Abstract
A vehicle mirror comprises: a mirror surface; an actuatorwhich tilts the mirror surface; a plate pivot, which changes its direction together with the mirror surface; a spring, which applies a resilient force to the plate pivotin the direction substantially vertical to the mirror surface; a guide springwhich is fitted to the end of the springat the side far from the interlocking member; a semiconductor pressure sensor, which is in contact with the guide spring at substantially one point so as to detect a load loaded on the one point from the pressing member; and a signal outputting portion which outputs a signal depending upon the tilted angle of the mirror surface based on the force detected by the semiconductor pressure sensor
