Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to sun visors and vehicles, and belongs to the technical field of vehicle interiors. Background Technology

[0002] Direct sunlight can easily cause glare to the driver while the car is in motion, reducing driving comfort and potentially leading to traffic safety hazards due to obstructed vision. Therefore, sun visors are installed in cars to block strong sunlight, preventing direct glare from the driver's eyes, ensuring clear vision during driving, and improving driving safety and passenger comfort.

[0003] Existing automotive sun visors mostly use a traditional hinged fixed installation structure, typically only installed on the upper side of the windshield or a single side window. The installation position is fixed and the adjustment range is limited. Because the sun's position dynamically changes with season, time of day, and driving direction, sunlight received inside the vehicle often comes from multiple directions, such as low-angle direct or oblique sunlight during sunrise and sunset. Existing sun visors can only achieve simple angle adjustments such as flipping up and down around a fixed hinge, and can only block light from specific directions. They are often ineffective at blocking low-angle oblique sunlight from the side, resulting in poor adaptability between the shading range and the light source.

[0004] Therefore, there is room for improvement in traditional vehicle sun visors. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This disclosure provides a vehicle sun visor and a vehicle that can be flexibly adjusted to a lateral position on the upper side of the windshield or the upper side window according to the direction of light, fully covering glare areas in different directions and improving driving safety and comfort.

[0006] Specifically, the first aspect of this disclosure provides a sun visor for a vehicle, which can be selectively installed on an interior panel above the windshield and / or an interior panel above the side window to block sunlight, and the sun visor can be displaced at least laterally above the windshield and / or the side window.

[0007] The sun visor with the above configuration can flexibly adjust its installation position and shading area according to the changes in the sun's position and the direction of light incidence by laterally shifting its position on the upper side of the windshield or the upper side window. This effectively covers glare scenarios that are difficult to block with existing technologies, such as low-angle direct light and side oblique light. It solves the problem of incomplete shading caused by the fixed installation position and limited adjustment range of traditional sun visors, improves the clarity and comfort of vision during driving, enhances driving safety, and can meet diverse shading needs.

[0008] Preferably, in the sun visor of the first aspect, the sun visor is disposed on the interior panel in a manner that allows it to be detached as a whole.

[0009] The sun visor with the above configuration is installed on the interior panel in a detachable manner, which allows it to be quickly and flexibly switched between the front position on the upper side of the windshield and the side position on the upper side of the side window to meet the shading needs in different directions. On the other hand, since it is detachable, the sun visor can also be installed in both the front and side positions at the same time according to the actual light conditions, so as to achieve simultaneous blocking of forward and side light, breaking the limitation of traditional sun visors that can only block one direction, either the front or the side.

[0010] Preferably, in the sun visor of the first aspect, the sun visor includes a sun visor body and an attachment portion disposed on the sun visor body, the sun visor is mounted to the interior panel via the attachment portion, and the sun visor is positioned at different positions in the lateral direction by changing the mounting position of the attachment portion on the interior panel.

[0011] With the sun visor having the above configuration, by setting an attachment part on the sun visor body to achieve installation and cooperation with the interior panel, the sun visor can be easily positioned in different positions in the horizontal direction simply by changing the installation position of the attachment part on the interior panel. The horizontal positioning adjustment operation is simple and does not require the application of a complex adjustment structure to the sun visor body, which not only ensures the stability of the sun visor after installation, but also improves the flexibility of use in the horizontal dimension.

[0012] Preferably, in the sunshade of the first aspect, the attachment portion of the sunshade is a magnet.

[0013] With the sun visor configured as described above, the attachment part of the sun visor is made into a magnet, which makes the installation, removal and position adjustment of the sun visor and the interior panel very convenient. No additional tools are required. The magnetic attraction can quickly fix or separate the sun visor. Moreover, the adsorption characteristics of the magnet can ensure that the sun visor is firmly attached to the interior panel after installation, effectively preventing displacement caused by vibration during vehicle driving. Furthermore, by changing the adsorption position of the magnet at different points in the lateral direction, the lateral positioning adjustment of the sun visor can be easily and conveniently achieved, making it highly operable.

[0014] Preferably, in the sunshade of the first aspect, the magnet is configured such that both the front and back sides of the sunshade body have an attractive force.

[0015] With the sun visor configured as described above, the magnet is designed to have magnetic attraction on both the front and back of the sun visor body. Therefore, it is not necessary to distinguish the installation orientation of the sun visor to quickly achieve magnetic fixation with the interior panel, which simplifies the installation process. Moreover, it allows for flexible selection of the adsorption surface of the sun visor according to the actual needs of the light incident direction and the installation area of ​​the interior panel, making it easier for drivers and passengers to meet diverse light-blocking needs.

[0016] Preferably, in the sun visor of the first aspect, the sun visor body includes an attachment plate portion, a sun visor portion disposed on the lower side of the attachment plate portion, and a connecting portion connecting the attachment plate portion and the sun visor portion. The attachment portion is formed on the attachment plate portion, such that the sun visor is mounted to the interior panel at the attachment plate portion, and the connecting portion is a connecting mechanism with damping force, so as to provide damping for the rotation of the sun visor portion relative to the attachment plate portion, thereby enabling the sun visor portion to rotate relative to the attachment plate portion and remain at different angular positions.

[0017] The sun visor with the above configuration, by dividing the sun visor body into an attachment plate portion and a sun visor portion, allows for independent installation and fixation to the interior trim panel using only the attachment plate portion, ensuring the overall stability of the sun visor installation without affecting the sun shading of the sun visor portion. The connection between the attachment plate portion and the sun visor portion employs a damping connection mechanism, providing stable damping for the rotation of the sun visor portion relative to the attachment plate portion. This allows the sun visor portion to smoothly rotate at multiple angles and stably maintain itself at the target angle position, preventing vibration displacement or angular deviation without the need for additional fixing structures.

[0018] Preferably, in the sun visor of the first aspect, the sun visor body further includes an extension plate portion, the extension plate portion being disposed below the sun visor portion and connected to the sun visor portion via an additional connecting portion, the additional connecting portion being a connecting mechanism with damping force, so as to provide damping for the rotation of the extension plate portion relative to the sun visor portion, thereby enabling the extension plate portion to rotate relative to the sun visor portion and remain at different angular positions.

[0019] With the sun visor configured as described above, the extension plate added below the sun visor further expands the vertical light-blocking coverage of the sun visor. Furthermore, the additional connecting part with damping force allows the extension plate to rotate at multiple angles and be stably maintained at the target angle, enabling the driver to adjust the angle as needed for light blocking without obstructing their view. In addition, by incorporating the extension plate, not only can it meet the light-blocking needs of the driver's seat, but the installation position and unfolding shape of the sun visor can also be adjusted according to the usage scenarios of the front passenger or rear passengers. This allows the sun visor and the extension plate to together form a larger light-blocking area, achieving a better light-blocking effect similar to a sunshade curtain, effectively meeting the personalized light-blocking needs of different seated passengers.

[0020] Preferably, in the sunshade of the first aspect, the sunshade body includes a base plate portion, an extension portion located on at least one side in the lateral direction of the base plate portion, and a vertical connecting portion connecting the base plate portion and the extension portion, wherein the extension portion is switchable between a stacked position on the front or back of the base plate portion and an unfolded position unfolded on the at least one side of the base plate portion.

[0021] According to the sun visor with the above configuration, the extension can be stacked and stored on both sides of the base plate or unfolded to the side. When stored, it reduces the volume and saves space, while when unfolded, it can significantly widen the lateral light-blocking range. By adjusting the installation position of the sun visor and the unfolding shape of the extension, not only can the base plate adapt to the single-sided light blocking needs of the front or side with a wider light-blocking range, but the extension can also extend from the front to the side to cover the double-sided light of the front and side, achieving simultaneous light blocking of the front and side. This solves the problem that traditional sun visors cannot handle wide-range glare from multiple directions, providing multi-dimensional light blocking and effectively avoiding interference from strong light from different directions on the driver's and passengers' vision, ensuring clear vision during driving. At the same time, it meets the personalized needs of the driver, front passenger, and rear passengers for wide-range lateral light blocking, significantly improving the flexibility of use, the comprehensiveness of light blocking, and the overall driving and riding comfort of the sun visor.

[0022] Preferably, in the sun visor of the first aspect, the attachment portion is further provided on the sun visor portion, such that the sun visor portion can be installed to the interior panel via the attachment portion.

[0023] With the sun visor having the above configuration, the attachment part is provided on both the attachment part and the sun visor part, so that when there is no need for sun shading, the entire sun visor can be firmly attached to the interior panel through the attachment parts at multiple positions and thus be stored as a whole, avoiding obstruction of the driver's and passengers' view.

[0024] A second aspect of this disclosure provides a vehicle, including: a sun visor as described in the first aspect; and a mating attachment portion disposed on an interior trim panel above the windshield and an interior trim panel above the side window for attachment to the attachment portion, the mating attachment portion being configured as a strip or a plurality of discrete points extending within a lateral displacement range of the sun visor.

[0025] The vehicle of the second aspect of this disclosure, by employing the sun visor described in the first aspect, is also able to achieve the various corresponding technical effects mentioned above.

[0026] The sun visor and vehicle disclosed herein have been described in general terms above. The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, will provide further details for easier understanding. Attached Figure Description

[0045] The technical solution of the present invention will be described more clearly below by referring to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0046] It should be noted that the accompanying drawings of this invention are merely schematic diagrams for clearly illustrating parts related to the present invention and do not show some unnecessary parts. Therefore, these drawings should not be construed as limiting the invention, and may differ from the actual structure in use. Furthermore, it should be understood that the terms "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," and "rear," etc., indicating orientation or position, may appear in the following description for ease of explanation and are not restrictive. In this disclosure, "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," and "rear" all represent conventional vehicle directions, i.e., the front of the vehicle is "front," the rear is "rear," the roof is "up," and the bottom is "down." Left and right when facing forward are "left" and "right." Additionally, in embodiments, the vertical direction is the vehicle's height direction, while the horizontal direction is the horizontal direction intersecting the height direction, including orthogonal horizontal directions orthogonal to the vertical direction and oblique horizontal directions oblique to the vertical direction. Similarly, for clarity and brevity, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description.

[0047] This disclosure provides a vehicle sun visor 10, which can be flexibly adjusted in lateral position above the windshield 1 or the side window 3 according to the direction of light, comprehensively covering glare areas from different directions and improving driving safety and comfort. Hereinafter, various embodiments of the sun visor 10 of this disclosure will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] <First Embodiment>

[0049] Figure 1 and Figure 2 A sunshade 10 according to a first embodiment of this disclosure is shown. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the sun visor 10 can be selectively installed on the interior panel 2 above the windshield 1 or the interior panel 4 above the side window 3 to block sunlight, and the sun visor 10 can be moved at least laterally on the windshield 1 or the side window 3 as indicated by the hollow arrow.

[0050] exist Figure 1 The image shows a scenario where the sun visor 10 is simultaneously mounted on the interior trim panel 2 above the windshield 1 or the interior trim panel 4 above the side window 3; however, this is not limiting. The sun visor 10 may also be optionally mounted on either the interior trim panel 2 above the windshield 1 or the interior trim panel 4 above the side window 3. Additionally, although not shown, the sun visor 10 may also be mounted on the interior trim panel of the passenger side or the rear side window 3.

[0051] The sun visor 10 in this embodiment can be flexibly adjusted in terms of installation position and shading area according to the changes in the sun's position and the direction of light incidence by shifting laterally on the upper side of the windshield 1 or the upper side window 3 as shown by the hollow arrow. This effectively covers glare scenarios that are difficult to block with existing technologies, such as low-angle direct light and side oblique light. It solves the problem of incomplete shading caused by the fixed installation position and limited adjustment range of traditional sun visors 10, improves the clarity and comfort of vision during driving, enhances driving safety, and can meet diverse shading needs.

[0052] In this embodiment, the sun visor 10 can be detachably mounted on the interior trim panels 2 and 4. Therefore, for example, when it is necessary to switch the sun visor 10 from the front position above the windshield 1 to the side position above the side window 3, or from the side position back to the front position, it can be switched quickly and flexibly to meet the shading needs in different directions. Furthermore, because it is detachable, it can also be adjusted according to actual light conditions, such as… Figure 1 As shown, the sun visor 10 is installed in both the front and side positions, achieving simultaneous blocking of forward and side light, breaking the limitation of the traditional sun visor 10 which can only block one of the front or side light.

[0053] To install the sun visor 10 onto the interior trim panel, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sun visor 10 includes a sun visor body 20 and an attachment portion 30 disposed on the sun visor body 20. The sun visor 10 is mounted to the interior trim panel via the attachment portion 30, and by changing the mounting position of the attachment portion 30 on the interior trim panels 2 and 4, the sun visor 10 is positioned at different locations in the lateral direction. Accordingly, mating attachment portions 40 are provided on the areas for mounting the sun visor 10 on the interior trim panel 2 above the vehicle windshield 1 and the interior trim panel 4 above the side window 3. The attachment portion 30 of the sun visor 10 is attached to the mating attachment portion 40 of the interior trim panel, thereby mounting the sun visor 10 to the interior trim panels 2 and 4.

[0054] As can be seen, by setting the attachment part 30 on the sun visor body 20 to achieve installation and cooperation with the interior panels 2 and 4, the sun visor 10 can be easily positioned in different positions in the horizontal direction simply by changing the installation position of the attachment part 30 on the interior panels 2 and 4. The horizontal positioning adjustment operation is simple and does not require the application of a complex adjustment structure to the sun visor body 20. This ensures the stability of the sun visor 10 after installation and improves the flexibility of use in the horizontal dimension.

[0055] In this embodiment, the attachment portion 30 of the sun visor 10 is a magnet. Correspondingly, the mating attachment portions 40 provided on the interior trim panels 2 and 4 are also mating magnets, and are attached to each other by magnetic attraction. Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the magnets serving as attachment parts 30 of the sun visor 10 can be several (two in this embodiment, but the number is not limited to this and can be set arbitrarily) circular magnetic sheets disposed at the top of the sun visor body 20. Correspondingly, the magnets serving as pairing attachment parts 40 disposed on the interior panels 2 and 4 can be magnetic strips extending within the range of lateral displacement of the sun visor 10, or they can be multiple discrete magnetic points. Figure 1 The approximate location of the mating attachment is indicated only by the reference numeral 40. For aesthetic purposes, the mating attachment 40 is concealed within the interior trim pieces 2 and 4 and is not exposed. Figure 1 The specific details of the mating attachment 40 are not shown in the drawing.

[0056] By using a magnet as the attachment part 30 of the sun visor 10, the installation, removal, and position adjustment of the sun visor 10 and the interior trim panels 2 and 4 are very convenient. No additional tools are needed; the magnetic attraction allows for quick fixation or separation. Furthermore, the magnetic attraction ensures that the sun visor 10 is firmly attached to the interior trim panels after installation, effectively preventing displacement due to vibration during vehicle operation. By changing the magnetic attraction position at different points laterally, the lateral positioning adjustment of the sun visor 10 can be easily and conveniently achieved, offering high operability. For example, when the position of the sun visor 10 needs to be adjusted laterally, the current sun visor 10 can be simply removed and attached to the mating attachment part 40 at another location. When the mating attachment part 40 is a single magnetic strip, the sun visor 10 can be directly dragged laterally to change its position.

[0057] In this embodiment, the magnet serving as the attachment part 30 of the sun visor 10 can have adsorption force on both the front and back sides. For example, magnetic sheets can be adhered to both sides of a single sheet, and the magnetism on both sides is the same. Therefore, when installing the sun visor 10 onto the interior trim panels 2 and 4, magnetic fixation with the interior trim panels 2 and 4 can be quickly achieved without distinguishing the installation orientation of the sun visor 10, simplifying the installation process. Furthermore, it allows for flexible selection of the adsorption surface of the sun visor 10 according to the direction of light incidence and the actual needs of the interior trim panel installation area, enabling occupants to more easily meet diverse shading needs. Moreover, the front and back of the interior trim panels can be designed with different finishes to meet users' personalized preferences.

[0058] like Figure 2As shown, the sun visor body 20 of the sun visor 10 may include an attachment plate portion 21, a sun visor portion 22 disposed below the attachment plate portion 21, and a connecting portion 23 connecting the attachment plate portion 21 and the sun visor portion 22. A circular magnetic attachment portion 30 is formed on the attachment plate portion 21, so that the sun visor 10 is mounted to the interior trim panels 2 and 4 at the attachment plate portion 21. The connecting portion 23 is a damping connection mechanism to provide damping for the rotation of the sun visor portion 22 relative to the attachment plate portion 21, thereby allowing the sun visor portion 22 to rotate relative to the attachment plate portion 21 and remain at different angular positions.

[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the connecting part 23 with damping force on the sun visor body 20 can be constructed using a pivot and clamps. Specifically, several clamps with annular clamping surfaces can be provided on the back of the attachment plate part 21, and a pivot can be provided on the sun visor part 22. The pivot can be tightly fitted into the clamps and clamped by the clamps. When adjusting the angle, the user applies force, causing the pivot to rotate relative to the clamps against the clamping force and friction. When the adjustment is in place, the user releases the grip, and the pivot maintains the angle position through the clamping force of the clamps and the friction between the pivot and the clamps.

[0060] As can be seen, this embodiment divides the sun visor body 20 into an attachment plate portion 21 and a sun visor portion 22. The attachment plate portion 21 alone can be used to install and fix the sun visor to the interior trim panels 2 and 4, ensuring the overall stability of the sun visor 10 installation without affecting the sun visor portion 22's sun-shading function. The connection portion 23 between the attachment plate portion 21 and the sun visor portion 22 employs a damping connection mechanism, providing stable damping for the rotation of the sun visor portion 22 relative to the attachment plate portion 21. This allows the sun visor portion 22 to smoothly rotate at multiple angles and stably maintain itself at the target angle position, preventing vibration displacement or angle shift without the need for additional fixing structures.

[0061] The sun visor 10 of the first embodiment of this disclosure has been basically described above. Since it can be moved at least laterally on the upper side of the windshield 1 or the upper side of the side window 3 as shown by the hollow arrow, the driver and passengers can move the lateral position of the sun visor 10 arbitrarily according to the direction of sunlight, so as to effectively block sunlight from various directions and avoid glare.

[0062] It is important to note that Figure 1 The image shows that sunshades 10 are attached to both the upper side of the windshield 1 and the upper side of the side window 3, but this is not restrictive and one can be installed at a time. Figure 1 Two sunshades 10 are installed side by side on the upper side of the windshield 1 and the upper side of the side window 3, but this is not restrictive and only one or more can be installed. Figure 1The dimensions of the sun visor 10 shown are merely an example; the sun visor 10 can be configured to various required dimensions as needed.

[0063] <Second Embodiment>

[0064] Figure 4 This illustrates a sunshade 10 according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0065] The sun visor 10 of the second embodiment is basically the same as the sun visor 10 of the first embodiment, except that the connection portion 23 between the attachment portion 30 and the sun visor portion 22 is provided. Therefore, only the parts that are different from the first embodiment will be described below.

[0066] In the second embodiment, unlike the connection 23 between the attachment part 30 and the sunshade part 22 which is constructed by a pivot and a clamp, in this embodiment, the connection part 23 is constructed simply by a material with shape retention properties, without the need for a pivot and a clamp.

[0067] <Third Embodiment>

[0068] Figure 5 This illustrates a sunshade 10 according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0069] The sun visor 10 of the third embodiment is basically the same as the sun visor 10 of the first embodiment, except that the sun visor body 20 also includes an extension plate portion 24. Hereinafter, only the parts that are different from the first embodiment will be described.

[0070] In the third embodiment, the extension plate portion 24 of the sun visor body 20 is disposed below the sun visor portion 22 and connected to the sun visor portion via an additional connecting portion 25. The additional connecting portion 25 is a connecting mechanism with damping force, which can provide damping for the rotation of the extension plate portion 24 relative to the sun visor portion 22, thereby allowing the extension plate portion 24 to rotate relative to the sun visor portion 22 and remain at different angular positions.

[0071] The additional connecting portion 25, which provides damping and is located between the sunshade portion 22 and the extension plate portion 24 in this embodiment, can be configured the same as the connecting portion 23 in the first embodiment or the second embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

[0072] According to the third embodiment, the extension plate 24 added below the sun visor 22 can further expand the vertical light-blocking coverage of the sun visor 10. Furthermore, the additional connecting part 25 with damping force allows the extension plate 24 to rotate at multiple angles and be stably maintained at the target angle, enabling the driver to adjust the angle as needed for light blocking without obstructing the driver's view. In addition, by providing the extension plate 24, not only can it meet the light-blocking needs of the driver's seat, but the installation position and unfolding form of the sun visor 10 can also be adjusted according to the usage scenarios of the passenger seat or rear passengers. This allows the sun visor 22 and the extension plate 24 to jointly form a larger light-blocking area, achieving a better light-blocking effect similar to a sunshade curtain, effectively meeting the personalized light-blocking needs of different seat passengers.

[0073] It is important to note that Figure 5 The figure shows the extension plate 24 fully extended from below the sun visor 22. However, the extension plate 24 can also be stacked on top of the sun visor 22 and extended only when needed. Furthermore, the size of the extension plate 24 is not limited to that shown in the figure, and the number can be more than one.

[0074] <Fourth Embodiment>

[0075] Figure 6 This illustrates a sunshade 10 according to a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0076] The sun visor 10 of the fourth embodiment is basically the same as the sun visor 10 of the first embodiment, except that the sun visor body 20 also includes a lateral extension portion 20B. Hereinafter, only the parts that differ from the first embodiment will be described.

[0077] In the fourth embodiment, as shown in the figure, when the Figure 6 When the portion shown on the left side of the diagram, identical to that in the first embodiment, is considered as the base plate portion 20A, the sunshade body 20 also includes an extension portion 20B located on one side of the base plate portion 20A in the lateral direction (right side of the diagram) and a vertical connecting portion 20C connecting the base plate portion 20A and the extension portion 20B. The configuration of the vertical connecting portion 20C provided between the base plate portion 20A and the extension portion 20B in this embodiment can be the same as that of the connecting portion 23 in the first or second embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

[0078] Figure 6 The diagram shows the extension 20B fully extended on one side of the base plate 20A. However, the extension 20B can also be stacked on the front or back of the base plate 20A, and can be switched from the stowed position to the extended position only when needed by the occupants.

[0079] In the fourth embodiment, the extension portion 20B of the sun visor 10 can be stacked and stored on both sides of the base plate portion 20A or unfolded to the side. When stored, it reduces the volume and does not take up space, while when unfolded, it can significantly widen the lateral light-blocking range. By adjusting the installation position of the sun visor 10 and the unfolding shape of the extension portion 20B, not only can the base plate portion 20A adapt to the single-sided light blocking needs of the front or side with a wider light-blocking range, but the extension portion 20B can also extend from the front to the side to cover the double-sided light of the front and side, realizing simultaneous light blocking of the front and side. This solves the problem that traditional sun visors 10 cannot take into account the wide glare from multiple directions, and provides multi-dimensional light blocking, thereby effectively avoiding the interference of strong light from different directions on the driver's and passengers' vision, ensuring the clarity of vision during driving, and meeting the personalized needs of the driver, passenger and rear passengers for wide lateral light blocking. This significantly improves the flexibility of use, the comprehensiveness of light blocking and the overall driving comfort of the sun visor 10.

[0080] It is important to note that Figure 6 The dimensions of the extension 20B shown are merely an example and can be set to any desired size.

[0081] <Modification 1 of the Fourth Embodiment>

[0082] Figure 7 A variation of the fourth embodiment is shown.

[0083] In this variation, except Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the extension portion 20B provided on one side (right side in the figure) of the base plate portion 20A of the sunshade 10, on the opposite side ( Figure 7 The same extension 20B is also provided on the left side of the middle section.

[0084] That is, foldable and unfoldable extension portions 20B are provided on both sides of the base plate portion 20A of the sunshade 10, thereby further expanding the sunshade range and meeting various sunshade needs. The dimensions of the extension portions 20B on both sides can be the same or different.

[0085] <Modification 2 of the Fourth Embodiment>

[0086] Figure 8 A variation of the fourth embodiment, example 2, is shown.

[0087] In this variation, the extension 20B includes not only the sun visor portion 22 but also the attachment portion 30, meaning the extension 20B can also be attached to the interior trim panels 2 and 4. In other words, in this variation 2, it can be understood that multiple sun visor portions of the first, second, and third embodiments are provided horizontally and connected in the middle by a vertical connecting portion 20C.

[0088] In this modified example 2, since the extension 20B also has an attachment portion 30, the entire sun visor 10 can be more firmly and securely attached to the interior panels 2 and 4.

[0089] It should be noted that in the third and fourth embodiments and various modifications, the extension plate portion 24 and the extension portion 20B can be provided with, for example, magnetic adsorption portions, so that they can be adsorbed onto the sunshade portion 22 when stacked, and will not be accidentally unfolded.

[0090] <Other Embodiments>

[0091] In the foregoing embodiments, the attachment portion 30 composed of magnets was described using a plurality of circular magnetic sheets formed on the upper side of the attachment plate portion 21 as an example; however, this is not limiting. The magnetic sheets can be any other shape, and the magnetic sheets may not be discrete points but a single magnet, or the magnet may not extend from the upper side of the attachment plate portion 21 but be directly disposed on the front and / or back side of the attachment plate portion.

[0092] In the foregoing embodiments, the attachment portion 30 and the mating attachment portion 40 were described using magnets of opposite polarities that can attract each other as examples. However, this is not limiting. For example, they can also be constructed using a sliding mechanism such as a slide rail or slider.

[0093] In the aforementioned embodiments, the sun visor portion can be moved laterally. However, by reasonably arranging the position and size of the mating attachment portion 40 on the interior panel, the sun visor portion can also be moved obliquely or vertically.

[0094] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can occur depending on design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this invention should be included within the scope of protection of this invention.
