Abstract

The inside mirror for vehicles with cabins is another solution for the requirement for a vehicle rear-view mirror. This type of rear-view mirror eliminates the known disadvantages of the external mirror. Disadvantage in terms of flow, an object which can be attacked and destroyed, impaired visibility as a result of morning dew, hoar-frost, raindrops, etc. For this reason, the rear-view mirror in this case remains on the inside of the side of the vehicle. The principle of this inside mirror lies in the fact that the light beams (the image) stream through narrow vertical gaps in the side of the vehicle onto a cylindrical mirror surface and are imaged on a cylindrical lens. Said beams are passed on further to the eye of the driver through the cylindrical lens. A further possibility is to configure the mirror surface and the lens in such a manner (spherical) that the beams are changed and ordered not only horizontally but also vertically. In this case, the outer gap will not be so high. Both designs are intended to be adjustable on all sides by means of mechanical or electrical operation. This inside mirror can be used on both sides of the vehicle, and the following advantages can also be mentioned: reduced air resistance (large outside mirrors are dispensed with); significant reduction of dead angle (blind spot); independence of the weather and thus immediate use is possible; presence of a driver field of view; no longer any object for destruction or vandalism. The entire driving safety during driving or manoeuvring attains new dimensions.

Description

Heutzutage werden bei Kabinenfahrzeugen seitliche Außenspiegel verwendet. Der Innenseitenspiegel soll neues Niveau in die Fahr­ sicherheit bringen. Alle seitliche Außenspiegel gestatten nur eine begrenzte Übersehbarkeit und erweisen folgende Nachteile: Strömungsungünstigkeit, Luftgeräusche, Angriffspunkte für Zer­ störungen, Vandalismusobjekte, und Morgentau, Reif, Regentropfen erschweren Sichtbarkeit.Nowadays, side mirrors are used in cabin vehicles used. The inside mirror is said to bring new levels into the driving bring security. All side mirrors only allow limited visibility and have the following disadvantages: Flow inconvenience, air noise, points of attack for Zer disturbances, vandalism objects, and morning dew, frost, raindrops make visibility difficult.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, wesentlich verbesserte Rückblickeinrichtung für Kabinenfahrzeuge zu schaffen, die eben obengenannte Nachteile beseitigt und besseren Überblick nach rückwärts zuläßt.The invention is based, significantly improved the task To create rearview device for cabin vehicles that just above disadvantages eliminated and better overview after allows backwards.

Das Prinzip dieses Innenseitenspiegels liegt darin, daß durch vertikale schmale Spalte in der Wagenseite die Lichtstrahlen (das Bild) auf walzrunde Spiegelfläche strömen, und sich auf walzrunde Linse abbilden. Durch walzrunde Linse werden diese weiter zum Auge des Fahrers geleitet. Weitere Möglichkeit ist die Spiegelfläche und Linse kugelförmig so zu gestalten, daß nicht nur horizontal sondern auch vertikal die Strahlen ver­ ändert und eingeordnet werden. In diesem Falle wird die Außen­ spalte nicht so hoch sein. Spiegelflächen und Linsen werden in beiden Fällen innerhalb der Wagenseite im Fahrersichtfeld eingebaut und möglicherweise im Armaturenbrett integriert. Beide Ausführungen sollen allseits einstellbar gestaltet werden, da jeder Fahrer durch mechanische oder elektrische Betätigung diesen Spiegel benutzen kann. Dieser Innenseiten­ spiegel überragt die Autosilouette nicht, ist damit strömungs­ günstig und kommt auch nicht mit Morgentau, Reif und Regentrop­ fen in Berührung. Als Vorteil kann man auch wesentliche Toten­ winkelverminderung nennen, und somit die Unfallgefahr vermin­ dern. Außerdem entfallen die großen Außenspiegel, die oftmals beim Rangieren usw. behindern.The principle of this inside mirror is that by vertical narrow column in the car side the light rays (the picture) flow onto the rolled mirror surface and open up Show the round lens. Through a round lens, these are headed to the driver's eye. Another option is to make the mirror surface and lens spherical so that rays not only horizontally but also vertically changes and be classified. In this case, the outside column will not be as high. Mirror surfaces and lenses are in both cases within the vehicle side in the driver's field of vision installed and possibly integrated in the dashboard. Both versions are designed to be adjustable on all sides be because every driver by mechanical or electrical Actuation can use this mirror. This inside pages The mirror does not tower over the autosilouette, so it is fluid cheap and does not come with morning dew, frost and rain drops fen in touch. As an advantage, you can also kill essential dead name the angle reduction and thus reduce the risk of accidents other. In addition, the large exterior mirrors, which are often omitted hinder when maneuvering etc.

Innenseitenspiegel für Kabinenfahrzeuge sind dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Innenseitenspiegel die Lichtstrahlen (das Bild) überträgt mittels vertikaler Spalte in der Wagenseite auf walzrunden Spiegel und die auf walzrunde Linse abbildet. Durch walzrunde Linse werden die Lichtstrahlen zum Auge des Fahrers geleitet. Eine weitere Möglichkeit ist die Spiegelfläche und die Linse so zu gestalten (kugelförmig), daß die Lichtstrahlen nicht nur horizon­ tal sondern auch vertikal verändert und eingeordnet werden. Dieser Ausführung genügt in der Wagenseite nicht so hohe Außenspalte. Damit das Bild im Auge des Fahrers wirklichkeitstreu bleibt, müssen optische Gesetze wie "der Einfallswinkel gleicht dem Ausfallswinkel" und genaue Lage der Linse gegenüber dem Spiegel sorgfältig verfolgt werden.
Spiegelflächen und Linsen werden in beiden Fällen innerhalb der Wagenseite im Fahrersichtfeld eingebaut und möglicherweise im Armaturenbrett integriert. Diesen Innenseitenspiegel kann man als rechten oder linken benutzen.Inside mirrors for cabin vehicles are characterized in that the inside mirror transmits the light beams (the image) by means of vertical gaps in the carriage side to roll-round mirrors and to the roll-round lens. The light rays are directed to the driver's eye through a rolled lens. Another possibility is to design the mirror surface and the lens (spherical) so that the light rays are not only changed horizontally but also vertically and arranged. This design does not suffice for such a large external gap on the side of the car. In order for the image in the driver's eye to remain realistic, optical laws such as "the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection" and the exact position of the lens in relation to the mirror must be carefully followed.
In both cases, mirror surfaces and lenses are installed inside the driver's field of vision and possibly integrated into the dashboard. This inside mirror can be used as right or left.
