Abstract: A component connecting structure includes a first component having a flange portion, a second component having a flange portion, and a clip for holding the flange portions in a butted state. The clip formed into a generally polygonal shape has a spring body having first and second circumferential end portions overlapped with each other in a diameter reduced free state. The spring body has slits for inserting the flange portions butted against each other in the diameter reduced free state. The first and second circumferential end portions have a temporary engaging protrusion and a temporary engaging ledge, respectively. The temporary engaging ledge is engaged with the temporary engaging protrusion to hold a diameter expanded state of the spring body.

Abstract: A sun visor includes a sun-visor body, an auxiliary visor, a sub-plate and a spring. The auxiliary visor is attached to the sun-visor body slidably. The sub-plate is attached to the auxiliary visor to slide between a first position where the auxiliary visor receives the sub-plate and a second position where the sub-plate is withdrawn from the auxiliary visor. The spring urges the sub-plate toward the second position. The spring includes a base and two arm portions continuous to the base. The center portion of a spring wire forms the base of the spring. The two arm portions are bent to cross each other. A center portion of the base is convex toward an intersection of the two arm portions. The base abuts against one of the auxiliary visor and the sub-plate. The two arm portions abut against the other to urge the other elastically.
