摘要： In response to an operation of reversing a vehicle, a tilt motor is rotated by a specific amount in a normal direction to tilt a mirror angle to a position that permits a mirror to provide the driver with a view of the area near a rear wheel of the vehicle, while in response to an operation of releasing the reverse gear, the tilt motor is rotated by a specific amount in a reverse direction to restore the tilt angle to a normal position thereof. During the operations, a high-frequency signal generated upon switching a brush of the motor is detected using a pickup coil to determine an amount of rotation of the motor. One and the same pickup coil may be used for detection during both of normal and reverse rotations. A voltage of a battery 3 is stabilized in a motor power stabilizing circuit 10, and supplied via a motor driving circuit 8 to a tilt motor M2. Polarity of the voltage outputted from the motor power stabilizing circuit 10 is fixed. Polarity of the voltage outputted from the motor driving circuit 8 is switchable according to a switching operation of the motor driving circuit 8 based upon a driving direction instruction. The pickup coil L10 is provided between the motor power stabilizing circuit 10 and the motor driving circuit 8.

摘要： A mirror (18) having a specular surface changeable in orientation using an actuator (16) is provided with an angle detection capability at reduced cost. A plate pivot (10) can change its orientation together with the specular surface so as to orient in a direction in which the specular surface is orienting. A slide block (20) is stressed toward the plate pivot (10) so that rotation of the plate pivot (10) causes the slide block (20) to move in a direction substantially perpendicular to the specular surface by an amount proportional to an amount of the rotation of the plate pivot (10). A magnet (26) moves in the direction of movement of the slide block (20) by an amount proportional to an amount of the movement of the slide block (20), and a magnetism sensing element (202) detects magnetism derived from the magnet (26) and outputs a signal corresponding to the amount of movement of the magnet (26).
