Abstract: A sun visor for use in a vehicle is disclosed. The sun visor includes a first and second visor body shell. The shells define a retaining channel for a slider on a visor pivot rod and may be engaged and enclosed about the slider. It is also contemplated that the sun visor has a combination slider and detent slidably supported in channels molded into the first and second visor shells. A support arm may be provided and is readily offset from the combination slider and detent and is slidable relative thereto.

Abstract: A sun visor or other accessory for a motor vehicle. The sun visor includes a body made of rigid foam in which various structures (such as a support pin, detent and pivot arm) are insert molded. The foam has a rigidity which is sufficient to support said sun visor without requiring any additional reinforcing structures such as a support frame, support wire or centerboard. The pivot arm and detent are provided within a casing that prevents the foam from affecting the operation of the detent. Also insert molded into the body of the visor are mounts for an illuminated vanity. Terminals from a power supply are mounted in predetermined positions relative to the body so that when the vanity is mounted to the body, contacts coupled to a lamp and mounted to the vanity in predetermined positions, are caused engage the terminals.

Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle interior compartment security shade assembly. The device of this invention enables a security shade to be deployed to various extended positions in use. This capability allows the shade to cover portions of the motor vehicle interior cargo compartment while leaving other portions uncovered to accommodate large carried items. The plural park positions for the shade also eliminate the requirement of full retraction and extension each time the shade position is changed. The various embodiments describe alternate approaches toward providing the features of the invention. Including devices incorporating laterally extending tracks having diverging sections which provide stop position for the shade and other embodiments and another embodiment including an actuated ledge mechanism for the shade pull tube.
