Abstract: An exterior rear view mirror, for a motor vehicle, with an exterior rear view mirror housing formed in at least two parts, which comprises an opening for a mirror glass, and houses at least one base bracket, on which the mirror glass is adjustably arranged. The exterior rear view mirror housing consists at least of a first housing part and a second housing part, which are connected to both each other as well as to the base bracket, in each case. Locking connections are provided at least between the first housing part and the second housing part, as well as between the housing parts and the base bracket, in each case.

Abstract: A mirror base cover for an exterior rear view mirror assembly of a motor vehicle is described, which is provided with an opening for a part on the mirror base side of an articulated connection of a base bracket, which is preferably housed in an exterior rear view mirror housing, to a mirror base, which is covered by the mirror base cover. The opening has a larger design than is necessary for the part on the mirror base side of the articulated connection. A section of the opening remaining between the edge of the opening and the part on the mirror base side of the articulated connection is closed by a mirror base cap assembly. The mirror base cap assembly consists of a mirror base cap, only partly covering the remaining section of the opening, and a seal, moulded onto the mirror base cap, overlapping a gap remaining between the mirror base cap and the edge of the opening.

Abstract: A seal of a part of an exterior rear view mirror assembly relative to a body part of a motor vehicle is described, which seal is provided for covering at least one section of a surface of a mirror base and/or a mirror base cover, which takes its bearing on the bodywork side. The seal is securely connected to the mirror base and/or mirror base cover by means of at least one connecting link. The at least one connecting link forms a hinge-like articulated connection. The hinge-like articulated connection includes at least one hinge joint axis running adjacently to the at least one surface, which takes its bearing on the bodywork side. The seal can preferably be folded about the at least one hinge-joint axis onto the section, which is at least to be covered, of the at least one surface, which takes its bearing on the bodywork side.

Abstract: An exterior rear view mirror housing, which consists of at least a first housing part and a second housing part, and which comprises an opening on its rear side for a mirror glass, whereby the second housing part contains the walls surrounding the opening. The first housing part and at least one of the walls of the second housing part surrounding the opening comprise inner surfaces which face each other oppositely. On at least one of the inner surfaces which face each other oppositely, at least one ridge is arranged, which runs parallel to the rear side and extends from the one inner surface up to a remaining clearance to the opposing inner surface.

Abstract: An exterior rear view mirror of a motor vehicle, which comprises an exterior rear view mirror housing and at least one electrical connection to at least one electrical component at least partly housed in the inside of the exterior rear view mirror housing. The electrical connection comprises at least one connection cable and at least one plug connection. The plug connection comprises a first plug part connected to the electrical component at least by means of one section of the at least one connection cable, and a second plug part assigned to the first plug part, fixed in the exterior rear view mirror housing.

Abstract: An exterior rear view mirror for a motor vehicle, which exterior rear view mirror consists of at least two components which are connected to each other. At least one connection between the components includes at least one connecting arrangement, which is suitable for transfer of both transverse forces and compression forces and tractive forces, as well as transfer of moments from a first component to a second component. The connecting arrangement comprises a spring arranged on the first component, with inclined flanks, diverging at least in sections, seen from the first component, and a receiving groove, which is assigned to the spring, provided on the second component. The spring engages in the receiving groove. The spring and the receiving groove comprise a complementary, positive interlocking cross-section, at least in sections, so that the inclined flanks and the receiving groove form a rearward engagement normal to the receiving groove.

Abstract: The subject is an exterior rear view mirror with at least one base support and a carrier plate holding the mirror glass, adjustably arranged in relation to the base support. At least one friction bearing is provided between the carrier plate and the base support, which includes at least one friction spring arranged on the carrier plate, projecting in the direction of the base support, with at least one first guide support and at least one second guide support assigned to the base support. The first and second guide surfaces come into contact with each other. A slot, arranged on the base support, assigned to the friction spring, comprises a receiving opening, into which the friction spring is inserted. The receiving opening is bordered by at least one wall, which forms at least a second guide surface of the friction bearing.

Abstract: A seal of a part of an exterior rear view mirror assembly relative to a body part of a motor vehicle is described, which seal is provided for covering at least one section of a surface of a mirror base and/or a mirror base cover, which takes its bearing on the bodywork side. The seal is securely connected to the mirror base and/or mirror base cover by means of at least one connecting link. The at least one connecting link forms a hinge-like articulated connection. The hinge-like articulated connection includes at least one hinge joint axis running adjacently to the at least one surface, which takes its bearing on the bodywork side. The seal can preferably be folded about the at least one hinge-joint axis onto the section, which is at least to be covered, of the at least one surface, which takes its bearing on the bodywork side.
