Windscreen wiper device
A windscreen wiper device comprising an elongated wiper blade of a flexible material, a connecting device, a mounting head, and a longitudinal strip-shaped arm. The wiper blade is adapted to be placed in abutment with a windscreen to be wiped. The wiper blade includes at least one groove in which an elastic, elongated carrier element is disposed. The connecting device is connected to the wiper blade. The mounting head transfers a reciprocal movement to the wiper blade. The longitudinal strip-shaped arm has a first end detachably connected to the mounting head through a snapping operation and a second end detachably connected to the connecting device through a snapping operation. The arm is made of a resilient material and is biased to exert a pressure onto the wiper blade towards the windscreen to be wiped.
Multiple wiper blade adapter for wiper blade assembly
A wiper system and, more specifically, wiper adapters are provided for wiper assemblies. The adapter engages retention features formed on the front end of the wiper arm, and the blade assembly is equipped with an adapter that mates with the arm geometry to secure itself together. The adapters mount to a common arm geometry and allow for ready, direct connection of the wiper arm to the adapter, which in turn connects to a wiper assembly.
Lightning strike protection for an aircraft windshield wiper system
An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a distal end of the wiper arm, and a drive shaft coupled to a proximal end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade is configured to clean water, dirt, and other debris from the windshield of the aircraft. The drive shaft is configured to rotate and cause the wiper arm with the coupled wiper blade to sweep across the windshield. The wiper arm includes both composite and metal components to reduce the weight of the windshield wiper system while also providing lightning strike protection.
Washing arrangement for washing a surface of a target device and method for washing a surface of a target device using said washing arrangement
The washing arrangement comprises at least one first wiper driving actuator and at least one second wiper driving actuator to move at least one wiper, and at least one nozzle for injecting washing fluid towards the target device, wherein the wiper driving actuators are linked to each other such that, in use, the wiper is driven by the first wiper driving actuator along a first line to contact the surface of the target device to be washed, and by the second wiper driving actuator along a second line to wipe at least one portion of the surface of the target device.
WIPER ARM FOR A WIPER SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A WIPER ARM
The invention relates to a wiper arm (10) for a wiper system of a vehicle, having a wiper arm element (12) which is configured for connecting, in an articulated manner, an attachment piece (20) coupled to a wiper shaft, wherein the wiper arm element (12) is coupled to an adapter element (18) for connecting to a wiper blade. Furthermore, it is provided that the wiper arm element (12) consists of two separate components (14, 16), namely a first component (14), which is connected to the adapter element (18), and a second component (16), which attaches to the first component (14) on the side facing away from the adapter element (18), and that the first component (14) is formed from a profile strip (37) having a U-shaped cross section, wherein the two components (14, 16) overlap in a longitudinal direction in a first connection area (24).
Vehicle wiper device
A vehicle wiper device includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade, a nozzle body, a hose, and a cleaning fluid supply section. A leading end side portion of the wiper arm is configured by an arm piece, and the wiper arm swings back and forth. The nozzle body is attached to the arm piece, is disposed on an outward movement side of the wiper blade, and jets cleaning fluid toward a windshield. The hose conveys cleaning fluid under pressure. The cleaning fluid supply section is at an opposite side of a rubber holder from the windshield, extends from the nozzle body so as to extend across the rubber holder from the outward movement side toward a return movement side of the wiper blade, is connected to the hose, and supplies cleaning fluid to the nozzle body.

Multiple wiper blade system and assembly
A multiple windshield wiper assembly is disclosed. The multiple windshield wiper assembly may comprise a first wiper assembly having a squeegee blade; a second wiper assembly having a scraper blade, the second wiper assembly being coupled to the first wiper assembly by a windshield wiper assembly connector; wherein the scraper blade comprises an attachment surface for engaging a wiper assembly, a scraper surface for engaging a windshield, a channel for conducting wiper fluid, a plurality of apertures for disbursement of the wiper fluid onto a windshield, and a water connection fitting for connection of the scraper blade to a vehicle water supply hose. A number of embodiments of a windshield wiper assembly connector for use in connecting one or more windshield wiper assemblies to pin-type and hookslot-type wiper arms are also disclosed.
WINDSHIELD WIPER
The present disclosure relates to a windshield wiper, having a latch seat (10), an elastic arm (20), a scraper (40) and a blocking member (50). The elastic arm (20) is connected to the latch seat (10) and includes an opening slot (21) formed at one end thereof. The elastic arm (20) includes a top surface (22) and a bottom surface (23). The scraper (40) is attached to the bottom surface (23) of the elastic arm (20). The blocking member (50) includes a substrate (51) attached to the top surface (22) and having a side blocking member (52) penetrating through the opening slot (21) and blocking the scraper (21) along a longitudinal direction of the elastic arm (20). Accordingly, the windshield wiper is facilitated for assembly, and the scraper may be secured effectively.
