Abstract
A visor system includes nested coaxial pivot couplings for multiple visor panels which can be substantially flat, planer bodies which are positioned in closely adjacent relationship to one another by the mounting brackets and pivot about a common pivot axis when so nested. In one embodiment, the pivot coupling comprises a semi-cylindrical member with at least one nesting semi-cylindrical or cylindrical pivot rod attached to the visor panels and which coaxially align along a single, longitudinal axis. In other embodiments, a solid pivot rod is employed and is mounted to a visor panel to include an exposed section for snap-receiving a semi-cylindrical pivot socket of another visor panel.
