Abstract
In some embodiments, a new add-on or factory installed shade panel assembly for a vehicle which creates improved lateral and vertical adjustments for sun blocking positions. Optional attaching methods are wrap around straps with Velcro™ ends, suction cups (for window attachment), or a concealed magnetic strip inside the visor which permits infinite lateral and vertical adjustment of 1 or 2 magnetic shade panels. In some embodiments, the shade panel assembly offers the advantage of precise tunable sun blocking for a low sun situation while still maintaining good vision of a traffic light and other vehicles. The proposed embodiments provide a new a low cost fabric type visor, which is durable, color coordinated, and fits all cars and sizes-left or right hand drive.
Claims18
A shade panel assembly, comprising:
- a support structure that connects to a vehicle sun visor;
- a lateral adjustment member that is laterally slidably connected to the support structure;
- and
- a vertically adjustable shade panel that is connected to the lateral adjustment member and wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel is vertically movable relative to the lateral adjustment member between a first position wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel extends substantially lower than the vehicle sun visor, and a second position wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel does not extend substantially lower than the vehicle sun visor.
A shade panel assembly, comprising:
- a support structure that removably connects to a vehicle sun visor;
- a laterally adjustable shade panel that is laterally slidably connected to the support structure and is positionable in a position wherein the laterally adjustable shade panel is at least partially laterally outside of the vehicle sun visor;
- and
- a vertically adjustable shade panel that is connected to the laterally adjustable shade panel and wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel is vertically movable relative to the laterally adjustable shade panel between a first position wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel extends substantially lower than the vehicle sun visor, and a second position wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel does not extend substantially lower than of the vehicle sun visor, wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel has a width that is less than a selected value.
A shade panel assembly, comprising:
- a support structure that connects to a vehicle;
- and
- a vertically adjustable shade panel that is connected to the support structure wherein the vertically adjustable shade panel is vertically adjustable relative to the support structure to position the vertically adjustable shade panel in a user-selected vertical position.
