EXTENDABLE MIRROR WITH DETENT

摘要

A mirror assembly (10) for use on an automotive vehicle comprises a support base (12) for fixedly mounting the mirror assembly (10) to the vehicle. The mirror assembly further includes an upper (22) and lower support arm (24), each extending longitudinally between a first end (26) and a second end (28) . A collar (30) having an upper chamber and a lower chamber is fixedly secured to the first ends (26) of the support arms and pivotally coupled to the support base (12) for pivoting the support arms about a generally vertical axis between an operative position extending laterally from the vehicle and a folded position pivoted adjacent and generally parallel to the vehicle. A housing (40) is slidably coupled to the second ends (28) of the support arms and slidable therealong between a retracted position adjacent the first ends and an extended position adjacent the second ends.
