A visor () has a visor core () with a channel () for receiving a polymeric slide () fixedly coupled to a visor pivot rod () via a detent spring () to allow the visor to be adjustably moved along and rotated around the pivot rod.

Sliding visor

A visor for vehicles includes an elbow member having an elongated portion, and a body member having an elongated slot defining a sidewall. The elongated slot extends generally parallel to the elongated portion of the elbow member. The body member is pivotably mounted to the elbow member for rotation about the elongated portion. A torque control member rotatably engages the elbow member, and has at least one finger received in the elongated slot. The finger is resiliently biased into engagement with the sidewall of the elongated slot, and frictionally engages the sidewall to provide controlled sliding movement of the body member relative to the elbow member.
