BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automobile sun visor, and more particularly to an automobile sun visor with an auxiliary visor which can appropriately change a light shielding area.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, a sun visor is provided above a front window of an automobile to shield direct sunlight and secure a passenger's traveling view. Although the sun visor is positioned and used substantially parallel to the front window, the light blocking area of the sun visor cannot be set so large so as not to obstruct the occupant's front view. Therefore, sunlight rays entering from the gap a between the sun visor body 1 and the room mirror 2 in FIG.
The sunlight rays entering from the gap c between the sun visor body 1 and the front pillar 3 and the sunlight rays entering from the lower part b of the sun visor body 1 when the morning and evening sunlight is long cannot be reliably blocked.

Therefore, a sun visor provided with an auxiliary visor to increase the light shielding area has been proposed (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-110616). Its outline is shown in Figure 8
As shown in (a), the auxiliary visor 4 is connected to the sun visor body 1.
In the state where the click stopper 5 is retracted, the click stopper 5 enters the locking hole 6 located on the back side, and in this state, the auxiliary visor 4
Are held in the sun visor body 1. Then, the end of the auxiliary visor 4 is picked out from this state, and the sun visor body 1 is picked up.
When pulled out further, the click stopper 5 enters the lower locking hole 6 as shown in FIG. 8B and is held in a state of protruding below the sun visor body 1.

[0004]

However, in the sun visor having such a structure, the light shielding area can be changed only in two steps. For example, when it is desired to increase the light shielding area slightly more than the area of the sun visor body 1, When the auxiliary visor 4 is pulled out, an appropriate light-shielding area cannot always be obtained, for example, the enlargement of the light-shielding area leads to a disadvantage of obstructing the front view. Further, in such a slide type sun visor, a guide mechanism or the like for guiding the auxiliary visor 4 on both sides of the auxiliary visor 4 is inevitably required, and there is a problem that the structure becomes complicated accordingly. The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problem, and has as its object to provide a sun visor for an automobile with an auxiliary visor having a simple structure and capable of changing a light shielding area stepwise. .

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a sun visor for an automobile with an auxiliary visor according to the present invention has a sun visor body having at least one opening, and is rotatable and can be pulled out from the opening. In a sun visor for a vehicle with an auxiliary visor comprising an auxiliary visor stored in a sun visor body and an engaging means for holding the auxiliary visor at an appropriate position, the engaging means is provided on the auxiliary visor. It comprises a lock pin and a guide rib having a sawtooth shape provided at a position where the lock pin is engaged with the lock pin.

Further, the end of the guide rib is formed in a U-shape.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the engaging means is constituted by the lock pin provided on the auxiliary visor and the saw-shaped guide rib, so that the amount of the auxiliary visor that can be pulled out can be set arbitrarily in a stepwise manner. A large light-shielding area can be obtained. In addition, since the ends of the guide ribs are formed in a U-shape, the auxiliary visor can be securely locked.
