ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a personal sun shield device for attachment directly to the facial area of the wearer. The shield has a primary shield member preferrably positionable immediately above the wearer's line of vision and a lower shield member which extends downward from the primary shield member to provide a slot such that the wearer's line of vision is through the slot between the primary shield member and the lower shield member. The lower shield member can be folded upward to reside in abutting position immediately behind the primary shield member so that the wearer has the option of using or not using the lower shield member. The primary shield member attaches to the face of the wearer by means of suction cups or two-sided tape preferrably in the area of the wearer's temples. This direct attachment allows the wearer to manipulate the primary shield member slightly upward or downward by means of merely raising or lowering his brow. The attachment means are mounted to support members which connect to the primary shield member in a hinge fashion. This allows the positioning of the primary shield member to and about the face of the wearer such that the hinged connections become the furthermost ends of the shield device when the shield is worn. This hinged connection of the attachment means reduces the amount of stress placed on the attachment means when the shield is being worn, thus preventing the flexible nature of the primary shield from prying the attachment means from the facial area of the wearer.
