Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of side mirror technology, and more specifically, to an automatic rebound side mirror and an all-terrain vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] As people's pursuit of a better life and their desire for outdoor exploration grow stronger, UTVs (all-terrain vehicles) are becoming increasingly popular.

[0003] In related technologies, existing UTV rearview mirrors only have simple rearview functions and a relatively simple rotation structure, which can only rotate on a single axis and cannot effectively adjust the mirror angle to meet the driver's vision needs. In addition, because the driving environment of UTVs is usually quite harsh, the rearview mirrors often collide with the external environment, causing the mirror angle to change. The driver needs to repeatedly adjust the rearview mirrors while driving, which is not only inconvenient to use, but also poses a safety hazard due to driver distraction during the adjustment process. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to at least address some of the deficiencies mentioned in the related technologies, this application provides an automatic rebound side mirror and an all-terrain vehicle.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, an automatic rebound side mirror is provided for use on an all-terrain vehicle. The automatic rebound side mirror includes a fixing component, a mirror component, and an adjustment component. The mirror component includes a housing and a mirror body. The housing is connected to the all-terrain vehicle via the fixing component, and the mirror body is installed within the housing via the adjustment component. The rebound component includes a rotating bracket and a reset component. The rotating bracket is mounted on the fixing component, and the reset component is slidably mounted within the rotating bracket. An elastic element is provided between the reset component and the rotating bracket to automatically reset the reset component after relative sliding between them. The housing is rotatably mounted on the rotating bracket, and a rod is provided on the portion of the housing that is mounted inside the rotating bracket; a contact surface is provided on one end face of the reset member facing the rod, and at least two limiting portions are provided on the contact surface, and the rod can be engaged in the limiting portions so that the rod and the reset member are relatively fixed; as the rod moves from one of the limiting portions to the other, it can push the reset member to slide relative to the rotating bracket.

[0006] Furthermore, the housing is provided with a connecting part, and the connecting part, the reset member and the rotating bracket are all configured as rotating bodies, and the connecting part, the reset member and the rotating bracket are concentrically arranged.

[0007] Furthermore, a rotating shaft is installed at the center of the connecting part; one end of the rotating shaft is installed in the connecting part, and the end of the rotating shaft away from the connecting part extends vertically and passes through the reset member, the rotating bracket and the elastic member in sequence.

[0008] The elastic element is mounted on the rotating shaft at one end away from the connecting part, one end of the elastic element abuts against the reset element, and the end of the elastic element away from the reset element abuts against the end of the rotating shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, a mounting hole is provided at the center of the connecting part, a stop block is provided at one end of the rotating shaft, the stop block is installed in the mounting hole, and a plane bearing is also provided between the stop block and the mounting hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting part includes at least a first groove and a second groove. The first groove and the second groove are both symmetrically arranged around the rotation center of the reset member, and the rod can be simultaneously engaged in multiple symmetrically arranged first grooves or multiple second grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, the contact surface between the first groove and the second groove is inclined circumferentially along the reset member, so that when the rod moves between the first groove and the second groove, it can drive the reset member to slide relative to the rotating bracket. The edges of both the first groove and the second groove smoothly transition to the contact surface.

[0012] Furthermore, a first anti-slip tooth is provided on the inner wall of the end of the rotating bracket facing the reset member, and a second anti-slip tooth is provided on the outer wall of the end of the reset member facing the rotating bracket. The first anti-slip tooth can engage with the second anti-slip tooth to restrict the relative rotation of the rotating bracket and the reset member.

[0013] Furthermore, both the first anti-slip tooth and the second anti-slip tooth extend along the sliding direction of the reset member. The length of the first anti-slip tooth is L1, and the length of the second anti-slip tooth is L2, satisfying that L2≤L1. A threaded hole is provided on the outer wall of the rotating bracket corresponding to the position of the first anti-slip tooth, and a limiting screw capable of abutting against the second anti-slip tooth is installed in the threaded hole.

[0014] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment ball and a fixing rod. The adjustment ball is located at the center of one side of the lens body facing the housing, and the fixing rod is located on the adjustment ball at a position away from the lens body. An adjustment groove adapted to the adjustment ball is formed at a corresponding position on the housing, and a fixing groove penetrating the housing is also formed within the adjustment groove. The inner diameter of the fixing groove is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing rod.

[0015] The fixing rod passes through the fixing groove, and the adjusting ball is installed in the adjusting groove; the end of the fixing rod is provided with an abutment, which abuts against the outer wall of the housing and can slide relative to the housing.

[0016] This application also provides an all-terrain vehicle, including a vehicle body and an automatic rebound side mirror as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the automatic rebound side mirror is mounted on the vehicle body.

[0017] The above technical solution allows the mirror assembly to be mounted on an all-terrain vehicle using a fixing component, and the mirror body can be positioned appropriately by adjusting the component. During driving, if the mirror assembly collides with the external environment, causing it to swing, the housing within the mirror assembly will drive the rod to rotate synchronously. The rod will then rotate from its initial position on the reset component, i.e., within one limiting part, to another limiting part. During this movement, it will compress the reset component and simultaneously compress the elastic element, causing the reset component to slide relative to the rotating bracket.

[0018] If the swing angle of the mirror assembly is small and insufficient to move the rod from one limiting part to another, the elastic element is released after the mirror assembly stops swinging, that is, after the rod stops swinging. This pushes the reset element back to its original position, which causes the rod to return to the limiting part of its initial position, that is, to return the mirror assembly to the position before the collision.

[0019] If the swing angle of the mirror assembly is large, it will cause the rod to move from the limiting part in the initial position to another limiting part. The rod will then be fixed relative to the limiting part and stay in that limiting part, that is, the mirror assembly will stay in the position after the collision.

[0020] The automatic rebound side mirror of this application, when in use, allows for fine-tuning of the relative position between the mirror body and the housing by adjusting the mirror assembly after it has been installed in a suitable position on the vehicle body using a fixing component. This ensures the mirror body is at a suitable angle to meet the driver's field of vision needs. Furthermore, in the event of a collision with an external object, the mirror assembly can automatically reset within a certain range, eliminating the need for the driver to frequently turn the rearview mirror, making it more convenient to use and enhancing driving safety.

[0021] Other features and advantages of this application will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0027] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "setup" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0028] This embodiment provides an automatic rebound side mirror to solve the problems in the related technology, such as the limited adjustment of the rearview mirror angle of existing all-terrain vehicles and the inability of the rearview mirror to automatically return to its original position after a collision with the outside world.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 6 ,as well as Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, an automatic rebound side mirror is used on an all-terrain vehicle (ATV). The automatic rebound side mirror includes a fixing assembly 100, a mirror assembly 200, and an adjustment assembly. The mirror assembly 200 includes a housing 210 and a mirror body 220. The housing 210 is connected to the ATV via the fixing assembly 100, and the mirror body 220 is installed within the housing 210 via the adjustment assembly. The rebound assembly 300 includes a rotating bracket 310 and a reset member 320. The rotating bracket 310 is mounted on the fixing assembly 100, and the reset member 320 is slidably mounted within the rotating bracket 310. An elastic member 330 is provided between the reset member 320 and the rotating bracket 310, so that the reset member 320 automatically resets after relative sliding with the rotating bracket 310. The housing 210 is rotatably mounted on the rotating bracket 310, and a rod 420 is provided on the portion of the housing 210 that is mounted inside the rotating bracket 310; a contact surface is provided on one end face of the reset member 320 facing the rod 420, and at least two limiting portions 321 are provided on the contact surface. The rod 420 can be engaged in the limiting portion 321 so that the rod 420 and the reset member 320 are relatively fixed; as the rod 420 moves from one limiting portion 321 to another limiting portion 321, it can push the reset member 320 to slide relative to the rotating bracket 310.

[0030] Specifically, when using the automatic rebound side mirror of this embodiment, the mirror assembly 200 is installed in a suitable position on the all-terrain vehicle via the fixing assembly 100, and the relative position of the mirror body 220 and the housing 210 is adjusted by the adjusting assembly so that the mirror body 220 can meet the driver's vision requirements.

[0031] When the mirror assembly 200 collides with the external environment, since the housing 210 is rotatably mounted on the rotating bracket 310, and the housing 210 contains a rod 420 that can rotate synchronously with the housing 210, the housing 210 will drive the rod 420 to rotate synchronously after the collision. The reset member 320 is slidably mounted in the rotating bracket 310, and an elastic member 330 is provided between the two; at the same time, the rod 420 abuts against the abutment surface of the reset member 320 and is located within a limiting part 321.

[0032] When the housing 210 drives the rod 420 to rotate, the rod 420 disengages from the limiting part 321 in the initial position, rotates along the abutting surface of the reset member 320, and through compression, the reset member 320 compresses the elastic member 330 and slides relative to the rotating bracket 310.

[0033] If the collision between the mirror assembly 200 and the external environment is minor, and the housing 210 is insufficient to rotate the rod 420 to the next limiting part 321, then after the rod 420 stops rotating, the compressed elastic element 330 will release, pushing the reset element 320 back to its original position. During the process of the reset element 320 returning to its original position, it will cause the rod 420 to rotate along the contact surface, causing the rod 420 to return to the limiting part 321 at its initial position. This means the housing 210 returns to its initial position before the collision, and the mirror assembly 200 also returns to its initial position before the collision.

[0034] If the mirror assembly 200 experiences a significant collision with the external environment, the housing 210 will cause the rod 420 to rotate, moving it into the next limiting part 321. The rod 420 will then be fixed relative to the limiting part 321, that is, fixed relative to the reset member 320. The elastic member 330 will then be unable to release, causing the reset member 320 to return to its original position. The housing 210 will then remain in its current position and will no longer rotate.

[0035] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the positions of each limiting part 321 can be arbitrarily set according to actual needs to meet the rotation or reset requirements of the mirror assembly 200. For example, in this embodiment, the initial limiting part 321 on the reset member 320 needs to rotate 90° with the next limiting part 321. Therefore, if the mirror assembly 200 swings less than 90° after a collision, it can automatically reset; and the mirror assembly 200 can stop at a position with a swing angle of 90°. Alternatively, if only one limiting part 321 is provided on the reset member 320, then regardless of where the rod 420 rotates, it will reset under the action of the elastic member 330. That is, the mirror assembly 200 will automatically reset after swinging at any angle.

[0036] The automatic rebound side mirror of this embodiment allows for flexible adjustment of the mirror body 220 via an adjustment component, ensuring that the mirror body 220 meets the driver's field of vision requirements. After the mirror assembly 200 collides with the external environment, it can automatically reset within a certain range without requiring manual reset by the driver, thus enhancing driving safety. Even if the swing angle is too large, causing the mirror assembly 200 to stop at a certain position, the driver only needs to rotate the mirror assembly 200 to move it out of its current position for it to automatically reset, eliminating the need for careful manual adjustment and making it simpler and more convenient to use.

[0037] It is understood that the structure of the fixing component 100 is not limited in this embodiment. As long as it meets the requirements of this embodiment, the mirror component 200 can be reasonably installed in a suitable position on the all-terrain vehicle. For example, the fixing component 100 may include a pipe clamp 110 and a ball joint 120. The pipe clamp 110 is used to install the mirror component 200 on a vehicle of any size or model, and the ball joint 120 is used to adjust the position of the mirror component 200 more flexibly, so that the mirror component 200 better meets the driver's vision requirements. Of course, the fixing component 100 can also be set to any other existing parts or structures according to actual needs.

[0038] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figures 2 to 6The housing 210 is provided with a connecting part 211. The connecting part 211, the reset member 320, and the rotating bracket 310 are all rotating bodies, and the connecting part 211, the reset member 320, and the rotating bracket 310 are concentrically arranged. The fact that all three are rotating bodies and are coaxially arranged ensures that when the housing 210 is subjected to an external impact, the rotation path is regular and the force direction is consistent; this avoids problems such as jamming, offset, or irregular movement trajectory caused by eccentric rotation, and improves the rotational stability and response sensitivity of the mirror assembly 200.

[0039] The concentric structure makes the relative motion trajectory between the rod 420 and the limiting part 321 predictable and controllable; during the reset process, the process of the reset member 320 sliding along the axis and the compression and release of the elastic member 330 is more stable, which is conducive to the mirror assembly 200 returning to the initial position quickly and accurately, making the structure of this embodiment more reasonable.

[0040] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figures 2 to 6 A rotating shaft 400 is installed at the center of the connecting part 211. One end of the rotating shaft 400 is installed on the connecting part 211, and the end of the rotating shaft 400 away from the connecting part 211 extends vertically and passes through the reset member 320, the rotating bracket 310, and the elastic member 330 in sequence. The elastic member 330 is installed on the end of the rotating shaft 400 away from the connecting part 211, one end of the elastic member 330 abuts against the reset member 320, and the other end of the elastic member 330 abuts against the end of the rotating shaft 400.

[0041] In this embodiment, one end of the rotating shaft 400 is installed at the center of the connecting part 211, and the other end passes through the reset member 320, the rotating bracket 310, and the elastic member 330 in sequence. Then, at the end of the rotating shaft 400, the elastic member 330 is engaged by setting any suitable structure such as a shim or baffle, so that one end of the elastic member 330 abuts against the reset member 320, and the other end abuts against the shim or other structure at the end of the rotating shaft 400. It is worth mentioning that the reset member 320 and the rotating bracket 310 are both provided with channels suitable for the engagement of the rotating shaft 400, and the elastic member 330 can also be set as any suitable component such as a spring or a compression spring.

[0042] The rotating shaft 400 passes through the reset component 320, the rotating bracket 310, and the elastic component 330, forming a central support axis. This makes the entire rebound assembly 300 more stable during rotation and reset, preventing shaking, jamming, or abnormal noise caused by structural eccentricity or looseness. The elastic component 330 is arranged axially along the rotating shaft 400. Its compression and release processes are in the same direction and the path is controllable, allowing the reset component 320 to be uniformly compressed and quickly reset after being pushed by the rod 420, improving the sensitivity and consistency of the rebound action.

[0043] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figures 2 to 6A mounting hole 212 is provided at the center of the connecting part 211. A stop block 410 is provided at one end of the rotating shaft 400, and the stop block 410 is installed in the mounting hole 212. A plane bearing 411 is also provided between the stop block 410 and the mounting hole 212. In this way, when the mirror assembly 200 swings, one end of the rotating shaft 400 contacts the housing 210 through the plane bearing 411, while the other end of the rotating shaft 400 only contacts the elastic element 330, which only reciprocates along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 400. The plane bearing 411 mainly bears the axial load and allows relative rotation between the two components. When the mirror assembly 200 swings, the swing torque is borne by the plane bearing 411, rather than acting directly on the rotating shaft 400. That is to say, the rotating shaft 400 will not be subjected to friction or other stress caused by rotation, preventing the rotating shaft 400 from loosening after long-term use.

[0044] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figures 2 to 6 The limiting part 321 includes at least a first groove 322 and a second groove 323. The first groove 322 and the second groove 323 are symmetrically arranged around the rotation center of the reset member 320. The rod 420 can be simultaneously engaged in multiple symmetrically arranged first grooves 322 or multiple symmetrically arranged second grooves 323. The symmetrical distribution of the first grooves 322 and the second grooves 323 around the rotation center of the reset member 320 ensures that the force direction is always symmetrical when the rod 420 is engaged in different grooves, avoiding eccentricity, tilting, or localized wear caused by unilateral force, thus improving structural stability and service life.

[0045] The rod 420 does not only contact one slot, but can simultaneously engage with multiple symmetrically distributed slots. In other words, the rod 420 has a certain length, allowing it to pass through multiple slots at the same time. This multi-point contact structure significantly enhances the connection rigidity between the rod 420 and the reset member 320, preventing detachment or slippage due to single-point failure.

[0046] The precise and symmetrical distribution of multiple first grooves 322 or multiple second grooves 323 ensures that the rod 420 maintains a consistent reset angle when entering any groove, thereby improving the angular consistency of the mirror assembly 200 after automatic reset and meeting the driver's visual stability requirements.

[0047] The first groove 322 and the second groove 323 can each correspond to different limiting angles, which can realize the functional logic of "automatic reset at small angles and locking at large angles", enhancing the practicality of this embodiment.

[0048] Furthermore, since the grooves are symmetrically distributed around the rotation center, the rod 420 can smoothly enter the corresponding groove regardless of which direction the mirror component 200 collides from, achieving omnidirectional limiting and response consistency, and improving the adaptability of this embodiment under complex road conditions.

[0049] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the contact surfaces between the first groove 322 and the second groove 323 are inclined along the circumference of the reset member 320, so that when the rod 420 moves between the first groove 322 and the second groove 323, it can drive the reset member 320 to slide relative to the rotating bracket 310. The edges of the first groove 322 and the second groove 323 smoothly transition to the contact surface. When the mirror assembly 200 is impacted and rotates, the rod 420 disengages from the first groove 322 and moves along the inclined contact surface to the second groove 323. Since there is an angle between the inclined surface and the contact surface of the rod 420, the rotation of the rod 420 will push the reset member 320 to slide axially along the rotating shaft 400, thereby converting the rotation of the rod 420 into the sliding of the reset member 320. No additional driving components are required, resulting in a compact structure and sensitive response.

[0050] The tilt angle can control the speed and force of the sliding of the reset component 320, making the sliding process more linear and smooth, ensuring that the elastic component 330 is subjected to uniform force during compression and release, and improving the consistency and stability of the reset action.

[0051] The edges of the first groove 322 and the second groove 323 are smoothly transitioned to the inclined surface, avoiding jamming, increased friction, or stress concentration caused by sharp corners or steps. This ensures that the rod 420 can smoothly detach from the first groove 322 or the second groove 323 after the housing 210 of the mirror assembly 200 is subjected to external impact, and also allows the rod 420 to move smoothly and without impact when switching between grooves, thus improving the overall durability of the structure.

[0052] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a first anti-slip tooth 311 is provided on the inner wall of the end of the rotating bracket 310 facing the reset member 320, and a second anti-slip tooth 324 is provided on the outer wall of the end of the reset member 320 facing the rotating bracket 310. The first anti-slip tooth 311 can engage with the second anti-slip tooth 324 to restrict the relative rotation of the rotating bracket 310 and the reset member 320. When the mirror assembly 200 swings or collides, if the reset member 320 and the rotating bracket 310 rotate relative to each other, it will cause the rod 420 and the groove to misalign and the limiting function to fail, affecting the reset function. The anti-slip tooth engagement structure effectively prevents this rotational deviation and ensures that the reset member 320 is always in the correct limiting angle and engagement state.

[0053] Furthermore, the anti-slip teeth only restrict the circumferential rotational degree of freedom, while the axial sliding degree of freedom remains open. In this way, under the push of the rod 420, the reset member 320 can still slide smoothly along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 400, compress the elastic member 330 and realize the reset function without affecting the automatic reset mechanism.

[0054] Please continue reading. Figure 2 , Figure 3 The first anti-slip tooth 311 and the second anti-slip tooth 324 both extend along the sliding direction of the reset member 320. The length of the first anti-slip tooth 311 is L1, and the length of the second anti-slip tooth 324 is L2, satisfying L2≤L1. A threaded hole is provided on the outer wall of the rotating bracket 310 corresponding to the position of the first anti-slip tooth 311, and a limiting screw 312 that can abut against the second anti-slip tooth 324 is installed in the threaded hole. The length of the second anti-slip tooth 324 is less than the length of the first anti-slip tooth 311. In this way, when the reset member 320 slides along the rotating shaft 400 under the action of the elastic member 330, the second anti-slip tooth 324 is always within the coverage area of ​​the first anti-slip tooth 311. Even if multiple reset actions or frequent collisions occur, it can effectively prevent the anti-slip teeth from disengaging, improving the movement continuity and reliability of the structure.

[0055] By adjusting the screw depth of the limiting screw 312, the second anti-slip tooth 324 can be fixed in a specific position, thereby locking the relative angle between the reset component 320 and the rotating bracket 310. This ensures that the mirror assembly 200 is always in the set initial position after leaving the factory or after installation, meeting the driver's visibility requirements. The threaded hole, in conjunction with the limiting screw 312, allows for fine-tuning and calibration of the mirror angle during assembly, eliminating the need for an additional angle adjustment structure, simplifying the overall design while improving assembly accuracy. Of course, the limiting screw 312 only restricts the relative rotation between the reset component 320 and the rotating bracket 310 and does not affect the normal sliding of the reset component 320.

[0056] In one embodiment, exemplarily, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment ball 221 and a fixing rod 222. The adjustment ball 221 is located at the center of the side of the lens body 220 facing the housing 210, and the fixing rod 222 is located on the adjustment ball 221 away from the lens body 220. An adjustment groove 213, adapted to the adjustment ball 221, is provided on the housing 210 at a corresponding position. A fixing groove 214, penetrating the housing 210, is also provided within the adjustment groove 213. The inner diameter of the fixing groove 214 is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing rod 222. The fixing rod 222 passes through the fixing groove 214, and the adjustment ball 221 is installed within the adjustment groove 213. An abutment 223 is provided at the end of the fixing rod 222, abutting against the outer wall of the housing 210 and capable of sliding relative to the housing 210.

[0057] After the mirror body 220 is installed on the housing 210, the fixing rod 222 passes through the adjustment groove 213 and extends to the outside of the adjustment groove 213. At this time, the adjusting ball 221 is installed in the adjustment groove 213, and the end of the fixing rod 222 abuts against the outer wall of the housing 210 through the abutment member 223. When it is necessary to fine-tune the relative position of the mirror body 220 and the housing 210, the driver or operator can simply press the mirror body 220. Since the mirror body 220 and the housing 210 are connected by a ball joint, and the inner diameter of the fixing groove 214 is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing rod 222, the mirror body 220 has a certain degree of freedom. After pressing to adjust to the appropriate position, the mirror body 220 will stop at the current position due to the interference fit, making the operation simple and convenient.

[0058] The fixing rod 222 passes through the fixing groove 214 and serves as a guide rod during the adjustment of the microscope body 220. The inner diameter of the fixing groove 214 is slightly larger than that of the fixing rod 222, allowing the fixing rod 222 to slide within a certain range to achieve fine adjustment. This does not restrict the degree of freedom of adjustment, but also prevents the microscope body 220 from excessively shifting or falling off.

[0059] The abutment 223 is installed at the end of the fixing rod 222. By adjusting its tightness, the degree of freedom of adjustment of the mirror body 220 can be controlled. It can be adjusted directly to an interference fit, or the abutment 223 can be loosened during adjustment, and after adjusting to a suitable angle, the abutment 223 can be tightened to lock the angle of the mirror body 220, preventing displacement due to vibration during use. The abutment 223 can be any existing component, as long as it meets the requirements of this embodiment. For example, the end of the fixing rod 222 is threaded, and the abutment 223 is a nut.

[0060] In one embodiment, for example, a decorative element is provided on the housing 210 to cover and protect the structure of the fixing rod 222 extending to the outside of the housing 210, thereby improving the overall practicality and aesthetics of the housing 210.

[0061] This embodiment also provides an all-terrain vehicle, including a vehicle body and an automatic rebound side mirror as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the automatic rebound side mirror is mounted on the vehicle body.

[0062] The all-terrain vehicle in this embodiment includes the automatic rebound side mirror in any of the above embodiments, and thus possesses all the beneficial effects of the automatic rebound side mirror, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0063] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0064] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
