The upper ball head 100 includes an upper ball head main body 102. The ball head 100 is clamped to the mirror body 200 by the upper ball body 102; the upper ball body 102 is provided with a through hole 101 through which the wire harness 500 passes.

The bracket system has the advantages of simple structure, convenient processing and manufacture, and low manufacturing cost. Meanwhile, when the bracket system is applied to the rear view mirror of the automobile, the wire harness 500 protrudes from the upper ball main body 102, thereby solving the problem of the outlet and at the same time, Make the interior rearview mirror more beautiful.

In the prior art, the rear view mirror of the automobile mainly includes an upper cover assembly, a lower cover, a bracket, and the like. The upper cover assembly generally includes an upper cover, a glass, a display screen, a button, a main PCB, a lamp cover, a PCB bracket, a button PCB, and the like, and is installed. When the upper cover assembly is engaged with the lower cover, the inner rear view mirror main body 200 is formed, and the inner rear view mirror main body 200 is mounted on the automobile through the bracket. When the wire harness 500 is installed in the prior art, the beginning end of the wire harness 500 is connected to the PVB, and the other end of the wire harness 500 protrudes from the mounting hole on the lower cover, that is, a hole needs to be provided in the lower cover, which is difficult to process and affects. The beauty of the interior rearview mirror. In this embodiment, the bracket system includes an upper ball head 100 having a body connecting the upper ball head 100 of the inner mirror body 200. The body of the upper ball head 100 is provided with a through hole 101, and the wire harness 500 After the PCB is connected, it protrudes from the through hole 101, and it is not necessary to process the mounting hole on the rear case, which increases the aesthetic appearance of the inner rear view mirror.

In the specific installation, the inner rear view mirror main body 200 includes an upper cover assembly and a lower cover, and the upper cover assembly and the lower cover are fastened to each other. Meanwhile, the lower cover is screwed with a clamping ball seat by a fastening screw, and the upper ball head 100 The body is fastened on the ball holder, so that the upper ball head 100 is conveniently installed, and the upper ball head 100 can be rotated relative to the ball holder, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of the inner mirror main body 200, and is convenient to use.

Further, in order to facilitate mounting the inner mirror main body 200 on the automobile, in a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the novel inner rear view mirror bracket system further includes a replaceable bracket 400, and the replaceable bracket 400 and the The upper ball head 100 is detachably connected, and the replaceable bracket 400 is fixed at On the car.

The through hole 101 is convenient for processing. In order to facilitate the passage of the wire harness 500, the distance of the wire harness 500 in the upper ball head main body 102 should be shortened as much as possible. Meanwhile, in order to facilitate the wire harness 500, the center line of the through hole 101 and the upper ball are used. The center line of the head 100 is disposed at an angle. When the wire harness 500 passes through the upper ball, it is not required to bend a certain angle, the length of the wire harness 500 is shortened, and the cost is saved; the end of the wire harness 500 is easily connected to the power supply of the automobile. .

In the actual processing, the position of the through hole 101 and the diameter of the through hole 101 can be changed as needed, and the processing is flexible and can meet the needs of different users. For example, when the diameter of the wire harness 500 is large, the diameter of the through hole 101 is processed to facilitate the passage of the wire harness 500; and when the diameter of the wire harness 500 is small, the diameter of the through hole 101 is smaller. In order to facilitate the passage of the wire harness 500, the diameter of the through hole 101 should be slightly larger than the diameter of the wire harness 500.

When the inner rearview mirror is used, the angle of the inner rearview mirror needs to be adjusted as needed, so that the driver can see the road condition more safely. Therefore, as a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the upper ball body 102 further has a slope 202, and the slope 202 is located at an end of the upper ball body 102 adjacent to the mirror body 200; the through hole 101 extends To the slope 202. That is, when the upper ball head 100 is mounted on the ball seat of the inner mirror through the upper ball body 102, the upper ball body 102 is clamped in the ball seat, and when the upper ball body 102 is rotated relative to the ball seat, Since the upper ball main body 102 is provided with the inclined surface 202, the friction between the wire harness 500 and the inner wall of the ball seat is reduced, and the movable space of the wire harness 500 is increased. In the meantime, the rotation of the upper ball body 102 is facilitated, which increases the flexibility of the inner rear view mirror, which makes the inner rear view mirror operation more convenient.

In a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the upper ball head 100 further includes a mounting portion 103 that connects the upper ball body 102, the mounting portion 103 has a recessed portion, and the recessed direction of the recessed portion faces the upper ball a head body 102; the upper ball head 100 further includes a threaded hole 104, the threaded hole 104 being located in the recessed portion, the threaded hole 104 extending in a direction of a center line of the upper ball head body 102, and The centerline of the threaded hole 104 is collinear with the centerline of the upper ball head body 102. The mounting portion 103 has a simple structure and can be processed according to different conditions, and is processed into a recessed portion. The upper ball head 100 and the replaceable bracket 400 are connected by plugging, and the recessed portion has a positioning function, and the upper ball head 100 is The installation position is more precise and the installation error is small. At the same time, the upper ball head 100 is further provided with a threaded hole 104, and a hole matching the threaded hole 104 is disposed on the replaceable bracket 400, and the upper ball head 100 is screwed with the replaceable bracket 400 by using a screw. The firmness of the connection between the upper ball head 100 and the replaceable bracket 400 is further ensured.

In a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, the recess has four side walls 201, and the four side walls 201 are divided into two groups, and each set of the side walls 201 is oppositely disposed, and the adjacent side walls 201 are connected. . The structure of the depressed portion is simple and easy to process.

In an alternative embodiment of the above embodiment, at least one of the side walls 201 is inclined, that is, the sidewall 201 of the recess is disposed as a slope when actually processed, and correspondingly, the replaceable bracket 400 is disposed The inclined surface matching the inclined surface of the concave portion is more closely matched when the inclined surface is mounted, and the two inclined surfaces have a mutual abutting force, and the upper ball 100 is screwed with the replaceable bracket 400 by screws, and the screw is The locking effect is better, the installation is more firm and reliable, and it is not easy to loose and safe to use during use.

In another alternative of the above embodiment, the two sets of the side walls 201 are respectively inclined, and the inclination angle between the side wall 201 and the bottom wall is an obtuse angle. The structure of the depressed portion is processed according to the actual situation. In order to save the processing steps and reduce the processing difficulty, the shape of the depressed portion is a trapezoidal table structure, and correspondingly, the connection position of the replaceable bracket 400 is processed into a trapezoidal table structure having four inclined faces. When installed, the connection between the upper ball head 100 and the replaceable bracket 400 is stronger, and the use is safer and more reliable.
