Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it unnecessary for a driver to turn his eyes from the front or a thing that he wants to see whenever he confirms the back during his driving by providing mirrors in the inside of a door or a ceiling and in the vicinity of a back mirror and providing a space between them so that an image caught by the mirrors is carried. SOLUTION: A mirror 4 is provided in the inside of the back of a rear door or the back of a ceiling, and a small window 5 is provided in the front of it so that a scenery in a rear side part is caught, an image which is caught is sent to a mirror 2 in a front door or in the front of the ceiling, and furthermore, it is reflected in a new rear view mirror 1 in the vicinity of a rear view mirror. Consequently, a space which sends the image is required between two mirrors, and a driver can confirm the back and a rear side direction simultaneously by the new rear view mirror 1 which reduces the travel of sight. Accordingly, it is unnecessary for the driver to turn his eyes away from the front or a thing that he wants to see every time when he confirms the back during his driving so that he has room to drive his car.

The periscope-type rear-side checker is used to project the view of the rear side to the front of the driver.Even if the actual submarine uses lenses, prisms, etc., it is simply a combination of mirrors There may be only one. In addition, although it is a periscope-type rear-side checker, there is no need to use something like a periscope tube. Mirrors are installed inside the door or ceiling and near the rearview mirror (7). If it is a space so that you can carry the image captured by etc., it is sufficient. Of course, there is no problem even if there is a cylindrical one. By doing so, it is possible to check the rear view mirror, which is the blind spot of the conventional rearview mirror, directly in front of the driver and to check with the new rearview mirror (1), which requires less visual movement when checking the rear. Will be possible. The present invention is a periscope-type rear lateral confirmation device having the above configuration.

一案である。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. Instead of directly looking at the rear side view, which is the blind spot of the conventional rearview mirror, a mirror (4) is installed behind the car, that is, behind the rear door or the ceiling, and a small window (5) is placed in front of it. By capturing, you can capture the rear view. The captured image is sent to a front door or a mirror (2) in front of the ceiling, etc., and from there it is projected to a new rearview mirror (1) near the conventional rearview mirror (7). For this reason, a space is required between the two mirrors so that the tube of the periscope can pass through, that is, the image can be sent, and a small window (3) is also required in the front door or the fitting part in front of the ceiling. The tribar is a new rearview mirror (1) that requires a small amount of visual movement, making it possible to simultaneously check the rear and rear sides. This allows the driver to look twice during driving while checking the rear. Overcoming the drawback of having to deviate from what the front or the tribar wants to see, allows more room for driving. In addition, a mirror or the like (6) that captures the first scenery may be located between the rear of the rear door and the rear of the ceiling, that is, at the rear quarter pillar. In that case, the image captured from there may be displayed behind the rear door or the ceiling. It is sent to a mirror or the like (4), and is similarly projected on a new rearview mirror (1). Furthermore, the periscope-type rear-side checker may be one that uses lenses, prisms, etc. that are attached to the actual submarine, or one that simply combines mirrors, and the periscope tube itself Mirrors can be installed using the interior of the door or ceiling, and if images can be sent, that is all that is needed and there is no need to be present. Finally, it is a good idea to extend the range of view with a fisheye lens (5) in front of the first mirror or the like (4, 6) to capture the scenery first.
