characterized in that at least one of the driver (10) and of the optional cap comprises a housing (30) arranged to receive at least partly the pipe (2) in the following configuration: the pipe (2) comprises a curved portion (12) around the orifice (11), when the device is observed along the rotation axis (X) with the cap assembled on the driver (10), the curved portion (12) of the pipe (2) is set back from the outer contour (13) of the driver (10).

The windscreen wiper device includes a wiper blade that extends lengthwise in a longitudinal direction. A pre-curved carrier element with opposing lateral edges biases the wiper blade into a curved shape. At least one projection of a connector base is received in at least one notch of the carrier element for restricting relative longitudinal movement between the connector base and the carrier element. The connector base also at least one long locking arm and at least one short locking arm which engage around the lateral edges of the carrier element to lockingly connect the connector base with the carrier element. The at least one short locking arm has a lateral width which is less than the at least one long locking arm. The at least one short locking arm has a ramped lower surface for allowing the at least one short locking arm to snappingly engage the carrier element.

A mounting structure for a water blocking cap is adapted to a wiper device that includes a shaft holder and a water blocking cap. The shaft holder includes a stem and a fixed portion. The water blocking cap includes a mounting portion and a water receiver. One of the shaft holder and the water blocking cap includes a guide portion that moves the water blocking cap in a direction intersecting with the axial direction of the stem. In a mounted state in which the mounting portion is mounted to the stem, a part of the water receiver is arranged in a position that is closer to the proximal side of the stem than the fixed portion and in which the part overlaps with the fixed portion as viewed from the axial direction of the stem.

The invention is directed to a wiper arm arrangement comprising a wiper bar (10), a coupling unit (12) and a fastening unit (14) for securing the coupling unit (12) to the wiper bar (10). According to the invention, the coupling unit (12) has a crimped profile (16, 54) which, in a mounted state, is to be connected to a washer fluid hose (18).

Disclosed is a windscreen wiper device for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, comprising a fastening element fastened to a drive shaft. The windscreen wiper device comprises a wiper blade having an elongated upper part which is designed at least partially flexibly, an elongated lower part which is designed at least partially flexibly, and a plurality of connecting elements for connecting the upper part and the lower part, wherein the connecting elements are spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal extension of the wiper blade, and wherein the connecting elements are configured to enable a movement of the upper part and lower part relative to each other with a movement component along a longitudinal extension of the wiper blade. The windscreen wiper device further comprises a fastening part on the wiper blade side, wherein the fastening part on the wiper blade side can be connected to the fastening element in a detachable manner, and a coupling device, wherein the fastening part on the wiper blade side and the fastening element can be connected for conjoint rotation via the coupling device until a defined torque value is exceeded.

The present invention relates to a windscreen wiper device (100) for a vehicle, with a fastening element (52), in particular to a motor vehicle. The windscreen wiper device (100) comprises a mounting element (40) which is designed to be mounted on the fastening element (52), and a wiper blade (2) with an elongate upper part (10) and an elongate lower part (12), which are configured to be at least partially bendable. Furthermore, a plurality of connecting elements (18) for connecting the upper part (10) and the lower part (12) are provided, wherein the connecting elements (18) are spaced apart from one another along a longitudinal extent (8) of the wiper blade (2). The connecting elements (18) are designed to permit a movement of the upper part (10) and of the lower part (12) relative to one another with a movement component along a longitudinal extension (8) of the wiper blade (2). Furthermore, the wiper blade (2) comprises a wiper-blade-side fastening part (20). The wiper-blade-side fastening part (20) is configured in such a manner that, by means of a rotation of the wiper-blade-side fastening part (20) relative to the mounting element (40), an engagement can be formed in order to connect the wiper-blade-side fastening part (20) to the mounting element (40).
