Title:
RAIN SENSOR FIXATION STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2023023906
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To simplify work for fixing a rain sensor to an inner surface of a wind shield while preventing a load for pushing a wind shield in a vertical direction from exceeding a magnitude required for preventing formation of an air layer between the rain sensor and the wind shield.SOLUTION: A rain sensor fixation structure 10 for fixing a rain sensor 1 to an inner surface of a wind shield 2 includes an elastic contact part 3 which is arranged between the rain sensor 1 and the inner surface of the wind shield 2, and transmits light, a fixation frame 4 which is fixed to the inner surface of the wind shield 2 so as to surround the periphery of the elastic contact plate 3, and a slide frame 6 which is engaged with the fixation frame 4 so as to be slidable in a direction along the inner surface of the wind shield 2, and holds the rain sensor 2 to the fixation frame 4, wherein the slide frame 6 is provided with a spring 63 for acting elastic force in a direction of pushing the rain sensor 1 toward the wind shield 2 by sliding the slide frame 6 at a predetermined position.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
