AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing visors for headwear cannot be stowed away in a simple and inconspicuous manner, and are not suitable for bills that are bent or arcuate about a sagittal axis, such as those found on baseball caps.
Method used
A visor with a protective element that is at least partly transparent and flexible, featuring two lateral openings for rotation axes orthogonal to the bill, allowing it to be rotated into a stowage position hidden beneath the bill and into a position of use for protection, without the need for complex hinges.
Benefits of technology
The visor provides effective protection from dust, heat, and direct sun radiation while being space-saving and inconspicuous when not in use, with a design suitable for various bill shapes and materials.

Abstract
A visor for attachment to a face-side bill of a headpiece. The visor has a protective element which is at least partly transparent, is flexible at least in lateral side regions and includes two openings, the openings being arranged laterally opposite one another and through each of which a rotation axis runs. The rotation axes run essentially orthogonally through the bill. The protective element in a stowage position bears on a lower side of the bill in an extensive manner and in a position of use projects at least partly downwards away from the bill. The protective element can be positioned from the stowage position into the position of use by way of the protective element being rotated at the openings about the respective rotation axes in rotation directions which are opposite to one another, amid the bending of at least the lateral side regions of the protective element.
