The invention relates to an adapter for a wiper blade mounting, the adapter comprising a cover which can be releasably attached to a main bar of the mounting by a single rotational movement that allows form-closure engagement between the cover and the main bar. According to the invention, the cover comprises an angular indexing system for defining an axis of rotation of the cover, the angular indexing system cooperating with an opening in the main bar. The opening and the angular indexing system have an asymmetrical form in order to allow angular indexing of the cover relative to the main bar and, subsequently, mechanical coupling of the cover on the main bar. The invention is applicable to motor vehicles.

A wiper blade assembly is provided. The wiper blade assembly includes an adhering member, a lower member supporting the adhering member, an upper member spaced apart from the lower member by a predetermined gap, and pressing members coupled to the upper member and disposed between the upper member and the lower member. The elastic member is easily deformable during the operation of the wiper blade assembly.

Apparatuses and methods for removing ice from a windshield. A windshield wiper includes a wiper assembly, a scrubber assembly, and an engaging assembly. The wiper assembly includes a wiper support structure and a wiper blade attached to the wiper support structure. The scrubber assembly includes a scrubber support structure, an elongated scrubber element and a motor. The scrubber element is movably attached to the scrubber support structure and extends between a first end and a spaced apart second end along a central longitudinal axis. The scrubber element can have a hardness value sufficient to remove ice from the windshield. The motor is mounted to the scrubber support structure and is engaged with the scrubber element to move the scrubber element to remove ice. An engaging assembly can be coupled with the wiper assembly and the scrubber assembly to raise and lower the scrubber assembly with respect to the wiper assembly.

The present invention relates to a window-wiping device (100) for a vehicle, comprising a wiper blade (2) having an elongate upper part (10) and an elongate lower FIG. 1B part (12), which are designed to be at least partially flexible. Also provided is a plurality of connecting elements (18) for connecting the upper part (10) and the lower part (12), the connecting elements (18) being spaced apart along a longitudinal extent (8) of the wiper blade (2) and being attached to the upper part (10) and/or the lower part (12) by a rotary joint, and the connecting elements (18) being designed to allow a motion of the upper part (10) and the lower part relative to each other with a motion component along the longitudinal extent (8) of the wiper blade (2). The window-wiping device also has a wiper-blade-side fastening part (30), which is accommodated in the wiper blade head (70), and a fastening element (50), which can be attached to the drive shaft (33) and into which the wiper-blade-side fastening part (30) can be locked and which has an actuating device (21), which is designed to release the wiper-blade-side fastening part (30) from the fastening element (50) as a result of an actuation, wherein the actuating device (21) has a blocking element (22), which is designed to block actuation of the actuating device (21).

A wiper blade includes a wiper lever assembly with a tournament structure. The wiper lever assembly includes a main lever and a pair of movable covers. The two length direction sides of the main lever and the movable covers are respectively formed with fin surfaces each having a downward gradient on progression toward a vehicle front side, and main housing compartments and movable housing compartments that are open toward a wiping surface. A pair of yoke levers are respectively housed spanning inside the main housing compartments and inside the movable housing compartments, and are coupled so as to be capable of pivoting to the main lever and to the movable covers. The main housing compartments, the movable housing compartments, and the yoke levers each has a greater height dimension at a rear side than at a front side.

The invention relates to a windshield wiper device for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, having a fastening element fastened to a drive shaft. The windshield wiper device comprises a wiper blade having an elongate upper part, which is at least partially flexible, an elongated lower part, which is at least partially flexible, and a plurality of connecting elements for connecting the upper part and the lower part. Along a longitudinal extension of the wiper blade, the connecting elements are spaced apart from one another, wherein the connecting elements are designed to allow a movement of the upper part and the lower part relative to one another, by means of a movement component, along a longitudinal extension of the wiper blade. The windshield wiper device further comprises a fastening part on the wiper blade side, wherein the fastening part on the wiper blade side comprises a clamping device such that the fastening part on the wiper blade side can be adjusted to the dimension of at least part of the drive shaft.

The present invention relates to a wiper blade assembly including a primary lever, a secondary lever disposed to be adjacent to the primary lever, a secondary lever connecting structure coupled to the secondary lever, and a yoke member hinge-coupled to the secondary lever connecting structure, wherein the yoke member includes a claw portion, the claw portion being moved apart from the secondary lever and in the present invention, claw portions coupled to both ends of a contact member may be disposed in certain regions of yoke members and the yoke members may be moved apart from secondary levers such that the claw portions may be moved apart from the secondary levers to allow for improvements in the property of following the curvature of glass, thereby wiping performance of a wiper.
