Patent attributes
An electrically conductive metallic clip used for lead-out electrodes of an EC mirror has all-shaped section. One of an opposed side pieces of the clip is disposed at the side of an electrically conductive film and is formed in a planar shape. The other side piece disposed at the side of a glass substrate is configured in a curved shape and has a terminal that is outwardly round-opened. A central portion of the other side piece is formed in a convex shape so that an opening thereof is narrowed. When a sealing resin expands, an occurrence of poor contact between a lead-out electrode portion and the clip is prevented. Moreover, good workability for attaching the clip to the substrate is realized. Furthermore, the lead-out electrode is prevented from being damaged. Additionally, the clip is prevented from being deformed when the clip is fitted onto the substrate.
