The invention relates to an adapter unit which is provided for coupling, in particular releasably coupling, a wiper blade to a wiper arm, having a wind deflecting surface which is designed to deflect inflowing air and press the wiper blade against a vehicle pane, wherein the wind deflecting surface is bordered by a wind deflecting surface edge, and the wind deflecting surface edge has at least ⋅a side which faces the wind and which extends largely in a wiper arm direction, ⋅a side which faces away from the wind and which extends largely in the wiper arm direction, ⋅a right-hand side which is arranged between the side facing the wind and the side facing away from the wind and which is arranged on the wiper arm side of the adapter and is designed to couple the adapter unit to the wiper arm, ⋅a rear left-hand side which adjoins the side facing away from the wind and is arranged on the adapter side opposite the wiper arm side, and ⋅a front left-hand side which adjoins the side facing the wind and is arranged on the adapter side lying opposite the wiper arm side. According to the invention, the side facing away from the wind and the right-hand side define a rear angle ranging between 110° and 160°, preferably between 120° and 150°, particularly preferably between 130° and 140°.

Streamlined flat windscreen wiper (1), in particular of a vehicle, characterized in that it comprises: a longitudinal wiper blade (8), at least one longitudinal stiffening spine (6), a longitudinal member (7) for holding said wiper blade and said stiffening spine, a longitudinal fairing (2, 3) comprising two end caps (3) and a central mount (2) extending between the end caps and being linked thereto, the mount comprising means for fixing to said stiffening spine or to said member for holding this spine.

The invention is based on a windshield wiper device, in particular a wiper arm adapter device, having at least one fluid connection piece (36) which delimits at least one fluid channel (38), and having at least one adapter piece (40), wherein the adapter piece (40) and the fluid connection piece (36) are constructed to be able to be moved relative to each other and are provided to be moved relative to each other during a coupling or uncoupling operation, in particular with a wiper blade (16).

It is proposed that the windshield wiper device comprise at least one coupling unit (42) which is provided to close the fluid channel (38) in accordance with a position of the adapter piece (40) relative to the fluid connection piece (36).

A windscreen wiper device of the flat blade type includes 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 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 thereof, the connecting device comprising at least two parts provided with protrusion/hole means for detachably connecting the parts together, wherein the first part is retained onto the wiper blade and wherein the second part comprises a channel for receiving a rod-like extension of the oscillating arm, wherein the windscreen wiper device is provided with first and second retention means for retaining the connecting device onto the oscillating arm, wherein the first retention means are formed by protrusion/hole means on the rod-like extension of the oscillating arm and on an inner wall of the channel for snappingly interconnecting the rod-like extension of the oscillating arm and the second part of the connecting device.

A windscreen wiper apparatus (10) having at least one wiper blade (14), having at least one heating element (16, 16) that is arranged on the wiper blade (14), in particular is integrated into the wiper blade (14), having at least one wiper blade adapter (18), and having at least one wiper arm adapter (50) that may be connected to the wiper blade adapter (18) along a longitudinal axis (24) of the wiper blade adapter (18).

The invention relates to an adapter unit which is provided for coupling, in particular releasably coupling, a wiper blade to a wiper arm, having a wind deflecting surface which is designed to deflect inflowing air and press the wiper blade against a vehicle pane, wherein the wind deflecting surface is bordered by a wind deflecting surface edge, and the wind deflecting surface edge has at least a side which faces the wind and which extends largely in a wiper arm direction, a side which faces away from the wind and which extends largely in the wiper arm direction, a right-hand side which is arranged between the side facing the wind and the side facing away from the wind and which is arranged on the wiper arm side of the adapter and is designed to couple the adapter unit to the wiper arm, a rear left-hand side which adjoins the side facing away from the wind and is arranged on the adapter side opposite the wiper arm side, and a front left-hand side which adjoins the side facing the wind and is arranged on the adapter side lying opposite the wiper arm side. According to the invention, the side facing away from the wind and the right-hand side define a rear angle ranging between 110 and 160, preferably between 120 and 150, particularly preferably between 130 and 140.
