Abstract: There is described a spare wheel arrangement for a motor car, in which the spare wheel and the fuel tank are disposed adjacent one another below the rear loading area in a partly overlapping manner and in which the spare wheel is disposed in a depression in the floor and the fuel tank is disposed below the floor by means of support straps, the spare wheel having a tendency to rise at its forward end from the depression in the case of a rear-end collision.The front end of the depression 6 is covered by a capture plate 12 which, in the case of a rear end collision at relatively low speeds, acts in conjunction with the rim 10 of the spare wheel 7 to brace the floor against excessive deformation which would endanger the fuel tank.

Abstract: In the case of a windscreen wiper arm for vehicle windows with a fastening piece connected torsionally rigid to a hollow wiper shaft extending through a wiper bearing and a wiper arm connected with this around a swivel axle running across the wiper shaft, which has in a flexible plastic part covering the fitting a washer nozzle connected to the hollow wiper shaft, the flexible plastic part is made as a known cover (19) in register with the swivel axle (15) of the wiper arm (16), which is also in register via an internal ball pan (21) with the ball - nipple outer end (22) of the hollow wiper shaft (6) in order to ensure a desired adjustment of the washer nozzle (25) disposed in the flexible plastic part.

Abstract: In a wiper shaft bushing assembly with a washer jet for motor vehicle screens, in which the wiper shaft is guided in a wiper bushing and is surrounded by an elastic plastic sleeve in which a washer jet is located. The one-piece plastic sleeve surrounds the wiper bushing and the elongated wiper shaft preferably eccentrically. The sleeve has shaped in its wall located farthest from the wiper shaft a closed off liquid channel which is connected on the inner end to a lateral tube connection for connection to the washer pump and on its outer end to a ball socket for receiving a spherical directable nozzle body of the washer jet.

Abstract: A vehicle roof having a moveable panel arranged in a framed roof aperture.
