  • Patent number: 4276501
    Abstract: A window clearing arrangement particularly for the rear window mounted on an automobile liftgate is provided, being characterized by a control circuit comprising a single relay, the single reversing contact of which enables, according to its position, either wiping by powering the motor-reducer or the stopping of the motor by short-circuiting of the armature. The relay is fed by the first wire, while the second wire powers the defogging system. All of the controls, whether momentary or not, involve one or more suitable switches, one position, however, being reserved for the impulse control of the washer by electrically powering a pump, which simultaneously activates the wiper.
