Abstract: A material and product excellent in stability in the yarn forming process, small in the color shade contrast due to dyeing, to provide natural irregularity, having microscopic unevenness on the surface of a fabric, to provide dry touch to the eyes and by touch, and good in color fastness are disclosed.The polyamide based fibers of the present invention is a thick and thin yarn in which the unevenness of thickness in the length direction of the polyamide based multifilament is 5 to 20% and in which the standard deviation of the stress at 40% elongation in the stress-strain curve with a sample length of 20 cm is 0.3 g/d or less. The thick and thin yarn can be produced by a process, in which an undrawn polyamide based multifilament of 20.times.10.sup.-3 or less in birefringence .DELTA.n is drawn at a low ratio, comprising the steps of falsely twisting it at a position between a feed roller and a draw roller, drawing from 1.5 to 2.5 times, and thermosetting at 100.degree. C. to 200.degree. C.

Abstract: A concealed windshield wiper system is provided with a unique storage arrangement. A wiper pivot and a wiper drive motor mechanism are mounted on a platform of a lift mechanism. Arranged on this platform is a pivot container for storing the wiper pivot. The wiper blade carried by the wiper arm is stored in a wiper blade container formed on another platform of another lift mechanism. These lift mechanisms are operated via a cam and lever mechanism by a single lift drive motor mechanism. This assembly is stored in a cowl box between the rear edge of a hood and the lower end of a windshield of a vehicle. The pivot and wiper blade containers are lifted out of the cowl box to their lift positions according to a predetermined schedule. During operation of the wiper arm, only the pivot container is left in the lift position with the wiper blade lowered to the storage position thereof.
