A cleaning device for a surface, such as a windshield of a vehicle, has a housing that holds a spray bar, rotatable brush and a wiper blade. An engagement mechanism moves spray bar, the brush, and the wiper blade out from a disengaged position within the housing to an engaged position outside the housing so that they can be used to clean, brush, and dry the surface. After the spray bar, brush, and wiper blade are used to, respectively, clean, brush, and dry the surface, the engagement mechanism then moves the spray bar, the brush, and the wiper blade to a disengaged position within the housing.

A cleaning device for a surface, such as a windshield of a vehicle, includes an active positioning system and a cleaning head. The active positioning system is configured to deploy from a storage position hidden from view within a covered storage space and to position the cleaning head upon the windshield. The active positioning system includes a first extension member and a second extension member that move relative to one another to position the cleaning head, and also move the cleaning head across the windshield along a path. The cleaning head can have a brush portion configured to agitate debris from the window, and a drying portion configured to dry the window after cleaning. The cleaning device can be controlled via a touch-screen display in the vehicle, enabling a user to direct that specific portions of the windshield be cleaned as desired.

A wiper arm and assembly are disclosed. The wiper arm has a wiper arm holder, connected at one end to an output portion of a driving mechanism for the wiper arm that drives the wiper arm to swing back and forth in an outward-swinging direction, an extension arm pivotally connected to the other end of the wiper arm holder, a wiper arm end member located on the side of the wiper arm opposite to the wiper arm holder and configured to hold a wiper blade, and a washer assembly having at least a first nozzle, and a first conduit in fluid communication with the first nozzle. The first nozzle includes a nozzle unit, a first connector for the first conduit, and a bridge channel located between them, above the blade. The bridge channel is partially aligned with a segment of the wiper arm end member that is located above the blade.

A wiper device (10a-10c) is proposed comprising at least one wind deflector unit (12a-12c) and comprising at least one channel unit (18a-18c) integrated into the at least one wind deflector unit (12a-12c), and comprising at least one wiper blade adapter (20a-20c) which includes at least one adapter attachment (24a-24c) and at least one adapter base body (22a-22c) and is configured to be coupled to at least one wiper arm (110a-110c). It is proposed that the wiper device (10a-10c) comprise a fluid supply unit (38a-38c) which is configured to supply wiper fluid to the channel unit (18a-18c) and comprises at least one coupling end piece (40a-40c) for latching connection to the at least one adapter attachment (24a-24c).

An attachment for a wiper arm of a windscreen wiper of a vehicle, having a rod arm, comprises a fluid channel for conducting a fluid and a first dimensionally stable element, wherein a first fluid channel section is formed in the first dimensionally stable element. The attachment also comprises a second dimensionally stable element, wherein a second fluid channel section is formed in the second dimensionally stable element. A wiper arm including the attachment is also disclosed.

The invention relates to a wiper arm (10) for a wiper system of a vehicle, having a wiper arm element (12) which is configured for connecting, in an articulated manner, an attachment piece (20) coupled to a wiper shaft, wherein the wiper arm element (12) is coupled to an adapter element (18) for connecting to a wiper blade. Furthermore, it is provided that the wiper arm element (12) consists of two separate components (14, 16), namely a first component (14), which is connected to the adapter element (18), and a second component (16), which attaches to the first component (14) on the side facing away from the adapter element (18), and that the first component (14) is formed from a profile strip (37) having a U-shaped cross section, wherein the two components (14, 16) overlap in a longitudinal direction in a first connection area (24).

An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a first end of the wiper arm, and an output shaft coupled to a second end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade includes a fluid dispensing system including nozzles, a fluid control unit, fluid lines, fluid source, and a user interface. The wiper blade with the fluid dispensing system is configured to dispense a variety of fluids directly from the wiper blade onto the windshield of an aircraft.

A wiper lever (10) for cleaning a vehicle pane by means of a movement in a first and a second direction is proposed. Said wiper lever comprises a wiper blade (12), a wiper arm (14), an adapter (16) for securing the wiper blade (12) to the wiper arm (14) and a hydraulic system (18) which conducts a liquid from a vehicle to the wiper blade (12) via the wiper arm (14) in order to eject the liquid via nozzles (20) on the wiper blade (12). Said wiper lever comprises at least one nozzle (20) which is oriented in the first direction (1) and one nozzle (20) which is oriented in the second direction. According to the invention, a first valve (221) for the first direction is positioned closer to the nozzles (20) in the direction of flow (3) of the liquid than a second valve (222) for the second direction (2).
