Method and apparatus for a sun screening tool

Abstract

A sun screening tool that has an elongated directional mounting assembly with one end mounted to a stationary upright structure via a T-handled screw. The elongated directional mounting assembly pivots in the horizontal plane relative to the stationary upright structure. The elongated directional mounting assembly's other end has rotatably mounted in the vertical plane one end of a first substantially rectangular elongated member. The first substantially rectangular elongated member's other end has a substantially rectangular visor perpendicularly connected thereto. The elongated directional mounting assembly, in concert with the first substantially rectangular elongated member, enables positional adjustment of the visor in the horizontal and vertical planes relative to the stationary upright structure.

         8 ) An apparatus for a mountable, bi-directional, user operated, sun screening tool as recited in  claim 7  wherein said second substantially rectangular elongated member is selectively positioned in the horizontal plane relative to said elongated arm via said first position adjusting mechanism.  
     
     
         9 ) An apparatus for a mountable, bi-directional, user operated, sun screening tool as recited in  claim 8  wherein said first substantially rectangular elongated member rotatably mounted to said elongated directionally mounting assembly comprises: 
 a) said first substantially rectangular elongated member having one end juxtaposed one end of said second substantially rectangular elongated member;  
 b) a second position adjusting mechanism connecting said first substantially rectangular elongated member and said second substantially rectangular elongated member; and  
 c) said first substantially rectangular elongated member selectively positioned in the vertical plane relative to said second substantially rectangular elongated member via said second position adjusting mechanism.  
 
     
     
         10 ) An apparatus for a mountable, bi-directional, user operated, sun screening tool as recited in  claim 9  wherein said second position adjusting mechanism comprises: 
 a) a second elongated threaded member traversing said first substantially rectangular elongated member and said second substantially rectangular elongated member;  
 b) said second elongated threaded member secured at one end to said second substantially rectangular elongated member; and  
 c) said second elongated threaded member's other end having a second rotatable knob disposed thereto.  
 
     
     
         11 ) An apparatus for a mountable, bi-directional, user operated, sun screening tool as recited in  claim 1  wherein said T-handled screw comprises: 
 a) an elongated cylindrical member having one end forming point;  
 b) said elongated cylindrical member having an outer surface comprising lands and grooves formed along said elongated cylindrical member;  
 c) an elongated bar having a first end and a second end oppositely spaced from said first end;  
 d) said elongated cylindrical member's other end mountably disposed between said elongated bar's first and second ends;  
 e) an annular ring disposed about said elongated cylindrical member, said annular ring adjacently spaced from said elongated bar.  
 
     
     
         12 ) An apparatus for a mountable, bi-directional, user operated, sun screening tool as recited in  claim 11  wherein said substantially rectangular visor, comprises; 
 a) an elongated substantially rectangular bar having medially disposed thereto an outwardly projecting tang;  
 b) a substantially rectangular opaque member connected along one edge to said rectangular bar; and  
 c) at least two bolts with wing-nuts connecting said rectangular opaque member to said rectangular bar.  
 
     
     
         13 ) A method of positionally securing a mountable, bi-directional, user operated, sun screening tool, comprising the steps:
