ABSTRACT:
A visor system includes a visor panel and guide for movably mounting the visor panel above the headliner of a vehicle. The guide includes an exit through which the visor panel extends when moved from a stored position above the headliner to a use position. The visor assembly further includes a pivot rod mounted near the exit for selectively engaging pivot rod engaging structure on the visor panel only when the visor panel is extended. One of the visor pivot rod engaging structure or pivot rod includes a torque control for providing a controlled torque for pivoting and holding the visor between selected use positions once extended. The pivot rod engaging structure decouples from the pivot rod as the visor is again retracted into the stored position.
