Abstract
A vehicle sun visor includes a support shaft; a sun visor body; an urging member that applies an urging force to the sun visor body; a damper that applies a damping force to rotational movement of the sun visor body when the sun visor body rotates to a stored position; and a damper operating portion that operates the damper. The damper operating portion includes a first operation element that rotates in conjunction with the sun visor body; a second operation element that converts rotational movement of the first operation element to linear movement; and a third operation element that is moved linearly via the second operation element. The damper is configured to be operated by linear movement of the third operation element in a prescribed range set between a use range and the stored position, when the sun visor body rotates to the stored position.
