Abstract

The present invention relates to a vehicle rear-view mirror assembly, comprising an electrochromic mirror element, said element comprising: a substantially transparent first electrically conductive base material, which comprises a first surface and a second surface as well as a first edge surface; a substantially transparent second electrically conductive base material, comprising a third surface and a fourth surface as well as a second edge surface; a sealing piece, approximately circumferentially arranged between peripheral areas of the first electrically conductive base material and the second electrically conductive base material, so as to seal and combine the second surface and the third surface and define an empty cavity; an electrochromic medium, which is arranged within the empty cavity; and a substantially transparent con-cave outer casing, comprising an outer casing upper part which has an upper part outer surface and an upper part inner surface, and an outer casing side part which has a side part outer surface and a side part inner surface, a covering layer being provided along the outer casing side part and an area along the periphery of the outer casing upper part; when examining from the concave outer casing outer surface, the sealing piece is hidden behind the covering layer. The present vehicle rear-view mirror has advantageous qualities such as being aesthetically pleasing as a whole, providing a wide field of view, being safe and injury preventing, and not easily shattering.
