Patent number: 8698020Abstract: A wiper holder to which a wiper is attached has an attachment surface including a positioning boss configured to position the wiper by being passed through a positioning hole in the wiper, a positioning protrusion configured to position a first edge of the wiper, and a swage boss configured to receive a second edge of the wiper. The first edge of the wiper contacts the positioning protrusion to position the first edge of the wiper and the wiper is secured to the wiper holder by the swage boss being swaged while the positioning boss is passed through the positioning hole in the wiper and the second edge of the wiper being received by the swage boss.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2011Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Alps Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shinji Kikuchi, Hideki Abe, Junichi Hosogoe, Tsuguhisa Hayashida

Patent number: 8252395Abstract: An injection-molded body according to the present invention includes a tubular body portion, an airtight seal surface formed on a peripheral surface of the body portion near one end of the body portion, and a plurality of undercuts disposed at positions around the peripheral surface of the body portion that are closer to the end than the airtight seal surface is. The undercuts prevent a seal member mounted on the airtight seal surface from falling off, in which a clearance is formed between a peripheral wall and the undercuts. The peripheral wall defines an inner hole of the body portion, and the clearance accommodates deformation of the undercuts in radial directions.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2011Date of Patent: August 28, 2012Assignee: Alps Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shinji Kikuchi, Hideki Abe, Junichi Hosogoe, Tsuguhisa Hayashida, Hitoshi Homma
