Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of corner mirrors, in particular to an automatic cleaning corner mirror with a water storage and discharge device. Background Art
[0002] Road corners are often obstructed by surrounding buildings and trees, limiting the driver's field of vision and preventing them from observing oncoming vehicles and pedestrians, which can easily lead to accidents. To help drivers and pedestrians identify vehicle tracks where visibility is limited, and to prevent accidents, road corner mirrors are installed at curved sections with limited sight distance, at extremely tight curve radii on mountainous roads, at intersections with poor visibility, and at railway crossings.
[0003] However, due to the influence of the car and the surrounding environment, the dust on the road will be brought up during the driving process. Under the influence of wind, the dust is very likely to adhere to the corner mirror, reducing its reflective effect, making it impossible for the driver and pedestrians to see the oncoming traffic clearly, which is very likely to cause safety accidents. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the problem raised in the above background technology that dust on the road will be brought up during the driving of the car, and under the influence of wind, the dust is very likely to adhere to the corner mirror, reducing its reflective effect, making it impossible for the driver and pedestrians to see the driving situation of the oncoming vehicles, which is very likely to cause safety accidents, the utility model provides an automatic cleaning corner mirror with a water storage and discharge device, which has the advantages of easy cleaning and good display effect.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an automatic cleaning corner mirror with a water storage and discharge device, comprising a column, a corner mirror fixedly mounted on the column, a mirror cap fixedly mounted on the top of the corner mirror, and bolts, wherein the four corners of the top of the column are fixedly mounted with support rods, the tops of the support rods are fixedly connected to a water tank, the bottom of the water tank is fixedly connected to a water outlet pipe, a soft ball plug is placed inside the water tank, and the water outlet pipe passes through the center of the mirror cap and is arranged at the top of the corner mirror.
[0006] Preferably, the corner mirror is fixedly connected to the column by bolts.
[0007] Preferably, the water outlet pipe is provided with spaced-apart water outlets at one end facing the corner mirror.
[0008] Preferably, the shape of the water tank is a truncated cone that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom and is through in the middle, and the shape of the soft ball plug is a spherical shape with a diameter greater than the diameter of the bottom surface of the water tank.
[0009] Preferably, the water storage tank is made of foam.
[0010] Preferably, a protective net is fixedly installed on the top of the water tank.
[0011] Preferably, the portion of the lower end of the water outlet pipe located at the top of the corner mirror is in contact with the corner mirror and is arc-shaped.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0013] The utility model achieves the cleaning of the corner mirror by cooperating with structures such as a soft ball plug, a water storage tank, and a protective net. The water storage tank collects natural rainfall and stores rainwater. If the water in the water storage tank is less, the soft ball plug can block the water outlet pipe. If the water in the water storage tank is more, the soft ball plug floats due to the buoyancy of the water, so that the water in the water storage tank is quickly released. When the corner mirror is placed at a road corner and the surface is contaminated with dust, the automatic cleaning of the corner mirror with a water storage and discharge device saves cleaning time and cost and reduces the probability of traffic accidents.

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides an automatic cleaning corner mirror with a water storage and discharge device, comprising a column 1, a corner mirror 2 fixedly mounted on the column 1, a mirror cap 3 fixedly mounted on the top of the corner mirror 2, and bolts 9. Support rods 5 are fixedly mounted on the four corners of the top of the column 1. The tops of the support rods 5 are fixedly connected to water storage tanks 7. The bottom of the water storage tank 7 is fixedly connected to a water outlet pipe 4. A soft ball plug 6 is placed inside the water storage tank 7. The water outlet pipe 4 passes through the center of the mirror cap 3 and is arranged at the top of the corner mirror 2.
[0020] The above scheme is adopted: natural rainfall is collected and stored in the water tank 7, and a soft ball plug 6 is provided above the connection between the top of the water outlet pipe 4 and the bottom of the water tank 7. If there is less water in the water tank 7, the soft ball plug 6 can block the water outlet pipe 4. If there is more water in the water tank 7, the soft ball plug 6 floats up due to the buoyancy of the water, so that the water in the water tank 7 is quickly released. Since there is a certain height difference between the water outlet pipe 4 and the corner mirror 2, the gravitational potential energy of the water is converted into kinetic energy, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning the corner mirror. The mirror cap 3 directly above the corner mirror 2 can prevent the corner mirror 2 from being exposed to sunlight, avoiding reflection and focusing phenomena.
[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the corner mirror 2 is fixedly connected to the column 1 by bolts 9;
[0022] The above solution is adopted: fixing is performed by means of bolts 9 , thereby ensuring the stability of the position of the corner mirror 2 .
[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, the outlet pipe 4 is provided with outlets 10 spaced apart at one end facing the corner mirror 2;
[0024] By adopting the above solution, the multiple water outlets 10 are opened, so that the water can be more evenly distributed on the surface of the corner mirror 2 when it flows out, thereby achieving more comprehensive cleaning.
[0025] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the shape of the water tank 7 is a truncated cone with a large upper portion and a small lower portion and a through middle portion. The shape of the soft ball plug 6 is spherical and its diameter is greater than the diameter of the bottom surface of the water tank 7. The water tank 7 is made of foam.
[0026] The above scheme is adopted: the shape of the water tank 7 can collect natural precipitation, and the soft ball plug 6 is provided to block the bottom of the water tank 7 when the water volume is small. When the water volume is large, it floats through buoyancy, so that the water inside the water tank 7 is quickly released, thereby achieving a better flushing effect.
[0027] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a protective net 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the water tank 7;
[0028] The above solution is adopted: the protective net 8 can prevent debris such as fallen leaves from falling into the water storage tank 7 and causing blockage, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the device.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the lower end of the water outlet pipe 4 located at the top of the corner mirror 2 is in contact with the corner mirror 2 and is in an arc shape;
[0030] The above-mentioned solution is adopted: by fitting the lower end of the water outlet pipe 4 to the corner mirror 2, the water outlet 10 on the water outlet pipe 4 can be kept close to the corner mirror 2, so that when the water flow in the water tank 7 enters the water outlet pipe 4 and is discharged through the water outlet 10, the surface of the corner mirror 2 can be flushed more evenly.
[0031] The working principle and use process of this utility model:
[0032] When in use, the column 1 is set on a road with a corner. Since the dust on the road will be brought up during the driving of the car and affected by the wind, the dust is very likely to adhere to the corner mirror 2, reducing its reflective effect and making it difficult for the driver to see the surrounding road conditions. Therefore, the water tank 7 is used to collect natural precipitation, and the protective net 8 prevents fallen leaves and other debris from falling into the water tank 7 to avoid blockage. The soft ball plug 6 has buoyancy. If the water in the water tank 7 is low, the soft ball plug 6 can block the water outlet pipe 4. If the water in the water tank 7 is high, the soft ball plug 6 floats due to the buoyancy of the water, allowing the water in the water tank 7 to be quickly discharged.
[0033] Since there is a certain height difference between the water outlet pipe 4 and the corner mirror 2, the gravitational potential energy of the water is converted into kinetic energy, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning the corner mirror. The mirror cap 3 directly above the corner mirror 2 can prevent the corner mirror 2 from being exposed to sunlight, avoiding reflection and focusing phenomena. The water outlet pipes 4 arranged on both sides of the corner mirror 2 are provided with water outlets 10 at a certain interval, so as to fully clean the corner mirror 2.
