Abstract

PURPOSE: To precisely perform reception by placing a receiver on a mirror projecting to the outside of a vehicle body, the receiver receiving signals from a transmitter installed outside the vehicle body, for controlling an automobile control device and auxiliary systems. CONSTITUTION: A mirror 1 has an outside part 3 adjustably supported on a root part 4 secured to a vehicle body 2. In this case, a small opening 5 is formed in the root part 4, and an infrared receiver 6 is placed inside the opening 5. The infrared receiver 6 is connected to, e.g., a theft alarm system 9 via an amplifier 7 and a relay 8. A transmitter 10 transmitting predetermined signals to the infrared receiver 6 is installed outside the vehicle. Thus reception is precisely performed using the mirror 1 projecting to the outside of the vehicle body, i.e., a rear-view mirror, so that remote control for the vehicle theft alarm system 9 or the like is accurately performed.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 〔産業上の利用分野〕 本発明は、自動車用アウトサイドミラーに関する。[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to an outside mirror for an automobile.

An automobile inside mirror equipped with a light-sensing battery is known. The light-sensing cell is operatively connected to a mirror adjustment mechanism such that the inside mirror is swung to a dimmed position when the light-sensor receives the beam of the brightened headlight.

The problem underlying the present invention is that in addition to the original function of outside mirrors, which is to provide visibility to the rear, outside mirrors are located on the outside of the car, and other important functions for the car are also possible. The objective is to form the outside mirror so that it exhibits the following.

This problem was solved based on the present invention, in which a receiver was attached to the outside mirror attached to the outside of the outer skin of the car, and this receiver transmitted wirelessly from the outside of the car via a transmitter. The solution is to respond to signals and serve to control operating devices or auxiliary devices of the motor vehicle.

Advantageously, an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver are provided. This is because this infrared transmitter/receiver has a relatively simple structure and can be housed within the outer panel of the outside mirror without failure. In this case, the existing electrical connection lines of many outside mirrors are used. This connection line can thus also be used to drive the receiver.

Furthermore, within the scope of the invention, if left and right mirrors are present, the receiver of one mirror is directed forward and the receiver of the other mirror is directed rearward, wholly or primarily in this direction. It can be made to work.

更に、受信器がミラーケースの自動車側の部分(ミラー
