    [0058] FIGS. 5 and 6 show a further exemplary embodiment of the invention. The following descriptions and the drawings are restricted essentially to the differences between the exemplary embodiments, wherein, as far as identically denoted components, in particular components with identical reference signs, are concerned, reference may also be made, in principle, to the drawings and/or the description relating to the other exemplary embodiments, in particular of FIGS. 1 to 4. In order to distinguish between the exemplary embodiments, the reference signs of the exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 1 to 4 are followed by the letter “a”. In the exemplary embodiments of FIGS. 5 and 6, the letter a has been replaced by the letter “b”.

    [0059] FIG. 5 shows an alternative wiper device 60b. The wiper device 60b comprises a wiper blade 62b. The wiper blade 62b comprises a wiper blade adapter 64b. The alternative wiper device 60b comprises an alternative wiper arm device 10b.

    [0060] The wiper arm device 10b comprises a wiper arm rod 14b. The wiper arm device 10b comprises two fluid lines 16b, 16b′. The wiper arm device 10b comprises a fluidic coupling element 18b. The wiper arm device 10b comprises an electrical heating line 20b. The wiper arm device 10b comprises an electrical and fluidic connection element 56b (cf. FIG. 1).

    [0061] The alternative wiper arm device 10b is designed analogously to the wiper arm device 10a shown in the previous example, apart from an altered fluidic coupling element 18b and an altered arrangement of the two heating lines 20b, 20b′.

    [0062] The fluidic coupling element 18b comprises a stopper element 80b (cf. FIG. 6). The stopper element 80b is formed by two, in particular pin-like, closure elements 86b, 86b′ which are connected to one another by a connecting web 84b. The stopper element 80b closes two heating fixing openings 46b, 46b′ on a coupling main body 40b in a fluid-tight manner. The fluidic coupling element 18b has no hook elements (cf. FIG. 5). The two closure elements 86b, 86b′ each have adhesive bonding passage openings 82b, 82b′ in which, in particular, the heating lines 20b, 20b′ are adhesively bonded in a fluid-tight manner.

    [0063] The heating line 20b extends from an end, which faces away from the fluidic coupling element 18b, in particular a vehicle end 36b (cf. FIG. 1), of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ through one of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ as far as the stopper element 80b of the fluidic coupling element 18b, to which stopper element the heating line 20b is adhesively bonded, and extends back through the other of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ to the end, which faces away from the fluidic coupling element 18b, in particular the vehicle end 36b.

    [0064] The heating line 20b extends from the electrical and fluidic connection element 56b through one of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ to the stopper element 80b and back to the electrical and fluidic connection element 56b through the other of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′.

    [0065] The heating line 20b extends from the electrical and fluidic connection element 56b through one of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ to the stopper element 80b, through the stopper element 80b, and back to the electrical and fluidic connection element 56b through the other of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′.

    [0066] The heating line 20b extends out, in particular from the vehicle end 36b to the fluidic coupling element 18b, through one of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ and extends in each case back, in particular from the fluidic coupling element 18b to the vehicle end 36b, through the other of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′.

    [0067] The heating line 20b is adhesively bonded to the at least one stopper element 80b. The heating line 20b is adhesively bonded, in particular in a fluid-tight manner, to the at least one stopper element 80b at two different points. The heating line 20b is adhesively bonded, in particular in a fluid-tight manner, to the at least one stopper element 80b at the two heating fixing openings 46b, 46b′. The heating line 20b is adhesively bonded, in particular in a fluid-tight manner, to the at least one stopper element 80b at the two closure elements 86b, 86b′ (cf. FIG. 5). The heating line 20b is deflected outside the fluidic coupling element 18b. The heating line 20b extends through each of the two fluid lines 16b, 16b′ once in each case.
