Abstract

The disclosure concerns a sun visor for a vehicle and concerns various ways in which a piece of covering material is clamped in place over the exterior of the sun visor body. In all embodiments, the border of the piece of material is clamped in a groove in the sun visor body. The groove may be around the periphery. Alternatively, the visor body is comprised of two facing plates and the material is clamped between the plates. Pins on one plate may hold the material in place. Various clamping devices for clamping the border of the material between the plates are disclosed, including simply clamping the two plates together with the material between them, a mortise and tenon joint at the borders of the plates, a reinforcing strip between the plates which clamps the border of the material and the material having a drawstring around its hem for pulling the border tightly into the visor body.
