  • Side mirror wiper
    Patent number: 6691365
    Abstract: A mirror housing contains an electrical motor. A drive arm is mounted to the output shaft of a speed reducer mounted on the motor. A linkage arm rotatably couples the drive arm to a rocker disk which is rotatably mounted within the housing. Three hundred sixty degree rotation of the drive arm by operation of the electric motor imparts a back-and-forth arcuate rocking motion to the rocker disk which in turn imparts a linear back-and-forth motion to a wiper mounted over the mirror glass.
