A brushing system, including: a brush; and a hydraulic motor, for rotating the brush. The hydraulic motor is operable by pressurized water, and the pressurized water is administrable by outlets of the brush, thereby brushing of the brush is accompanied by the administrable water.

A wiper blade having a lever assembly and a spoiler integrated in the lever assembly. The wiper blade has a wiper rubber and the lever assembly holding the wiper rubber and being coupled to a wiper arm. The lever assembly has a plurality of levers, adjacent levers of which are hinge-jointed to each other. The lever of the lever assembly includes a spoiler portion forming a section of a spoiler integrated in the lever.

A hatchback door includes a load-bearing inner panel made of composite plastic material, a plastic top outer panel glued on a top portion of the inner panel, and a plastic bottom outer panel glued on a bottom portion of the inner panel. The top panel includes a first layer of transparent plastic material and a second layer of opaque plastic material or opaque paint. The opaque layer covers only some of the transparent layer such that the top panel is transparent in a central part overlying a rear-window opening of the inner panel and in its peripheral portions that function as transparent elements for two lateral sets of lights and a third top set of lights. The light sets are without a front transparent element and are connected to a rear side of the top panel. The transparent peripheral portions constitute the front transparent elements of the light sets.

The disclosure is a wiper structure. The main wiper frame includes a fixing seat. A pair of secondary wiper frames is connected to two ends of the main wiper frame. Each secondary wiper frame includes a flexible sheet. The flexible sheet is disposed with sliding troughs. A length of the sliding trough is greater than a width of the sliding trough. Multiple engaging frames are evenly disposed on each secondary wiper frame. Each engaging frame includes a pressing wing and a sliding block. The sliding block includes a neck bar with a passing diameter. The passing diameter is less than the trough width. The sliding block of each engaging frame passes through the opening and abuts against each sliding trough through the neck bar. The sliding block is slidable in each sliding trough with a change of an external force exerted on corresponding one of the secondary wiper frames.

An apparatus comprising a camera sensor and a processor. The camera sensor may be configured to generate a video signal based on a targeted view in a vehicle. The processor may be configured to receive one or more status signals from one or more sensors. The processor may be configured to detect a type of obstruction of a window of the vehicle visible in the video signal based on (i) a classification of information in the video signal and (ii) one or more of the status signals.

A method for programming a wiper system for operating a vehicle windscreen wiper where a wiper module on the driver's side is programmed as a master module and a wiper module on the passenger's side is programmed as a slave module. The wiper modules include a reversing motor, a gear, a holder, and a control. A program sequence, vehicle-specific characteristic data and data for the operation of the wiper module as master or slave module are stored in the control. The wiper module on the driver's side is connected via an on-board wiring system interface and a first data communication line with a vehicle control unit. Provision is made that before the activation of the wiper module on the driver's side via the first data communication line in its control the wiper module is defined or respectively pre-programmed neither as master module nor as slave module.

A sensor protection apparatus includes a first sensor cover movable between a sensor covering position and a first cover waiting position; a second sensor cover movable between the sensor covering position and a second cover waiting position, wherein each of the first and second sensor covers is located at the sensor covering position for protecting the surface of the sensor from being contaminated by foreign matter; and an actuator configured to move the first and second sensor covers such that the first sensor cover and the second sensor cover are alternately located at the sensor covering positions thereof.

A windshield wiper arm is provided on an outside of an aircraft and positioned to directly engage an air flow while the aircraft is traveling. The wiper arm includes an arm portion coupled to the aircraft and having an arm exterior surface, the arm portion extending along an arm axis and defining an arm length. A bead extends outwardly from the arm exterior surface and defines a bead exterior surface, the bead being sized sufficiently to engage a boundary layer of the air flow. A wiper blade is coupled to the arm portion. The bead prevents separation of the boundary layer from the arm exterior surface, thereby to attenuate shedding of vortices and associated vibrations and noise.

The invention relates to a fastening arrangement (10) comprising a wiper bearing (11) of a windscreen wiper arrangement of a vehicle. Said wiper bearing (11) comprises a bearing element (13) having a planar first side (28); a bearing section which protrudes from the first side (28) of the bearing element (13) for guiding a wiper shaft (12); one or more gripping elements (19a, 19b) which are arranged on the bearing section (13a) and respectively comprising a gripping surface which is arranged parallel to the surface of the first side (28) of the bearing element (13).
