A WINDSCREEN WIPER DEVICE
A windscreen wiper device is provided. The device comprises a connecting device pivotally connected to an oscillating arm about a pivot axis, with the interposition of a joint part. The joint part comprises at least one resilient tongue engaging a correspondingly shaped hole provided in the oscillating arm. The resilient tongue is rotatable along a hinge axis between an outward position retaining the wiper blade onto the oscillating arm and an inward position releasing the wiper blade from the oscillating arm. The oscillating arm has an at least substantially U-shaped cross-section at the location of its connection to the joint part and at least one leg of the U-shaped cross-section of the oscillating arm comprises an inwardly extending protrusion cooperating with a bottom surface of a side wall of the joint part near an extremity of the joint part facing away from the free end of the oscillating arm.
WIPER DEVICE
The invention relates to a wiper device (10) comprising a wiper blade adapter (12) having at least one first wiper blade adapter element (14) and at least one second wiper blade adapter element (16), which mounted such that it can pivot relative to the first wiper blade adapter element (14) in at least one mounted state, and comprising a wiper arm adapter (18), which is coupled to the second wiper blade adapter element (16) in the mounted state. According to the invention, the wiper blade adapter (12) has a security unit (20), which is provided to allow a removal of the wiper arm adapter (18) from the wiper blade adapter (12) exclusively in at least one removal pivot position of the wiper arm adapter (18) relative to the first wiper blade adapter element (14).
WIPER BLADE CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
An adapter is provided to attach a non-original wiper blade assembly to a wiper arm of a vehicle which is usable with an existing sliding latch and other aesthetic and functional components of the wiper arm to maintain the original aesthetics of the wiper system while allowing installation of non-original wiper blade assemblies.
Wiper adapter and wiper assembly incorporating the same
An adapter for attaching to a wiper arm attachment member having a track defined by a base and walls depending therefrom, a bent tab extending outwardly from the base, and fins that extend from the walls. The adapter has a body with a first and second ends. A stop wall formed at the first end abuts the track. A pair of outer walls extend between the first and second ends. A strap connects the outer walls for engaging the base. A pair of inner walls are spaced laterally between the outer walls and are arranged at least partially under the strap. A cantilevered finger extends from each of the inner walls with a tab formed adjacent to the second end. The tabs extend away from each other and are arranged to engage respective fins to prevent movement between the adapter and the attachment member when the stop wall abuts the track.
Adapter for connecting a wiper blade to a driving arm of a wiping system
An adapter (9) designed to connect a wiper blade to a drive arm of a wiping system for a motor vehicle, the adapter (9) extending primarily along a longitudinal axis (X) and comprising at least a body (24) having two sides (26) joined together, at least partially, by a bridge of material (27), a head (23) forming a first longitudinal end of the adapter (9), a rear portion (25) forming a second longitudinal end of the adapter (9) opposite the first longitudinal end with respect to the body (24), a flexible tongue (34) emerging from the body (24) of the adapter (9) and a knob (16) emerging from the flexible tongue (34), this knob (16) being configured to block the adapter (9) in a terminal portion of the drive arm of the wiping system.
Wiper blade and method for manufacturing wiper blade
A wiper blade extends in the longitudinal direction and includes blade rubber, a plate spring-like backing, and a rubber holder. The blade rubber wipes a surface to be wiped. The backing imparts rigidity and elasticity to the blade rubber. The rubber holder holds both the longitudinally intermediate section of the blade rubber and the longitudinally intermediate section of the backing. The rubber holder has a backing housing hole for housing and retaining the backing. The backing housing hole longitudinally extends through the rubber holder. A parting line is set at the longitudinal center of the backing housing hole.
CONNECTING DEVICE FOR CONNECTING A WIPER BLADE TO A DRIVE ARM OF A WIPER SYSTEM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
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).
DEVICE FOR DETACHABLY LINKING A WIPER BLADE TO A DRIVEN WIPER ARM
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.
Intermediate piece for connecting a wiper to a driving arm for driving a windscreen wiper
The invention relates to an intermediate piece 101 intended to be interposed between a connector 8 that is able to carry a wiper and a connecting element 203 of a driving arm, the connector 8 comprising at least one receiving bearing 15 for receiving a first shaft 102, the connecting element 203 comprising at least one receiving orifice 215 for receiving a second shaft 103, characterized in that the intermediate piece 101 is equipped with the first shaft 102 and the second shaft 103. Application to motor vehicles.
