[0003] Currently, existing electric vehicle rearview mirrors often cannot be adjusted according to the user's height and body shape, leading to safety hazards for drivers due to limited visibility or improper angles, and reducing comfort and safety during driving. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies that cannot be adjusted according to the user's height and body shape, leading to safety hazards for drivers due to limited visibility or improper angles, thus reducing driving comfort and safety. The proposed invention is an intelligent steering electric vehicle rearview mirror.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] Intelligent steering electric vehicle rearview mirror, including:

[0007] Mounting base and servo motor, one end of the servo motor output shaft is fixedly provided with a fixed plate, and the top of the fixed plate is fixedly provided with a support rod, the top of the support rod is fixedly provided with a lens cover, and the inner side of the lens cover is provided with a lens.

[0008] The first adjustment mechanism is mounted on the mounting base and is used to drive the rotation of the servo motor to adjust the lateral reflection angle of the lens.

[0009] The second adjustment mechanism is located inside the lens cover and is used to adjust the longitudinal reverse angle of the lens.

[0010] In one possible design, the first adjustment mechanism includes a connecting frame hinged to one side of the mounting base, the connecting frame being fixedly connected to the servo motor, and a connecting seat 1 being fixedly provided on both the side of the mounting base and one side of the connecting frame, with an electric actuator 1 rotatably mounted on the inner side of one of the connecting seats 1, and the output end of the electric actuator 1 being hinged to the inner side of the other connecting seat 1.

[0011] In one possible design, the second adjustment mechanism includes a ball seat fixedly disposed at the center of one side of the lens cover, the movable end of the ball seat being fixedly connected to one side of the lens, and a connecting seat two being fixedly disposed on the side of the lens cover that is close to the lens, and an electric actuator two being rotatably disposed on the inner side of one of the connecting seats two, the output end of the electric actuator two being connected to the other connecting seat two.

[0012] In one possible design, a clamping frame is hinged to the bottom side of the mounting base, and a connecting block is fixedly provided on one side of both the mounting base and the clamping frame. A lead screw is rotatably provided inside the connecting block of the mounting base, and a butterfly knob is detachably threaded to the outside of the lead screw.

[0013] In one possible design, the top of the connecting block of the clamping frame has a through hole, and the lead screw can be disengaged and passed through the through hole.

[0014] In one possible design, the mounting base and the servo motor are fitted with the same protective shell, the top of which has a U-shaped groove, and the support rod is located inside the U-shaped groove.

[0015] In one possible design, accordion covers are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the U-shaped groove of the protective shell, and the side of the two accordion covers that are close to each other is fixedly connected to the outside of the support rod.

[0016] In this application, upon initial use, first rotate the butterfly knob counterclockwise to remove it from the lead screw, then remove the lead screw from the through hole. Next, place the mounting base on the handlebar crossbeam of the vehicle, then rotate the clamping frame so that the mounting base and clamping frame wrap around the handlebar crossbeam. Then, insert the lead screw into the through hole and rotate the butterfly knob clockwise to thread it onto the through screw. Then, continue rotating the butterfly knob, which pushes the clamping frame towards the mounting base until the mounting base and clamping frame tightly wrap around the outside of the handlebar crossbeam, thus completing the installation of the entire rearview mirror. Then, electrically connect the power cord of the servo motor to the gyroscope sensor, and then electrically connect the power cords of electric actuator one and electric actuator two to the corresponding switches.

[0017] When a user is sitting on an electric vehicle and needs to adjust the reflection angle of the lens according to their own height and body shape, they first press the switch to adjust the lateral reflection angle of the lens. When the switch is pressed, the electric push rod one is powered on, and the output end of the electric push rod one extends and retracts. On the mounting base, the connecting bracket pushes the servo motor and the entire rearview mirror body to rotate laterally in the U-shaped groove of the protective shell until the reflection angle of the lens is suitable for them, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the lateral reflection angle of the lens.

[0018] Then press the switch to adjust the longitudinal reflection angle of the lens. When the switch is pressed, the electric push rod 2 is powered on. The output end of the electric push rod 2 pushes the lens through the connecting seat 2 inside the lens cover, and is fixedly connected to the lens by the movable end of the ball seat. The extension and retraction of the electric push rod 2 can drive the lens to tilt longitudinally inside the lens cover until the reflection angle of the lens is suitable for you, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the longitudinal reflection angle of the lens.

[0019] After adjusting the lateral and longitudinal reflection angles according to their own situation, users can use the electric vehicle. During the vehicle's operation, the gyroscope sensor will determine the vehicle's current deflection angle in real time and transmit the signal to the servo motor. The servo motor will then rotate the fixed plate and the rearview mirror on it through the rotation of its output shaft, adjusting the reflection angle of the rearview mirror to ensure that the user can always clearly see the road conditions behind during use.

[0020] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] In this utility model, the first adjustment mechanism enables precise adjustment of the lateral reflection angle of the lens, enhancing the adaptability and practicality of the rearview mirror, and improving the driver's field of vision and driving safety.

[0022] In this invention, the second adjustment mechanism enables fine adjustment of the longitudinal reflection angle of the lens, further enhancing the flexibility and personalization of the rearview mirror and ensuring that the driver can obtain the best field of vision according to different needs.

[0023] This invention, through the combination of two adjustment mechanisms, can precisely adjust the reflection angle of the rearview mirror in all directions according to the user's height and body shape, ensuring that the rearview mirror provides the best field of vision for each driver, greatly improving the driver's visual comfort and driving safety.

When electric actuator 2 10 is working, its output end pushes lens 8 through connecting seat 2 9, and uses the movable connection characteristic of ball seat 7 to make the lens 8 tilt longitudinally within lens cover 4.

[0035] To stably mount the rearview mirror onto the handlebar crossbeam of the electric vehicle, a clamping frame 11 is hinged to the bottom side of the mounting base 1. A connecting block 12 is fixedly mounted on one side of both the mounting base 1 and the clamping frame 11. A lead screw 13 is rotatably mounted inside the connecting block 12 of the mounting base 1, and a butterfly knob 15 is detachably threaded onto the outside of the lead screw 13. A through hole 14 is opened at the top of the connecting block 12 of the clamping frame 11, through which the lead screw 13 can pass. By rotating the butterfly knob 15 outside the lead screw 13, the clamping frame 11 can be pushed to move towards the mounting base 1, thereby clamping the handlebar crossbeam.

[0036] This application can be used in the field of intelligent steering electric vehicle rearview mirror technology, or in other fields applicable to this application.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 also includes: a smart steering electric vehicle rearview mirror, which is applied to the field of smart steering electric vehicle rearview mirror technology. In addition, in order to protect the servo motor 2 and the support structure, the same protective shell 16 is fitted on the outside of the mounting base 1 and the servo motor 2. A U-shaped groove is opened on the top of the protective shell 16, and the support rod 3 is located in this U-shaped groove to facilitate the rotation of the support rod 3.

[0039] Meanwhile, accordion covers 17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the U-shaped groove inner wall of the protective shell 16. The side of the accordion cover 17 closest to each other is fixedly connected to the outside of the support rod 3, which can prevent impurities from falling into the protective shell 16 and causing damage to its internal components.

[0040] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of servo motor 2, electric actuator 6 and electric actuator 10 are commonplace and are all conventional methods or common knowledge. They will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto.
