ABSTRACT:
A visor control having an elongated elastically deformable clamp of U-shaped cross-section with sides contacting a cylindrical pivot rod to hold the visor in position. The pivot rod has noncontinuous flats broken by lobes which align with recesses formed in the sides of the clamp. The sides of the clamp engage the edges of the flats as the rod is rotated within the clamp to provide a torque on the pivot rod as the sides abut the edge of the flats to provide snap-up action to move and hold the visor in a stored position. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the rod includes a plurality of alternately staggered flats and lobes with the lobes positioned to selectively align with recesses in the sides of the clamp.
