The connector has a receiving portion shaped to receive a first part of the end portion of a wiper arm and further has a securing portion shaped to secure a second part of the end portion of the wiper arm.

An adapter (26) for a wiper (10) is disclosed. The wiper includes a body (25) of elongate shape which is shaped to be mounted in a complementary yoke (28) of inverted U-shaped cross section belonging to a wiper arm. The body (25) of the adapter (26) has a locking tab (100, 102) which extends projecting above the upper face of the body (25), which is configured to be received through a hole (39b) in the yoke (28), which bears a rear contact surface (110) for contact with an edge (39b) of the hole (38b) in the yoke (28), and which is connected to the body (25) by an elastically deformable vertical connecting part (114a, 114b).

The invention proposes an adapter (26) for a wiper (10) comprising a body (25) of elongate shape which is shaped to be mounted in a complementary yoke (28) of inverted U-shaped cross section belonging to a wiper arm, characterized in that the body (1025) of the adapter (1026) comprises at least one elastic tab (1132a, 1132b) which is deformable in the transverse direction so as to retract as the adapter (1026) is being assembled and/or dismantled with respect to the yoke (28), the elastic tab (1132a, 1132b) being borne by a lateral wall (1026a, 1026b) of the body (1025) of the adapter.

A windscreen wiper arm, particularly for automobiles, that is able to oscillate upwardly and downwardly between a downward position and an upward position. One end of the windscreen wiper arm is adapted to be pivotally connected to a mounting head mounted on a drive shaft. Another end of the windscreen wiper arm is rigidly connected to an adapter adapted to be connected to an elongated wiper blade to be placed in abutment with a windscreen to be wiped. A joint part is adapted to be interposed between the adapter and the elongated wiper blade. The adapter, at the location of its connection to the wiper blade, has a U-shaped cross-section with a base and two spaced-apart legs. The windscreen wiper arm is provided with a nozzle for spraying a washing liquid onto the windscreen to be wiped. The nozzle is detachably connected to the adapter. At least one protrusion of the nozzle engages into a corresponding hole in one of the legs of the U-shaped cross-section of the adapter. The protrusion extends inwardly in a direction towards the adapter. The protrusion has a shank passing through the hole, and an enlarged head abutting an inner wall of the leg provided with the hole. The joint part is provided with a slit in which the enlarged head rests for blocking any movement of the protrusion in a direction towards the windscreen to be wiped and in a direction away from the windscreen to be wiped.

A windscreen wiper device comprising an elastic, elongated carrier element (4), as well as an elongated wiper blade o(2) f a flexible material, which can be placed in abutment with a windscreen to be wiped, which wiper blade is of the flat blade type and includes at least one longitudinal groove (3), in which groove a longitudinal strip (4) of the carrier element is disposed, which windscreen wiper device comprises a connecting device (5) for an oscillating arm (6), wherein the oscillating arm is pivotally connected to the connecting device about a pivot axis near a free end thereof, with the interposition of a joint part (7), wherein the oscillating arm has an at least substantially U-shaped cross-section at the location of its connection to the joint part, and wherein the joint part is positioned at least substantially within the U-shaped cross-section of the oscillating arm, with the special feature that the oscillating arm and the joint part are interconnected by introduction of the joint part between legs of the U-shaped cross-section of the oscillating arm in longitudinal direction of the wiper blade, wherein an end side of the joint part facing towards the free end of the oscillating arm closes the U-shaped cross-section thereof from the outside.

The invention proposes an adapter (26) for a windscreen wiper, having a body (25) which is delimited by two external lateral faces (29a, 29b) and which is configured to be mounted in a complementary yoke (28) of a wiper arm having a pair of front locking pegs (44a) and an abutment surface (39) which cooperate with associated parts of the adapter, each of the lateral faces of the adapter (26) having a front locking notch (59) which receives a front locking peg (44b), and wherein the adapter (26) is provided with a resilient branch (62) bearing an unlocking button (64) which cooperates with the abutment surface (39), characterized in that the resilient branch (62) extends longitudinally beyond a transverse end face (27b) of the body (25) of the adapter (26).
