Closure element having two brackets which are substantially perpendicular or transverse with respect to one another. The closure element closes a ball socket, with the result that a pivot therein cannot be removed. To this end, it closes the opening of the ball socket. The ball socket and the pivot with the closure element form a secured ball joint which is used for wiping systems. The securing is carried out by the closure element being pushed onto the ball joint.

The versatility of a water collecting member is raised while improving the ease of assembly of the water collecting member. A water collecting member 80 is formed with plural first marks 90 serving as markers for assembly of the water collecting member 80 to a first pivot holder 20. The first pivot holder 20 is formed with a second mark 92 serving as a guide for the correct assembly orientation of the water collecting member 80 to the first pivot holder 20. The second mark 92 is formed corresponding to one out of the plural first marks 90, and is configured so as to form a pair with that first mark 90. The water collecting member 80 can be assembled in the correct position by aligning the second mark 92 and the first mark 90 that form a pair when assembling the water collecting member 80 to the first pivot holder 20. This thereby enables incorrect assembly of the water collecting member 80 to be prevented when assembling the water collecting member 80 to the first pivot holder 20 in cases in which a universal water collecting member 80 is employed in various vehicle models.

A wiper device includes a pivot shaft, a pivot holder, a water receiving cap and a washer. The pivot holder includes a pivot support portion and a mounting leg. The pivot support portion pivotally supports the pivot shaft. The water receiving cap includes a boss portion and an umbrella portion. The boss portion is fitted onto the pivot support portion. The washer is fixed to a circumference of the pivot shaft at a portion projecting from a distal end of the pivot support portion. At least part of the boss portion overlaps the washer in an axial direction. The umbrella portion includes a projection that projects in the axial direction. The projection opposes the mounting leg in a circumferential direction without engaging the mounting leg in the axial direction.

The invention relates to a bearing of a window wiper system (7) comprising a tube (9) for bearing a winder wiper blade driving shaft (11), the tube (9) having a protuberance (15) for cooperating with a supporting element in the form of a hollow rod (5), characterised in that the protuberance (15) has a collar (25) arranged at a distance from the tube (9).

A debris management system includes a slider adapted to move in first and second directions along a track disposed across a vehicle surface. The slider has a first side facing the first direction, a second side facing the second direction, and a spray barrier disposed along each of the first and second sides. A wiper mechanism extends from the slider and is adapted to make contact with the vehicle surface.

A universal windshield wiper blade assembly for use with all aircraft, both commercial and military that removes the necessity of having assemblies for each individual type of aircraft in existence at locations where aircraft fly in and out. The system utilizes individual mounts for individual types of aircraft that permanently installed after which the universal windshield wiper assembly is installed thereon. The universal windshield wiper assembly includes a gear box with a shaft that attaches to a windshield wiper arm that moves and windshield wiper blade, an electric motor, including internally and externally commutated as well as asynchronous motors that actuates the gear box and a motor cover that has housed therein electronics that include preset specifications for individual aircraft types.

This disclosure is an assembly structure of a windshield wiper. An accessory piece includes a main body and a head portion. A stepped surface is defined between the head portion and the main body. The stepped surface includes a front latching segment and two arc segments. The main body includes an elastic arm and a latching block located on the top thereof. The latching block includes a stepped portion. A wiper driving arm includes an arm body and a cover. The cover includes a top surface and two side walls. The top surface abuts against the front latching segment, and the two side walls abut against the two arc segments respectively. The latching block is embedded in the limiting slot on the top surface. One side of the limiting slot is located in the stepped portion and the latching block is non-protruding from the top surface.
