A wiper blade for cleaning a vehicle windscreen having a carrier element configured to hold a wiper rubber is disclosed. A wiper blade adapter, fixed to the carrier element, is configured to detachably connect the wiper blade to a wiper arm. The wiper arm includes a wiper arm adapter disposed on the wiper arm that is oriented along a longitudinal extension of the wiper arm in an assembly direction. The wiper blade adapter includes a first adapter section attached to the carrier element, a second adapter section configured to directly connect to the wiper arm adapter, and indirectly connect to the wiper arm via the wiper arm adapter, a joint that articulates the first adapter section and the second adapter section, and an electrical connecting element having an electrical contact configured to reversibly establish an electrical connection between a heating element and a current supply disposed on the wiper arm.

The invention relates to a wiper device (100) for cleaning vehicle windows, with a wiper arm (10) and with a wiper blade (1), which is fastened on the wiper arm (10) by means of a fastening arrangement (2), and with a cleaning arrangement (40), which has at least one spray nozzle (42, 43, 47, 48) for a cleaning fluid, wherein the cleaning arrangement (40) is directly connected with the wiper arm (10), and wherein the fastening arrangement (2) is constructed as a separate element from the cleaning arrangement (40). It is provided according to the invention that the cleaning arrangement (40) is constructed to hold the fastening arrangement (2) for the wiper blade (1), and that on the fastening arrangement (2) and the cleaning arrangement (40) first and second guide means (65, 66), cooperating with one another, are provided, which guide the fastening arrangement (2) on mounting on the cleaning arrangement (40) between an initial position (80) and a final position (81).

The invention relates to a cleaning arrangement (40) for the cleaning of vehicle windows, wherein the cleaning arrangement (40) has a base body (131) with at least one spray opening (42, 43), wherein the base body (131) is able to be connected to a wiper arm (10), and wherein the base body (131) has a supply connection (51) for a cleaning fluid, which supply connection (51) is hydraulically connected to the spray opening (42, 43) via a connecting duct (121). According to the invention, it is provided that a feed connection (141) branches off from the connecting duct (121), which feed connection (141) opens in a connecting chamber (140) of the base body (131), and that the connecting chamber (140) is able to be closed by means of a closure cap (95).

A refillable wiper blade (36) including a refill subassembly (38) and a coupler (48) adapted for releasable attachment thereto.
