ABSTRACT:
A sun visor with extending shields, which include a forward member (30) configured for attachment to a support rod (32). An extending shield actuator (46) is disposed within a recess (38) in the forward member and is attached to a lower glare shield (60). A left and right horizontal glare shield (64) and (70) are slidably attached to an extending column projecting from the actuator including a post (52), spacer (56) and lever (58). A back member (76), with a stepped indentation (78), is attached to the forward member thereby forming a hollow visor. When the lever is manually pulled down through a slit (80) in the back member, the extending column on the actuator interfaces with diagonal slots (66) and (66') in the horizontal shields, thus extending them outward in an opposite direction while simultaneously extending the lower shield. Shield corners (72) rotate downward by gravity as they are pivotally attached to the corners of the horizontal shields, thus completing the shielded beneath and on both sides of the visor.
