Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive rearview mirror technology, and specifically discloses an automotive electronic rearview mirror mounting structure. Background Technology
[0002] As a new type of configuration that replaces traditional optical exterior rearview mirrors, automotive electronic rearview mirrors (CMS) collect images through cameras placed outside the vehicle and display them on an in-vehicle screen. They have significant advantages such as a wider field of view, less susceptibility to weather conditions, and reduced wind resistance and noise, and are gradually becoming an important direction for the development of automotive intelligence.
[0003] The camera module (i.e., the electronic rearview mirror itself) of an electronic rearview mirror needs to be fixed to the outside of the car door. The reliability and ease of its installation structure directly affect the user experience and maintenance costs. Currently, common installation methods often involve direct bolt fastening or adopting a base bracket design similar to traditional rearview mirrors, making installation and disassembly cumbersome. Whether using specialized tools to tighten multiple bolts or aligning multiple mounting points, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it inconvenient for later cleaning, replacement, or upgrades of the camera, increasing the difficulty and cost of maintenance. Therefore, a new automotive electronic rearview mirror installation structure is needed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments to aid in understanding its content. Unless otherwise specified, the methods used in this invention are conventional methods; the raw materials and apparatus used, unless otherwise specified, are conventional commercially available products.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 An automotive electronic rearview mirror mounting structure includes a mounting base 1 fixedly connected to a car door and an electronic rearview mirror body 2. A connecting base 3 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the electronic rearview mirror body 2. The connecting base 3 and the mounting base 1 are detachably connected via a snap-fit mechanism. The snap-fit mechanism includes a protrusion 4 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting base 3. A limiting block 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mounting base 1. The limiting block 5 and the outer wall of the mounting base 1 are provided with a groove 6 that matches the protrusion 4. The inner wall of the mounting base 1 is provided with multiple sliding grooves 10 that communicate with the grooves 6. Each sliding groove 10 is slidably connected to a locking block 11. A spring 13 is provided between the inner wall of the multiple sliding grooves 10 and the locking block 11. The outer wall of the protrusion 4 is provided with multiple locking holes 14 that match the locking blocks 11. The outer wall of the limiting block 5 is rotatably connected to a rotating ring 8 via a bearing. The outer wall of the rotating ring 8 is provided with multiple circumferentially distributed slots 9. Each locking block 11 is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 12 that is slidably connected to the slots 9.
[0022] In this embodiment: When disassembling the rearview mirror, rotating the rotating ring 8 counterclockwise causes multiple locking blocks 11 to slide outward synchronously along the sliding groove 10 via the slot 9 and connecting shaft 12, thereby disengaging the locking blocks 11 from the locking holes 14 and pulling the protrusion 4 out of the groove 6, thus removing the rearview mirror. When installing the rearview mirror, rotating the rotating ring 8 counterclockwise again causes multiple locking blocks 11 to slide outward synchronously along the sliding groove 10 via the slot 9 and connecting shaft 12, compressing the spring 13 and fully inserting the protrusion 4 on the outer wall of the connecting seat 3 into the groove 6, aligning the locking blocks 11 with the locking holes 14. Releasing the rotating ring 8 causes the multiple locking blocks 11 to slide inward synchronously under the elastic force of the spring 13, locking into the locking holes 14, thus fixing the protrusion 4 and securing the rearview mirror. This utility model uses a locking mechanism to install and remove the electronic rearview mirror, making installation and removal convenient.
[0023] It should be noted that the selection of spring 13 must ensure that the preload it provides is sufficient to overcome the inertia of the locking block 11 under continuous vehicle vibration, so that it is always reliably locked in the locking hole 14 and prevented from loosening.
[0024] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the outer wall of the protrusion 4 is provided with a wiring terminal 7 that is electrically connected to the electronic rearview mirror body 2, and the inner wall of the groove 6 is provided with a socket that matches the wiring terminal 7.
[0025] In this embodiment: when the protrusion 4 is inserted into the groove 6, the wiring terminal 7 is automatically inserted into the wiring socket, automatically realizing the circuit connection, so that the electronic rearview mirror can be powered on and work at the moment of installation.
[0026] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the outer wall of the mounting base 1 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 15 for the connecting shaft 12 to pass through.
[0027] In this embodiment: by opening multiple limiting grooves 15 on the outer wall of the mounting base 1, it is convenient for the connecting shaft 12 to extend out of the mounting base 1 and to limit the position of the locking block 11.
[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the longitudinal cross-sections of both the protrusion 4 and the groove 6 are rectangular.
[0029] In this embodiment, by setting the longitudinal cross-sections of both the protrusion 4 and the groove 6 to rectangles, it is easy to quickly align the card block 11 with the card hole 14.
[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the cross-section of the card block 11 is rectangular.
[0031] In this embodiment, by setting the cross-section of the card block 11 to a rectangle, the card block 11 is prevented from rotating inside the slide groove 10.
[0032] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the side of the card block 11 near the protrusion 4 is inclined.
[0033] In this embodiment: by setting the side of the locking block 11 near the protrusion 4 as an inclined surface, when installing the rearview mirror, the protrusion 4 can be directly inserted into the groove 6 without rotating the rotating ring 8 (the protrusion 4 is pressed into the slide groove 10 by the inclined locking block 11. After the locking block 11 retracts into the slide groove 10, the protrusion 4 can be smoothly inserted into the groove 6. After the locking block 11 is aligned with the locking hole 14, under the elastic force of the spring 13, the locking block 11 automatically locks into the locking hole 14 to fix the protrusion 4).
[0034] The working principle and usage of this utility model are as follows: When disassembling the rearview mirror, rotate the rotating ring 8 counterclockwise. The rotating ring 8 drives multiple locking blocks 11 to slide outward synchronously along the sliding groove 10 through the slot 9 and the connecting shaft 12, thereby causing the locking blocks 11 to disengage from the locking holes 14, and the protrusion 4 to be pulled out of the groove 6, thus removing the rearview mirror. When installing the rearview mirror, rotate the rotating ring 8 counterclockwise again. The rotating ring 8 drives multiple locking blocks 11 to slide outward synchronously along the sliding groove 10 through the slot 9 and the connecting shaft 12, and compresses the spring 13, so that the protrusion 4 on the outer wall of the connecting seat 3 is fully inserted into the groove 6, making the locking blocks 11 engage with the locking holes. Alignment is achieved by releasing the rotating ring 8. Multiple locking blocks 11 slide inward synchronously under the elastic force of the spring 13, engaging with the locking holes 14 to fix the protrusion 4, thus securing the rearview mirror. (Alternatively, when installing the rearview mirror, the rotating ring 8 can be left unrotated; the protrusion 4 can be directly inserted into the groove 6. The protrusion 4 is pressed into the slide groove 10 by the inclined locking blocks 11. After the locking blocks 11 retract into the slide groove 10, the protrusion 4 can smoothly insert into the groove 6. Once the locking blocks 11 are aligned with the locking holes 14, they automatically engage with the locking holes 14 under the elastic force of the spring 13, fixing the protrusion 4.) This invention uses a locking mechanism to install and remove the electronic rearview mirror, making installation and removal convenient.
