The invention relates to a wiper blade (10) for the cleaning of windows (1) of motor vehicles, with a carrier element (15) which has a first mounting (16) for the form-fitting fastening of a wiper rubber (11) and a second mounting (22) for fastening at least one spring rail (20) serving as a support element. According to the invention, provision is made that the second mounting (22) in the longitudinal direction of the carrier element (15) forms laterally two guides (23, 24) for the spring rail (20), which embrace the lateral edge regions of the spring rail (20) in a form-fitting manner, and that the region between the guides (23, 24), viewed over the longitudinal direction of the carrier element (15), is constructed at least partially, preferably completely, as an open central zone (28).

A windscreen wiper device (1) of the flat blade type, particularly for automobiles, includes an elastic, elongated carrier element, as well as an elongated wiper blade (2) of a flexible material, which can be placed in abutment with a windscreen to be wiped. The wiper blade includes at least one longitudinal groove (3), in which groove at least one longitudinal strip (4) of the carrier element is disposed. A connecting device (5) is connected to the flexible material of the wiper blade by at least one pin (14), that cooperates with a recess (21) provided along an exterior edge of the longitudinal strip in order to limit any movement of the wiper blade in longitudinal direction thereof relative to the longitudinal strip at the location of the interconnection of the connecting device and the wiper blade. The connecting device has a substantially U-shaped cross-section, wherein free ends of legs (8) of the U-shaped cross-section extend inwardly so as to form grooves for receiving longitudinal sides of the wiper blade. At least one of the legs is provided with a hole (13) for receiving the pin, with the special feature that the pin is glued to an inner wall (25) of the hole or the pin is form-locked inside the hole.

A wiper blade having a wiper strip having a wide portion and a lip, and an elongate backing element. The backing element having a top portion, and two opposing legs that descend from the top portion, such that each opposing leg has a claw which extends towards the other opposing leg. A gap formed between the claws that is narrower than a width of the wide portion of the wiper strip. The claws, legs, and top portion define a wiper strip cavity sized to receive the wide portion wiper strip.

Connecting device (2) for connecting a wiper arm (1) to a drive arm of a wiper system for a vehicle, comprising at least one connector (5) mounted pivotably relative to a drive arm and including means (20) forming a pivoting interface defining an axis of rotation (18), said connector (5) comprising a plurality of tabs (30) for mechanically connecting the connector to the wiper arm, characterized in that said pivoting interface is longitudinally offset relative to a transverse mid-plane (TMP) of the connecting device, and in that at least one tab is situated on either side of a transverse vertical interface plane (TP) comprising the axis of rotation (18) and parallel to the transverse mid-plane (TMP).

A flat-push windshield wiper joint, comprising a base and a mounting base, wherein a slot is formed from the left end to the right end of said base. The position of said slot matching the left end of base is an opening. The top surface of said base sinks to form spaced slide opening and chucking hole. Said slide opening and chucking hole are distributed in the extending direction of slot, and a stop bar is formed between the slide opening and chucking hole. Said locatin bar matches the locating slot in the bottom surface of slot. The present invention can increase the assembly efficiency of flat-push windshield wiper joint and reduce the production costs.

The windscreen wiper device includes an elastomeric wiper blade that extends in a longitudinal direction. At least one pre-curved longitudinal strip is operably attached with the wiper blade and biases the wiper blade into a curved shape. A connecting device is secured with the at least one strip. The at least one strip includes a pair of tabs that extend longitudinally towards one another and project vertically. The tabs cooperate with the connecting device to secure the connecting device with the at least one longitudinal strip.

An adapter that connects with a coupler for a wiper element is configured to connect with a plurality of different wiper arms each having a different wiper arm style. The adapter can be a one-piece body or a multi-piece body having a cavity and openings for receiving distal ends or distal end features of each of the plurality of different wiper arms. The adapter can also include different tabs for engaging with openings, notches or other components on distal ends of each of the plurality of different wiper arms.

A wiper blade assembly for a windshield wiper. In one embodiment, the wiper blade assembly includes a connector mounted on a blade support element. 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 that connects with a coupler for a wiper element is configured to connect with a plurality of different wiper arms each having a different wiper arm style. The adapter can be a one-piece body or a multi-piece body having a cavity and openings for receiving distal ends or distal end features of each of the plurality of different wiper arms. The adapter can also include different tabs for engaging with openings, notches or other components on distal ends of each of the plurality of different wiper arms.

The windscreen wiper device includes a longitudinally extending wiper element that is made of an elastomeric material. A carrier element, which includes at least one pre-curved longitudinal strip, operably supports the wiper element. The wiper device also includes a connector device with a first piece and with a second piece. A joint part is also provided, and the joint part is connectable with the second piece of the connector device and is configured for attachment with an oscillating wiper arm. The second piece includes a pair of prongs which extend through aligned openings in the first piece and the at least one longitudinal strip. Ends of the prongs are plastically deformed to lock the first and second pieces of the connector device with the at least one pre-curved longitudinal strip.
