ABSTRACT:
A positioning system which is used for positioning a sun visor extension or other element, comprises a star member having a hub with a plurality of radially extending circumferentially spaced resilient vanes connected thereto. A channel member having a pair of elongated parallel walls frictionally receives the star member and is in frictional contact with at least some of the vanes. This permits the star member to be slid along the channel member. The star member can also rotate with respect to the channel member through the slight bending of the vanes which are in contact with the walls. A bore extends through the hub for receiving the elongated arm of a paddle shaped visor extension. With the channel connected to the sun visor of a vehicle, the paddle extension can be translated and rotated into any desired position.
