The present invention proposes a wiper system being capable of ensuring wiping quality for the windshields with complex surfaces. The wiper system comprises: a wiper arm (19), on which a wiper blade (12) for cleaning a surface (16) of an object to be cleaned is provided; a first electrical motor (1) driving the wiper arm (19) to swing; a second electrical motor (9); a sensor (13) measuring a parameter representing the position of the wiper arm on the object to be cleaned; a control unit (7) receiving said parameter from said sensor (13) and utilizing said parameter to control the rotation angle of the an output shaft (18) of the second electrical motor (9), such that the output shaft (18) drives rotate the wiper blade (12) under control to change the rotation angle of the central plane of the wiper blade with respect to the wiper arm. The present invention also proposes a vehicle comprising said wiper system.

An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a first end of the wiper arm, and an output shaft coupled to a second end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade is configured to clean water, dirt, and other debris from the windshield of the aircraft. The output shaft is configured to rotate and cause the wiper arm with the coupled wiper blade to sweep across and clean the windshield. A sensor and a trigger are coupled to an actuator to ensure accurate sweep angle and parking position of the wiper arm and wiper blade.

Disclosed is an aircraft having motors operable to actuate an aircraft windshield wiper and an aircraft control surface. The aircraft includes a distributed control system having digital storage and integrated with redundant processors. The aircraft includes controller instructions stored on the digital storage operable upon execution to operate a control surface motor of the motors to actuate the control surface to impact an orientation of the aircraft and operate a windshield wiper motor of the motors to actuate the windshield wipers.

A windshield wiper system (WWS) is provided. The WWS includes a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor, a wiper arm and blade, a gearbox/converter operably interposed between the BLDC motor and the wiper arm and blade and a smart motor drive configured to determine a WWS failure condition and to operate the BLDC motor according to the determination.

A method for programming a wiper system for operating a vehicle windscreen wiper where a wiper module on the driver's side is programmed as a master module and a wiper module on the passenger's side is programmed as a slave module. The wiper modules include a reversing motor, a gear, a holder, and a control. A program sequence, vehicle-specific characteristic data and data for the operation of the wiper module as master or slave module are stored in the control. The wiper module on the driver's side is connected via an on-board wiring system interface and a first data communication line with a vehicle control unit. Provision is made that before the activation of the wiper module on the driver's side via the first data communication line in its control the wiper module is defined or respectively pre-programmed neither as master module nor as slave module.

Provided are embodiments for a system having an avionics system that is configured to dynamically communicate one or more configurable parameters of a wiper and wash system based at least in part on a selected mode, and an avionics bus that is configured to communicate dynamic parameters from the avionics system. The system also includes a wash system having a fluid reservoir and fluid level sensor, and a wiper system including a control unit (ECU) that is configured to operate the system based at least in part on the one or more configurable parameters, wherein the wiper system is coupled to the wash system and supplies the wash fluid to the wiper system. Also provided are embodiments of a method for performing dynamic control of the aircraft windscreen wiper and wash system configuration parameters.

In an opposite arrangement-type wiper system, an operation range 5b of an assistant driver's seat-side wiper blade 1b is set in such a way as to be narrower than an operation range 5a of a driver's seat-side wiper blade 1a and to overlap with the operation range 5a only partially. A lower side turn point Lb of the wiper blade 1b is set near an outer periphery R of the operation range 5a and an overlapping operation range 6c is formed between the operation ranges 5a and 5b. A normal stop position of the wiper blade 1b at the time when the wiper system is not running is set on the side of an upper side turn point Ub. While being arranged opposite from each other, the wiper blades 1a and 1b operate in tandem in the same direction when moving back and forth for wiping.

An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a first end of the wiper arm, and an output shaft coupled to a second end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade is configured to clean water, dirt, and other debris from the windshield of the aircraft. The output shaft is configured to rotate and cause the wiper arm with the coupled wiper blade to sweep across and clean the windshield. A sensor and a trigger are coupled to an actuator to ensure accurate sweep angle and parking position of the wiper arm and wiper blade.

A wiper system for a vehicle is provided. The wiper system includes a driving assembly. The wiper system further includes a supplementary wiper having a first end that is coupled to a first pivot point of the driving assembly. When the wiper system is activated, the driving assembly is configured to swing the supplementary wiper about the first pivot point from a resting position to an extended position. The supplementary wiper is configured to be statically disposed at the extended position to prevent water from passing over one of two A-pillars of the vehicle to a side window of the vehicle. When the wiper system is deactivated, the driving assembly is configured to stow the supplementary wiper back from the extended position to the resting position.

Provided is an electric dual-mode wiper system for a railway vehicle. The electric dual-mode wiper system for a railway vehicle includes a first wiper drive unit and a second wiper drive unit, and controls a synchronization operation of the first wiper drive unit and a second wiper drive unit.
