摘要:
An adjustable sun visor which is capable of providing simultaneous glare protection for both the windshield and the side window. The visor is movable between a stowed position and one of three use modes. In the first use mode, glare protection is provided for the windshield. In the second use mode, glare protection is provided for the side window. And in the third use mode, glare protection is simultaneously provided for the windshield and a side window. The visor is formed from a first blade pivotally mounted to the vehicle by a mounting bracket. A second blade is affixed to the first blade and has a living hinge integrally formed therein enabling swinging movement of the second blade between a position contiguous with the first blade and a position away from the first blade to provide glare protection for the windshield when the visor is in the second use mode.

Mechanism and method for controlling the retraction and extension of blades of an expandable visor wherein a lever mechanism interconnects at least a pair of blades enabling simultaneous movement between the retracted and the extended positions. The lever mechanism has a lever cooperating with a series of guide pins and guide slots inside the shell to control the direction and amount of travel of at least one pair of the blades. If desired, the mechanism enables independent movement of at least one of the blades or simultaneous movement of all the blades between the extended and retracted positions. The mechanism is designed to provide easy control and use of an expandable visor to ensure adequate glare protection from the sun's rays or other sources of light.

A fluid controller has a disk-shaped body member with a positioning mechanism and lip mechanism. The controller is unitary and when positioned in a fluid flow in a first position enables fluid to flow through an axial bore in the disk-shaped member and around the disk member and in a second position enables fluid flow only through the axial bore.

A telescopic sunvisor is disclosed which includes a support arm and a panel which is telescopically mounted on the panel. The support arm has a deployment flat and preferably a stow flat peripherally spaced from the deployment flat. The panel has a core, a retainer or channel which supports the core, and a detent spring assembly or clamp which engages the support arm. The detent spring assembly has a pair of opposing legs which clamp about the support arm. Ideally, the detent spring assembly is made of two opposing U-shaped clips which interlock with one another about the support arm. The detent spring assembly and panel may be selectively rotated about the support arm between stowed and deployed positions. In the deployed position, the detent spring assembly clamps about the deployment flat while allowing sliding movement therebetween such that the panel may be telescopic moved relative to the support arm.

Disclosed is a touch bar switch apparatus useful for the opening of bus doors and the like which may be included in an electro-pneumatic door-operating system of a vehicle. The apparatus includes an elongate touch bar and a pair of housings mounted for receiving the ends of the touch bar, and switch mechanism within at least one of the housings responsive to any lateral movement of the touch bar relative to a housing containing the switch mechanism wherein, as electrically-conductive switch terminals, an elongate, coil spring may warp laterally into contact with a normally concentric sleeve.

A mounting system for use in combination with a vehicle visor which is movable between a storage position and first and second use positions. A mounting bracket is provided which is adapted to be affixed to the vehicle for supporting the visor. The mounting bracket has an immovable pivot shaft extending therefrom. A block cooperating with the mounting bracket is provided to enable pivotal movement of the block and the visor relative to the pivot shaft between a storage position and a first use position. The block also enables pivotal movement of the visor relative to the block between the first use position and a second use position.
