A connector assembly and wiper blade incorporating same having a base connector, having two longitudinal side walls, a first and second end, and a top surface extending therebetween, wherein the top surface has a pair of cantilevered beams, each provided with a locking tab, extending from a central portion towards each respective end of the base connector. The locking tabs are capable of engaging and securing an aperture in cap or wiper arm. The base connector further has a central recessed portion capable of receiving and securing a top wall of a side adapter. The base connector may further include a base support structure capable of securing the base connector to a wiper blade.

The invention relates to a cover (223) for a connection device designed to be rotatably mounted on an adapter (220) of the connection device, the cover (223) extending mainly between a first end (231) and a second end (232), the first end (231) comprising at least one bearing (235) designed to cooperate with a rod (228) of the adapter (220), the cover (223) being configured to be closed in a first direction of rotation (S1) and to be opened in a second direction of rotation (S2), characterised in that the bearing (235) comprises at least one tab (250) designed to allow the bearing (235) to be disengaged from the rod (228) of the adapter (220), in the first direction of rotation (Si).

A windshield wiper connector is disclosed for connecting a variety of wiper arms with a wiper blade. The connector may include a pivotable cover. The connector may also include a pin passage for receiving a pin-type wiper arm as well as a gaps in the connector positioned around an elevated plateau for receiving a slot-type wiper arm.

A wiper blade and a wiper. The wiper blade comprises a wiping strip and a connection structure, the connection structure comprising: an adapter fixed to the wiping strip, the adapter comprising a first side part and a second side part which are opposite each other, with a first surface and a second surface being disposed on the first side part and the second side part respectively; a connector, the interior of the connector having an opening, a foolproofing part facing the second surface, and a hole in communication with the opening; when the connector is fitted to the adapter in an opposite direction, the first surface obstructs the foolproofing part and the shaft cannot be hinged into the hole via the opening. The foolproofing part can prevent a wiper arm from being fitted to the wiper blade incorrectly.

An adapter (2) intended to link a wiper blade (1) to a driving arm (3) of a vehicle wiping system, the adapter (2) comprising a head (11) and a body (12) held together by means of an attachment device (80), the head (11) having a U-shaped cross section formed from at least one top wall (11a) from which at least two side walls (11b) extend, the body (12) having a U-shaped cross section formed from at least one top panel (12a) from which at least two side walls extend (12b), the U-shaped cross section of the head (11) delimiting an inner space (38) configured to at least partially receive the body (12), characterized in that the adapter (2) comprises at least one guide member for guiding the head (11) relative to the body (12).

A wiper assembly includes a bent arm providing a channel. The bent arm is configured to connect to a shaft of an actuator. The wiper assembly additionally includes a wiper blade slidably received within the channel. A method includes securing a bent arm to a shaft of an actuator, and biasing a wiper blade against a window during the securing.
