Abstract:

A visor for a billed type hat having a holder (20) of similar configuration to the periphery of the bill with a lens (40) distending at right angles downward in front of the bill covering the wearers eyes. A socket (26) within the holder (20) rotatably connected to a link (50) provides vertical movement and a jaw (58) is further rotatably attached to the link (50). The jaw also contains a pair of fingers (64) that springingly separate to grasp the bill of a cap near the crown. The device rotates upward from the cap and, through friction of the rotating members, remains in the elevated position at the wearers option.
