.
