Conventionally, a sun visor 100 having a pocket portion 101 as shown in FIG. 5 is known. As shown in this figure, the sun visor 100 includes a pad material 120 in which an annular frame 110 made of a wire is embedded, a sun visor body 140 composed of a skin 130 covering the pad material 120, and the sun visor body 140. And a stay 150 provided at one of the upper corners. The stay 150 is for attaching the sun visor body 140 to the ceiling of the vehicle interior.
[0003]
The skin 130 is composed of a front skin 131 and a back skin 132 made of a soft synthetic resin web. The sun visor main body 140 is joined by a so-called welder process in which edges are welded by irradiating the outer peripheral edges of both skins 131 and 132 with a high frequency while the pad material 120 is sandwiched between these skins 131 and 132. Has been formed.
[0004]
The pocket portion 101 is formed by welding a synthetic resin web piece 103 cut into a rectangular shape to a substantially central portion of the back surface skin 132 by a welder process. Specifically, the web piece 103 is disposed on the back surface skin 132 in a horizontally long state, and three edge portions except for the right side are welded by a welder process. By doing so, a pocket 101 having an opening 102 that opens toward the right is provided in a substantially central portion of the back surface skin 132.
