PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a water droplet removing mechanism that can remove a water droplet and mud obstructing imaging from a lens surface of a rearview imaging device without using electricity, and to provide an on-board camera including the same.SOLUTION: The water droplet removing mechanism includes a compressed air injection part 20 for injecting compressed air to the lens surface 13 of the rearview imaging device 10 for imaging a vehicle rear side to clean the lens surface. The compressed air injection part 20 includes: a heavy bob 22 movable during travelling of a vehicle; a volume changing part 23 where a volume changes in accordance with the movement of the heavy bob; and an injection nozzle 24 communicated to the volume changing part to inject compressed air to the lens surface of the rearview imaging device.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

    【課題】電気を使用することなく後方撮像装置のレンズ表面の撮像を妨げる水滴や泥を除去することができる水滴除去機構とこれを備えた車載カメラを提供する。【解決手段】車両後方側を撮像する後方撮像装置10のレンズ表面13に加圧空気を噴射して洗浄する加圧空気噴射部20を備え、加圧空気噴射部20は、車両走行時に移動する重錘22と、この重錘の移動に応じて容積変化を生じる容積変化部23と、この容積変化部に連通し、後方撮像装置のレンズ表面に加圧空気を噴射する噴射ノズル24とを備えている。【選択図】図1
