ABSTRACT:
A dual-visor assembly in which the inner and outer visors are capable of selective left-handed or right-handed actuation to suit a particular operator or operating condition. The inner-visor actuator comprises a lever arm that extends laterally beyond a side edge of the visor through one of a first pair of slots formed in the visor housing. A pin carrried by the arm is resiliently biased into engagement with a detented surface to lock the inner visor in a desired position. Preformed apertures on the left and right sides of the visor permit the actuator lever to be selectively secured to the desired side. The outer-visor actuator comprises a knob carried by a key that fits into either of a pair of keyholes formed on opposite sides of the outer visor. The knob extends through one of a second pair of slots formed in the visor housing at locations opposite the keyholes and is turned to clamp the visor housing to lock the outer visor at the desired position.
