Patent number: 10802272Abstract: A vehicular display apparatus includes a display device, a magnifying mirror, and a turning back mirror. The display device emits display light corresponding to a display image to be visually recognized by a driver on a vehicle. The magnifying mirror reflects the display light to project the display image on a windshield of the vehicle. The turning back mirror is disposed on an optical path between the display device and the magnifying mirror and has a concave reflecting surface that reflects the display light. The magnifying mirror has the magnifying power that is set higher than that of the turning back mirror.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2018Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventor: Kunimitsu Aoki

Publication number: 20200225472Abstract: A vehicle display device includes: an emitting part that is mounted in a vehicle and emits a display light; a housing that accommodates the emitting part in an inner accommodation space; and a last mirror that reflects the display light emitted from the emitting part toward a windshield provided in a front of the vehicle in a vehicle front-back direction and causes the windshield to reflect the display light toward a presumed eye point. The windshield has a rising angle on a side of the eye point relative to a horizontal direction of equal to or greater than 60° and equal to or less than 90°. The last mirror is provided outside the accommodation space as a whole, and is located between the windshield and the eye point EP in the vehicle front-back direction and opposed to the windshield.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2020Publication date: July 16, 2020Inventor: Kunimitsu Aoki
