A windshield wiper assembly adapted to be mounted to the attachment portion of a wiper arm including a coupler assembly mounted to a wiper blade and serving to interconnect the wiper blade to the wiper arm. The coupler assembly includes a coupler having a body with a pair of sidewalls, a channel defined between the sidewalls and extending substantially parallel thereto. The channel is adapted to cooperatively receive the attachment portion of the wiper arm. A latching mechanism is operatively mounted to the body and movable between an open position spaced from the channel and a closed position disposed over the channel to secure the attachment portion of the wiper arm between the latching mechanism and the body thereby securing the coupler to the attachment portion of the wiper arm.

A coupling mechanism for interfacing between a wiper and a wiper arm comprises an connector and at least one width-adjusting spacer member. The connector has a body, and the two sides of the body are defined as the outer side walls. The body has a stopping portion formed at one end thereof, and an engaging member is formed on the top surface of the body. The width-adjusting spacer member is selectively arranged on the outer side walls of the body. Thus, the width of the coupling mechanism can be adjusted according to the user's demands, and thereby, enabling the wiper to be coupled to wiper arms having different specifications.

A nozzle unit 34 which jets washer fluid toward a windshield is fixed to an arm piece 33 whose front end side is fitted to a hook fixing member 23e. As a result, the nozzle unit 34 can be fixed without using the fitting member adopted in the conventional case, and located closer to the hook fixing member 23e. This reduces a positional shift of the nozzle unit 34 relative to the wiper blade 20 to the minimum, thus stabilizing the injection-target locations of washer fluid on the windshield.

A windscreen wiper device is provided comprising an elastic, elongated carrier element, and an elongated wiper blade of a flexible material. The wiper blade includes at least one longitudinal groove, in which a longitudinal strip of the carrier element is disposed. The windscreen wiper device comprises a connecting device for an oscillating arm that can be pivotally connected to the connecting device, about a pivot axis near one end, with the interposition of a joint part. The joint part is locked onto said oscillating arm and at least one laterally inwardly extending protrusion provided on the oscillating arm is snapped behind a wall of the joint part. The joint part is unlocked from the oscillating arm. The wall of the joint part is allowed to bend laterally inwardly in order to release the protrusion of the oscillating arm from the wall.
