  • Dynamic sweep angle measurement for fault monitoring of windshield wiper systems
    Patent number: 11999320
    Abstract: A windshield wiper system (WWS) is provided and includes a wiper blade assembly drivable along a first sweep angle, an internal wiper trigger disposed to move with the wiper blade assembly, a measurement system configured to monitor a position of the internal wiper trigger from which a corresponding position of the wiper blade assembly relative to the first sweep angle is measurable and to output a sweep angle feedback signal corresponding to monitoring results and a controller. The controller is receptive of the sweep angle feedback signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Windshield wiper system with an internal trigger
    Patent number: 11613233
    Abstract: An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a first end of the wiper arm, and an output shaft coupled to a second end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade is configured to clean water, dirt, and other debris from the windshield of the aircraft. The output shaft is configured to rotate and cause the wiper arm with the coupled wiper blade to sweep across and clean the windshield. A sensor and a trigger are coupled to an actuator to ensure accurate sweep angle and parking position of the wiper arm and wiper blade.
