[0022] Next, the embodiments of the utility model are described in conjunction with the drawings. In the drawings, the same reference signs are used to indicate the same or similar structures or units. It is predictable that the described embodiments are only part of the examples of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the described examples, other embodiments can be derived, or the structure can be changed as needed, and all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0023] In the following description, directional phrases such as "up", "down", "left", "right", "front", "back", "in", "out" and "side" are only with reference to the direction of the drawings. The use of directional phrases is for better and clearer description and understanding of the utility model, and does not explicitly or implicitly indicate that the device or element must have a specific orientation, structure and operation, so it cannot be understood as a limitation on the technical content of the utility model.

[0024] Unless specifically and explicitly specified and limited, in the following description, "mounting", "connecting", "connecting", or "provided on" should be understood broadly, such as fixed connection, detachable connection, integral connection, mechanical connection, direct connection, indirect connection or internal connection of two elements. The skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in various embodiments with ordinary knowledge or experience.

[0025] Unless otherwise specified, in the following description, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0026] As Figure 2 shown, the preferred embodiment of the present application shows a rearview mirror 10 with a mirror 12. A slide 30 is between the rearview mirror 10 and a mirror frame 20. A nut 33 is below the mirror frame 20. A plurality of ribs (not numbered) and a plurality of grooves (not numbered) are connected to form a slip stop 35 on the surface outside the nut 33 in the circumferential direction. The slip stop 35 prevents the fingers of a user (not shown) from slipping, and the user can loosen or tighten the nut 33.

[0027] As Figure 1 shown, after the nut 33 is loosened, a fastener 32 of the rearview mirror 10 is away from the mirror frame 20 and an internal threaded hole 34 of the nut 33. The slide 30 contacts the rearview mirror 10, so that the mirror frame 20 and the slide 30 maintain a distance.

[0028] Wherein the mirror frame 20 is long, and two short sides are considered as a first end 21 and a second end 22. Two protrusions 24 (see Figure 3 shown) protrude from the two opposite sides of the mirror frame 20, and each protrusion 24 is adjacent to the first end 21 of the mirror frame 20. A long hole 23 penetrates the middle part of the two protrusions 24. A connecting part 25 extends outwardly from the second end 22 of the mirror frame 20. In this embodiment, the connecting part 25 is an externally threaded column. In some embodiments, the connecting part 25 can be a geometric shape, such as a conical protrusion (see Taiwan Patent No. TWM485844).

[0029] Next, it is seen that the rearview mirror 10 has a housing 11. The mirror 12 (see Figure 2 shown) is fixed to the front surface of the housing 11 by means of adhesion or inlay. Part of the fastener 32 is hidden in the housing 11, and the remaining part of the fastener 32 passes through the back surface 13 of the housing 11, thereby extending out of the slide 30.

[0030] As Figure 3As shown, the sliding seat 30 is equivalent to a bowl, which covers a hemispherical body (not numbered) protruding from the back surface 13 of the housing 11, so that the sliding seat 30 and the housing 11 rotate relative to each other. A barrel 36 of the fastener 32 engages the sliding seat 30, so that the sliding seat 30 cannot rotate relative to the fastener 32.

[0031] The fastener 32 extends out of the long hole 23 and locks the nut 33. After the nut 33 is tightened, the mirror frame 20 is between the sliding seat 30 and the nut 33. The nut 33 contacts the protrusion 24, and the sliding seat 30 is pushed by another protrusion 24 toward the hemispherical body (not numbered) of the housing 11, so that the housing 11 and the mirror frame 20 are close to each other, achieving the effect of positioning the mirror frame 20 by the rearview mirror 10.

[0032] After the nut 33 is loosened, the hemispherical body of the housing 11 and the sliding seat 30 are loosened from each other, facilitating the rotation of the rearview mirror 10 around the fastener 32 in the direction of an arrow 40 (see Figure 4 As shown). After the nut 33 is tightened again, the rearview mirror 10 is positioned on the mirror frame 20.

[0033] After the nut 33 is loosened, the sliding seat 30 and the mirror frame 20 are loosened from each other. Because the length of the long hole 23 is greater than the diameter of the fastener 32, the rearview mirror 10 reciprocates relative to the mirror frame 20 in the direction of another arrow 41 (see Figure 5 As shown). After the nut 33 is tightened again, the rearview mirror 10 is positioned on the mirror frame 20.

[0034] Therefore, the long hole 23 of the mirror frame 20, in combination with the fastener 32 and the nut 33, forms an adjustment structure, allowing the rearview mirror 10 to have both multi-angle swinging and displacement adjustment functions. The rearview mirror 10 is indirectly connected to the mirror frame 20 through the sliding seat 30, and the sliding seat 30 provides a stable function for the displacement and positioning of the rearview mirror 10 on the mirror frame 20.

[0035] In this embodiment, the two track pieces 31 protrude from the surface outside the sliding seat 30. When the fastener 32 extends out of the long hole 23, the two track pieces 31 span the two sides of the protrusion 24, and the track pieces 31 prevent the sliding seat 30 and the protrusion 24 from rotating relative to each other, allowing the rearview mirror 10 to smoothly slide on the mirror frame 20.

[0036] Without departing from the broad concept of the present application, those skilled in the art can understand and modify the above embodiments. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the specification, and any modification made in accordance with the spirit and technical scope of the present application should be covered and protected by the content defined by the present application.
