Abstract
In a door mirror device, a drain wall is disposed on a peripheral edge portion of an open hole in a cover. A first inclined surface is arranged to be separated from and below the drain wall. In a case where liquid entering into the mirror device flows into the open hole in the cover, the liquid travels along the drain wall and flows downward. Then, the liquid reaches a distal end of the drain wall and falls from the distal end of the drain wall onto the first inclined surface. The liquid that has fallen onto the first inclined surface travels along the first inclined surface and flows out to a communication hole. Due to this, the liquid is discharged to below a stand via the communication hole, pooling of the liquid between a cover and a motor base above a support shaft can be suppressed.
