In a sun visor for vehicles, the sun visor body has a recess in its middle region of its upper longitudinal edge. A bearing device is disposed in the recess. The bearing device has an axle body with trunnions that engage the inside of the sun visor body and a detent spring that clamps the axle body. The bearing device also has a bearing housing for receiving the detent spring, for receiving the axle body, and for receiving an adapter that can be fastened to the vehicle body. The adapter, fixed to the bearing housing via clip fastenings, carries the bearing device and the sun visor body which is joined to the bearing device in hinged fashion via the axle body.
