  • Patent number: 4974655
    Abstract: Foldable sun shades, for interior use at windshields and the like, where the quadrilateral plane of such shades, formed through the combination of its' angled upper and lower margins and its' folding panels, which are jointed to each other at angled longitudinal fold lines, are sectionally and compositely constructed in trapezium and/or trapezoid configurations. Employment of the embodied trapezium compositions will produce contoured sun shades with superior symmetry, as this geometric structure takes the aspects of horizontal and vertical windshield glass curvatures into account.
