Abstract
A sun visor for vehicles with a flat, long body has been described. A bearing device makes it possible to fold the body from an unused position into a first use position and to swivel it into a second use position. The bearing device includes an axle journal projecting from a corner of the sun visor body, a bearing housing receiving the axle journal with a swiveling journal aligned at an angle to the axle journal, a drag-bearing housing receiving the swiveling journal which can be fasted to the vehicle body, and means to axially fasten the bearing housing to the axle journal and the drag-bearing housing to the swiveling journal.
