20190193241 · 2019-06-27 ·

A wheel shape follow-up burr brushing device is composed of lower guide posts, lower cylinders, a first lifting table, a first servo motor, a lower rotating table, back cavity brush adjustment cylinders, I-shaped sliding blocks, a concave block, front brush adjustment cylinders and the like. The heights of brushes are adjusted, so that the contour formed by six brushes can be consistent with the back cavity of a wheel in shape, and the brushes follow up the shape of the back cavity of the wheel; the inclination angle of the brush and the depth of the brush entering the groove can be adjusted, so that the brush follows up the shape of a spoke root groove; and the heights of the brushes can be adjusted to match the shape of the front of the wheel, so that the brushes follow up the shape of the front of the wheel.

INTERIOR REARVIEW MIRROR ASSEMBLY FOR A VEHICLE
20190168672 · 2019-06-06 ·

A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror casing and an electro-optic mirror reflective element. The front glass substrate of the reflective element has a planar first surface, a planar second surface and a periphery surface extending therebetween. The mirror casing includes a central mounting element and two spaced apart attachment surfaces. The rear glass substrate of the reflective element is adhesively attached at the attachment surfaces. The central mounting element includes a pivot element that pivotally mounts at a mounting structure. A central cavity exists between the central mounting element and the rear glass substrate. The mirror assembly includes a curved outer surface that provides a rounded transition between the planar first surface of the front glass substrate and a less-curved outer surface of a side all of the mirror casing. No part of the mirror casing encroaches onto the planar first surface of the front glass substrate.

Method of making a mirror substrate for an interior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle

A method of making a mirror substrate for a vehicular mirror assembly includes providing a glass substrate and fixturing the glass substrate at a fixture to support the glass substrate. A rotatable grinding wheel is presented to the front perimeter portion of the glass substrate and the front perimeter portion of the glass substrate is ground to establish a ground rounded surface about and around the periphery of the glass substrate. After grinding the front perimeter portion of the glass substrate to establish the ground rounded surface, a rotatable polishing wheel is presented to the ground rounded surface and the ground rounded surface is polished to establish a polished rounded surface about and around the periphery of the glass substrate. The polished rounded surface provides a smooth transition between the front surface of the glass substrate and a rear portion of the circumferential perimeter edge of the glass substrate.

A vehicular frameless interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head and a mounting portion. The mirror head includes a mirror reflective element and a mirror casing. The mirror reflective element includes a glass substrate having a planar front side and a planar rear side. No portion of the mirror casing overlaps the planar front side of the glass substrate of the mirror reflective element. A camera is disposed within the mirror casing behind the mirror reflective element. With the mounting portion of the mirror assembly mounted at an in-cabin side of a windshield of a vehicle, the camera views a driver of the vehicle, and when the mirror head is moved by the driver to adjust a rearward view of the driver, the camera moves in tandem with movement of the mirror head. The camera is part of a driver monitoring system of the vehicle.
