The window-wiping device (2; 28, 30; 74; 78) comprises an elongated upper part (10), which is at least partially bendable, an elongated lower part (12), which is at least partially bendable, and a plurality of connecting elements (18) for connecting the upper part (10) and the lower part (12), wherein the connecting elements (18) are spaced apart along a longitudinal extension (8) of the wiper blade (2), wherein the connecting elements (18) are designed to enable motion of the upper part (10) and the lower part in relation to each other having a motion component along a longitudinal extension (8) of the wiper blade (2), wherein the connecting elements are connected to the lower part (12) and the upper part (10) by means of rotational joints, and wherein the upper part and the lower part are connected to a connection piece.

The invention concerns a windscreen wiper device (2; 28, 30; 74; 78) for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle. The windscreen wiper device (2; 28, 30; 74; 78) comprises an elongate upper part (10) which is designed to be at least partially flexible. It further comprises an elongate lower part (12) which is designed to be at least partially flexible. Further present are a plurality of connection elements (18) for connecting the upper part (10) and the lower part (12), the connection elements (18) being disposed at spacings from each other along a longitudinal extension (8) of the windscreen wiper device (2; 28, 30; 74; 78) and secured to the lower part (12) by means of swivel joints (20; 122, 130).

A cleaning system includes an arm configured for connection to a cleaning implement. A base is spaced from the arm in an extension direction such that the cleaning implement is positionable between the arm and the base. The base and the arm are configured to move together in the extension direction between a recessed position and a raised position relative to a surface, and the arm is configured to rotate relative to the base in the raised position.

A semiconductor device including an abnormality detection section that detects an abnormality occurring in a moving body that moves along a specific path on a surface of a specific object; a position detection section that detects a position of the moving body as an abnormality occurrence position, in a case in which the abnormality detection section has detected an abnormality, and that stores abnormality occurrence position information expressing the abnormality occurrence position in a storage section; and a moving body controller that controls an adjusting section to adjust at least one of a force with which the moving body presses against the specific object, or a position of the moving body in a direction intersecting the surface of the specific object, based on a detection result detected by the abnormality detection section and the abnormality occurrence position information.
