Do you know the Type of Rear View Mirror?

Classification by adjustment method of rearview mirror

It can be divided into two types: outside adjustment and inside adjustment.

1. Outside car adjustment This method is to adjust the angle of view by directly adjusting the position of the frame or the mirror in the parking state. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to complete it at one time. The seat is extended out of the window for adjustment by hand, which is very inconvenient to adjust under driving and rainy conditions. Generally, large cars, trucks and low-grade passenger cars use outside adjustment to reduce costs.

2. In-car adjustment This method can provide a more convenient condition for the driver to adjust the rear-view mirror and observe the rear vision during driving. Most of the mid-range and high-end cars adopt in-car adjustment. This method is divided into two types: manual adjustment (wire rope drive adjustment or handle adjustment) and electric adjustment.

Because the position of the rearview mirror is directly related to whether the driver can observe the situation behind the car, it is more difficult for the driver to adjust its position, especially the rearview mirror on the side of the front passenger door. Therefore, the rearview mirrors of modern automobiles are basically electric and operated by electrical control systems.
