The invention relates to an intermediate piece 101 intended to be interposed between a connector 8 that is able to carry a wiper and a connecting element 203 of a driving arm, the connector 8 comprising at least one receiving bearing 15 for receiving a first shaft 102, the connecting element 203 comprising at least one receiving orifice 215 for receiving a second shaft 103, characterized in that the intermediate piece 101 is equipped with the first shaft 102 and the second shaft 103.

Application to motor vehicles.

Novel connectors and wiper blade assemblies including same for securing windshield wiper blades and arms are described, including those that accommodate side-saddle wiper arms. A wiper blade connector may have a mounting portion comprising a wiper blade securing element, the wiper securing element being capable of securing a wiper blade, and a side-saddle portion comprising two side walls, a top wall and a bottom surface, defining a receiving cavity, said top wall having a cantilever with a locking tab.

An apparatus for connecting a wiper blade to a wiper arm for a screen wiping system of a motor vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes an adapter that is connectable to the wiper blade; a receiving element that is connectable to the wiper arm and has an adapter opening for receiving the adapter. The adapter has at least two locking regions which can be deformed with respect to one another and are configured to lock the adapter to the receiving element in a locking position. The apparatus also includes an actuator for unlocking the locking regions, wherein, in an unlocking position, the actuator engages into an engagement opening of the receiving element and, in the process, the two locking regions are deformed with respect to one another by the actuator in such a way that the adapter can be removed through the adapter opening.

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 at least one longitudinal groove, in which groove a longitudinal strip of the carrier element is disposed, which windscreen wiper device comprises a connecting device for an oscillating arm, wherein the oscillating arm can be 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 connecting device has a substantially H-shaped cross-section, wherein lower legs of the H-shaped cross-section are connected to the flexible material of the wiper blade on opposite sides thereof, and wherein upper legs of the H-shaped cross-section are adapted to receive the joint part.

The invention relates to a wiping device, in particular a wiping device for a motor vehicle pane, comprising a wiper blade adapter (12a-12c) that has at least one detent element (40a-40c, 42a-42c), said element being designed, when mounted, to prevent a movement of the wiper blade adapter (12a-12c) relative to a retaining element (10a-10c) in a longitudinal direction (22a-22c). According to the invention, the wiping device has at least one securing means (30a-30c, 32a-32c) that is provided in order to secure the at least one detent element (40a-40c, 42a-42c) when mounted.

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 at least one longitudinal groove, in which groove a longitudinal strip of the carrier element is disposed, which windscreen wiper device comprises a connecting device for an oscillating arm, wherein the oscillating arm can be 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 connecting device has a substantially H-shaped cross-section, wherein lower legs of the H-shaped cross-section are connected to the flexible material of the wiper blade on opposite sides thereof, and wherein upper legs of the H-shaped cross-section are adapted to receive the joint part.

A connector for a windscreen wiper of a motor vehicle, the connector being configured to allow the wiper to be articulated to an arm for driving the wiper in a rotational movement about an axis of rotation Y. The connector includes one or more projecting shapes which are configured to be guided in rotation by an adaptor for the wiper on the arm in various angularly distant regions about the axis of rotation Y, so as to allow the movement in rotation.
