Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle repair tools, specifically to a vehicle repair auxiliary tool. Background Technology
[0002] During vehicle maintenance, when using a two-post lift, scissor lift, or jack, it is necessary to check and confirm the support position under the vehicle to avoid damage caused by incorrect support point placement. Repair personnel often have to bend over, squat, or lie down to check or check by hand to confirm the support point. When the lighting under the vehicle is poor, they also have to use their mobile phones for illumination. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a vehicle maintenance auxiliary tool that is simple in structure, easy to operate, can flexibly adjust the mirror angle, and has a lighting function to meet the needs of repair personnel in different scenarios and improve work efficiency and repair accuracy. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a vehicle maintenance auxiliary tool with a simple structure and convenient use.

[0014] The present invention can be explained in detail through the following embodiments. The purpose of disclosing the present invention is to protect all technical improvements within the scope of the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that if there are terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right" indicating the orientation or positional relationship, they are only corresponding to the drawings of this application for the convenience of describing the present invention, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation.
[0015] Please see Figure 1-2 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0016] Example 1: A vehicle maintenance auxiliary tool includes a mirror 1, a mounting base 5, and a handle 10; the upper part of the mounting base 5 is provided with an electric motor 4, the output shaft of the electric motor 4 is connected to a housing 3 through a connecting plate 12, and the mirror 1 is clamped in the housing 3; the upper part of the mounting base 5 is provided with a battery holder 7, the battery holder 7 is provided with a battery 6, the battery 6 is electrically connected to the electric motor 4, the mounting base 5 is connected to the handle 10, and the end of the handle 10 is provided with a control switch 11;
[0017] The direction of mirror 1 is adjusted by electric motor 4. Mirror 1 can rotate and be adjusted as needed. The operator holds handle 10 to insert mirror 1 into the bottom of the vehicle and move it back and forth. The operator can check the position of the support point under the vehicle through the image of mirror 1, avoiding the need for the operator to bend over or squat under the vehicle to check the support position, thus providing convenience for vehicle maintenance.
[0018] Example 2: Unlike Example 1, the side of the housing 3 is also provided with LED beads 2. The LED beads 2 are electrically connected to the battery 6. The LED beads 2 provide illumination, which can make the undercarriage support condition of the vehicle more clearly visible.
[0019] It should be noted that the control switch 11 has a motor switch and an LED switch. The motor switch is a double-pole double-throw switch and controls the forward and reverse rotation of the electric motor 4. That is, when the switch is flipped up, the electric motor 4 rotates forward, and when the switch is flipped down, the electric motor 4 rotates in reverse. The LED switch controls the LED beads 2 to turn on and off. The battery 6 is electrically connected to the LED beads 2, the electric motor 4 and the control switch 11 through wires. This part is conventional technology and will not be described in detail here.
