상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 차체 또는 윈드시일드 글라스에 고정되는 미러베이스와 이미러베이스에 형성된 볼조인트 및 이볼조인트에 삽입되어 각도 조절이 가능한 경면을 갖춘 미러하우징으로 이루어진 차량용 룸미러에 있어서, 상기 미러베이스의 볼조인트와 미러하우징의 볼조인트사이에는 연결바아가설치되어 각각의 볼조인트들을 지점으로 연결바아와 미러하우징의 회전각도가 자유롭게 이루어지도록 되어 있다.The present invention for achieving the above object is a vehicle room mirror consisting of a mirror base is fixed to the vehicle body or windshield glass and a mirror housing having a mirror housing which is inserted into the ball joint and the e-ball joint and adjustable in angle In the present invention, a connection bar is provided between the ball joint of the mirror base and the ball joint of the mirror housing so that the rotation angles of the connection bar and the mirror housing are freely formed at the respective ball joints.

이하 본 발명을 첨부된 예시도면에 의거 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도1과 도2는 본 발명에 따른 차량용 룸미러의 각도 조절장치를 나타낸 결합 단면도와 분리사시도 이다.1 and 2 is a combined cross-sectional view and an exploded perspective view showing the angle adjusting device of the vehicle room mirror according to the present invention.

본 발명은 차체 또는 윈드시일드글라스에 고정되는 미러베이스(1)와 이 미러베이스(1)에 형성된 볼조인트(2) 및 이 볼조인트(2)에 삽입되어 각도조절이 가능한 경면(3)을 갖춘 미러하우징(4)으로 이루어진 차량용 룸미러에 있어서, 상기 미러베이스(1)의 볼조인트(2)와 미러하우징(4)의 볼조인트(5) 사이에는 연결바아(6)가 설치되어 각각의 볼조인트(2,5)들을 지점으로 미러하우징(4)과 연결바아(6)의 각도 조절이 자유롭게 이루어진다.The present invention provides a mirror base (1) fixed to a vehicle body or windshield glass, a ball joint (2) formed on the mirror base (1), and a mirror surface (3) inserted into the ball joint (2) and whose angle can be adjusted. In the vehicle room mirror comprising a mirror housing (4) provided, a connection bar (6) is provided between the ball joint (2) of the mirror base (1) and the ball joint (5) of the mirror housing (4) Angle adjustment of the mirror housing 4 and the connecting bar 6 to the ball joint (2, 5) point is made freely.

즉 본 발명은 중공형태의 연결바아(6)가 미러베이스(1)의 볼조인트(2)와 미러하우징(4)의 볼조인트(5)사이에 개재되어 있으며, 상기 미러베이스(1)의 볼조인트(2)를 지점으로 이 연결바아(6)의 회전이 자유롭고, 상기 연결바아(6)의 타단에 끼워진 미러하우징(4)의 볼조인트(5)를 매개로 이 경면(3)을 가진 미러하우징(4)의 각도 조절도 자유롭게 이루어진다That is, in the present invention, the hollow connection bar 6 is interposed between the ball joint 2 of the mirror base 1 and the ball joint 5 of the mirror housing 4, and the ball of the mirror base 1 A mirror having this mirror surface (3) via the ball joint (5) of the mirror housing (4) fitted to the other end of the connecting bar (6) freely rotatable with the joint (2) as a point. The angle of the housing 4 can also be adjusted freely.

따라서 상기 미러하우징(4)의 경면(3)이 차량내에서 위치할 수 있는 공간을 배가 시켜 주기때문에 운전자는 후방의시계 사각지대를 최대한으로 줄일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 다양한 운전자의 체격에 맞추어 적절하게 룸미러를 조절할 수 있다.Therefore, since the mirror surface 3 of the mirror housing 4 doubles the space that can be located in the vehicle, the driver can not only reduce the rear blind spot as much as possible, but also appropriately fit various physiques of the driver. You can adjust the room mirror.

한편, 본 발명의 룸미러는 상기 볼조인트(2,5)들을 지점으로 상하좌우 각도조절이 용이하며, 이 미러하우징(4)의 회전각도의 조절양은 이 볼조인트(2,5)들의 회전각과 연결바아(6)의 길이에 따라 결정된다.On the other hand, the room mirror of the present invention is easy to adjust the up, down, left and right angle to the ball joint (2, 5) point, the amount of adjustment of the rotation angle of the mirror housing (4) and the angle of rotation of the ball joint (2, 5) It depends on the length of the connecting bar 6.

상기와 같이 본 발명은 운전자의 후방시계확보가 보다 확대되면서 조절이 용이함에 따라 상품성의 가치를 향상시킬 수 있다.As described above, the present invention may improve the value of the merchandise as the driver's rear clock is secured more and more easily adjusted.
