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.

Disclosed is a wiper frame (10) comprising a resilient support rail (22) and a wiper blade (12) which is attached to the support rail (22). According to the invention, the wiper blade (12) has a wiper blade lip (44) having a substantially rigid cross-sectional structure, and the wiper blade lip (44) is mounted between a first bending region (32) and a second bending region (34) in a cross-sectional view.

Blade guard for a wiper

The invention relates to a blade guard (1) for a wiper (100) of a vehicle (200), the blade guard (1) comprising a first part (11) and a second part (12), the first part (11) being configured to allow the blade guard (1) to be attached on the wiper (100), the second part (12) being intended to come into contact with a glazed surface (50) of the vehicle (200), characterized in that the second part (12) is configured to contain a product to be applied onto the glazed surface (50). The invention also relates to a wiper (100) comprising such a blade guard (1).

Sensor assembly with a non-contact surface cleaning system for cameras, sensors, lidar and the like

A sensor assembly includes a sensor and a cover disposed adjacent to the sensor to protect the sensor. The cover has an inner cover surface and an outer cover surface opposite the inner cover surface. The inner cover surface faces the sensor, and the outer cover surface faces away from the sensor. The cover has a first end wall and a second end wall apart from the first end wall along a first direction. The sensor assembly includes a cleaning system having a wiper movable along the outer cover surface of the cover in the first direction to clean to the outer cover surface. The wiper is at least partly made of a wiper material, and the wiper material includes a hydrophilic material to facilitate removal of water from the outer cover surface of the cover.

A wiper blade having a wiper strip having a wide portion and a lip, and an elongate backing element. The backing element having a top portion, and two opposing legs that descend from the top portion, such that each opposing leg has a claw which extends towards the other opposing leg. A gap formed between the claws that is narrower than a width of the wide portion of the wiper strip. The claws, legs, and top portion define a wiper strip cavity sized to receive the wide portion wiper strip.

WIPER STRUCTURE FOR RESIN WINDOW AND WIPER RUBBER

A wiper structure for a resin window includes a wiper configured to wipe a part of a surface of the resin window. The wiper has an elastic wiper rubber and a wiper holder configured to hold the wiper rubber. The wiper rubber has a holding base portion, a lip portion, a body portion, and a neck portion. The lip portion is in contact with the resin window. In the lip portion, a ratio of a lip length in the direction toward the surface of the resin window to a lip thickness in the thickness direction is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 2.3.

Wiper blade with directionally differentiated motion
11142167 · 2021-10-12 · ·

A wiper including wiper bracket which couples a wiper arm to blade carrier which carries one or more blades and includes an internal flow path which conducts fluid from a wiper bracket inlet through a hollow passage in a wiper blade carrier cover to plurality of outlets aligned with passthroughs in the blade carrier through which fluid egresses from the wiper.

Surface Wiper System
20210229636 · 2021-07-29 · ·

A surface wiper device which includes a carrier which supports a blade. The carrier attaches to a wiper arm which urges the blade against and moves the blade across the surface of a windshield. The carrier further provides a plurality of outlets each of which communicate between a hollow passage inside the carrier and a location on the external surface of the carrier. A fluid can be delivered from a fluid source fluidicly coupled to the hollow passage of the carrier under sufficient pressure to be dispersed from the plurality of outlets onto the windshield during movement of the blade. A fluid heater can be thermally coupled with the fluid delivered from the fluid source to the plurality of outlets to increase the temperature of the fluid dispersed onto the windshield. The fluid can be sufficiently heated to generate a heated gas.

BLADE ATTACHMENT TOOL AND BLADE SUPPORT STRUCTURE

A blade attachment tool includes a first support member supported by a pressing support portion supporting a blade formed of an elastic member configured to wipe/scrape liquid/solids spreading on an abutment surface by being pressed against the abutment surface and being long in one direction such that the blade is pressed against the abutment surface with a predetermined pressing force, a second support member supported to swing about a swing shaft extending in a longitudinal direction of the blade with respect to the first support member and configured such that a base end side of the blade is attached thereto, and an energizing member configured to apply a reaction force to a friction force that causes the second support member to swing about the swing shaft with respect to the first support member when the blade is pressed against the abutment surface to slide relatively to the abutment surface.
