[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 The illustrated structure of a water-wading radar installation for an automobile exterior rearview mirror includes a water-wading radar 3, which is installed on a lower mirror housing 1 of the exterior rearview mirror. A radar installation slot 11 is provided on the lower mirror housing 1 of the exterior rearview mirror. A radar installation plate 2 with a radar installation hole 20 is connected to the radar installation slot 11. A radar installation seat 21 is fixedly provided at the upper end of the radar installation plate 2 corresponding to the position of the radar installation plate 2. The side wall of the radar installation seat 21 is connected to the side wall of the water-wading radar 3 by snap connection. The upper ends of the two opposite sides of the radar installation plate 2 are respectively provided with a first snap 23 and a second snap 24. The first snap 23 and the second snap 24 are respectively snap-connected with the two sides of the upper end of the groove wall of the radar installation slot 11. This design allows the water-wading radar to be directly disassembled and assembled from the outside of the exterior rearview mirror without disassembling the exterior rearview mirror, thereby solving the problem of inconvenient disassembly and assembly of the water-wading radar.

[0024] In order to facilitate the installation and disassembly maintenance of the water-wading radar 3, the radar mounting seat 21 is convexly arranged on the upper end of the radar mounting plate 2, and the two side walls of the radar mounting seat 21 are provided with a card slot 22, and the card slot 22 is engaged with the third card buckle 31 on the two side walls of the water-wading radar 3. In this embodiment, the card slot 22 and the third card buckle 31 are both symmetrically designed and provided in two groups, so that the connection is more stable.

[0025] In order to facilitate the clamping with the upper end of the groove wall of the radar installation groove 11 and facilitate disassembly and maintenance, a clamping boss 12 is provided at the position of the second clamp 24 at the upper end of the groove wall of the radar installation groove 11, and the second clamp 24 is clamped with the clamping boss 12. In this embodiment, the cross section of the first clamp 23 is an L-shaped structure without a clamping hook, while the second clamp 24 is a clamping structure with a clamping hook. Therefore, during assembly, the first clamp 23 is first extended into the radar installation groove 11 of the lower mirror housing 1 of the exterior rearview mirror, the first clamp 23 is abutted against the upper end surface of one side of the lower mirror housing 1 of the exterior rearview mirror, and then the second clamp 24 is clamped on the upper end surface of the clamping boss 12.

[0026] In order to ensure that the parts do not shake after assembly, the upper end surface of the radar mounting plate 2 is provided with a first limiting boss 25 and a second limiting boss 26 at intervals, and the first limiting boss 25 and the second limiting boss 26 are both in contact with the inner side wall of the radar mounting groove 11.

[0027] In order to make the connection more stable and ensure that the parts do not shake after assembly, an L-shaped limiting portion 13 is protruding inwardly at the positions corresponding to the first limiting boss 25 and the second limiting boss 26 on the inner wall of the radar mounting groove 11. The second limiting boss 26 is an L-shaped structure, and the first limiting boss 25 and the second limiting boss 26 are respectively abutted against the two side walls of the limiting portion 13.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first limiting boss 25 and the second limiting boss 26 are provided in two groups, and are symmetrically arranged at the positions on both sides of the first buckle 23 on the upper end surface of the radar mounting plate 2; the limiting portion 13 is provided in two groups, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the radar mounting slot 11. Therefore, through this structure, the first limiting boss 25 and the second limiting boss 26 cooperate with the front side of the radar mounting slot 11 to limit.

[0029] In this embodiment, the upper end surface of the radar mounting plate 2 is provided with third limiting bosses 27 on both sides facing each other, and the third limiting bosses 27 are fixedly connected to the two side walls of the radar mounting seat 21, and the third limiting bosses 27 are in contact with the two inner side walls of the radar mounting slot 11. Therefore, through this structure, the third limiting bosses 27 cooperate with the left and right sides of the radar mounting slot 11 to limit.

[0030] In this embodiment, the upper end surface of the radar mounting plate 2 is provided with a fourth limiting boss 28 of an L-shaped structure at the positions on both sides of the second buckle 24, and the inner side wall of the radar mounting groove 11 is provided with a step limiting groove 14 at the position corresponding to the fourth limiting boss 28, and the fourth limiting boss 28 abuts against the two side walls of the step limiting groove 14. Therefore, through this structure, the fourth limiting boss 28 cooperates with the rear side of the radar mounting groove 11 for limiting.

[0031] In order to facilitate disassembly and maintenance, a disassembly groove 29 is provided on one side of the radar mounting plate 2 corresponding to the second buckle 24 .

[0032] In order to prevent the gap of the disassembly groove 29 from becoming too large, a shielding plate 291 is provided on the groove wall of the disassembly groove 29 below the second buckle 24. In order to meet the aesthetics of the shape, a shielding plate structure is designed at the disassembly opening to avoid the defect of a large gap of the disassembly opening.

[0033] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "one end", "one side", "two ends", "both sides", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0034] The utility model is described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the utility model, or they are directly applied to other occasions, they all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
