Provided is a compact and high-strength cab capable of securing an excellent field of view for work. The cab includes a guard protecting a cab body, and a wiper having a blade to wipe a front window member and a blade actuator for actuating the blade. The guard includes a pair of side pillars and an actuator housing beam interconnecting the side pillars and housing the blade actuator. The actuator housing beam includes a hollow beam body formed with a body opening and a front-rear partition plate partitioning the inside of the beam body into front and rear sections. The body opening allows the blade actuator to be assembled to the front-rear partition plate therethrough.

The subject-matter of the invention is a water draining cover (1) for an automotive windshield wiping mechanism, containing a positive connection element (4) of the cover, adapted for securing on the body (2) of the shaft (11), containing an opening on the shaft (5) and surrounded by a gutter part (6) containing a drainage opening (7), characterized in that the positive connection element of the cover (4) does not have a continuous rotary symmetry with regard to the X axis, and in each transverse section in the plane perpendicular to the X axis it has the shape of a convex figure, and furthermore the positive connection element of the body (3) has means of blocking the movement of the cover (1) in a direction parallel to the X axis when the cover (1) is mounted on the body (2), preferably in the form of at least one projection and/or recess (9), preferably perpendicular to the X axis, while the X axis is defined as a straight line passing through the opening on the shaft (5), coinciding with the axis of rotation of the shaft (11) when the cover (1) is properly mounted on the body (2). The subject-matter of the invention is also the body (2) of a shaft (11) corresponding to the cover of the invention, as well as an automotive windshield wiper mechanism containing the cover (1) and the body (2).

The invention relates to a fastening arrangement (10) comprising a wiper bearing (11) of a windscreen wiper arrangement of a vehicle. Said wiper bearing (11) comprises a bearing element (13) having a planar first side (28); a bearing section which protrudes from the first side (28) of the bearing element (13) for guiding a wiper shaft (12); one or more gripping elements (19a, 19b) which are arranged on the bearing section (13a) and respectively comprising a gripping surface which is arranged parallel to the surface of the first side (28) of the bearing element (13).

A wiper system is disclosed for a motor vehicle, and includes a longitudinally extended multi-part support having first and second longitudinally extended support arms. The second support arm is oriented in an imaginary extension to the first support arm and connected to the first support arm. A fastening element for fastening the support to a body of the motor vehicle is in each case arranged on the longitudinal ends, which face away from one another, of first and second support arm. A first wiper bearing is arranged on at least one of the longitudinal ends of first and second support arm.

A wiper module assembly for a vehicle liftgate having an inner panel with a spoiler formed as a one-piece part of the inner panel. An outer panel of the liftgate is connected to the inner panel to form an exterior surface of the liftgate. A cavity is formed in part of the spoiler and receives a carrier forming a removable module connected to the cavity of the vehicle liftgate. The carrier includes a wiper, motor and drive assembly for operating a wiper for a window on the liftgate.

A wiper linkage system directly transmits rotating force of a motor to one wiper arm. The wiper linkage system includes: a gear housing installed on a wiper motor, a pipe rod installed on the gear housing, a crank arm installed on an output shaft of the wiper motor, a first wiper arm installed on a first end of the crank arm by a rotating shaft, a pivot housing assembled with the pipe rod, and a second wiper arm operated by a link structure including a link unit coupled to a second end of the crank arm and the pivot housing. In particular, a first end of the pipe rod is fixed to a vehicle body by a pipe mounting.

Presently disclosed are embodiments of devices for expedient removal of insect and other debris from vehicle surfaces including windshields. A surfactant-based chemical impregnation of porous material is central to various tools used for such cleaning. Embodiments include a wiper attachment, tools for dispensing disposable chemically-impregnated pads, mitts, and wiper fluid formulations. A disposable windshield wiper blade attachment that incorporates chemicals that will expedite insect and other debris removal when attached to the wiper blades and the wiper action is performed. The attachment can take the form of fabric, foam, or other porous enclosure of synthetic or natural material that is impregnated with chemicals that will facilitate rapid removal of the windshield and automobile surface debris.

A wiper mount bracket including an attachment portion, a pair of first welded portions each of which is provided with a welding point to be spot welded to the vehicle body, a second welded portion that is disposed on one side with respect to the attachment portion and the first welded portions in a direction perpendicular to an arrangement direction of the pair of first welded portions and that is provided with a welding point to be spot welded to the vehicle body, and a recess portion that is disposed between the second welded portion and the attachment portion together with the first welded portions. A protruding bead through which an input load from the wiper driving unit is transmitted toward an outer edge of the first welded portion is provided in a vicinity of each of the welding points of the first welded portions.

A first driven lever of a vehicle wiper device has a proximal end pivotally connected to a distal end of a first driving lever. A second driven lever has a proximal end pivotally connected to a distal end of the first driven lever and a distal end pivotally connected to a distal end of a second driving lever. A first wiper arm operates integrally with the second driven lever and has a distal end to which a first wiper blade is connected. A swing transmission mechanism transmits a driving force to the first driving lever. The swing transmission mechanism includes a swing crank arm integrally rotatable with a rotation shaft of a single drive source. An extension-contraction transmission mechanism transmits a driving force to the second driving lever. The extension-contraction transmission mechanism includes an extension-contraction crank arm integrally rotatable with the rotation shaft of the drive source.
