Lightning strike protection for an aircraft windshield wiper system

An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a distal end of the wiper arm, and a drive shaft coupled to a proximal end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade is configured to clean water, dirt, and other debris from the windshield of the aircraft. The drive shaft is configured to rotate and cause the wiper arm with the coupled wiper blade to sweep across the windshield. The wiper arm includes both composite and metal components to reduce the weight of the windshield wiper system while also providing lightning strike protection.

Motor vehicle wiper and motor vehicle equipped therewith

A motor vehicle wiper has a wiper arm with a wiper blade and is in operative connection with a wiper shaft. The wiper arm is fastened on a bearing part that is movably supported on the wiper shaft.

Wiper system and a vehicle with such a wiper system

The present invention proposes a wiper system being capable of ensuring wiping quality for the windshields with complex surfaces. The wiper system comprises: a wiper arm (19), on which a wiper blade (12) for cleaning a surface (16) of an object to be cleaned is provided; a first electrical motor (1) driving the wiper arm (19) to swing; a second electrical motor (9); a sensor (13) measuring a parameter representing the position of the wiper arm on the object to be cleaned; a control unit (7) receiving said parameter from said sensor (13) and utilizing said parameter to control the rotation angle of the an output shaft (18) of the second electrical motor (9), such that the output shaft (18) drives rotate the wiper blade (12) under control to change the rotation angle of the central plane of the wiper blade with respect to the wiper arm. The present invention also proposes a vehicle comprising said wiper system.

A windshield wiper structure includes a fixing frame, a support plate, a blade and at least one pressing strip. The fixing frame includes a fixing base and a pivot disposed on the fixing base. The support plate is connected on a bottom side of the fixing base and extended oppositely from the fixing base. The blade is connected to a bottom surface of the support plate. The pressing strip is disposed on the bottom side of the fixing base and presses the blade toward a direction away from the fixing base to contact with a glass surface. Therefore, the blade may be uniformly pressed to contact with a glass surface to remove rain or debris from the glass surface.

A windshield wiper system (3, 3′) for wiping a windshield (2) of a vehicle (1) includes a wiper (4) mounted on a movable support element, a guiding device for guiding the support element along a predefined trajectory and a motor mounted on the support element and arranged for providing traction power to move the support element along the predefined trajectory. The wiper system is arranged to move the wiper (4), relative to the windshield, with a translation movement between first and second positions, and with a rotation movement around a rotation axis perpendicular to the windshield between the second position and a third position.

Windshield wiper with adaptable attack angle

A windshield wiper system includes a windshield wiper having a wiper blade with a near end and a far end. The windshield wiper is configured for performing a relative rotation of the wiper blade between the far end and the near end of the wiper blade. A mechanism applying a torque to the far end during a sweeping motion of the windshield wiper twists the far end of the wiper blade relative to the near end. The mechanism may perform the relative rotation of the wiper blade regardless of whether the wiper blade is in contact with a windshield. For example, the mechanism may include a stationary cam block having a cam profile, and an actuator arm moving along the cam profile with the sweeping motion of the windshield wiper. The cam profile is suitably shaped to pivot the actuator arm in laterally outer ranges of the sweeping motion.
