The invention relates to a windshield wiper device (100) for a vehicle, comprising a wiper blade (2) having an elongated upper part (10) and an elongated lower part (12), which are configured to be flexible, at least in part. Furthermore, the device comprises a plurality of connecting elements (18) for connecting the upper part (10) and the lower part (12), said connecting elements being spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal extension (8) of the wiper blade (2) and being configured to allow a movement of the upper part (10 and the lower part relative to one another with a motion component along a longitudinal extension (8) of the wiper blade (2). A spoiler (19) is attached to at least one connecting element (18) in such a way that when there is an incident flow at the spoiler (19) the wiper blade (2) is pressed against a pane (4) of the vehicle.

A wiper assembly includes a housing and a blade coupled to the housing. A windshield wiper apparatus includes a glass panel and the wiper assembly selectively movable relative to the glass panel. A method of reusing the wiper assembly includes the housing and the blade. The blade includes a first edge portion disposed along a first side of the blade and a second edge portion disposed along a second side of the blade. The first edge portion and the second edge portion are reversible relative to the housing such that one of the first and second edge portions is disposed in a use position and the other one of the first and second edge portions is disposed in a storage position.

A squeegee blade holder system is disclosed that includes a squeegee blade holder comprising a first elongated recess on a front side of the squeegee blade holder for receiving a pivoting clamp bar in communication with a squeegee blade, and a second elongated recess on the front side of the squeegee blade holder for receiving a push bar for urging the pivoting clamp bar to capture the squeegee blade between the pivoting clamp bar and the front side of the squeegee blade holder.

A windscreen wiper blade includes a blade body, a blade rubber, and a yoke. The blade body includes first and second locks. The yoke is made of a metal plate and includes a first extension and a blade rubber retainer. The first extension has a fitting bead which the first lock engages. The blade rubber retainer extends from the first extension and retains the blade rubber. The yoke also includes second and third extensions. The second extension extends away from the blade rubber from an end of the first extension located away from the fitting bead. The third extension has a locking hole in which the second lock is fit and extends toward the blade rubber from an end of the second extension located away from the first extension. The yoke includes a burned portion defining a boundary between the second and third extension. The second and third extensions overlap.

A conventional vehicle wiper does not allow the longitudinal size after packaging to be made smaller than the length of the wiper, and thus there is a limit to the reduction of transport cost and storage cost by size reduction. A vehicle wiper according to the present invention includes a blade rubber that wipes a windshield; a leaf spring that uniformly presses the blade rubber against the windshield; a frame that integrally supports the blade rubber and the leaf spring; and a clip that couples the frame to a wiper arm, wherein the frame is made up of first and second frames, the leaf spring is made up of first and second leaf springs, the first and second leaf springs contained in the first and second frames, respectively, and the first and second frames are coupled to opposite sides of the clip, respectively, and the blade rubber is adapted to be attached finally. Also, the first and second frames containing the first and second leaf springs, respectively, the clip, and the blade rubber are packed into a single package in a divided state at the factory.

A wiper blade for cleaning a vehicle windscreen having a carrier element configured to hold a wiper rubber is disclosed. A wiper blade adapter, fixed to the carrier element, is configured to detachably connect the wiper blade to a wiper arm. The wiper arm includes a wiper arm adapter disposed on the wiper arm that is oriented along a longitudinal extension of the wiper arm in an assembly direction. The wiper blade adapter includes a first adapter section attached to the carrier element, a second adapter section configured to directly connect to the wiper arm adapter, and indirectly connect to the wiper arm via the wiper arm adapter, a joint that articulates the first adapter section and the second adapter section, and an electrical connecting element having an electrical contact configured to reversibly establish an electrical connection between a heating element and a current supply disposed on the wiper arm.

Vehicle comprising a cab defining a driver compartment by a windshield, a wiping arrangement configured to wipe the windshield over a wiping area, the wiping arrangement comprising at least one wiper including a support movably mounted on the cab and a blade mounted on the support to contact the windshield along a contact length,
wherein the wiping arrangement includes an urging system configured to urge the blade against the windshield, and
wherein the urging system is configured to apply a pressure on the blade along the contact length by a pressurized fluid.

An arm head includes: outer surface parts; a linkage recess provided between the outer surface parts; and front head-side abutment surfaces and rear head-side abutment surfaces provided at the outer surface parts and disposed on two sides of the linkage recess in a long-side direction of the arm head. An arm shank includes: inner surface parts; a linkage shaft provided between the inner surface parts; and front shank-side abutment surfaces and rear shank-side abutment surfaces provided at the inner surface parts, disposed on two sides of the linkage shaft in a long-side direction of the arm shank, and abutted against the front head-side abutment surfaces and the rear head-side abutment surfaces.

A windshield wiper is disclosed herein. The windshield wiper includes a first longitudinal flexible blade member, a second longitudinal flexible blade member and a longitudinal scrubbing member sandwiched between the first longitudinal flexible blade member and the second longitudinal flexible blade member. In some versions, the longitudinal scrubbing member includes a textured outer surface. The windshield wiper is able to squeegee loose debris, such as rain and snow, as well as stuck-on debris, such as stuck on insects and dirt.
