A wiper arm and assembly are disclosed. The wiper arm has a wiper arm holder, connected at one end to an output portion of a driving mechanism for the wiper arm that drives the wiper arm to swing back and forth in an outward-swinging direction, an extension arm pivotally connected to the other end of the wiper arm holder, a wiper arm end member located on the side of the wiper arm opposite to the wiper arm holder and configured to hold a wiper blade, and a washer assembly having at least a first nozzle, and a first conduit in fluid communication with the first nozzle. The first nozzle includes a nozzle unit, a first connector for the first conduit, and a bridge channel located between them, above the blade. The bridge channel is partially aligned with a segment of the wiper arm end member that is located above the blade.

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.

The invention relates to a connector (6) for assembling a motor vehicle actuating arm with a wiper blade (2), said connector comprising; a transverse pin (8) intended to be linked to an actuating arm, said transverse pin (8) being located transversely between a first and a second lateral wall (10a, 10b) of the connector (6), a lateral connection interface (11) supported by one of the two lateral walls (10a, 10b), characterized in that the connector (6) moreover comprises at least one latching tab (19a, 19b) projecting from the lateral wall (10b) supporting the lateral connection interface (11), said latching tab (19a, 19b) being configured to cooperate with a lateral edge (20) of the connection platform (7).

The present invention also relates to a connection device (3) and a wiper device (1).

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.

A connector for a wiper blade, the connector is configured to cooperate pivotably, by a transverse hinge pin, with an adapter designed to allow an articulation link between the blade and a driving arm, the connector includes a body provided with two opposite side flanges, defining a housing designed to receive the adapter, and a pin between the flanges for the articulation link of the blade to the arm, the flanges include, at each of the ends of the hinge pin, a shoulder configured to allow axial guiding of the articulation link between the blade and the arm, the side flanges is configured to allow lateral flexion of the adapter bearing against the shoulder.

The invention proposes an adapter (12) which comprises a front body (44) of convex external profile, intended to be received in a concave front closed-end (28) of a U-shaped end hook of a wiper arm, and at least one branch (50) which extends longitudinally towards the rear from the front body (44) and which carries a projecting locking stud (62) intended to be received in a locking slot (34) of the end hook, characterized in that it comprises a series of transverse notches (86A, 86B, 86C) for the longitudinal positioning of the adapter, these being longitudinally offset relative to one another and one or another of which is Intended to collaborate with a facing transverse edge of the end hook according to the dimension of the end hook, thus allowing one and the same model of adapter to be used for connecting wiper arms of different sizes.

The invention relates to a connecting device (8) intended to join a wiper blade (4) to a driving arm (2) of a wiping system (1) for a vehicle, comprising at least one connector (9) and a cover (11) mounted in a rotatable manner on the connector (9), the connecting device (8) comprising at least one holding device (22) for holding the cover (11) on the connector (9) in at least one position, characterized in that the holding device (22) determines the position of the cover (11) on the connector (9), limiting the rotation of this cover (11) on the connector (9) in two directions of rotation (S1, S2).

A system and method are provided that enables windshield wiper blades to be replaced without the complexity of removing and reattaching adapters to the wiper arms with every wiper blade replacement cycle. The wiper blade adapter is reusable and stays connected to the windshield wiper arm while providing a simple connecting system that enables the attachment of the wiper blade to the base of the adapters. The adapters are made of engineered plastic that does not wear as quickly as the rubber squeegee and does not need to be replaced as often as the wiper blade. The reusable wiper blade adapter employs a simple mating connector on the wiper blade that provides for an intuitive motion to attach and detach from the base of the adapter thus providing for a simpler blade replacement process.

Provided is a wiper arm including: an arm head in which a base end is attached to a swing shaft; an arm shank in which a base end is attached to a tip of the arm head; an arm piece in which a base end is attached to a tip of the arm shank; a washer tube; a washer nozzle attached to a tip of the washer tube; and a cover member covering at least the surrounding of a part of the arm piece and the washer tube in a longitudinal direction. The cover member includes: a first cover body, having a top wall portion, and side wall portions protruding from both sides of the top wall portion in a short-side direction; and a second cover body, attached to the side wall portions and disposed to face the top wall portion.

Streamlined flat windscreen wiper (1), in particular of a vehicle, characterized in that it comprises: a longitudinal wiper blade (8), at least one longitudinal stiffening spine (6), a longitudinal member (7) for holding said wiper blade and said stiffening spine, a longitudinal fairing (2, 3) comprising two end caps (3) and a central mount (2) extending between the end caps and being linked thereto, the mount comprising means for fixing to said stiffening spine or to said member for holding this spine.
