ABSTRACT:
A raindrop and dust free vision for outside rear view car mirror is made by a mirror frame with 5 modifications. (1) The upper edge of the mirror frame protruding out about 3 cm over the mirror surface. (2) A lengthened streamlined body (giving it a larger space behind the mirror glass to enclose a wind-guiding tunnel). (3) An upward angled, tapered, and bifurcated wind-guiding tunnel inside the streamlined body. (4) Two long and narrow openings at the ends of this tunnel. (5) A rectangular hole in the middle portion of the bottom or inferior border of the mirror frame wherein an U-shaped wind-guiding panel (either fixed or adjustable) contiguous with the above-mentioned wind-guiding tunnel. The first modification makes the upper edge of the mirror frame have the function similar to the eaves of a roof to prevent raindrops from building up too much and too easily on the mirror surface. The other four modifications are designed to concentrate and guide the air current to blow away the raindrops both on the mirror surface and on the adjacent side window when the car is running.
