図１１は既設ルームミラーの形状を示す図である。図１１（Ａ）は一般的な形状でシンプルな既設ルームミラーの形状、図１１（ｂ）及び（Ｃ）は近年の安全運転支援装置のセンサーや、シートベルトの警告灯などが組み込まれた異形の既設ルームミラーの形状である。 FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the shape of the existing rearview mirror. FIG. 11A shows a general shape and a simple shape of an existing rear-view mirror, and FIGS. 11B and 11C show a variant shape incorporating a sensor of a recent safe driving support device and a warning light of a seatbelt. It is the shape of the existing rear-view mirror.

図１２は既設ルームミラーに従来の後付けルームミラーを装着した状態を示す図である。図１２（Ａ）は図１１（Ａ）の既設ルームミラー（３）に従来の後付けルームミラー（１１）を装着した状態を示す図、図１２（Ｂ）は図１１（Ｂ）の既設ルームミラー（３）に従来の後付けルームミラー（１１）を装着した状態を示す図、図１２（Ｃ）は図１１（Ｃ）の既設ルームミラーに従来の後付けルームミラー（１１）を装着した状態を示す図である。 FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a state in which a conventional rear-view mirror is attached to an existing rear-view mirror. 12 (A) is a view showing a state in which the conventional rear-view mirror (11) is attached to the existing rear-view mirror (3) of FIG. 11 (A), and FIG. 12 (B) is the existing room mirror of FIG. 11 (B). (3) shows a state in which the conventional rear-view mirror (11) is attached, and FIG. 12 (C) shows a state in which the conventional rear-view mirror (11) is attached to the existing rear-view mirror in FIG. 11 (C). It is a figure.

図１１（Ａ）で示された既設ルームミラー（３）は、概ね角を丸めた横長長方形で上下端縁は比較的水平でシンプルな形状で構成されている。そして、図１２（Ａ）に示されるように、従来の後付けルームミラー（１１）の上下の取付顎も、既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁に相応するように水平で構成されているので、既設ルームミラー（３）に装着後にズレたり脱落したりすることなく、確実に装着することができる。他方、図１１（Ｂ）及び（Ｃ）で示された異形の既設ルームミラーは、安全運転支援装置のセンサなどが組み込まれているので幅方向中央から両端部にかけて上下端縁が大きく傾斜したり、曲線で構成されたりした形状となっている。このため、図１２（Ｂ）のＡ部に示されるように、後付けルームミラー（３）の上下の取付顎が、既設ルームミラー（３）の傾斜したり、曲線で構成されたりした上下端縁に対応できずに片当たりして隙間が生じてしまうことになる。 The existing rear-view mirror (3) shown in FIG. 11 (A) is a horizontally long rectangle with rounded corners, and the upper and lower end edges are relatively horizontal and have a simple shape. As shown in FIG. 12A, the upper and lower mounting jaws of the conventional rear-view mirror (11) are also horizontally configured to correspond to the upper and lower edges of the existing rear-view mirror (3). , It can be securely attached to the existing room mirror (3) without being displaced or dropped after being attached. On the other hand, the deformed existing rear-view mirrors shown in FIGS. 11B and 11C have built-in sensors for safe driving support devices, so the upper and lower edge edges are greatly inclined from the center to both ends in the width direction. , It has a shape composed of curves. Therefore, as shown in part A of FIG. 12B, the upper and lower end edges of the upper and lower mounting jaws of the rear-view mirror (3) are inclined or curved of the existing rear-view mirror (3). It will not be possible to deal with this, and a gap will be created due to one-sided contact.

図１３は図１２（Ｂ）のＡ部拡大図である。図１３に示されるように、後付けルームミラー（１１）の取付顎（１１ｂ）の下側に備えられた上側当接部材（１２）の既設ルームミラー（３）と当接する面は平らな面で形成されており、上側当接部材（１２）の片側一部（図において左側）だけが既設ルームミラー（３）の上端縁に当接し、逆側（図における右側）には隙間が生じている。この状態では、後付けルームミラー（１１）を既設ルームミラー（３）に確実に装着されておらず、装着後に後付けルームミラー（１１）が前後左右にズレたり、手前側に外れて脱落したりするなどの不都合が生じることがある。また、後付けルームミラー（１１）を確実に装着できないばかりではなく、上側当接部材（１２）が既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁の片側だけに不自然な応力がかかることで取付顎（１１ｂ）から外れやすくなるといった不都合が生じることもある。このように近年安全運転支援装置が装着され異形の既設ルームミラーが主流を占めてきた現在では、従来の後付けルームミラーを確実に装着することが難しくなってきている。 FIG. 13 is an enlarged view of part A of FIG. 12 (B). As shown in FIG. 13, the surface of the upper contact member (12) provided on the lower side of the mounting jaw (11b) of the rear-view mirror (11) that comes into contact with the existing room mirror (3) is a flat surface. It is formed, and only a part of one side (left side in the figure) of the upper contact member (12) abuts on the upper end edge of the existing rearview mirror (3), and a gap is formed on the opposite side (right side in the figure). .. In this state, the rear-view mirror (11) is not securely attached to the existing rear-view mirror (3), and the rear-view mirror (11) may shift back and forth and left and right after attachment, or may come off toward the front and fall off. Inconveniences such as may occur. Not only can the rear-view mirror (11) not be securely mounted, but also the upper contact member (12) applies unnatural stress to only one side of the upper and lower end edges of the existing rear-view mirror (3), so that the mounting jaw (12) is mounted. Inconveniences such as easy deviation from 11b) may occur. As described above, in recent years, a safe driving support device has been installed and a deformed existing rear-view mirror has become the mainstream, and it is becoming difficult to reliably install a conventional rear-view rear-view mirror.

そこで本発明の自動車用ルームミラーは、上記課題を解消し、安全運転支援装置のセンサなどが組み込まれて幅方向中央から両端部にかけて上下端縁が大きく傾斜したり、曲線から構成されたりした異形の既設ルームミラーであっても、確実に装着することができる自動車用ルームミラーを提供することを目的とするものである。 Therefore, the rear-view mirror for automobiles of the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems and incorporates a sensor of a safe driving support device, etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a rear-view mirror for automobiles that can be reliably mounted even if it is an existing rear-view mirror.

The figure, the right side view, and FIG. 7 are enlarged views of part A in FIG. Regarding the six views of FIGS. 3 and 4, the left side view is omitted because it is represented by the right side view.

自動車用ルームミラーの本体（１）は、超耐熱グレードのＡＢＳ樹脂などから形成されている。図２に示されるように、フレーム（２）の表面側にはミラー（１ｅ）が備えられ、裏面側には既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁を挟持して装着するための上側取付顎（１ｂ）と上下方向に可動可能な下側取付顎（１ｃ）が突設形成されている。 The main body (1) of the rear-view mirror for automobiles is made of ultra-heat-resistant grade ABS resin or the like. As shown in FIG. 2, a mirror (1e) is provided on the front surface side of the frame (2), and an upper mounting jaw for mounting the upper and lower end edges of the existing room mirror (3) on the back surface side. (1b) and a lower mounting jaw (1c) movable in the vertical direction are formed so as to project.

図１及び図２に示されるように、上側取付顎（１ｂ）の下側には、既設ルームミラー（３）の上端縁を挟持して装着する際の上端縁への傷付防止と、装着時のズレ止めや外れ防止をして確実な装着をするために、適度な弾性を有するゴム素材から形成される上側当接部材（２）が備えられる。また、可動片（１ｄ）の下方端部は後方に突出するようにＬ字状に折り曲げて下側取付顎（１ｃ）が形成され、該下側取付顎（１ｃ）を、図６（Ｂ）の右側面図に示されるように、上側当接部材（２）同様に適度な弾性を有するゴム素材から形成される下側当接部材（２１）の下側取付顎挿入孔（２１ｃ）に圧入して下側取付顎（１ｃ）が構成される。なお、図示しないが下側当接部材（２１）が備えられた下側取付顎（１ｃ）の可動片（１ｄ）に設けた爪に引っかけて取り付けられたバネによって、該バネの作用力に抗しつつ、あるいは作用力に従って上下に移動可能となり、既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁に対し、上側取付顎（１ｂ）と下側取付顎（１ｃ）とを用い、バネの付勢力によって任意の位置に取り付けることができるものである。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the upper end edge of the existing rearview mirror (3) is sandwiched and attached to the lower side of the upper attachment jaw (1b) to prevent scratches on the upper end edge and to attach the mirror. An upper contact member (2) made of a rubber material having appropriate elasticity is provided in order to prevent the time from slipping and to prevent the mounting from coming off. Further, the lower end portion of the movable piece (1d) is bent in an L shape so as to project rearward to form a lower mounting jaw (1c), and the lower mounting jaw (1c) is shown in FIG. 6 (B). As shown in the right side view of, is press-fitted into the lower mounting jaw insertion hole (21c) of the lower contact member (21) formed of a rubber material having appropriate elasticity as well as the upper contact member (2). The lower mounting jaw (1c) is configured. Although not shown, a spring attached by hooking on a claw provided on a movable piece (1d) of a lower mounting jaw (1c) provided with a lower contact member (21) resists the acting force of the spring. It can be moved up and down while or according to the acting force, and the upper mounting jaw (1b) and the lower mounting jaw (1c) are used with respect to the upper and lower edge of the existing room mirror (3), and it is arbitrary by the urging force of the spring. It can be attached to the position of.

図３乃至図６に示されるように、上側当接部材（２）と下側当接部材（２１）とは何れも適度な弾性を有するゴム素材から形成されている。上側当接部材（２）は、底面側が凸面部（２ａ）で形成され、その幅方向の両端からフラップ（２ａ）がそれぞれ外方かつ下方に向けて先端が開脚するようにハの字状に開脚して突出形成されている。凸面部（２ａ）は柱面で形成され、曲面方向は本体（１）の幅方向と平行になるように形成される。なお、凸面部（２ａ）は柱面に限定されるものではなく、既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁の傾斜と曲線に合わせて凸面部（２ａ）の曲面が対応すれば良い。後述の図１０の上側当接部材（２－２）の凸面の他の例を示す図も参照されたい。また、図５のＢに示されるように、上側当接部材（２）に形成された凸面部（２ｂ）の頂点よりも一対のフラップ（２ａ）の先端の高さ位置が高く形成され、これによって既設ルームミラー（３）の上端縁により強く一対のフラップ（２ａ）を当接（圧接）することが可能となる。また、下側当接部材（２１）は、上側当接部材（２）とは上下逆に構成され、下側当接部材（２１）は、平面側が凸面部（２１ａ）で形成され、その幅方向の両端からフラップ（２１ａ）がそれぞれ外方かつ上方に向けて先端が開脚するように逆ハの字状に開脚して突出形成されている。凸面部（２１ａ）は柱面で形成され、曲面方向は本体（１）の幅方向と平行になるように形成される。なお、凸面部（２１ａ）は柱面に限定されるものではなく、既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁の傾斜と曲線に合わせて凸面部（２１ａ）の曲面が対応すれば良い。後述の図１０の上側当接部材（２－２）の凸面の他の例を示す図も参照されたい。また、また、図６のＢに示されるように、下側当接部材（２１）に形成された凸面部（２１ｂ）の頂点よりも一対のフラップ（２１ａ）の先端の高さ位置が高く形成され、これによって既設ルームミラー（３）の下端縁により強く一対のフラップ（２ａ）を当接（圧接）することが可能となる。 As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, both the upper contact member (2) and the lower contact member (21) are formed of a rubber material having appropriate elasticity. The upper abutting member (2) is formed of a convex surface portion (2a) on the bottom surface side, and has a C shape so that the flaps (2a) open outward and downward from both ends in the width direction. The legs are opened to form a protrusion. The convex surface portion (2a) is formed by a pillar surface, and the curved surface direction is formed so as to be parallel to the width direction of the main body (1). The convex surface portion (2a) is not limited to the pillar surface, and the curved surface portion of the convex surface portion (2a) may correspond to the inclination of the upper and lower end edges of the existing rearview mirror (3) and the curve. See also the figure showing another example of the convex surface of the upper contact member (2-2) of FIG. 10 described later. Further, as shown in B of FIG. 5, the height position of the tip of the pair of flaps (2a) is formed higher than the apex of the convex surface portion (2b) formed on the upper contact member (2). This makes it possible to strongly abut (press) the pair of flaps (2a) on the upper end edge of the existing rearview mirror (3). Further, the lower contact member (21) is configured upside down from the upper contact member (2), and the lower contact member (21) is formed of a convex surface portion (21a) on the flat side and has a width thereof. The flaps (21a) are formed to project from both ends in the direction by opening the legs in an inverted C shape so that the tips of the flaps (21a) open outward and upward. The convex surface portion (21a) is formed by a pillar surface, and the curved surface direction is formed so as to be parallel to the width direction of the main body (1). The convex surface portion (21a) is not limited to the pillar surface, and the curved surface portion of the convex surface portion (21a) may correspond to the inclination of the upper and lower end edges of the existing rearview mirror (3) and the curve. See also the figure showing another example of the convex surface of the upper contact member (2-2) of FIG. 10 described later. Further, as shown in B of FIG. 6, the height position of the tip of the pair of flaps (21a) is higher than the apex of the convex surface portion (21b) formed on the lower contact member (21). This makes it possible to strongly abut (press) the pair of flaps (2a) on the lower end edge of the existing rearview mirror (3).

このように形成された上側当接部材（２）と下側当接部材（２１）の、既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁を挟持して装着する際の作用について説明をする。図７は図１のＡ部拡大図、図８は上側当接部材（２）の作用を示す図である。なお、上側当接部材（２）と下側当接部材（２１）とは、上下が逆であるだけの相違であるので、図７及び図８においては、上側当接部材（２）を例にして説明をする。 The operation of the upper contact member (2) and the lower contact member (21) formed in this way when the upper and lower end edges of the existing rearview mirror (3) are sandwiched and mounted will be described. FIG. 7 is an enlarged view of part A in FIG. 1, and FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the operation of the upper contact member (2). Since the upper contact member (2) and the lower contact member (21) are different only in that they are upside down, the upper contact member (2) is taken as an example in FIGS. 7 and 8. And explain.

図７は既設ルームミラー（３）に本体（１）を装着したときの、上側取付顎（１ｂ）の下側に備えられた上側当接部材（２）と既設ルームミラー（３）の上端縁とが当接した状態を示している。なお、本体（１）は既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁に対し、上側取付顎（１ｂ）と下側取付顎（１ｃ）とで、バネの付勢力によって押圧されながら挟持されている状態である。図７に示されるように、既設ルームミラー（３）の上端縁は、傾斜するとともに曲線からなり、この形状に対応する上側当接部材（２）の凸面部（２ｂ）の部分（図中の当接部参照）が当接する。さらに、図に示されるように一対のフラップ（２ａ）が傾斜と曲線に合わせて適宜撓み、３か所で当接して押圧されることになる。 FIG. 7 shows the upper end contact member (2) provided on the lower side of the upper mounting jaw (1b) and the upper end edge of the existing room mirror (3) when the main body (1) is attached to the existing room mirror (3). Indicates a state in which and is in contact with each other. The main body (1) is held by the upper mounting jaw (1b) and the lower mounting jaw (1c) with respect to the upper and lower end edges of the existing rearview mirror (3) while being pressed by the urging force of the spring. Is. As shown in FIG. 7, the upper end edge of the existing rearview mirror (3) is inclined and curved, and the convex portion (2b) portion (2b) of the upper contact member (2) corresponding to this shape (in the figure). (Refer to the contact part) comes into contact. Further, as shown in the figure, the pair of flaps (2a) flexes appropriately according to the inclination and the curve, and abuts and is pressed at three places.

図８は上側当接部材（２）の作用を示す図で、既設ルームミラー（３）に装着したとき、上側当接部材（２）の幅方向の両端からフラップ（２ａ）がそれぞれ外方かつ下方に向けて先端が開脚するようにハの字状に開脚して突出形成されていることで、例えば左側のフラップ（２ａ）は本体（１）が左側にズレようとする力に対して、突っ張って踏ん張る作用を得ることができる。右側のフラップ（２ａ）も本体（１）が右側にズレようとする力に対して、突っ張って踏ん張る作用を得ることができる。この作用によって、本体（１）の左右方向のズレを確実に防止する効果を得ることができる。なお、図示しないが、下側当接部材（２１）も上側当接部材（２）と上下が逆なだけであるので、同様な作用と効果を得ることができる。このように形成された一対の上側当接部材（２）と一対の下側当接部材（２１）との合わせて４か所で既設ルームミラー（３）の上下端縁を挟持して確実に装着することが可能となったものである。 FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the operation of the upper contact member (2), and when mounted on the existing rearview mirror (3), the flaps (2a) are outward from both ends in the width direction of the upper contact member (2). The flap (2a) on the left side, for example, has a flap (2a) on the left side against the force that the main body (1) tends to shift to the left side because the legs are opened in a V shape so that the tip opens downward. It is possible to obtain the action of stretching and stepping on. The flap (2a) on the right side can also obtain the action of stretching and stepping on the force that the main body (1) tends to shift to the right side. By this action, it is possible to obtain the effect of surely preventing the main body (1) from being displaced in the left-right direction. Although not shown, the lower contact member (21) is only upside down from the upper contact member (2), so that the same action and effect can be obtained. The pair of upper and lower contact members (2) and the pair of lower contact members (21) formed in this way are surely sandwiched between the upper and lower end edges of the existing rearview mirror (3) at four places. It is possible to install it.

図９は上側当接部材と下側当接部材の他の例を示す図である。図９（Ａ）は上側当接部材（２－１）の正面図とＡ－Ａ線断面図、図９（Ｂ）は下側当接部材（２１－１）の正面図とＡ－Ａ線断面図で他の例を示す図である。図９に示されるように、上側当接部材（２－１）の凸面部（２ｂ）と下側当接部材（２１－１）の凸面部（２１ｂ）の前面にストッパー（２ｄ）（２１ｄ）を立設して形成した。このストッパー（２ｄ）（２１ｄ）によって、本体（１）を既設ルームミラー（３）に装着したときに本体（１）が手前方向に外れて脱落することを防止して確実な装着をすることが可能となるものである。 FIG. 9 is a diagram showing another example of the upper contact member and the lower contact member. 9 (A) is a front view of the upper contact member (2-1) and a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA, and FIG. 9 (B) is a front view of the lower contact member (21-1) and a line AA. It is a figure which shows another example in the sectional view. As shown in FIG. 9, stoppers (2d) (21d) are placed on the front surfaces of the convex surface portion (2b) of the upper contact member (2-1) and the convex surface portion (21b) of the lower contact member (21-1). Was erected and formed. The stoppers (2d) and (21d) prevent the main body (1) from coming off and falling off when the main body (1) is attached to the existing rear-view mirror (3), so that the main body (1) can be securely attached. It is possible.

図１０は上側当接部材（２－２）の凸面の他の例を示す図である。下側当接部材についても同様であるので図示は省略する。上側当接部材（２－２）の凸面（２ｂ－１）は、イボ状の突起を集合体として多数配置して形成したものである。この多数のイボ状突起の頂点によって、凸面を形成することが可能となるものである。また、図示しないがイボ状突起に限らず、四角錐や円錐でも良く同様の効果を得ることができる。 FIG. 10 is a diagram showing another example of the convex surface of the upper contact member (2-2). The same applies to the lower contact member, so the illustration is omitted. The convex surface (2b-1) of the upper contact member (2-2) is formed by arranging a large number of wart-shaped protrusions as an aggregate. The vertices of this large number of wart-like protrusions make it possible to form a convex surface. Further, although not shown, the same effect can be obtained not only with wart-shaped protrusions but also with a quadrangular pyramid or a cone.
