Patent ID: 6926414

Claim:
A hinge actuator for a wing mirror of motor vehicles, which is operative between an extreme fold-in position and an extreme fold-out position and between the extreme fold-out position and an extreme fold-over position, comprising a mirror base ( 1 ), provided with a base shaft ( 2 ) and a base flange ( 3 ), and a frame ( 4 ) with a frame part ( 5 ) which extends around the base shaft ( 2 ) and is supported on the base flange ( 3 ), characterized in that a first cam track ( 6 , 23 ) located between the base shaft ( 2 ) and the frame part ( 5 ), with at least one bearing element ( 9 ), is present, and a first elastic element ( 7 , 24 ) extending on a side along said first cam track ( 6 , 23 ), wherein during a rotation of the frame ( 4 ) relative to the base shaft ( 2 ) between the extreme fold-in position and the extreme fold-out position the first elastic element ( 7 , 24 ) in contact with the bearing element ( 9 ) undergoes a deformation, and wherein during a rotation of the frame ( 4 ) relative to the base shaft ( 2 ) between the extreme fold-out position and the extreme fold-over position the first elastic element ( 7 ) in contact with the bearing element ( 9 ) undergoes a further-going deformation.
