  • Publication number: 20010024048
    Abstract: A sun visor assembly having a non-expanding adhesive. The sun visor is formed from a substantially flat foundation that is folded unto itself, thereby forming two foundation halves. The non-expanding adhesive, is applied to the foundation of the sun visor, and when the two portions are pressed together, the adhesive also comes into contact with the upholstery cover which is adhered to the peripheral edges of the foundation. The non-expanding adhesive adheres the two portions of the sun visor together, allowing for a sun visor assembly which is flexible enough to bend to accommodate the exertion of pressure thereon, yet rigid enough to function as desired.
