Wiper blade for a wiping system, in particular for wiping a camera of a motor vehicle, the wiper blade comprising a connection device suitable for releasable connection to a drive shaft of the wiper blade, said connection device comprising a first orientation which allows mounting/dismounting relative to a drive shaft, and a second orientation which does not allow such mounting/dismounting.
Wiper blade for windshield wiper device and corresponding windshield wiper device
The invention relates to a blade for a windshield wiper device and to a corresponding windshield wiper device. The blade comprises a blade body for wiping said windshield surface and a longitudinal rib. The body has a first housing extending longitudinally inside the body and having at least one insertion end. The rib has a cross-section complementary to the cross-section of the first housing. Furthermore, the rib comprises a plurality of interlocking members protruding from its surface by way of a harpoon with an interlocking end. The plurality of interlocking members is oriented such that they allow the insertion of the first end of the rib through the insertion end for assembling the blade, but prevent the extraction of the rib from the first housing.

A wiper unit for an automobile windshield wiper system has at least one wiper arm connectable to a wiper drive of the windshield wiper system and at least one wiper blade supported by the wiper arm. In order to provide a lightweight wiper unit that can be produced cost-effectively and offers greater design freedom, at least one fiber-reinforced nonmetallic strip is arranged on the outside of the wiper arm and/or the wiper blade. That nonmetallic strip extends over at least half the length of the wiper arm or wiper blade, is connected to the wiper arm or the wiper blade in a substance-bonded manner, and is arranged at least in part on a side of the wiper arm or wiper blade which is arranged facing or facing away from an automobile windshield which is to be wiped.
