Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle rearview mirror technology, and more specifically, to an assembled rearview mirror for new energy vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] Car rearview mirrors are important safety components installed on both sides of the front of the car and in front of the interior. They mainly consist of lenses, mirror housings, adjustment mechanisms, and mounting brackets. They help drivers obtain information about the external environment behind, to the sides, and below the vehicle, assisting drivers in safe driving. However, in actual use, both exterior and interior rearview mirrors are easily damaged by bumps and knocks because they are directly exposed to the environment.
[0003] Most rearview mirrors currently on the market are either integrated or use complex fixing methods such as dense bolt fastening. When the mirror housing is damaged and needs to be replaced, the entire rearview mirror must first be removed from the vehicle body. Then, the mirror housing can only be separated from the mounting structure through a tedious process of disassembling the fasteners and separating the related components one by one. This not only consumes a lot of repair time, but may also cause secondary damage to the undamaged mounting structure and vehicle body connection parts during the disassembly process.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0018] Example 1 This utility model provides an assembled rearview mirror for new energy vehicles. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the assembled rearview mirror for this new energy vehicle. (See attached diagram) Figure 1 As shown, the structural design of the assembled rearview mirror for new energy vehicles is as follows: The system includes a mirror housing 100, which is a split design consisting of an upper housing 110 and a lower housing 120 connected to one side of the upper housing 110. Preferably, the lower housing 120 is connected to one side of the upper housing 110 by a snap-fit, forming a complete mirror housing 100 cavity after assembly. On the first side of the mirror housing 100, a first slider is integrally formed on the outer side wall of the upper housing 110, and a second slider is integrally formed on the corresponding position on the outer side wall of the lower housing 120. The first slider and the second slider are assembled to form a complete sliding member 130.
[0019] A mounting bracket 200 is detachably mounted on the first side of the mirror housing 100. The mounting bracket 200 has a groove 210 adapted to the sliding member 130 on the first side facing the mirror housing 100. The sliding member 130 can slide along the extension direction of the groove 210. A connector 300 is provided on the second side of the mounting bracket 200 opposite to the first side. At least one first leg 310 and at least one second leg 320 extend from the side of the connector 300 facing the mirror housing 100. The first leg 310 and the second leg 320 are spaced apart and correspond to the positions of the first slider and the second slider, respectively. The mounting bracket 200 has through holes adapted to the first leg 310 and the second leg 320. The first leg 310 passes through the corresponding through hole and is embedded in the first slider. The second leg 320 passes through the corresponding through hole and is embedded in the second slider, thereby realizing the positioning and fixing of the mirror housing 100 and the mounting bracket 200.
[0020] In addition, a lens 400 is detachably mounted on the second side of the mirror housing 100 relative to the first side.
[0021] In summary, the assembled rearview mirror provided in this embodiment adopts a modular and detachable structural design. Its mirror housing 100 adopts an upper housing 110 and a lower housing 120 spliced together, and is equipped with a sliding member 130 composed of corresponding sliders of the two, which can be adapted to the sliding groove 210 of the mounting bracket 200. At the same time, with the first and second support legs 320 of the connector 300 respectively embedded in the sliders of the upper and lower housings 120, the mirror housing 100 and the mounting bracket 200 can be stably and detachably assembled. During maintenance, there is no need to remove the entire rearview mirror. Only the fixing of the connector 300 needs to be released to disassemble the mirror housing 100 and replace the damaged housing or lens 400 separately, which greatly shortens the working time and avoids damage to undamaged parts. The adaptation of the sliding member 130 and the sliding groove 210, and the embedded fixing of the support legs of the connector 300 can simplify disassembly while ensuring structural rigidity and preventing loosening during use.
[0022] Example 2 This embodiment further explains the structure of the mirror housing 100 based on the technical solution provided in Embodiment 1: In this embodiment, see Figure 2 As shown, the bottom edge of the upper housing 110 is provided with an annular splicing boss, and the top edge of the lower housing 120 is provided with an annular splicing groove. When splicing, the boss is embedded in the groove to form a preliminary positioning.
[0023] To improve the sealing performance of the mirror housing 100, an annular sealing groove is provided on the outer side of the annular splicing boss of the upper housing 110. The cross-section of the sealing groove is U-shaped. A suitable rubber sealing strip is embedded in the annular sealing groove. The height of the sealing strip is slightly higher than the depth of the annular sealing groove. After the lower housing 120 and the upper housing 110 are fastened together, the annular sealing strip is squeezed and adhered to the inner wall between the annular splicing boss and the annular splicing groove. This can effectively prevent rainwater, dust and other impurities from entering the interior of the mirror housing 100, and avoid the internal components from getting damp or accumulating dust, which would affect their use.
[0024] A lens frame 500 is provided on the second side of the lens housing 100 away from the mounting bracket 200. The lens 400 is detachably installed inside the lens frame 500. A fixing part 510 extends from the side of the lens frame 500 facing the lens housing 100. The fixing part 510 is adapted to the inner side wall of the lens housing 100, and a plurality of threaded holes are evenly opened along the circumferential direction on the fixing part 510. A through mounting hole is opened at the corresponding position on the side wall of the lens housing 100. The fixing part 510 is connected to the lens housing 100 through a plurality of first fasteners 520 penetrating the side wall of the lens housing 100, which not only ensures that the lens 400 is installed firmly, but also allows the lens 400 to be quickly replaced by removing the first fasteners 520.
[0025] Example 3 This embodiment further explains the structure of the mounting bracket 200 based on the technical solution provided in Embodiment 1: In this embodiment, the mounting bracket 200 is a "U"-shaped bracket made of high-strength aluminum alloy, with its opening facing one side of the vehicle body and hinged to the mirror frame connected to the vehicle body; the bottom surface of the "U"-shaped bracket is provided with a "T"-shaped sliding groove 210, the opening width of the sliding groove 210 is smaller than the width of the bottom of the groove, which can form an anti-drop fit with the sliding member 130 on the first side of the mirror housing 100, preventing the sliding member 130 from falling out of the opening of the sliding groove 210 during the sliding process.
[0026] To further facilitate the alignment of the slider 130 and the groove 210, see [reference needed]. Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, limiting mechanisms 140 are provided on both sides of the sliding member 130. The limiting mechanism 140 is composed of a first limiting block on the upper housing 110 and a second limiting block on the lower housing 120. When the sliding member 130 slides along the sliding groove 210, the limiting mechanism 140 slides along the side of the mounting bracket 200.
[0027] Further, see Figure 4 As shown, a metal connector 300 is provided on the inner side of the "U"-shaped frame. The connector 300 is connected to the "U"-shaped frame through a number of second fasteners 330 that penetrate its thickness direction, so as to achieve a stable connection between the connector 300 and the "U"-shaped frame.
[0028] The following explains the operating principle: During assembly, the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 are first spliced together, so that the first and second sliders of the two form a complete sliding member 130. At the same time, the splicing structure ensures the sealing of the mirror housing 100. Then, the sliding member 130 on the first side of the mirror housing 100 is aligned with the "T" groove of the mounting bracket 200 and embedded. The initial positioning is achieved through the sliding groove 210. Then, the first leg 310 and the second leg 320 of the connector 300 are respectively inserted through the mounting bracket 200 and embedded into the first and second sliders. The connector 300 and the mounting bracket 200 are fixed together with the second fastener 330 to complete the rigid connection between the mirror housing 100 and the mounting bracket 200. Finally, the lens 400 is installed on the second side of the mirror housing 100 through the mirror frame 500, the fixing part 510, and the first fastener 520 to form a complete rearview mirror structure. When a component is damaged and needs repair, there is no need to remove the entire rearview mirror. Only the connector 300 or the first fastener 520 needs to be removed to separate the mirror housing 100 and the lens 400 for replacement.
[0029] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
