Abstract
A mirror mount assembly including a mirror mount adapted to hold a mirror, a rotatable body in the mirror mount that can rotate relative to the mirror mount, a post that extends into the mirror round and is rotatable relative to the rotatable body and the mirror mount, a threaded body threadingly engaged with the post that compresses a plate against the rotatable body to apply an adjustable compression force that resists rotation of the post relative to the rotatable body, and a second plate that can be compressed against the rotatable body by a plurality of fasteners to apply an adjustable compression force that resist rotation of the rotatable body relative to the mirror mount.
Claims20
A mirror mount assembly for a motor vehicle, the mirror mount assembly comprising:
- a mirror mount that defines a mount cavity and a surface adapted to receive a mirror;
- a post comprising a first threaded end, wherein the post is adapted to couple to the motor vehicle;
- a rotatable body that defines a body cavity;
- a first plate;
- a threaded body threadingly engaged with the first threaded end of the post, wherein tightening the post relative to the threaded body applies a first compression force that compresses the first plate against the rotatable body, wherein the first compression force is adjustable to permit selective rotation of the post relative to the rotatable body and selective retention of the post relative to the rotatable body;
- a second plate;
- a plurality of fasteners adapted to apply a second compression force to the second plate that compresses the rotatable body between the second plate and the mirror mount, wherein the second compression force is adjustable to permit selective rotation of the rotatable body and post relative to the mirror mount and selective retention of the rotatable body and post relative to the mirror mount.
