Abstract
A sun visor for automotive vehicles includes a sun visor body with a mirror on one surface and a cover which is selectively movable to expose and cover up the mirror. The cover is slidable past one edge of the mirror and into a recess defined in the visor body. The length of the recess is shorter than the length of the cover when it is extended. The cover is deformable to fit into the reduced size recess. The cover forms a loop in that recess, or is wound up on a shaft in that recess, etc. The cover is comprised of flexible material or it comprises a series of adjacent slats which are articulatedly connected for deflecting with respect to each other. The cover is guided for its movement in lateral guides.
