Gemäß den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 3 besteht das Federelement aus zwei parallel zueinander verlaufenden Befestigungsabschnitten, wobei sich an einen ersten Befestigungsabschnitt der Nocken anschließt, dem eine Ausbuchtung gegenüberliegt, während sich an diese ein zweiter Befestigungsabschnitt an schließt. Im Bereich der Ausbuchtung ist dabei das Ende eines elektrischen Leiters vorgesehen, an dem das Federelement in Ruhelage federnd an liegt.According to the features of claim 3, the spring element consists of two mutually parallel fastening sections, with each other a first fastening section of the cams connects to which a bulge lies opposite, while a second fastening section adjoins this closes. In the area of the bulge there is the end of an electrical conductor provided, on which the spring element rests resiliently in the rest position.
Darüber hinaus liegt am Endbereich des zweiten Befestigungsabschnitts des Fe derelements das andere Ende des elektrischen Leiters an (Merkmale des Patent anspruchs 4).In addition, lies at the end region of the second fastening section of the Fe derelements the other end of the electrical conductor (features of the patent claims 4).
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden erläutert. Es zeigt:An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing and is in following explained. It shows:

Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Sonnenblende 1 ist am oberen, innenliegenden Randbe reich der Fensteröffnung der Windschutzscheibe eines Personenkraftwagens über ein Drehlager 2 (nur teilweise dargestellt) und ein Gegenlager 3 schwenkbar gela gert. Ferner ist die Sonnenblende 1 mit einem Spiegel 5 versehen, der bedarfs weise durch eine in den Richtungen des Doppelpfeils a verschiebbare Abdeckung 6 abdeckbar ist. Darüber hinaus ist der Spiegel 5 durch eine nicht dargestellte Be leuchtungseinrichtung beleuchtbar, die sich im Blendenkörper 10 befindet. Die mit der Fahrzeugelektrik in elektrischer Verbindung stehende Beleuchtungseinrichtung wird durch ein am Blendenkörper 10 zungenartig befestigtes Federelement 7 ein- und ausgeschaltet, das hierzu mit dem zugewandten Eckbereich 6′ der Abdeckung 6 zusammenwirkt.The sun visor 1 shown in Fig. 1 and is at the upper, inner Randbe the window opening area of the windscreen of a passenger car by a pivot bearing 2 (only partially shown), a thrust bearing 3 pivotally gela device. Furthermore, the sun visor 1 is provided with a mirror 5 , which can be covered as needed by a cover 6 which can be displaced in the directions of the double arrow a. In addition, the mirror 5 can be illuminated by a lighting device, not shown, which is located in the diaphragm body 10 . The lighting device which is in electrical connection with the vehicle electrics is switched on and off by a spring element 7 which is fastened in a tongue-like manner on the diaphragm body 10 and which cooperates with the facing corner region 6 'of the cover 6 for this purpose.
Wie in den Fig. 1 und 2 ersichtlich, führen zu dem aus Federstahl bestehenden Federelement 7 die Endabschnitte des von der Fahrzeugelektrik gespeisten elek trischen Leiters 8 und 8′. Ferner hat das Federelement 7 einen zu einem Eckbe reich 6′ der Abdeckung 6 weisenden Nocken 7′ und eine diesem gegenüberlie gende Ausbuchtung 7′′. Dabei steht vom Nocken 7′ ein erster Befestigungsab schnitt 7′′′ und von der Ausbuchtung 7′′ ein zweiter Befestigungsabschnitt 7′′′′ ab, die parallel zueinander verlaufen. Über die beiden Befestigungsabschnitte 7′′′ und 7′′′′ ist das Federelement 7 am Blendenkörper 10 durch die Schrauben 12 be festigt. Ferner steht mit dem Endbereich des zweiten Befestigungsabschnitts 7′′′′ ein Kontaktteil 11 des elektrischen Leiters 8 in elektrischer Verbindung, während an einem Kontaktteil 11′ des elektrischen Leiters 8 die Ausbuchtung 7′′ des Feder elements 7 in dessen Ruhelage b federnd an liegt.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, the end portions leading to the existing spring steel spring element 7 of the fed by the vehicle's electrical elec trical conductor 8 and 8 '.
