Abstract: Various embodiments of a warning indicator for use with wiper blades are provided. In one embodiment, the warning indicator has a housing, a counting unit disposed in the housing, an indicating unit exposed on the housing and an electrical source. The housing is coupled to an oscillating wiper blade of a windshield wiper device. The counting unit is configured to detect oscillating movements of the wiper blade one at a time. The counting unit is configured such that an oscillating number of the wiper blade is accumulatively increased. The indicating unit indicates a warning under control of the counting unit when the oscillating number comes to a predetermined value. The electrical source supplies an electrical power to the counting unit and the indicating unit.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a device for connecting a flat wiper blade to various wiper arms are provided. In one embodiment, the connecting device includes: a joint fixed to a frame of a flat wiper blade; a bracket snap-mounted on the joint; and an adaptor mounted to the bracket. The bracket has a pivot shaft extending perpendicular to a length direction of the frame and having a pivot bore therethrough. The adaptor has a pair of side wall portions. Fitting apertures are perforated in the side wall portions. The adaptor is mounted to the bracket in such a manner that both ends of the pivot shaft are fitted to the fitting apertures. The adaptor is configured to be suitable for differently-configured distal ends of the wiper arms. The connecting device connects a single flat wiper blade to various wiper arms.

Abstract: A negative resist composition used in a liquid-crystal display element is disclosed. The negative resist composition according to the present invention includes a binder resin consisting of a copolymer including four predetermined monomers, a (meth)acryl monomer including at least 3 (meth)acryl groups, a (meth)acryl monomer including one or two (meth)acryl groups and a photo-initiator. The negative resist composition according to the present invention may be useful to significantly increase the manufacturing yield because it shows an extremely low brittleness during a bonding process or a hot process due to good physical properties such as film retention, pattern stability, adhesion to a substrate, and chemical resistance, as well as good flexibility upon formation of the pattern.
