Abstract: The present invention is a windshield wiper with jet ejectors for use in vehicles. Each windshield wiper with jet ejectors includes a movable arm that oscillates a frame. Frame is provided with and oscillates along with at least one flexible element and a jet ejector. Cleaning fluid tube is connected to jet ejector and supplies cleaning fluid to jet ejector. Oscillation of frame causes distribution of cleaning fluid in jet ejector. Jet ejector has a number of openings though which distributed cleaning fluid is ejected out on windshield of vehicle. Simultaneous action of ejection of cleaning fluid and oscillation of flexible element(s) provide cleaning of windshield along the entire length of frame. Thus, conventional partial cleaning of windshield due to inappropriate distribution of cleaning fluid is eliminated by distributing fluid along the entire length of windshield wiper. Appropriate and fast cleaning of windshield increases visibility improvement for the driver.
