Wiping rubber for wiper blades in windshield wipers
The invention relates to a wiping rubber for wiper blades in windshield wipers, comprising a profile body formed of an elastomer or rubber material, at least partially having a surface coating. The surface coating (22) comprises carbon fibers (24).
Method for producing a wiper blade element comprising a composite layer made of a particle layer and a friction-reducing material
The present invention relates to a method for producing a wiper blade element (10) for a wiper blade and/or a wiper blade having a wiper blade element (10), in particular for a windscreen wiper. In order to provide simple and economical wiper blade elements and wiper blades having excellent properties, in particular having high wiping quality, high abrasion resistance, a high degree of friction reduction and miming noise reduction and a long service life, in said method a particle layer (12) is applied to an elastomer substrate (11), the elastomer substrate (11) is vulcanised with the particle layer (12) deposited thereon, and, after vulcanisation, a friction-reducing material (13) is applied to the particle layer (12). The invention further relates to a wiper blade element and wiper blade produced in such a way.
WIPER-BLADE INCLUDING TEXTURED SURFACE
A wiper blade includes: an elongated elastomeric body having an axial length, the body including a base and a blade projecting from the base, wherein the blade includes a blade edge on the opposite side of the body from the base; and a first set of scrubbing elements forming a first array located on a first side surface of the blade, wherein the first set of scrubbing elements includes a first plurality of scrubbing elements and a second plurality of scrubbing elements, wherein each of the first plurality of scrubbing elements is located closer to the blade edge as measured perpendicular to the axial length of the body than each of the second plurality of scrubbing elements, wherein each of the first plurality of scrubbing elements protrude a shorter height from the side surface of the blade than each of the second plurality of scrubbing elements.
