However, it is not suitable for other vehicles. The innovation therefore proposes a universal sun visor

as additional glare protection for all motor vehicles and the like.

This is achieved according to the innovation, that with an additional -

sun visor consisting of a torsion-resistant, padded body surrounded by a casing, in which a metallization layer made of ferromagnetic or permanent magnetic plate is provided between the body and the casing on at least one of the two large surfaces, which is held to the vehicle by magnetic force,

a U-shaped recess is provided in the cover, which extends from top to bottom over the green part of the body and can be separated along a pre-punched dividing line. The sides of the recess are bevelled at an angle of approximately 3 ^° - 40°, while the other large surface side of the body has a flatter recess. The casing of the additional sun visor is made of washable plastic. At least one pocket is provided on the side of the casing, into which a plastic extension part is inserted. This innovation can now be used for all vehicles that have the interior rear-view mirror attached to the roof liner or to the windscreen.

The invention will now be described in more detail using an embodiment in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. They show:

Figure 1 shows the innovation, seen from outside the windshield. Normal sun visors are clearly arranged on the right and left. In the middle there is an interior rear-view mirror, and an additional sun visor arranged between the interior rear-view mirror and the windshield, which is attached here using a permanent magnet, for example. This arrangement is explained in more detail in Figures 2 and 3.

Figure 2 shows a perspective top view of the innovation. Figure 3 shows a perspective top view with two extension parts inserted into pockets.

In the non-scale example, you can see a body 1 that can be made of a rigid but lightweight, e.g. porous foam material.

This body is surrounded by a casing 2, which preferably consists of a washable, flexible, light and radiation-insensitive plastic material, for example polyvinyl chloride. The casing can be strengthened, for example, by welding. Between the body 1 and the casing 2, a metallic layer 3 is provided below a recess 4 in the body, which can consist of either a magnetizable or a permanently magnetic material. The casing 2 of the body can be separated at the inner, U-shaped, punched-out dividing line 5. In addition, at least one tab 6 is provided for an insertable extension part 7. If the metallization layer is made of magnetizable material, a permanent magnet 8 (Fig. 1) is arranged on the vehicle, preferably on the windshield, which is covered by the interior rearview mirror and is attached, for example, by gluing. If the metallization layer is made of a permanent magnet, the sun visor can be attached either to the interior rearview mirror or to a magnetizable film attached to the windshield.

The innovation has improved the already known additional sun visor so significantly that it now appears to be suitable for almost all types of vehicles.
