Abstract
A sunvisor for a vehicle which includes a sunvisor shell. A gear drive mechanism drivingly engages at least one rack within the shell to move the shell in response to rotation of the gear drive mechanism. The sunvisor also includes at least one boot extending from a boot arm. A guide support structure is provided on the shell for each boot, each guide support structure including a slot therein having a flared circular opening upon at least one end of the slot, so that the shell will move linearly while the boot is in the slot and the shell will move radially when the boot is in one of the flared circular openings in response to rotation of the gear drive mechanism.
