ABSTRACT:
A remote controlled mirror system for vehicles, particularly for trucks and articulated vehicles, providing a view to the rear of the vehicle over a large area by sweeping a rear view mirror. The mirror is urged into an adjustable normal rest position whenever it is moved from that position by actuating a control mechanism adjacent the vehicle driver. The position of the mirror is under control of the driver at all times, who actuates a convenient corresponding lever arm on a hand grip. The lever arm is lockable in multiple deflected positions under ratchet control of forced movement. The system provides for rapid return of the mirror to its normal rest position whenever the lever arm is released for return to its rest position.
