摘要： A sun visor assembly which utilizes a plurality of modular visor core components and an outer covering. The visor core components each include an alignment element which cooperates with an alignment element on the outer covering thereby maintaining the visor core components in the proper location. The modularity of the visor core components allows for their use with any one of a plurality of differently configured outer coverings and in a plurality of different visor core component combinations. The modular components include a hinge block for rotatably engaging a visor support rod, a pin section having an exposed support member for supporting a free end of the visor blade and track components for slidingly engaging other components such as a sun visor extension panel.

摘要： A visor torque control comprises a spring steel body having a flange adapted to be mounted to the body of a visor and a semicylindrical collar for circumscribing at least a portion of a cylindrical visor rod. The end of the semicylindrical collar in one embodiment integrally includes an outwardly projecting tang which allows the torque control to be snap-fitted over the visor rod and further allows the diameter of the collar to be selectively adjusted. The interior of the spring steel member is integrally coated with a polymeric material to provide the desired frictional characteristics and operational feel of the rotation of the visor about the visor rod.

摘要： A sun visor assembly including a core member and an outer covering assembly which folds over the core member and fastens to itself to secure the core member therein. The core member includes one or more first aligning elements, such as pegs outwardly projecting from the surfaces of the core member, and the outer covering assembly includes one or more complementary second aligning elements, such as holes in the rigid foundation of the cover which is externally covered by an upholstery material. When the outer covering assembly is folded over the core member during visor assembly, the first and second aligning elements mate to secure the core member substantially within the outer covering assembly.

摘要： A spring clip, an arm assembly including a pivot rod, and a clip housing are provided for a vehicle visor for providing holding torque when the vehicle visor is in its storage position against a headliner of the vehicle. The spring clip includes a bowed leaf-spring member having a crown portion which imposes a force against a flat formed on one side of the pivot rod. An equal opposing force is applied to a pair of spaced flats formed on the opposite side of the pivot rod by tab portions which extend from first and second legs which, in turn, extend from opposite sides of the leaf-spring member. In two embodiments, the pivot rod extends through D-shaped holes formed when the tab portions are bent inwardly from their respective legs to allow the pivot rod to pass through the body of the clip. The tab portions are preferably bent from their legs at approximately 90.degree. to form surfaces which bear against the spaced flats of the pivot rod opposite the crown portion of the leaf-spring member. In some embodiments, the spring clip also incorporates one or more protrusions and/or recesses to positively engage the clip housing. In one embodiment, the clip housing includes a mounting portion for mounting the clip housing to the roof of the vehicle.

摘要： A bearing device for a swivelable sun visor used in a vehicle, wherein the sun visor body is supported by a bearing shaft, one end of which is received in the sun visor body and the other end of which is mounted in the vehicle. The bearing body for the shaft in the sun visor body is molded along with a reinforcement frame embedded in the sun visor body. The bearing body includes a bearing bore defined by two rows of generally semicircularly shaped ribs and the ribs on one side are interleaved with the ribs from the other side to define the bearing opening for the shaft. The bearing shaft inserted in the bearing body includes a groove which receives a U-shaped spring therein which presses against the walls of the groove and is pressed against the insides of the ribs for holding the swivel position of the bearing body and the visor body. The ribs define a radial enlargement and when the shaft and the spring are rotated to urge the spring into the enlargement, the bearing body and the visor body are detented in a selected position.

摘要： An arrangement for attaching a visor to a vehicle in storage and use positions. The attachment arrangement is formed from a pivot shaft having a mounted end adapted to be mounted to the vehicle and a free end. The pivot shaft has a flat surface which is oriented along the longitudinal axis of the pivot shaft a predetermined distance between the mounting end and the free end. The pivot shaft further has a circumambient groove located around the pivot shaft. A spring clip is also provided which cooperates between the visor and the pivot shaft to pivotally position the visor. The spring clip has a narrow portion which cooperates with the flat surface on the pivot shaft to provide a detent for positioning the visor in a storage position. The spring clip has a wide portion which spans the predetermined distance and is located opposite the narrow portion to ensure free pivotal movement of the visor about the pivot shaft except in the storage position. The spring clip further has a locating follower on the wide portion cooperating with the groove for longitudinally locating the spring clip on the pivot shaft.

摘要： A hinge assembly is disclosed which is particularly well suited for vehicle accessory application such as for vehicle sun visors for example. A hinge assembly according to the present invention includes a rod member interconnected with the vehicle interior or other fixed member. A generally hollow elongated sleeve member is interconnected with a movable member and is adapted for longitudinally receiving the rod member for relative rotation therewithin. A resilient biasing member, which is preferably a leaf-type spring, is received within the sleeve member for resiliently biasing the rod member laterally against the interior surface of the sleeve member in order to provide a frictional relative rotational engagement between the rod member and the sleeve member. The leaf spring, the rod member, and the sleeve member in preferred embodiments of the present invention are configured and arranged to provide detented positions at predetermined relative rotational orientations of the pivotally interconnected members, to which the movable member is self-propelled whenever it is rotated into relatively close rotational proximity with such predetermined pivoted orientations.
