Abstract: An on-vehicle multidirectional visual-recognition device includes a first visual-recognition mechanism including a front door window and a door mirror of a door mirror mechanism. A second visual-recognition mechanism includes a first mirror provided in a door-mirror housing of the door mirror mechanism so as to show a range from a side of a vehicle including an area below the door mirror mechanism to a front side of the vehicle. A sub window transmits light reflected by the first mirror and extends continuously from the front door window toward the front side of the vehicle via a frame. A second mirror reflects the light transmitted through the sub window toward a vehicle occupant. Brightness of the light to be received by the vehicle occupant is set substantially equal to brightness of the light at the first visual-recognition mechanism.

Abstract: Provided is a device for viewing a front-lateral area of a vehicle. A front-lateral viewing device (16) comprises a mirror body (41) of a door mirror (21), a mirror housing (42), a first reflection mirror (22) which is provided in the mirror (42) and which reflects a desired range from a front area to a lateral area with respect to a side portion (55) of a vehicle body, and a second reflection mirror (23) which reflects light from the first reflection mirror (22) toward a vehicle occupant. The mirror housing (42) has a recess (111) where a front surface (108) is inwardly recessed. The first reflection mirror (22) is provided in the recess (111). A blinker (14) is provided at a position spaced from an outer end (95) of the first reflection mirror (22) at a predetermined distance.

Abstract: An apparatus for viewing an oblique forward area of a vehicle whereby light incident from outside a passenger compartment is prevented from reflecting. The apparatus includes a sub-window pane supported by a front pillar and a sub-pillar, a mirror housing of a door mirror for displaying a rear of the vehicle, and a first reflective mirror for displaying an area in front and to one side of the vehicle. The first reflective mirror is provided to the mirror housing. The apparatus also includes a second reflective mirror for reflecting the light reflected by the first reflective mirror toward a driver. The sub-window pane is disposed further toward the outside in a vehicle widthwise direction than a line passing over cross-sectional vehicle-widthwise direction centers of the front pillar and the sub-pillar. An outside edge of the second reflective mirror is positioned in the vicinity of the sub-window pane.

Abstract: A rear speaker unit for a motor vehicle is disposed in an elongate space such as a space which is defined between one of opposite sides of a rear seat and a vehicle body side panel. The speaker unit is made up of a tubular and substantially cylindrical speaker box and a speaker which is supported by the front end of the speaker box. The speaker box is elongate in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body and has a front end portion which is so bent as to face the center of a passenger compartment of the vehicle. Hence, the speaker mounted on the front end of the speaker box also faces the center of the passenger compartment.

Abstract: A seat belt anchoring mechanism for a car including a passenger room, a seat belt and a pillar portion covered with a garnish at the room interior side. A rotatable anchor plate supporting the shoulder harness portion of the seat belt arranged on the pillar portion with a cover and an operation lever rotatable together. A guide rail is provided at the room exterior side of the garnish and secured to the pillar portion, the guide rail having a plurality of engagement slots arranged in the longitudinal direction and a locking member is resiliently biased to be engaged with any of the engagement portions with a mobile member carrying the locking member and connected with the anchor plate so as to be movable therewith along the guide rail. An actuation mechanism causes movement of the locking member to effect the disengagement from the engagement with one of the engagement portions in accordance with the operation of the operation lever.
