Wiper device
The invention relates to a wiper device comprising at least one wiper strip unit (12a-g) which has at least one first wiper lip (14a-g) and at least one second wiper lip (16a-g). The wiper device (10a-g) has at least one automatically activated wiper lip switching unit (20a-g) which is provided in order to switch a wiper lip (18a-g) that is active in at least one sub-process of a wiping process.
Window washer and washing method
A window washer having a brushing arm mounted to a wiping arm of the window washer, and a motion conversion mechanism for converting back and forth rotational motion of the wiping arm to back and forth linear motion of the brushing arm, thereby the brushing arm rotates with the wiping arm motion, and in addition, linearly slides back and forth from the wiping arm, for brushing a window.
MOTORIZED WINDSHIELD SCOURER
A motor-powered windshield scourer for any type of a motor-powered vehicle and or motor craft. The motorized windshield scourer may have a motor propelled appendages or a singular appendage that have replaceable scouring attachments joined to the appendages. The motor that propels the appendages can be positioned anywhere on or in the motor vehicle/craft, whether under the hood, in the cabin or elsewhere. The motor driven appendages with joined scouring attachments may be mounted on the windshield of the vehicle directly opposite of the windshield wiper blades. When turned on, the motor may move the appendages with joined attachments in a side to side and/or up and down motion across the windshield. The appendages may include an unpliable metal such as: steel, titanium, tungsten, or inconel, and the scouring attachments may include nylon scouring pads or a vinyl coated mesh attached to and covering rubber or foam.
TOUCH SCREEN OPERATED CRUISE CONTROL
A cleaning device for a vehicle has tracks above and below the vehicle's windshield. A brush, wiper blade and spray bar extend across the windshield at a starting side of the windshield. The spray bar provides washer fluid as the brush rotates against the windshield. The spray bar, rotating brush and wiper bar are moved along the tracks and across the windshield to an opposing, return side of the windshield where the wiper blade first contacts the windshield and the brush stops rotating and moves away from the windshield. The spray bar rotates next to the wiper blade to blow air against the windshield. The wiper blade scrapes water while air blows water off the windshield as they move back to the starting side of the windshield where they are stored in a frame along the side of the windshield when not in use.
Windshield wiper blade device
The present invention relates to a windshield wiper blade device primarily comprised of a body further comprised of at least one channel, a first blade insert, a second blade insert, a cleaning attachment that is received by the second blade insert and a wiper attachment mechanism. The first and second blade inserts are generally T-shaped and can each be placed into a T-shaped channel within the body. The first blade insert acts as a traditional windshield wiper blade and the second blade insert comprises a generally cylindrical cleaning attachment. The cleaning attachment is positioned in front of (i.e., closer to the windshield than) the first blade insert, such that the cleaning attachment dislodges any insects or heavy debris on the windshield before the first blade insert cleans precipitation off of a windshield.
Dual-Blade Wiper Blade
Described is a dual-blade wiper blade for a windshield of a vehicle. The dual-blade wiper blade has a frame structure, a squeegee, a wiping lip, and a scraping lip. The squeegee coupled to the frame structure. Each of the wiping lip and the scraping lip are coupled to the squeegee. The scraping lip being positioned in parallel with the wiping lip.
Windshield touch and clean system
A cleaning device for a vehicle has tracks above and below the vehicle's windshield. A brush, wiper blade and spray bar extend across the windshield at a starting side of the windshield. The spray bar provides washer fluid as the brush rotates against the windshield. The spray bar, rotating brush and wiper bar are moved along the tracks and across the windshield to an opposing, return side of the windshield where the wiper blade first contacts the windshield and the brush stops rotating and moves away from the windshield. The spray bar rotates next to the wiper blade to blow air against the windshield. The wiper blade scrapes water while air blows water off the windshield as they move back to the starting side of the windshield where they are stored in a frame along the side of the windshield when not in use.

The spray bar provides washer fluid as the brush rotates against the windshield. The spray bar, rotating brush and wiper bar are moved along the tracks and across the windshield to an opposing, return side of the windshield where the wiper blade first contacts the windshield and the brush stops rotating and moves away from the windshield. The spray bar rotates next to the wiper blade to blow air against the windshield. The wiper blade scrapes water while air blows water off the windshield as they move back to the starting side of the windshield where they are stored in a frame along the side of the windshield when not in use.
Windshield touch and clean system
A windshield touch and clean system that can clean either the entire windshield of an automobile or spot clean a localized area of the windshield is disclosed. The windshield touch and clean system may control a cleaning head in a number of ways including but not limited to two articulating extension members or a gantry system. The cleaning head may be retrofitted with a spray nozzle for spraying cleaning fluid and also a vibration unit to assist in cleaning of residue on the windshield.
MODIFIED WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADE HOLDER
A wiper blade assembly that includes: a wiper blade holder, where the holder is adapted to receive a wiper blade; a scrubber extending downward and a parallel to the wiper blade, where the scrubber and wiper blade are adapted to engage a windshield in unison during operation; and clips within the wiper blade holder to hold and support the wiper blade in position. The wiper blade holder includes an opening to receive the wiper blade, where the clips are with the opening and the opening may be adjustable in width. The wiper blade assembly also includes a wiper assembly, where the wiper assembly is adapted to receive the wiper blade holder.
