ABSTRACT:
A safety mirror support comprises a housing which presents the edges of the mirror area with an abutment to prevent the contact of the occupant's head to the mirror. In case contact occurs, elastic elements are placed behind the mirror for absorbing the energy of the impact and then releasing that energy once the impact force has disappeared. The elastic elements could include a spring made from metal of from plastic material. There is also a back plate placed between the elastic elements and the mirror, for reinforcing the mirror and for spreading the impact forces across the surface of the mirror.
