Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rearview mirror assemblies, in particular to a corrosion-resistant and rust-proof rearview mirror assembly. Background Art

[0002] The rearview mirror is a tool for the driver to directly obtain external information such as the rear, side, and bottom of the vehicle while sitting on the driver's seat. For the convenience of the driver's operation, to prevent the occurrence of traffic safety accidents and ensure personal safety, all countries have stipulated that rearview mirrors must be installed on vehicles.

[0003] For example, the authorized announcement number "CN208827709U" is a corrosion-resistant and rust-proof vehicle rearview mirror assembly device. Although it is clamped on the edge of the rearview mirror housing through a groove, the rearview mirror pressing strip can be clamped and fixed on the edge of the rearview mirror housing, and the rearview mirror lens pressing strip and the limiting protrusion jointly fix the rearview mirror lens in the rearview mirror housing. At the same time, the limiting pressing strip improves the sealing performance in front of the rearview mirror housing, which can always ensure the sealing of the rearview mirror housing and prevent water vapor from invading its interior, causing internal corrosion. However, by clamping and fixing the rearview mirror pressing strip on the edge of the rearview mirror housing, it is not easy to remove and replace the rearview mirror, and it requires professional personnel for replacement, which increases the maintenance cost; at the same time, the rearview mirror pressing strip and the edge of the rearview mirror housing are easily affected by the external environment and cause aging, reducing the service life of the rearview mirror assembly; the fixed cover plate is fixedly connected to the rear wall of the rearview mirror housing by screws, and the rear wall of the rearview mirror housing at the screw connection is affected by the external environment, which will cause damage to the rear wall of the rearview mirror housing.
