The precise positioning of the snap-fit ​​and the positioning pin 14 with the positioning pin hole greatly simplifies the positioning steps during installation, reduces the time and effort of assembly workers in positioning, and lowers labor intensity. Simultaneously, the method of installing the fastening bolts from inside the vehicle body makes installation more convenient, thereby improving the overall efficiency of automobile production. During later maintenance and replacement, the quick-release structure is easy to disassemble, eliminating the need for multiple tools to disassemble multiple parts one by one; simply unscrewing the fastening bolts allows for easy removal of the rearview mirror, significantly shortening disassembly time and reducing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the ease of disassembly reduces the possibility of damage to the rearview mirror body and vehicle body caused by complex disassembly operations. The cooperation between the positioning pin 14 and the positioning pin hole provides a reliable positioning mechanism, effectively ensuring the positional accuracy of the rearview mirror mounting bracket 12 in the mounting groove, avoiding inaccurate rearview mirror angles due to installation deviations. This enhances the stability of the rearview mirror mounting structure, reducing the likelihood of the rearview mirror loosening or shifting due to road bumps, wind, or other factors during vehicle operation, thus ensuring the stability of the driver's vision and improving driving safety.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 3 to 4 As shown, the swing assembly includes a mounting base 21, which has multiple threaded holes 22. The rearview mirror mounting base 12 has multiple bolt through holes 23. The number and position of the bolt through holes 23 correspond to the number and position of the threaded holes 22. The mounting base 21 and the rearview mirror mounting base 12 are fixedly connected by multiple bolts passing through the bolt through holes 23 and threadedly inserted into the threaded holes 22. The rearview mirror housing 1 is mounted on the mounting base 21.

[0028] In this embodiment, during the overall assembly of the rearview mirror, the mounting base 21 is aligned with the rearview mirror mounting seat 12, ensuring that the multiple threaded holes 22 on the mounting base 21 correspond one-to-one with the multiple bolt through holes 23 on the rearview mirror mounting seat 12 in both number and position. Multiple bolts are then passed sequentially through the bolt through holes 23 on the rearview mirror mounting seat 12, and the threaded ends of the bolts are screwed into the corresponding threaded holes 22 on the mounting base 21. By tightening the bolts, the mounting base 21 and the rearview mirror mounting seat 12 are securely fixed together. The rearview mirror housing 1 is then placed on the mounting base 21, which is already fixedly connected to the rearview mirror mounting seat 12. Since the rearview mirror housing 1... The rearview mirror housing 1 is connected to the mounting base 12, and the rearview mirror lens 11 is sway-connected to the rearview mirror mounting base 12. In this way, the rearview mirror housing 1 and the rearview mirror mounting base 12 form an integral structure through the mounting base 21, and at the same time realize the function of the rearview mirror housing 1 swaying relative to the rearview mirror mounting base 12. The structure is simple and easy to standardize production by bolting the mounting base 21 and the rearview mirror mounting base 12. In the production process, the mounting base 21 and the rearview mirror mounting base 12 can be manufactured independently, which reduces the manufacturing difficulty and cost. During assembly, the two can be quickly fixed together by bolts, which is convenient and quick to operate, improves production efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity of assembly workers.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figures 3 to 4 As shown, a motor mounting slot 24 is provided in the middle of the mounting base plate 21, a swing motor 25 is provided on the motor mounting slot 24, a rearview mirror frame 26 is swinging on the swing motor 25, the output end of the swing motor 25 drives the rearview mirror frame 26 to swing, the rearview mirror frame 26 is fixedly connected to the rearview mirror lens 11, and the rearview mirror housing 1 covers the rearview mirror frame 26 and the rearview mirror lens 11.

[0030] In this embodiment, when assembling the rearview mirror, the swing motor 25 is first installed into the motor mounting slot 24 in the middle of the mounting base 21 to ensure that the swing motor 25 is firmly fixed; then, the rearview mirror frame 26 is swung and positioned on the swing motor 25, so that the rearview mirror frame 26 can swing relative to the swing motor 25; next, the rearview mirror lens 11 is fixedly connected to the rearview mirror frame 26, and the rearview mirror lens 11 is then assembled with the swing drive part; the mounting base 21, which is equipped with the swing motor 25, the rearview mirror frame 26 and the rearview mirror lens 11, is fixedly connected to the rearview mirror mounting seat 12 by passing multiple bolts through the bolt holes 23 on the mounting base 21 and threading them into the connecting thread holes 22 on the rearview mirror mounting seat 12; finally, the rearview mirror housing 1 is placed over the rearview mirror frame 26 and the rearview mirror lens 11, completing the entire rearview mirror assembly. Assembly; When the angle of the rearview mirror 11 needs to be adjusted, the swing motor 25 is started, and the output end of the swing motor 25 begins to rotate, driving the connected rearview mirror frame 26 to swing; Since the rearview mirror 11 is fixedly connected to the rearview mirror frame 26, the angle of the rearview mirror 11 will change as the rearview mirror frame 26 swings; Compared with the traditional mechanical adjustment method, the motor drive can more accurately control the swing angle of the rearview mirror 11, and the adjustment accuracy is higher. Traditional rearview mirror angle adjustment usually requires manual operation by the driver, which is cumbersome and difficult to control the adjustment force and angle precisely; However, after the swing motor 25 drives the rearview mirror frame 26 to swing, the driver can easily adjust the rearview mirror angle by simply pressing a button or setting the in-vehicle electronic system, greatly simplifying the operation process.

[0031] More specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a wire harness 27 is connected to the swing motor 25. The wire harness 27 passes through the motor mounting slot 24 and the positioning block 13. A quick-connect wire harness connector 28 is connected to the wire harness 27. The quick-connect wire harness connector 28 is connected to the car's central control unit.

[0032] In this embodiment, the use of quick-connect wiring harness connector 28 greatly simplifies the connection process between wiring harness 27 and the vehicle's central control unit. Compared with traditional wiring methods, there is no need for tedious wire stripping, wiring, and fixing operations. The connection can be completed simply by quickly inserting the quick-connect wiring harness connector 28 into the corresponding interface, which significantly improves the installation efficiency of the rearview mirror and reduces the labor intensity of assembly workers. During later maintenance or replacement of the rearview mirror, the disassembly and installation process becomes very convenient due to the use of quick-connect wiring harness connector 28. The electrical connection can be disconnected simply by unplugging the quick-connect wiring harness connector 28 from the vehicle's central control unit, making it easy to disassemble or replace the rearview mirror as a whole. Similarly, when installing a new rearview mirror, the wiring harness connection can be completed quickly, reducing maintenance time and costs.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the positioning block 13 is provided with a wire harness through hole, and a cross rubber mold is provided on the wire harness through hole;

[0034] In this embodiment, the cross-shaped rubber mold effectively prevents external substances such as dust and moisture from entering the rearview mirror mounting area through the wiring harness through-hole. Dust entry can lead to wear and malfunction of internal components of the rearview mirror, while moisture intrusion may cause short circuits and other problems, affecting the normal operation and service life of the rearview mirror. By setting the cross-shaped rubber mold, the sealing performance of the rearview mirror mounting structure is improved, ensuring the stable operation of the rearview mirror in various environments. The cross-shaped rubber mold can also protect the wiring harness 27 passing through the wiring harness through-hole. During vehicle operation, the vehicle body will vibrate, and the wiring harness 27 may rub against the edge of the wiring harness through-hole. The cross-shaped rubber mold can buffer this friction, reduce wear on the outer sheath of the wiring harness 27, avoid electrical faults caused by damage to the wiring harness 27, and improve the service life and reliability of the wiring harness 27.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the motor mounting slot 24 is provided with wire harness through holes, and the edges of the wire harness through holes are all rounded.

[0036] In this embodiment, the rounded corner design effectively reduces friction and wear between the wiring harness 27 and the edge of the wiring harness through-hole. When the vehicle is in motion, the swaying of the rearview mirror causes the wiring harness 27 to shake. Without rounded corners, the wiring harness 27 would come into contact with the sharp edge of the wiring harness through-hole, easily causing damage to the outer sheath of the wiring harness 27 and potentially leading to electrical faults. The rounded corners buffer the contact force between the wiring harness 27 and the edge of the wiring harness through-hole, reducing wear and extending the service life of the wiring harness 27. During operation, if the wiring harness 27 rubs against the edge of the wiring harness through-hole, it may generate… Noise reduction; the rounded corners make the contact between the wiring harness 27 and the edge of the wiring harness through hole smoother, reducing friction noise and improving the quietness of the vehicle interior, providing a more comfortable driving environment for the driver and passengers; during installation and maintenance, the wiring harness 27 needs to pass through the wiring harness through hole frequently; the rounded corners make it easier for the wiring harness 27 to pass through the wiring harness through hole, reducing the difficulty and time cost of installation and maintenance; at the same time, it also reduces the risk of the wiring harness 27 getting stuck or damaged due to friction between the wiring harness 27 and the edge of the wiring harness through hole, improving work efficiency.

[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, a turn signal strip 16 is provided in the center of the windward side of the rearview mirror housing 1, and the turn signal strip 16 is electrically connected to the wiring harness 27.

[0038] In this embodiment, the turn signal strip 16 can more clearly convey the driver's turning intention to other vehicles and pedestrians; when the vehicle turns or changes lanes, other road users can know the vehicle's direction of travel in advance, thereby taking corresponding avoidance measures, reducing the probability of traffic accidents, and ensuring driving safety; the turn signal strip 16 in the center of the windward side of the rearview mirror housing 1 is more conspicuous, which can increase the vehicle's visibility during driving; especially at night or in low visibility conditions, the light emitted by the turn signal strip 16 can make it easier for other vehicles to see the vehicle, improving the vehicle's visibility on the road.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the windward side of the rearview mirror housing 1 is centered on the turn signal strip 16, and both the upper and lower sides are set as inclined guide surfaces;

[0040] In this embodiment, the inclined guide surface can guide the airflow more smoothly over the windward side of the rearview mirror housing 1, reducing the stagnation and separation of airflow on the surface of the rearview mirror housing 1; it can reduce the air resistance encountered by the vehicle during driving, improve the vehicle's fuel economy or extend the driving range of electric vehicles; when the airflow passes over the surface of an object, if it encounters an irregular shape or abrupt structure, it is easy to generate turbulence and eddies, which in turn cause wind noise; the setting of the inclined guide surface makes the airflow more stable, reduces the generation of turbulence and eddies, thereby effectively reducing the wind noise generated by the rearview mirror housing 1 when the vehicle is driving, improving the quietness inside the vehicle, and providing a more comfortable driving environment for the driver and passengers.

[0041] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
