A dual magnification mirror system includes two mirrors having different magnifications, e.g., 5× and 7×, each mounted in a frame fastened to an opposite end of an elongated flexible arm. Each frame is so constructed as to enable it to be interchangeably placeable, mirror face down, on a horizontal supporting surface, such as that of a table or counter top, thus locating the other mirror above the supporting surface, at viewing position which is adjustable by a user by bending the flexible arm. The system also includes a wall mounting bracket fastenable to a vertical wall surface, the mounting bracket having on a front surface thereof a pocket for downwardly insertably receiving and supporting a peripheral flange which protrudes radially outwards from each mirror frame, thus enabling each mirror to be interchangeably inserted into the pocket, and thereby locating the other mirror at a flexibly adjustable viewing position spaced outwardly from the mounting bracket. Preferably, the mounting bracket is provided with rearwardly protruding fasteners, such as suction cups, which are releasably attachable to a vertical surface of an object such as a window, shower door, cabinet or the like.

A detachable mirror designed to allow the driver of a vehicle to view the hitch ball when attempting to align the hitch ball with a trailer hitch. The invention has a stable triangular base and an adjustable mast for positioning a small mirror in the correct location.

Universal hitch mirror

An outside mirror apparatus for a coupled vehicle for improved visual confirmation of the positional relationship between the back of a coupled vehicle and the surroundings thereof. An object 9 to be detected is mounted to a frame 4F of a trailer 4 adjacent a pivotable coupling 5. A plurality of proximity sensors 8,8A,8B . . . are disposed at preset angular intervals in a frame 3F of a tractor 3 adjacent the pivotable coupling 5. These sensors 8,8A,8B . . . are arranged to correspond to the rotational orbit of the object 9. The object 9 is detected by each proximity sensor, thereby detecting an angle of bend "theta" between the tractor 3 and the trailer 4. Based on the detected result, the direction of a mirror surface 33A is able to be properly controlled.

Outside mirror apparatus for coupled vehicle

A device and method for generating images of a computer user and the surrounding area behind the user. A mirror (24) has a reflecting surface (32) and a support (22) supports the mirror adjacent to or on a computer monitor (6). The mirror is positioned relative to the computer monitor so that the reflecting surface reflects an image of an area in front of the screen display towards the eyes of the user. In this manner, the computer user can monitor the surrounding area to ensure that confidential or personal information on the computer monitor is not seen by others. In addition, the user can inspect his or her own appearance prior to or during video communication with remote users.

Image reflecting device for use with a computer monitor

A mirror assembly is provided for use in “hitching” trailers to towing vehicles. The mirror assembly can be used for conventional ball and socket couplings, fifth wheel couplings and variations thereof. The mirror assembly is magnetically attached to the trailer tongue so it can be easily removed after coupling. The mirror assembly includes a telescoping stanchion mirror post and a swivel joint which can be vertically rotated. A ball joint connected to the back of the mirror allows the mirror to be turned in any of a variety of positions for precise alignment during the hitching process.

Hitch mirror assembly

An adjustable telescoping mirror is disclosed which may be secured to a surface such as a wall or mirror secured to a wall. The adjustable mirror includes a base having four suction cups arranged in two rows which are parallel to the ground when the base is secured to the wall. A telescoping rod is secured to the base by a first coupling which is located below the suction cups when the base is secured to the wall. The mirror is secured to the other end of the telescoping rod by a second coupling. The couplings have sufficient friction to support the weight of the mirror when it is extended and placed in a desired location, but do not prevent the user from easily moving the mirror as desired. The two rows of suction cups, and their locations above the first coupling, resist forces created by the mirror when it is extended which tend to pull the mirror away from the wall. The location of the first coupling is close to the lower edge of the base so that the device is compact when contracted and folded.
