[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Such as Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, the utility model discloses a motorcycle rearview mirror, which includes a mirror surface 1, a housing 2 and a base 3. The mirror surface 1 is located on the front side of the housing 2 and is detachably connected to the housing 2. The length direction of the base 3 extends vertically, and a mounting ball 31 made of a deformable material such as rubber for inserting the housing 2 is fixedly installed at the front by integral molding, bolts or other means. It also includes a mating seat 4. An installation groove 21 is provided on the rear side of the housing 2 where the mirror surface 1 is located. The mating seat 4 is located in the installation groove 21 and is detachably connected to the housing 2 by means of a buckle or the like. The mating seat 4 is provided with an installation cavity 421 corresponding to the mounting ball 31. Since the mating seat 4 is located in the installation groove 21 and is detachably connected to the housing 2 and the mating seat 4 is provided with an installation cavity 421, after the mounting ball 31 on the base 3 is inserted into the installation cavity 421, the spherical connection between the mating seat 4 and the base 3 can be realized, that is, the connection between the housing 2 and the base 3. As the rearview mirror is used for a long time, if the mounting ball 31 and the mating seat 4 are worn, the mating seat 4 can be removed from the housing 2 at this time and a new mating seat 4 can be replaced without replacing the entire housing 2. And because the installation cavity 421 is located on the mating seat 4, there is no need to additionally process the installation cavity 421 on the housing 2.

[0030] Preferably, the mating seat 4 is made of wear-resistant materials such as high manganese steel, chromium carbide wear-resistant steel plate, stainless steel, etc. The mating seat 4 made of wear-resistant materials can make the mating seat 4 not easily worn, damaged or loosened during the process of rotating the housing 2, that is, adjusting the angle of the rearview mirror mirror surface 1, thereby prolonging the overall life of the rearview mirror.

[0031] Among them, the mating seat 4 includes a mounting plate 41 and a mounting portion 42 that abuts against the housing 2. The installation cavity 421 is located in the mounting portion 42. The mounting portion 42 is inserted into the housing 2 and the mounting plate 41 is detachably connected to the housing 2 by means of a buckle or the like. Since the mounting plate 41 is detachably connected to the housing 2, after the mounting portion 42 is inserted into the housing 2, the mounting plate 41 will abut against the housing 2 at this time, thereby facilitating the detachable connection between the mounting plate 41 and the housing 2.

[0032] Preferably, the installation part 42 includes a plurality of installation pieces 422 and the fitting grooves 423 located between adjacent installation pieces 422. One end of each installation piece 422 abuts against the housing 2. 1. Since one end of each installation piece 422 contacts the housing 2, when the installation ball 31 is loaded into the installation cavity 421, the installation ball 31 will exert an outward force on the installation part 42, causing the inner wall of the installation part 42 to expand slightly. This expansion effect prompts the installation pieces 422 to fit more closely to the surface of the housing 2, thereby increasing the overall stability and firmness of the structure; 2. By providing the fitting grooves 423 between adjacent installation pieces 422, when the installation ball 31 enters the installation cavity 421 and causes the installation part 42 to be stressed and expand, these fitting grooves 423 can effectively disperse and absorb part of the stress, thereby reducing the risk of material damage or fracture of the installation part 42 caused by concentrated stress and extending the service life of the installation part 42.

[0033] Further, it includes a plurality of fixing bolts 6 and nuts 7. Each of the fixing bolts 6 is inserted through the mounting plate 41 and is in threaded cooperation with the corresponding nut 7. After the installation part 42 is loaded into the housing 2 and the mounting plate 41 abuts against the housing 2, at this time, each fixing bolt 6 can more smoothly and efficiently pass through the housing 2 and the installation part 42 and then complete the cooperation with the corresponding nut 7, thereby improving the connection stability between the fitting seat 4 and the housing 2. When the fitting seat 4 needs to be replaced, by removing each nut 7 from the corresponding fixing bolt 6 and then separating each fixing bolt 6 from the housing 2, the fitting seat 4 can be taken out of the housing 2.

[0034] Among them, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 411 are arranged along the circumferential direction inside the mounting plate 41. The reinforcing ribs 411 can increase the strength of the mounting plate 41 and thus improve its anti-deformation ability. During the running of the motorcycle, especially on high-speed or bumpy roads, the rearview mirror will be affected by various external forces. The reinforcing ribs 411 help to keep the shape of the mounting plate 41 stable and prevent bending or twisting caused by vibration or impact.

[0035] Among them, the installation ball 31 includes a spherical body 311 and a connecting section 312. The shape and size of the spherical body 311 are adapted to the installation cavity 421. An external thread 3121 is provided on the outer circumference of the connecting section 312. The base 3 includes a front adjusting plate 32 and a rear adjusting plate 33. The connecting section 312 is in threaded cooperation with the rear adjusting plate 33. Since the external thread 3121 of the connecting section 312 of the installation ball 31 can be in threaded cooperation with the rear adjusting plate 33, if the installation ball 31 is worn and causes the fitting seat 4 and the installation ball 31 to shake, by separating the spherical body 311 of the installation ball 31 from the installation cavity 421 and then rotating the connecting section 312, the connecting section 312 can be separated from the rear adjusting section, thereby realizing the disassembly and replacement of the installation ball 31.

[0036] In addition, it further includes a positioning bolt 5. A sliding groove is provided on the rear adjusting plate 33. The front adjusting plate 32 is slidably mounted on the rear adjusting plate 33 in the up-and-down direction. The front adjusting plate 32 is provided with an insertion hole 321 corresponding to the positioning bolt 5. The rear adjusting plate 33 is provided with a plurality of screw holes 331 corresponding to the insertion hole 321. The positioning bolt 5 is inserted into the insertion hole 321 and threadedly engaged with one of the screw holes 331. Since the front adjusting plate 32 can be slidably mounted on the rear adjusting plate 33 in the up-and-down direction, by moving the front adjusting plate 32 up and down relative to the rear adjusting plate 33, the insertion hole 321 is engaged with screw holes 331 at different positions, and then the positioning bolt 5 is inserted, so that the overall height of the base 3 changes, and further the height of the mirror surface 1 is increased or decreased, thus meeting more usage requirements.

[0037] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
