Mirror drive unit

1. A mirror drive unit, comprising:

a power unit disposed in a mirror housing;

a mirror holder tiltably supported by the power unit through a joint; and

an angle detection unit disposed in the power unit, the angle detection unit detecting a tilt angle of the mirror holder,

wherein the angle detection unit is provided with a temporary fixing mechanism for temporarily fixing the angle detection unit to the power unit,

wherein the power unit includes an engagement portion projected from the power unit,

wherein the engagement portion comprises a cylinder portion, which is projected from the power unit and includes an inner peripheral surface slidingly guiding tilting of the mirror holder, and

wherein the temporary fixing mechanism includes a pair of arms, which is projected from a body of the angle detection unit and fitted to the engagement portion of the power unit in a manner of holding the cylinder portion.

2. The mirror drive unit according to claim 1 , wherein

the power unit is provided with rotation stoppers which prevent the angle detection unit from rotating around the cylinder portion by abutting the rotation stoppers on distal ends of the arms of the angle detection unit.

3. The mirror drive unit according to claim 2 , wherein

each of the rotation stoppers includes a rib orthogonally projected from an outer peripheral surface of the cylinder portion.

4. The mirror drive unit according to claim 1 , wherein

the angle detection unit includes claws, and

in a state where the angle detection unit is temporarily fixed, the claws abut on a rear face of the power unit and hold the power unit between the claws and the arms abutting on a front face of the power unit.

5. The mirror drive unit according to claim 1 , wherein

the paired arms include distal ends, and a distance between the distal ends is slightly smaller than an outer diameter of the engagement portion.
