The invention relates to a toothed wheel (116) for a gear motor (10) of a window wiper, in particular of a motor vehicle, this wheel having a central member (120, 128) defining an axis of rotation A and two opposite substantially parallel faces, a first of said faces including an orifice (124) having an axis B and intended to receive a pin (26) of a linkage (38) of the gear motor, characterized in that it comprises, on said first face, abutment means (128a, 154a) in an axial direction and/or in a radial direction relative to axis A and means (128a, 154a, 152a) for guiding sliding in a circumferential direction about the axis A, said abutment and guide means being configured to cooperate with said pin during the assembly of the toothed wheel with the linkage in order to facilitate the insertion of the pin into the orifice.
Motor with speed reduction mechanism
A motor includes a motor unit, a speed reduction mechanism, a motion conversion mechanism, and a housing. The motion conversion mechanism converts rotary motion of the speed reduction. mechanism into reciprocating rotary motion and transmits the motion to an output shaft. The speed reduction mechanism includes a worm, a first gear, and a second gear. The worm is disposed on a rotation shaft of the motor unit. The first gear transmits rotation of the worm and rotates about a first shaft. The second gear receives rotation of the first gear and rotates about a second shaft. The motion conversion mechanism includes a rotary member and a rod. The rotary member includes a sector gear and rotates about an axis of the first shaft. The rod couples the second gear and the rotary member. The output shaft includes an output gear that engages the sector gear.
Vehicle wiper control device and vehicle wiper control method
Disclosed is a vehicle wiper control device which includes: wiper blades that can be disposed on a surface to be wiped and that perform a reciprocating wiping motion between a lower reversal position and an upper reversal position which are set on the surface to be wiped; an electric motor that reciprocates the wiper blades on the surface to be wiped; a drive portion that drives the electric motor; and a load calculation portion that calculates a load on the electric motor while the wiper blades wipe from the upper reversal position to the lower reversal position. If the calculated load value exceeds a predetermined threshold, the drive portion performs wiper stop processing for stopping the wiper blades at the lower reversal position or at a storage position which is set below the lower reversal position.
Wiper device
A wiper device that includes: a first control section that, during intermittent operation, controls power supply to a drive source such that a wiper blade wipes to-and-fro between a first return position and a second return position on a windshield and stops moving for a predetermined duration at the first return position, and that performs position retention control that controls power supply to the drive source such that the stopped wiper blade is retained at a position at which the wiper blade is stopped; and a second control section that suspends the position retention control by the first control section in a case in which a current flowing in the drive source is detected to have increased by a predetermined value or greater while the wiper blade moves toward the first return position within a predetermined region in a vicinity of the first return position.
VEHICLE WIPER CONTROL DEVICE AND VEHICLE WIPER CONTROL METHOD
Disclosed is a vehicle wiper control device which includes: wiper blades that can be disposed on a surface to be wiped and that perform a reciprocating wiping motion between a lower reversal position and an upper reversal position which are set on the surface to be wiped; an electric motor that reciprocates the wiper blades on the surface to be wiped; a drive portion that drives the electric motor; and a load calculation portion that calculates a load on the electric motor while the wiper blades wipe from the upper reversal position to the lower reversal position. If the calculated load value exceeds a predetermined threshold, the drive portion performs wiper stop processing for stopping the wiper blades at the lower reversal position or at a storage position which is set below the lower reversal position.
Wiper device
A wiper device is provided. A boost control unit, if a duty ratio has reached an upper limit value determined in advance, and if the rotational speed of a motor is less than a target rotational speed, varies an advance angle and an energization angle associated with the energization of the motor in accordance with the target rotational speed. An overtemperature protection unit monitors a load state of the motor, and, upon detecting a high-load state, performs a first protection control for decreasing the rotational speed of the motor. A demagnetization protection unit, upon receipt of an operating signal from a wiper switch when the temperature detected by means of a temperature sensor exceeds a first threshold and the first protection control is being performed, performs a second protection control for fixing the advance angle and energization angle of the motor by prohibiting the operation of the boost control unit.
REVERSIBLE MOTOR CONFIGURED WITH MOTION STOPS FOR AIRCRAFT WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEM
