Dual pivoted member mount for mirror

A rearview mirror assembly comprising

• a mirror unit having a mirror side and an opposite side,
• a mirror unit support disposed on the opposite side of said mirror unit,
• a first member mounted on said support for pivotal movement between limits with respect to said support about a first axis,
• said first member including a first pair of spaced arms extending from said support toward said mirror unit and forming first spaced connections with the opposite side of said mirror unit at positions spaced in opposite directions from said first axis, said first member being constructed and arranged to enable limited pivotal movement of said mirror unit with respect to said first member about a second axis disposed in generally intersecting perpendicular relation with said first axis,
• a second member mounted on said support for pivotal movement between limits with respect to said support about said second axis,
• said second member including a second pair of spaced arms extending from said support toward said mirror unit and forming second spaced connections with the opposite side of said mirror unit at positions spaced in opposite directions from said second axis, said second member being constructed and arranged to enable limited pivotal movement of said mirror unit with respect to said second member about said first axis, and
• a manually controlled mirror unit moving mechanism carried in part by said support for effecting a desired movement of said mirror unit together with a corresponding movement of either one or both of said first and second members with respect to said support in response to a remote manual movement by a user.

A rearview mirror assembly comprising

• a mirror unit having a mirror side and an opposite side,
• a mirror unit support disposed in facing relation to the opposite side of said mirror unit,
• a central connection between the opposite side of said mirror unit and said support mounting said mirror unit on said support for pivotal movement about first and second generally intersecting perpendicular axes,
• a first member mounted on said support for pivotal movement between limits with respect to said support about said first axis,
• said first member including a first pair of spaced arms extending from said support toward said mirror unit and connected with the opposite side of said mirror unit at positions spaced in opposite directions from said first axis for limited pivotal movement with respect to said mirror unit about said second axis,
• a second member mounted on said support for pivotal movement between limits with respect to said support about said second axis,
• said second member including a second pair of arms extending from said support toward said mirror unit and connected with the opposite side of said mirror unit for compound movement with respect thereto at positions spaced in opposite directions from said second axis which compound movement includes limited lateral movement with respect to said first axis and pivotal movement about an axis which is either coincident with or slightly angularly related with said first axis depending upon the position of relative lateral movement, and
• a manually controlled mechanism carried in part by said support for effecting a desired movement of said mirror unit together with a corresponding movement of either one or both of said first and second members in response to a remote manual movement by a user.
