The system concerns a gear motor for a motor vehicle wiping system comprising:—an electric motor comprising a rotor, a stator and a rotating shaft solidly attached to the rotor,—a reducing mechanism connecting the rotating shaft and an output shaft of the gear motor. According to the invention, a roller bearing (23) guides the rotating shaft (22) at one of the longitudinal ends of the rotating shaft, said roller bearing (23), arranged inside the rotor and stator assembly, housed in an inner recess of the rotor, and in which a hollow support bears the magnetic elements and is arranged coaxially and connected in rotation with the rotating shaft (22), said hollow support (25) covering said roller bearing (23) guiding the longitudinal end of the rotating shaft (20) on the side of the electric motor (2), the axial locking of the roller bearing (23) on the rotating shaft (22) being obtained by pressing against the inner race of the roller bearing (23) on the inner wall of the hollow support (25), directly or indirectly through the intermediary of a spacer (8).

A method for attaching a plastic barrel configured to guide an output shaft of a mechanical device to a housing for the mechanical device is disclosed. The housing includes a chimney delimited by an upper edge and a base, the chimney being arranged to partially surround the output shaft, the plastic barrel having a lateral protuberance. The method involves at least the following steps: inserting a first end of the plastic barrel into the chimney of the housing until the lateral protuberance axially abuts against the upper edge of the chimney, and at least partially deforming the first end of the plastic barrel in order to form an axial counter-abutment.

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 windshield wiper system has an articulating pivot for wiping a curved glass surface of a vehicle. The articulating pivot has a pivot shaft assembly (64) having a first pivot ball (160) separated by a distance from a second pivot ball (166). The pivot shaft assembly is encased in an outer housing (158) and each pivot ball is supported by a bearing. A pinion gear is integrated with one of the first pivot ball, the second pivot ball, and/or the pivot shaft. A rack gear is integrated into one of the bearings and/or the housing. Rotational movement of the pinion gear along the rack gear articulates the pivot shaft as the pivot shaft is rotated.

The invention relates to an assembly (200) for connecting a windscreen wiper drive arm to a vehicle drive shaft, the connection assembly (200) comprising at least one fixing device (220) configured to rotatably connect the drive arm to the drive shaft and at least one cover (210) mounted pivotably on the fixing device (220) by means of a pivoting connection (600), the cover (210) being configured to adopt a closed position in which it prohibits access to a fixing zone (300) between the fixing device (220) and the drive shaft or an open position in which it permits access to the fixing zone (300) between the fixing device (220) and the drive shaft, this pivoting connection (600) comprising at least one bore and at least one trunnion received in the bore, characterized in that the connection assembly (200) comprises at least one device for locking the open position of the cover (210), this locking device being arranged on the inner perimeter of the bore and on the outer perimeter of the trunnion.

The invention relates to a wiper motor (10) with a shaft (30) for driving a wiper arm (1), wherein the shaft (30) projects through an opening (31) of a housing (15) and in the region of the opening (31) is mounted radially in a bore (55) of at least one substantially sleeve-shaped element (40), and wherein the sleeve-shaped element (40) is fixed at least axially in the region of the housing (15). According to the invention, it is provided that the sleeve-shaped element (40) has at least two different cross-sections (41, 42), a first cross-section (41) which is designed to protrude axially through the opening (31) and a second cross-section (42) which is designed to be accommodated in an axially fixed manner within said opening (31).

Windscreen wiper device for windscreens with variable curvature, comprising a secondary shaft rotating about its secondary axis between starting and final secondary positions, and a primary shaft on which the wiper blade arm is mounted rotating in an alternating manner about its own primary axis between starting and final primary positions. The primary shaft is mounted in the secondary shaft, such that their corresponding axes form a first acute angle () with respect to one another. The device further comprises a delay device kinematically connecting the driving means with the secondary shaft to cause rotation in the secondary shaft such that when the primary shaft has performed 50% of the rotation between the starting primary position and the final primary position, the secondary shaft has performed between 0% and 30% of the rotation between the starting secondary position and said final secondary position.

The invention relates to a wiper motor (10), with a shaft (28) for driving a wiper arm (1), wherein the shaft (28) projects through an opening (29) of a housing (15) and wherein in the region of the opening (29) the shaft (28) is mounted radially in a bore in an at least substantially sleeve-shaped element (30; 30a), wherein the sleeve-shaped element (30; 30a) is fixed at least axially in the region of the housing (15), and wherein the sleeve-shaped element (30; 30a) has at least two different cross-sections (33; 33a, 34), a first cross-section (33; 33a) which is designed to protrude axially at least through the opening (29) and a second cross-section (34) which is designed to be axially fixed within said opening (29) or within a receiving space (25) of said housing (15).
