  • Patent number: 5654824
    Abstract: A portable self-cleaning mirror having a disposable housing within which is located the rotatable reflective surface. A removably attachable reusable motor is combined to provide power to rotate the reflective surface/mirror. The reflective surface is rotated beneath a wiper blade attachment bar with a wiper blade that bisects the reflective surface along a diameter. In one embodiment, the wiper blade is formed in an inverted "Y" shape so that the two branches of the "Y" contact the reflective surface and clean the surface with a leading and trailing contact motion. Additionally, the attachment bar is formed in a sinuous non-linear shape so that a more effective cleansing of the reflective surface is accomplished.
