The invention relates to a wiper system for a motor vehicle, comprising a drive arm and a wiper which are connected to one another by a connecting device which comprises a connector secured to the wiper and a connecting shaft, the drive arm comprising a first end via which it is attached to a drive means, and a second end, opposite to the first end in a longitudinal direction of the drive arm, the connecting device comprising a receiving housing for receiving the connecting shaft, the receiving housing comprising an entrance by means of which the connecting shaft is received in the receiving housing and a locking zone for locking the connecting shaft, characterized in that the locking zone is positioned between the entrance of the receiving housing and the second end of the drive arm.

A connecting structure of a wiper arm includes a connecting shaft provided on a wiper arm and a snap-fit provided on a wiper blade. The snap-fit includes a pair of claws defining a groove that can be engaged with the connecting shaft. A slit defined by inner walls facing each other is provided on both sides of the pair of claws in a longitudinal direction of the wiper blade. A first protrusion protruding toward inside of the slit is provided on one of the inner walls, and a second protrusion protruding toward inside of the slit is provided on the other of the inner walls. The first and second protrusions are arranged offset from each other in a direction along an axial direction of the connecting shaft.

A windshield wiper connector is disclosed for connecting a variety of wiper arms with a wiper blade. The connector may include a rotating cap as well as an adapter. The adapter may be inserted into a trapezoidal groove, and the adapter may have a pin passage for receiving a pin from a wiper arm. The groove may receive a trapezoidal roller from a wiper arm. The connector may include a channel, and a bayonet style wiper arm may be secured in the channel as well as by the cap and by a pillar projecting from the channel. Other similar wiper arms may be connected with a wiper blade using the disclosed inventive concepts. A wiper blade assembly having a wiper strip, a force distribution structure, and a connector is also disclosed.

A windshield wiper connector having a peripheral wall having at least two opposing peripheral side walls, a top surface extending from one of the two opposing peripheral side walls to the other; and a channel formed in the top surface, and extending longitudinally along the top of the connector. The connector including a groove near to the proximal end of the connector and sized to be capable of engaging a trapezoidal roller of a wiper arm. The opposing peripheral side walls having a retaining pin aperture aligned with one another and sized to be capable of accepting a retaining pin of at least one pin-type windshield wiper arm. The channel on the top of the connector sized to be capable of accepting a bayonet style wiper arm. A wiper blade assembly having a wiper strip, a force distribution structure, and a connector as described above.

A connecting structure of a wiper arm includes a connecting shaft provided on a wiper arm and a snap-fit provided on a wiper blade. The snap-fit includes a pair of claws defining a groove that can be engaged with the connecting shaft. A slit defined by inner walls facing each other is provided on both sides of the pair of claws in a longitudinal direction of the wiper blade. A first protrusion protruding toward inside of the slit is provided on one of the inner walls, and a second protrusion protruding toward inside of the slit is provided on the other of the inner walls.

Related are a wiper-fastening apparatus, a wiper blade assembly, and a wiper device. The wiper-fastening apparatus configured to fasten a wiper arm coupling adaptor to a wiper blade includes a base attached to or detached from a clamp fixed to the wiper blade and on which the adaptor is mounted to be hinge-rotated. Here, the base includes a hinge portion which is hinge-coupled to the adaptor and a lateral portion extending downward from both sides in a width direction of the hinge portion and inside which the wiper blade is mounted. Also, the lateral portion includes a protruding portion biased from the clamp or held by the clamp in a vertical direction depending on an angle formed by a longitudinal direction of the wiper blade and a longitudinal direction of the hinge portion.

A connector for a windshield wiper, and a wiper blade assembly including same, that accommodates slotted receiving portions of windshield wiper arms. The connector for connecting a windshield wiper assembly to a wiper arm may have a peripheral wall having at least two opposing peripheral side walls and a top surface extending from one of the two opposing peripheral side walls to the other. The opposing peripheral side walls may each have a guide pin aligned with one another and sized to be capable of slidably engaging slots of windshield wiper arm.

An inclination mechanism TM1 is provided at a wiper blade 30. The inclination mechanism TM1 inclines the wiper blade 30 with respect to a surface 11 a, so that a center Ct1 of a U-shaped hook part 23b is disposed forward in a wiping direction with respect to a center Ct2 of a blade rubber 50. Accordingly, at the time of each of forward wiping and return wiping of the wiper blade 30, it is possible to correctly incline the blade rubber 50 with respect to the surface 11 a.
