ABSTRACT:
A foldable windshield assembly includes a windshield support having opposing pairs of upper and lower pillar supports, an upper windshield member connected to the upper pillar supports, and a lower windshield member connected to the lower pillar supports. A hinge is disposed between the opposing pairs of upper and lower pillar supports. The hinge includes a first connector adapted to be rigidly connected to one of the upper or lower pillar supports, a second connector adapted to be slidably connected within the other of the upper or lower pillar supports, and a knuckle having ends pivotally connected to the first connector and the second connector and adapted to be received within one of the upper or lower pillar supports associated with the second connector. The upper windshield member is moveable between use and folded positions by separating the upper pillar from said lower pillar to reveal said knuckle from one of the upper or lower supports and folding the upper windshield member over the lower windshield member.
