QUICK FASTENING FOR FIN RAY WIPERS
The invention relates to a window-wiping device for a vehicle having a fastening element fastened to a drive shaft, in particular a motor vehicle. The window-wiping device comprises a wiper blade having an elongate upper part, which is at least partially flexible, an elongate lower part, which is at least partially flexible, 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 extent of the wiper blade, and wherein the connecting elements are designed to enable a motion of the upper part and of the lower part in relation to each other with a motion component along a longitudinal extent of the wiper blade, and a wiper-blade-side fastening part, wherein the wiper-blade-side fastening part can be detachably connected by means of a linear motion on the fastening element, and the wiper-blade-side fastening part can be connected to the fastening element in such a way that a rotational position about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the wiper blade and perpendicular to the linear motion is defined by a support and a further contact point.
CAP AND DRIVING ARM FOR A WIPING DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a cap A comprising a first portion 1 that is able to cover a first end of a wiper arm of a wiping system of a vehicle, and a second portion 2 comprising an attachment means for attaching the cap A to the driving arm, characterized in that this attachment means comprises at least one rotation zone 222 that is arranged so as to allow the cap A to rotate with respect to the driving arm, and a zone 223 for locking said cap A to said driving arm.
Vehicle wiper device
In a vehicle wiper device, a retaining portion is formed inside an arm piece at respective areas of a base end side fixing section, a main body, and a leading end side fixing section of the arm piece. A hose is retained by the retaining portion. This thereby enables the hose to be retained to the arm piece without using a retaining member, such as a holder, to retain the hose to the arm piece. Moreover, disposing the hose inside the arm piece enables the hose to be suppressed from being exposed or projecting out from the arm piece. The hose can accordingly be retained in the arm piece without having a detrimental effect on the appearance and while suppressing an increase in cost of the vehicle wiper device.
Variable airfoil profile hollow wiper arms
A wiper apparatus includes a wiper axis interface configured for mounting a wiper assembly to a wiper drive. A lower wiper arm extends from the wiper axis interface to a wiper mount that is configured to connect the lower arm to an upper arm. A first end of the lower wiper arm proximate the wiper axis interface has a first airfoil profile and wall thickness. A second end of the lower wiper arm proximate the wiper mount has a second airfoil profile and wall thickness. An intermediate portion of the lower wiper arm extending between the first and second ends has a transitioning airfoil profile and thickness that transitions from the first airfoil profile and wall thickness to the second airfoil profile and wall thickness.
Vehicle windshield wiper device
A vehicle windshield wiper device comprising an articulated structure and a blade, the articulated structure comprising an arm transmitting mechanical forces to the blade, wherein the arm is mounted on an axle to provide an arm rotational movement corresponding to a wiping movement, wherein the arm is pivotably attached to the axle. The vehicle windshield wiper device also comprises an arm holder restraining the arm from pivoting when blade is in a parking position.
WIPER ARM
A wiper arm includes an arm head, a cover, and an arm body. The cover includes a top wall and a wall part. The top wall includes a fastening part extending toward the arm head side. The wall part includes a protruding part extending toward the arm head side. The arm body includes a connecting part that can be connected to the arm head. With the arm body and the arm head being connected by the connecting part, the arm head is covered by the cover. By one portion of the fastening part being engaged with the arm head, the other portion of the fastening part is brought into contact with the connecting part, and the protruding part is brought into contact with the arm head.
Rear wiper assembly
Provided is a rear wiper assembly having a rear wiper arm, a cover, a joint, and a motion-stopping mechanism. A connector and a cover are hingedly connected to the rear end of the rear wiper arm. When the cover is in a closed state, it covers the connector; the motion-stopping mechanism has a first interference element and a second interference element, at least one of the interference elements being a flexible element; the first interference element is arranged on the rear wiper arm, and the second interference element is arranged on the cover, when the cover is in an open state and when the angle between the upper surface of the cover and the upper surface of the rear wiper arm is within a predetermined range, the interference elements interfere with each other, preventing the cover from turning over in the direction of the connector.
VEHICLE WIPER DEVICE
In a vehicle wiper device having a wiper arm rotatably supported by a vehicle body and a wiper blade supported by the wiper arm, the wiper arm includes a link mechanism of 4 nodes, a fulcrum located closer to the wiper blade in the link mechanism is located on a side opposite to the wiper blade than a position of a hinge of the wiper arm, and when the wiper blade is at a lower end of a windshield, an arm connected to a drive shaft of each arm constituting the link mechanism is disposed below the drive shaft, and a rotation direction of the drive shaft and a rotation direction of the wiper arm are the same direction.
