359873000 | With rotary to linear motion converting mirror adjustment | 9 |
20080310040 | Mirror Angle Adjusting Device - A mirror angle adjusting device can stably hold a pivot plate (H), while a contact part between the pivot plate (H) and an actuator (A) smoothly slides for a long period of time. The mirror angle adjusting device includes the pivot plate (H) attached to a back side of a mirror (M), and the actuator (A) for holding the pivot plate (H). In the mirror angle adjusting device, grooves ( | 12-18-2008 |
20110194202 | VEHICLE MIRROR APPARATUS - A vehicle mirror apparatus comprising a mirror provided at a vehicle; a pivoting member holding the mirror; a sliding part provided at the pivoting member; a holding member pivotably holding the pivoting member, whereby an angle of a mirror surface of the mirror is adjusted; and a pivoting surface provided at the holding member. The sliding part is made slidable on the pivoting surface while a gap is provided between an edge of the holding member at a side of the pivoting member and the pivoting member in a pivoting radial direction of the pivoting member. | 08-11-2011 |
20130208373 | MIRROR DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - Foreign matter is effectively ejected from between a sliding portion and protruding portions. In a mirror surface angle adjustment device of a vehicle door mirror device, while a mirror holder is rotated and an angle of a mirror surface of a mirror is adjusted, a sliding portion of the mirror holder slides on protruding portions of the case. The protruding portions extend to be directed toward a rotating direction of the mirror holder. Therefore, when the sliding portion slides on the protruding portions, foreign matter is easily ejected from between the sliding portion and the protruding portions to sideward of the protruding portions, and foreign matter can be effectively ejected from between the sliding portion and the protruding portions. Therefore, the sliding portion can slide smoothly against the protruding portions, and the rotating of the mirror holder can be made stable. | 08-15-2013 |
20150116855 | MANUAL MIRROR - A manual mirror, capable of obtaining optimum clamp force on a mirror support stay while reducing the number of components and simplifying the structure of the mirror, includes a mirror body and mounting section for attaching the mirror body to the mirror support stay. The mounting section is constructed mainly of a pair of brackets projecting from and integrally formed with a side of mirror housing and a U-shaped clamp member and a fastener, and the mirror housing being integrally formed with, on another side, projection fitting between a pair of arms of the U-shaped clamp member for restricting a displacement of arms which come close to each other while allowing a displacement which reduces clamp width of a holding part of the U-shaped clamp member when the fastener is tightened. | 04-30-2015 |
359874000 | With rotation of mirror about perpendicular axes | 5 |
20090015956 | Method and Apparatus for Coupling a Microelectromechanical System Scanner Mirror to a Frame - Formation of a biaxial microelectromechanical system (MEMS) scanner can comprise, at least in part, providing a frame ( | 01-15-2009 |
20090027790 | NEWTONIAN TELESCOPE SECONDARY MIRROR MOUNT AND ADJUSTMENT METHOD - A Newtonian telescope secondary mirror mount which includes means for attaching a Newtonian telescope secondary mirror to the secondary mirror mount. The attachment means will define a secondary mirror plane. The mount also includes first and second means for adjusting the angular alignment of the secondary mirror plane. The first adjustment means defines a first adjustment axis and the second adjustment means defines a second adjustment axis. In all embodiments both the first and second axes of angular orientation adjustment are substantially parallel to the secondary mirror plane. Methods of adjusting the angular alignment of a Newtonian telescope secondary mirror are also disclosed. | 01-29-2009 |
20120075735 | EXTERIOR REAR VIEW MIRROR - An exterior mirror for mounting on a vehicle with a mirror base and a mirror head attached to the mirror base is suggested, whereby the mirroring element is rigidly connected to the housing of the mirror head. The mirror head and mirror base are rotatably connected to one another by means of a ball joint. The adjustment of the mirroring element is done by two bars, of which the length can be adjusted by actuators, which bars are arranged between the mirror head and mirror base. | 03-29-2012 |
20160054542 | MIRROR DRIVING DEVICE - A mirror driving device has a simple configuration and is capable of accelerating and decelerating a mirror during a mirror down operation. The mirror driving device includes a mirror, a mirror box attached to be movable between a first position where the mirror is located in an optical path and a second position where the mirror is retracted from the optical path, a mirror driving member rotatably attached to the mirror box and configured to drive the mirror, and a link member rotatably attached to the mirror driving member. A cam portion is formed in the mirror box. The link member includes a follower portion configured to follow with the cam portion. | 02-25-2016 |
20160068106 | Movement Mechanism and Wing Mirror for a Vehicle Provided with Such a Movement Mechanism - A movement mechanism comprising a substantially spherical holder and a substantially bowl-shaped ring, which are rotatable relative to each other about a first axis and a second axis enclosing an angle of approximately 90° to the first axis. Driving means are provided for enabling movement of the holder relative to the ring and comprise a first non-straight driving rod bearing-mounted in the holder, as well as means for activating the driving rod and a second non-straight driving rod bearing-mounted in the holder, as well as means for activating the driving rod. The first driving rod and the second driving rod are rotatable about a third and a fourth axis, respectively, which third and fourth axes are mutually parallel and lie in a plane equal or parallel to the top face of the holder and which third and fourth axes are parallel to or coincide with the first axis. | 03-10-2016 |
