Abstract
The invention concerns the swivel bearing of a sun visor for an automotive vehicle. The swivel bearing connects the body of the sun visor with a mounting shaft for the sun visor. A protective housing comprised of injection molded plastic surrounds the swivel bearing housing. The protective housing is a single piece comprised of two halves which are hinged together along one edge and are clipped together at their opposite edge to surround the swivel bearing housing. The exterior of the protective housing is profiled so that all edges, corners and any other deformed part thereof has an outer contour radius of at least 3.2 mm. for eliminating sharp edges at the swivel bearing. The protective housing has an interior contour adapted to the outer contour of the swivel bearing housing.
