Assembly for producing a motor vehicle windscreen wiping system and connection device including such an assembly
The invention concerns an assembly (1) for producing a motor vehicle windscreen wiping system (3), including an end fitting (5) of a wiper arm (7) adapted to move a wiper (9), a hydraulic and/or electrical connector (11) for feeding a liquid to the wiper and/or for heating the liquid, said end fitting (5) being configured to accept an adapter (13) allowing rotation between said arm (7) and the wiper (9), said end fitting (5) internally accepting said connector (11), said end fitting (5) being configured to engage said hydraulic and/or electrical connector (11), in an oriented manner relative to the end fitting (5), in a so-called service position, allowing the disconnection and/or the connection of the connector (11) on the arm (7).
Universal coupler assembly and wiper assembly incorporating the same
A universal coupler assembly for a wiper assembly includes a carrier adapted to be mounted to the wiper assembly and a saddle that is removably received and retained by the carrier. The saddle is slideably mounted in a side of the carrier and includes a locking mechanism to provide releasable engagement with the carrier. The carrier and saddle cooperate to accommodate various sizes of “pinch-type” wiper arm attachment members, “push-button-type” attachment members, as well as “side-pin-type” and “pin-and-bent-tab-type” attachment members that are used to connect the wiper arm and the wiper assembly.
Assembly of an arm head and of an adapter for a windscreen wiper system, corresponding adapter and corresponding arm head and wiper system obtained
The invention relates to an assembly (22) of an arm head T and of an adapter (2) for a vehicle windscreen wiper system, the said adapter (2) being configured so that a connector of a wiper of the wiper system can be mounted rotatably on the said adapter (2) by means of at least one flexible tongue (2b) of the adapter able to establish a pivot connection with the said connector, the said assembly (22) being configured to immobilize the said tongue (2b) after mounting the wiper in the arm head T.

Device for connecting a wiper blade to a drive arm for a vehicle
The invention relates to a connecting device (8) intended to join a wiper blade (4) to a driving arm (2) of a wiping system (1) for a vehicle, comprising at least one connector (9) and a cover (11) mounted in a rotatable manner on the connector (9), the connecting device (8) comprising at least one holding device (22) for holding the cover (11) on the connector (9) in at least one position, characterized in that the holding device (22) determines the position of the cover (11) on the connector (9), limiting the rotation of this cover (11) on the connector (9) in two directions of rotation (S1, S2).
Wiper apparatus having arrangement structure between wiper arm tip and vertebra
A wiper apparatus having an improved structure between a wiper arm tip and a vertebra includes a vertebra having a rod shape and providing elastic resilience to a wiper strip, a connector fixed to the vertebra; and a wiper arm detachably coupled to the connector. The position of the vertebra is above a lower end of an arm tip formed on a free end portion of the wiper arm.
Connecting device for connecting a wiper blade to a drive arm of a wiper system for a motor vehicle
Connecting device (2) for connecting a wiper arm (1) to a drive arm of a wiper system for a vehicle, comprising at least one connector (5) mounted pivotably relative to a drive arm and including means (20) forming a pivoting interface defining an axis of rotation (18), said connector (5) comprising a plurality of tabs (30) for mechanically connecting the connector to the wiper arm, characterized in that said pivoting interface is longitudinally offset relative to a transverse mid-plane (TMP) of the connecting device, and in that at least one tab is situated on either side of a transverse vertical interface plane (TP) comprising the axis of rotation (18) and parallel to the transverse mid-plane (TMP).
