Abstract
A sun visor for automotive vehicles, including a sun visor body and a separate carrier body. The carrier body and sun visor body being attached to permit longitudinal translation of the visor body with respect to the carrier body while prohibiting rotation of the carrier body apart from the visor body around a swivel axis. Slide bearing rails between the carrier body and visor body permit the longitudinal translation. The arms of the U shape slide rails are cooperatingly shaped to define ball-receiving grooves which enable the translation of the visor body with respect to the carrier body. A sun visor swivel shaft is supported at one end of the carrier body. An outer support pin, supported at the opposite end of the carrier body, is also longitudinally movable with respect to the carrier body and is also received in a hole in the end of the outer support pedestal, which hole has a lateral radial opening.
