Rotation system for a vehicle sun visor
A rotation system for a vehicle sun visor that includes a rod coupled to the vehicle sun visor, wherein the rod is configured to couple to a vehicle to support the vehicle sun visor within an interior of the vehicle, and the rod is configured to facilitate rotation of the vehicle sun visor about the rod. The rotation system also includes a contact element non-rotatably coupled to the rod. The rotation system further includes a biasing element configured to urge a contact surface against the contact element to control rotation of the vehicle sun visor about the rod.
MECHANISM FOR SUN VISOR EXTENSION
A vehicle visor includes a visor body having a recessed track assembly disposed therein. An extension blade is slideably mounted to the visor body between stowed and deployed positions. A connecting member includes first and second ends. The first end is received in the recessed track assembly for sliding movement along a continuous loop of the recessed track assembly. The second end is operably coupled to the extension blade for lateral movement therewith between stowed, deployed and clearance positions.
VEHICLE SUN VISOR WITH SLIDE ON ROD FUNCTION
A vehicle sun visor includes an L-shaped rod fixed to the vehicle and a screen rotatably mounted on and slidable on the rod along a sliding direction parallel to a longitudinal axle thereof. The sun visor includes a detent clip coupled to the rod to establish controlled and stable predefined rotational positions of the screen defining at least a first screening position and an inoperative position. The visor further includes a carrier rotatably attached to the rod and housed in a guiding profile of the screen such that the screen is movable between two end positions of the sliding movement of the screen along the rod, defining two end positions. The carrier includes a rotary slider, a floating slider, and a metal spring elastically coupling the floating and rotary sliders. The carrier includes a first retention component engageable with a second retention component in the screen at one of the end positions.
SUN VISOR ASSEMBLY HAVING A SLIDE PANEL
A sun visor assembly includes a visor body having a surface indentation, a slide panel and a guide feature. The guide feature connects the slide panel to the visor body and allows the slide panel to be displaced between a stowed position nested within the surface indentation and a deployed position projecting from the visor body to provide an expanded surface area for shielding the eyes of the driver from direct sunlight and/or glare.

Vehicle visor extension system
A vehicle visor accessory device for selectively extending shading capabilities of a visor may comprise a sleeve structure configured to removably mount on the visor. The sleeve structure may be elongated with an upper end for positioning toward the upper edge section of the visor and a lower end for positioning toward the lower edge section of the visor, and have a first opening located at a first side edge of the sleeve structure through which a portion of the visor is slidable. A notch may be formed in the sleeve structure. An extension structure may be integrated with the sleeve structure. The sleeve structure may have a substantially hollow interior between first and second faces to slidably receive at least a portion of the visor and the extension structure may have a solid interior between the faces to extend light blocking coverage of the visor.
SUN VISOR EXTENDER
A sun visor extender structured and arranged to clip on to a vehicle's existing visor structured and arranged to block the sun in two directions while allowing a user to have an adjustable visor along both windows when needed which also will folds up out of the way when not needed.
Sun visor having extended range of motion
An extended-range sun visor assembly includes a rail and a sun visor panel. The sun visor panel is releasably mounted to the rail at an inboard sun visor panel end and slidably mounted to the rail at an outboard sun visor panel end. The rail may be fixed at opposite ends thereof to a vehicle roof panel and/or headliner. The sun visor panel is releasably mounted at the inboard end by a snap fit retainer, and slidably mounted at the outboard end by a shaft coupler configured to slide along a longitudinal axis of the rail. The shaft coupler pivots or swivels around a shaft coupler vertical axis.
Vehicle sun visor
A vehicle sun visor includes a visor body including a first component member and a second component member that are stacked in a thickness direction, and a support shaft. In the visor body, a case that supports the support shaft such that the support shaft is turnable and that is slidably fitted to the visor body is provided. The case is provided with a clip that urges the visor body toward a storage position by urging the support shaft. A guide rail that prevents the case from falling in the thickness direction with respect to the first component member is provided. The guide rail is formed integrally with the first component member to support the case such that the case is slidable with respect to the first component member.
Vehicle sun visor assembly
A slide-on-rod assembly includes a tube and a carriage configured to move within the tube. The carriage has a first contact surface, the carriage includes a wing rotatably coupled to a body of the carriage, the wing has a second contact surface, the first contact surface of the carriage is configured to contact a corresponding first contact surface of the tube, and the second contact surface of the wing is configured to contact a corresponding second contact surface of the tube. The slide-on-rod assembly also includes a biasing member coupled to the at least one wing and to the body of the carriage. The biasing member is configured to drive the first contact surface of the carriage into contact with the corresponding first contact surface of the tube and the second contact surface of the wing into contact with the corresponding second contact surface of the tube.
