Claims9
A rear view mirror, comprising a housing an motor actuator and a reflective element, wherein the reflective element is a plastic material substrate with a first surface coated with at least a reflective layer and a second surface with at least a set of molded fixing elements to be fixed at the motor actuator, said set of molded fixing elements includes molded contact noses for heater contacts.
A rear view mirror, comprising a housing an motor actuator and a reflective element, wherein the reflective element is a plastic material substrate with a first surface coated with at least a reflective layer and a second surface with at least a set of molded fixing elements to be fixed at the motor actuator, wherein the second surface is coated with a heating resistive alloy of Ti—Al or Ni—Ti, with a plurality of spaced apart electrodes attached to the heating resistive layer, said electrodes being adapted to induce a current through the heating resistive layer between, wherein the electrodes are located on a same side of the substrate and are disposed in the immediate vicinity of each other.
A rear view mirror, comprising a housing an motor actuator and a reflective element, wherein the reflective element is a plastic material substrate with a first surface coated with at least a reflective layer and a second surface with at least a set of molded fixing elements to be fixed at the motor actuator, wherein the second surface is coated with a heating resistive alloy of Ti—Al or Ni—Ti, characterized in that it comprises two electrodes provided in the form of strips of electrically conducting material, for example copper-based, and the heating resistive layer is formed of a metal alloy, the electrodes being electrically insulated from the heating resistive layer by an insulating mean.
