ABSTRACT:
A transparent automobile anti-glare visor comprising a sheet of tinted and/or polarized plastic, generally rigid, clamps to secure the sheet pivotally and removably to the conventional opaque sun visor, and connecting devices to join the transparent sheet to the clamps. The clamps are one-piece U-shaped springy material, engagable on the edge of the conventional sun visor, with one tongue struck forwardly from one leg to press against the conventional visor, and bearings and a second tongue struck from the other leg so that a round rod can enter the bearings and be pressed upon by the second tongue, to restrain pivoting of the rod. The connecting devices may be integrally molded with the transparent visor, or may be separately formed with bifurcated body parts that straddle the edges and are connected to the plastic sheet. In either case, they provide the integral round rods that enter the bearings of the clamps. Flats on the rods provide greater stability in at least one position of adjustment. Radial extensions on the rod ends limit inadvertent withdrawal of the clamps from the rods.
