A sun visor can be opened from a non-used position to an anti-glare
position. The visor can be pivoted from a first anti-glare position in
front of the windscreen to a second anti-glare position in front of a
lateral window of the vehicle. The visor body is guided by a guide device
in such a way that in each anti-glare position the same face of the body
faces the vehicle interior. The visor body is guided both by a guide rail
that is mounted on the roof liner and by an articulated arm that is
rotatably mounted on the sun visor body for pivoting from the first
anti-glare position to the second. The visor body can also be hinged for
pivoting from the first anti-glare position to the second by a pair of
articulated arms forming a four-bar mechanism with substantially vertical
axes of rotation relative to the roof liner.
