ABSTRACT:
An exterior mirror for a motor vehicle has a base member adapted to be mounted on a vehicle body, a housing containing a reflective member and having an end face to confront the base member with a peripheral edge serving as an abutment edge which engages the base member for relative pivotal movement. A link is pivotally connected at one end to the base member and a tension spring is connected between the link and an attachment point in the interior of the housing to urge the abutment edge on the housing into abutment with the base member. The end of the link opposite to the end connected to the base member is pivotally connected to the housing and the spring is connected to an intermediate point on the link. The base member and housing are shaped to conceal the abutment edge of the housing when said peripheral edge is in engagement with the base member around its entire periphery. The base member has a cam surface shaped to engage the abutment edge on one side of the housing, thereby to displace the housing away from the base member as soon as pivotal movement commences in a predetermined direction.
