Abstract: A sun visor provided with a protective sun visor plate for the windshield of a vehicle whose protective sun visor plate is pivotally and axially displaceably supported on a horizontal mounting rod whereby the mounting rod is pivotally retained in a fixed bearing support about an approximately vertical axis by way of an angularly bent area; in order to obviate a separate displacement of the sun visor into its optimum axial position, when pivoting the sun visor in front of the window of the coordinated side door, provision is made according to the present invention that a lever which, on the one hand, is operatively connected with the protective sun visor plate and, on the other hand, is pivotally secured at the vehicle, is so arranged that during the pivoting of the mounting rod about the approximately vertical axis, an axial displacement of the protective sun visor plate on the mounting rod is automatically effected.
