Rear vision mirror with cold light direction signal indicator
First Claim
1. A combined rear vision mirror and direction signal apparatus comprising:
- (a) a rear vision mirror assembly having a reflector body disposed at a first of opposed first and second sides thereof;
(b) a cold light casing coupled to said second side of said rear vision mirror assembly, said cold light casing having an end surface portion and a side surface portion extending transversely therefrom, said cold light casing having formed therein a through hole extending through at least a portion of both said end and side surface portions;
(c) a transparent piece engaging said through hole of said cold light casing to extend thereacross;
(d) a transparent block having a triangular prismatic contour disposed at said side surface portion of said cold light casing;
(e) a cold light direction signal indicator disposed between said transparent piece and said rear vision mirror assembly; and
, (f) a power source and control device electrically coupled to said cold light direction signal indicator for energizing said cold light direction signal indicator in controlled manner.

Abstract
A rear vision mirror with a cold light direction indicator includes a rear vision mirror, a cold light direction indicator and a protecting cover. The rear vision mirror is a case with a reflector and is firmly secured to a proper position on a car. The cold light direction indicator is a case with a reflector, and is firmly secured to a surface of the case of the rear vision mirror, and is electrically connected to a power source and control device. The protecting cover covers on a surface of the case of the rear vision mirror, and the cold light direction indicator therewithin can expose out of the cover from a via hole. Therefore, an action of the cold light direction indicator can be viewed in a horizontal direction by drivers at front, lateral, or lateral rear sides, light from the cold light direction indicator is soft and almost no power is consumed. No flash light affecting human eyes emits.
