Abstract
An adjustable rear view mirror, the mirror element of which is supported by a ball-and-socket-like joint, and can be adjusted by two elements that can be actuated by pressure medium. In order to use single-acting adjustment elements, a reset spring is associated with the two elements. This reset spring is disposed on an imaginary line that bisects the angle defined by the two adjustment elements and the ball-and-socket-like joint. This reset spring is expediently a compression spring that is disposed across from the two adjustment elements.
