The mounting clamp may then be clamped on a ledge or other outwardly projecting member, on either the upper or lower side of a horizontal member, or on the side of an upright member. A stub shaft on the lower end of the lower mounting arm fits within a socket in journaled relation to allow 360° rotation of the mirror. The mirror is detachably mounted on the upper end of the uppermost arm in a ball and socket relation, so the mirror may be adjusted to any angle by the ball and socket arrangement and to any height within the length of the frictionally jointed arms. The frictionally jointed arms have the joints thereof of such tightness that they will remain in any fixed position until manually moved. The mounting clamp has five sockets therein to pivotally receive the stub shaft on the lower end of the lower arm in journaled relation for rotation about the axis thereof. The mirror may be so adjusted as to receive proper lighting for the best viewing and also it is so jointed that the opposite side of the head can be reflected into a second mirror when the jointed arms are properly positioned. | |
