ABSTRACT:
The body of a sun visor is reinforced with a generally rectangular wire frame. At one corner of the frame is an injection-molded plastic mounting housing molded on the reinforcing frame and that housing receives the mounting shaft for supporting the visor in a vehicle. The wire frame has separated ends which extend past each other and this region of the frame is disposed in an injection molding cavity in which the mounting housing is to be molded. A U-shaped spring is also placed in the injection molding cavity and its side arms extend past the wire frame. A peg in the mounting housing extending through the spring defines the opening in the molded housing past the spring in which the mounting shaft for the visor is received. With the region of the frame and the spring in place in the injection mold for the mounting housing, moldable plastic is injected into the cavity of the mold and the mounting housing is directly molded to the reinforcing frame and the spring.
