Abstract:
A vehicle outside mirror device includes a first rotation restraining mechanism and a second rotation restraining mechanism. As a result, the device is capable of restraining a rotation to a storage location and a rotation of a forward tilt location of a mirror assembly that is positioned in a use location. In this manner, the mirror assembly is rotated from the use location to the storage location by electrically driving an electrically driven storage unit, and then, even in a case where the mirror assembly has been restored from the storage location to the use location in a manually driven manner, in other words, even in a case where a clutch mechanism is disengaged, it becomes possible to lock the mirror assembly that is positioned in the use location.
