Rear-view mirror with a reflected combined signal and optics
First Claim
1. Vehicle rear-view side mirror which comprises a housing (D) with a first opening with at least one prisms rear-viewing element, camera, or mirror and that includes in a second opening a light signals emitter assembly equipped with a cover with at least one transparent, translucent or in part colorless or tinted surface (1), one interior body (10) or support, one interior light source and/or one reflector (12), that emits at least one signal towards the front, side, and rear of the rear-view mirror and vehicle with respect to the driving direction, projecting said emitter assembly light rearwards (K1) through a zone (2) of said surface (1) of said cover located at the farthest side end from the vehicle'"'"'s bodywork or vertex (204), said rear-view mirror being characterized in that said light signals emitter assembly includes optical bodies (150) at least partially of a diamond shape arranged around an optical axis with at least one light input and at least one light output, said optical bodies (150) being transparent and light directors, positioned between the emitters (30) of said light source and the surface (1) of said cover and with at least one light input and said optical bodies (150) include at least one prism, and/or one lens and/or one etched surface and have different forms and sections, producing at least a concentrator and/or diffuser and/or multiplier effect, or a combination thereof.

Abstract
The invention relates to a rear-view mirror for vehicles, which consists of compatible, combinable and exchangeable modules such as: (A) and (B), or integrated (A+B), functional, signal, lighting and sensor modules, and structural (C), (D) and (E) modules; cover-housing, body-housing and support which may include functional modules. (A), (B) and (A+B) fulfill their function even if the rear-view mirror is folded. They use a multifocal light source of LED'"'"'s inserted into a flexible and orientable circuit and/or a mixed rigid-flexible circuit-combining LED'"'"'s+bulbs and other lighting, elements, with variable optical and reflective means enabling more than one signal from one same transparent surface with direct light output, indirect-reflected light output and/or through intermediate optical light guides depending on the directions required in the front, the side, the back and the lateral ground for different commands, applications and safety signals.
