Abstract: A support (30) for the joint hinge of a wiper blade (10) at a hook-shaped end (20) of a bar (18) in a windshield wiper. Owing to an open hub on part of its periphery (28), the support can be slipped on a bearing shank of the wiper blade (10) and, so mounted, be maintained by the hook-shaped end (20) above hub surfaces (46, 62, 66) and ratchet elements (70, 76, 78). The two side walls (32, 34) which are connected by the hub (36) and a plurality of crossbars (60, 64, 70) extend in the longitudinal direction (38), on both sides, towards the hub (34) and the inside widths (40, 42) between the side walls (32, 34) are different at their opposite ends.

Abstract: A connecting piece for connecting a wiper arm to a wiper blade is proposed, which includes yielding regions, so that wiper arms of the most various sizes can be received.

Abstract: 1. The invention is based on a bearing element (30) for hinging a wiper blade (10) to a hook-shaped end (20) of a wiper rod (18) of a windshield wiper, which can be slid with a hub (36), which is open over part of its circumference, onto a supporting bolt (28) of the wiper blade (10) and when mounted, is held by the hook-shaped end (20) by way of contact faces (46, 62, 66) and detent means (70, 76, 78).

Abstract: Bearing part (30) for an articulation of a wiper blade (10) at a hook-shaped end (20) of a wiper rod (18) of a windshield wiper, which bearing part (30) can be placed on a bearing pin (28) of the wiper blade (10) with a hub (36) which is open along a portion of its circumference and is introduced into the hook-shaped end (20) and held by the hook-shaped end (20) in assembled state via contact faces (60, 62, 64, 66, 68) and catch means (50, 52, 88, 90, 92), characterized in that an elongated base body (40) has two arms (42, 44) which are arranged diametrically relative to the hub (36) held in the hub (30) so as to be rotatable coaxial to the hub (36) in a holding clip (46) whose side walls (48, 50) project in the longitudinal direction (38) over lateral surfaces of the base body (40) and are connected with one another by at least one crosspiece (50, 52), wherein the arms (42, 44) are constructed in different ways for receiving wiper rods (18) with different hook-shaped ends (20).

Abstract: The invention relates to a windshield wiper, having a drivably supported wiper arm which on its free end carries a wiper blade, and the wiper blade is joined detachably and pivotably to the wiper arm by means of a retaining bracket, and for the sake of adapting different wiper arms and retaining brackets, the connection is made via an adapter element. The point of departure for the proposal is that the adapter element (28) can be disposed pivotably about 180°, and for the detachable and pivotable connection between the wiper arm (12) and the retaining bracket (22) a detent connection exists both between the adapter element (28) and the wiper arm (12) and between the adapter element (28) and the retaining bracket (22).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a connecting element (1) for connecting a windshield wiper blade (21) to wiper arm hooks (23, 23.1, 28) of different wiper arm hook widths (B, b) and wiper arm hook depths (W, w), which includes a number of different at least partial contact faces (11, 16, 17, 19, 13, 21, 29) for wiper arm hooks (23, 23.1, 28) with different dimensions, having two housing side walls (2, 3) and a center piece (4) disposed between them, wherein these partial contact faces (11, 16, 17, 19, 13, 21, 29) are disposed on a housing side wall (2, 3) in order to compensate for different wiper arm hook widths (B, b) and are disposed on the center piece (4) in order to compensate for different wiper arm hook depths (W, w), and the partial contact faces (11, 16, 17, 19, 13, 21, 29) permit a reception of at least two different wiper arm hooks (23, 23.1, 28) along mounting axes (15, 20) that are disposed at angles to each other.

Abstract: The windshield wiper includes a wiper blade (20), a holding clip (22) for holding the wiper blade (20) and an intermediate piece (28) for pivotally connecting the holding clip (22) together with the wiper blade (22) with different-sized wiper arms (12). The intermediate piece (28) is provided with a receiving area (42) for each different wiper arm. The receiving area (42) has different-sized receiving portions for the different wiper arms. The intermediate piece (28) includes two housing halves (32,34) connected in one piece with each other by an elastic member (36). This elastic member (36) consists of a tubular spring (38) extending around the intermediate piece and connecting the two housing halves, so that the two housing halves may be squeezed together or move apart.

Abstract: A wiper blade is proposed, which is used to clean windows of motor vehicles. The wiper blade has load bearing frame for a wiper strip placed against the window and displaceable over the window crosswise to the longitudinal extent thereof, and a wind deflector strip disposed on the load bearing frame and extending approximately parallel to the wiper strip, which wind deflector strip has a wind baffle facing into the relative wind, one longitudinal edge of which is located nearer the window than its other longitudinal edge located behind the first longitudinal edge in terms of the approach direction of the relative wind. Universal use of the wiper blade is obtained if the wind deflector strip can be mounted suspended from the load bearing frame or standing upright on the load bearing frame, and in each of the two mounting positions has a wind baffle oriented toward the relative wind.
