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.
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.
Adapter for connecting a wiper to a drive arm of a motor vehicle wiper system
The subject of the invention is an adapter (100) intended to connect a wiper to a drive arm of a vehicle wiper system, the adapter (100) comprising a head (1) and a body (2) which extend in the continuation of one another in a longitudinal direction of the adapter (100), the adapter (100) comprising a means (6, 61) of rotational connection to a connector (8) attached to the wiper, the adapter (100) being formed at least by a top wall (10, 20) from which there extend at least two lateral flanks (11a, 11b, 21a) so as to delimit an internal volume (101) in which the connector (8) is able to extend, characterized in that the adapter (100) comprises at least one centering means (3) for centering it in a direction perpendicular to the top wall (10, 20) with respect to the drive arm.
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.
Rear beam arm and blade assembly
A stepped-designed beam arm wiper assembly has a beam arm that locks into a mounting head such that the beam arm can be disconnected from the mounting head for servicing a wiper blade attached to the beam arm. A head cover is attached to the mounting head via hinges on either side of the head cover which allow the head cover to open off the head on either pin hinges of the head, and can be pressed onto the head and retained on. The other end of the beam arm is inserted into an adapter which snaps onto a rear wiper blade coupler via lead-in hole and trunnion connection. The beam arm has an airfoil with a stepped design to match the head cover, adapter, and blade assembly stepped design.
