  • Patent number: 11981263
    Abstract: The present invention includes a stationary member, a movable member, a holding member, and a driving member. The stationary member has a stationary-side spherical surface. The movable member has a movable-side spherical surface. The stationary-side spherical surface and the movable-side spherical surface together forms a gap. The stationary-side spherical surface and the movable-side spherical surface are interposed with a sealant, which seals the gap. Consequently, the present invention allows smooth adjustment of an angle of a mirror surface, and prevention of water penetrating inside.

  • Patent number: 11702008
    Abstract: A vehicle outer mirror device includes a housing, a mirror main body, a mirror drive unit, and an imaging unit. The housing is attached to a door of a vehicle and includes an opening facing rear of the vehicle. The mirror main body is disposed in the opening of the housing and has a light reflection region reflecting light entering from outside of the housing and a light transmission region capable of transmitting the light to inside of the housing. The mirror drive unit is disposed inside the housing and adjusts an orientation of the mirror main body. The imaging unit is fixed inside the housing, images the rear of the vehicle through the light transmission region, and is disposed in a state in which an imaging optical axis is inclined toward the outside of the vehicle with respect to a reflection optical axis of the light reflection region.

  • Patent number: 11691563
    Abstract: To provide a light-emitting unit for a door mirror capable of improving a stability of LED's position and connectivity, while reducing a breakage possibility of the LED due to heat. The light-emitting unit for a door mirror is characterized in that it includes a rigid first substrate part having a connector part to receive a signal, and mounts a control unit thereon to cause an LED to emit light based on the signal; a rigid second substrate part provided separately from the first substrate part and mounts the LED thereon; and a connection part connecting the first substrate part to the second substrate part and having a circuit to cause a current signal transmitted from a first substrate part side to reach the LED's side, and the connection part has lower heat transfer rate than heat dissipation rate of the second substrate part.
