US Patent:
20220203899, Jun 30, 2022
Filed:
Mar 18, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/655382
Inventors:
- Holland MI, US
Christopher R. Koetje - Zeeland MI, US
Anthony J. LaCross - Hastings MI, US
Eric Peterson - West Olive MI, US
International Classification:
B60R 1/12
B60R 1/00
B60R 1/08
B60R 1/04
Abstract:
A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head pivotally adjustable about a mirror support. The mirror head includes a mirror reflective element having a transflective mirror reflector. A video display device is disposed rearward of the mirror reflective element. A touch sensor is disposed at the mirror reflective element and is associated with circuitry at a flexible printed circuit of the video display device. The video display device is operable to display video images captured by a rearward viewing camera of the vehicle. Light emitted by the video display device passes through the transflective mirror reflector for viewing of displayed video images by the driver of the vehicle viewing the mirror reflective element. The mirror reflective element, at the reflective region of the transflective mirror reflector, reflects at least 40 percent of visible light incident at the front side of the mirror reflective element.

US Patent:
20230015198, Jan 19, 2023
Filed:
Sep 28, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/935969
Inventors:
- Holland MI, US
John T. Uken - Jenison MI, US
Christopher R. Koetje - Zeeland MI, US
International Classification:
B60R 1/12
B60R 1/04
Abstract:
A vehicular dual-state interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head including an electrochromic mirror reflective element having a transflective mirror reflector. A video display device occupies at least 75 percent of the viewable reflective region of the mirror reflective element. With the mirror assembly operating in a first state, the video display device does not display video images and the driver views rearward via reflection at the viewable reflective region and, with the mirror assembly operating in a second state, the video display device displays video images for viewing at the viewable reflective region by the driver. When operating in a daytime mode, the display screen utilizes red pixels, green pixels, blue pixels and clear pixels of the display screen, and when operating in a nighttime mode, the display screen utilizes red pixels, green pixels and blue pixels and does not utilize clear pixels.

US Patent:
20210323478, Oct 21, 2021
Filed:
Jun 28, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/304857
Inventors:
- Holland MI, US
John T. Uken - Jenison MI, US
Christopher R. Koetje - Zeeland MI, US
International Classification:
B60R 1/12
B60R 1/04
F21V 23/04
G08B 5/36
B60Q 3/258
Abstract:
An interior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a mirror head, a mirror mounting structure configured to adjustably mount the mirror head at an interior portion of the vehicle, and a receiving portion for receiving a portable accessory module. A retaining element is configured to attach at the mirror casing at the receiving portion to releasably secure the portable accessory module at the receiving portion. With the retaining element at least partially detached from the mirror casing, the portable accessory module is insertable into and removable from the receiving portion. With the portable accessory module inserted into and received at the receiving portion and with the retaining element attached at the mirror casing, the retaining element overlaps a lower portion of the portable accessory module to secure the portable accessory module at the receiving portion.

Vehicular Vision System With Center Stack Display And Mirror Display For Surround View And Cms Cameras

View page
US Patent:
20210245662, Aug 12, 2021
Filed:
Feb 5, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/248736
Inventors:
- Holland MI, US
Christopher R. Koetje - Zeeland MI, US
International Classification:
B60R 1/08
B60R 11/02
B62D 15/02
Abstract:
A vehicular display system includes an electronic control unit (ECU), a plurality of bird's eye surround view cameras and a plurality of camera monitoring system (CMS) cameras disposed at the vehicle. The cameras capture image data and provide captured image data to the ECU. The system includes a video display screen and a video mirror display screen that are operable to display video images derived from video images provided by the ECU. When the vehicle is traveling forward at a speed below a threshold speed, the ECU generates rearward view video images derived from image data captured by the CMS cameras and provides the rearward view video images to the video display screen. When the vehicle is traveling forward at a speed at or above the threshold speed, the ECU generates rearward view video images and provides the rearward view video images to the video mirror display screen.

US Patent:
20210053493, Feb 25, 2021
Filed:
Nov 9, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/949635
Inventors:
- Holland MI, US
Darryl P. De Wind - Canton MI, US
Mark L. Larson - Grand Haven MI, US
Rodney K. Blank - Zeeland MI, US
Christopher R. Koetje - Zeeland MI, US
Eric Peterson - West Olive MI, US
International Classification:
B60R 1/12
B60R 1/04
H04N 5/232
H04N 7/18
H04N 5/262
H04N 5/225
Abstract:
A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head that is pivotally attached via a pivot joint at a mounting structure and that accommodates a reflective element. A display device is disposed within the mirror head. An actuator is disposed within the mirror head and includes an actuator base attached at a rear portion of the reflective element, an actuator body that is pivotally attached at the actuator base, and an electrically operable motor. When the motor is electrically operated, the actuator body pivots relative to the actuator base to pivot the mirror head relative to a socket element of the pivot joint. Pivotal movement of the mirror head relative to the socket element adjusts the reflective element between a mirror mode orientation and a display mode orientation. When the reflective element is in the display mode orientation, the display device is actuated to display video images.
