Provided are an adaptor for assembling a wiper blade, a wiper blade assembly, and a wiper device. The adaptor for assembling a wiper blade, which is configured to couple the wiper blade to two or more types of wiper arms, includes a body portion coupled to the wiper blade and to which a first type wiper arm is coupled horizontally or to which a second type wiper arm is coupled vertically and a locking portion rotatable provided on the body portion to cover a front end of the wiper arm.

The invention is based on a wiper device, in particular a windscreen wiper device, having a wiper arm adapter (10), having a wiper blade adapter (12) which can be coupled to the wiper arm adapter (10) along a pivot axis (14) of the wiper arm adapter (10), and having at least one electrical and/or fluidic transverse connection unit (16) which can be connected or can be disconnected by a pivoting movement of the wiper blade adapter (12) relative to the wiper arm adapter (10) about the pivot axis (14). It is proposed that the wiper device comprises at least one electrical and/or fluidic axial connection unit (18) which can be connected or can be disconnected by a translatory movement of the wiper blade adapter (12) relative to the wiper arm adapter (10), in particular along or parallel to the pivot axis (14).

A wiper device (10) having a wiper arm adapter (16) and having a cover unit (30) which is mounted on the wiper arm adapter (16) so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis (36) between an open position (34) and a closed position (32) and which, in the closed position (32), at least partially covers the wiper arm adapter (16) in relation to an environment. The cover unit (30), in the closed position (32), is displaceable translationally between an unlocked position (38) and a locked position (40).

The present invention is directed to a wiper blade adapter (200) having a body (100) for receiving a hook-type wiper arm (300) and an adapter cap (1) for locking the hook-type wiper arm (300) to the adapter (200), a first end of the adapter cap (1) is hingedly connected to a body pin (130) of the body (100), and a second end of the adapter cap (1) engages a groove (112, 122) of the body (100) to lock the adapter cap (1) to the body (100) and to the hook-type wiper arm (300).

A windscreen wiper device comprising an elastic, elongated carrier element, as well as an elongated wiper blade of a flexible material, which can be placed in abutment with a windscreen to be wiped, which wiper blade includes opposing longitudinal grooves on its longitudinal sides, in which grooves spaced-apart longitudinal strips of the carrier element are disposed, wherein neighbouring ends of the longitudinal strips are interconnected by a respective connecting piece, which windscreen wiper device comprises a connecting device for an oscillating arm, wherein the oscillating arm is pivotally connected to the connecting device about a pivot axis near one end, with the interposition of a joint part, with the special feature that the joint part is detachable connected to the connecting device by engaging protrusions of the connecting device, at the location of the pivot axis, in recesses provided in the joint part, and wherein the protrusions are provided with co-axial through holes.

Provided are an adaptor for assembling a wiper blade, a wiper blade assembly, and a wiper device. The adaptor for assembling a wiper blade, which is configured to couple the wiper blade to two or more types of wiper arms, includes a body portion coupled to the wiper blade and to which a first type wiper arm is coupled horizontally or to which a second type wiper arm is coupled vertically and a locking portion rotatable provided on the body portion to cover a front end of the wiper arm.

A wiper arm adapter device with at least one fluid channel (44a, 46a; 44b, 46b) for conducting a fluid, and with at least one connecting unit (48a; 48b) for connecting the fluid channel (44a, 46a; 44b, 46b) to a fluid line element (36a; 36b) of a wiper arm and/or to a wiper blade adapter (30a; 30b), wherein the connecting unit (48a; 48b) has at least one connecting element (52a, 54a; 52b, 54b) which at least partially delimits the fluid channel (44a, 46a; 44b, 46b). The connecting unit (48a; 48b) has at least one valve element (56a, 58a; 56b, 58b) which is arranged on the connecting element (52a, 54a; 52b, 54b) and is configured to form the fluidic connection of the fluid channel (44a, 46a; 44b, 46b) to the wiper blade adapter (30a; 30b) in a closeable manner.

A connection device (1) for connecting a wiper blade to a driving arm for a vehicle is disclosed. At least one connector is configured to be secured to the wiper blade. The connection device (1) comprises a base adapter (25) and at least one complementing adapter (26, 27), this base adapter (25) being equipped with at least one pivot member (50) connecting it to the connector (24), the base adapter (25) being configured to connect this connector (24) to a first type of driving arm, the base adapter (25) bearing at least one reference, the complementing adapter (26, 27) bearing at least one marking, a combination of the base adapter (25) and the complementing adapter (26, 27) generating a code visually associated with another type of driving arm, different from the first type of driving arm, from a combination of the reference and the marking.
