  • Publication number: 20030196291
    Abstract: The invention proposes a motor vehicle windscreen wiper of the type in which a cover (10), intended completely to cover over a drive head, includes two longitudinal lateral flanks (16) joined together by a transverse back (18) which includes an upper longitudinal part (24) and a downwards-curved part (86) at its rear end. The transverse back of the cover (10) includes an aperture (14) giving access to means for fixing the drive head onto the end of an alternating-sweep drive shaft. A cap (12) is provided, the contour (44, 46, 48) of which is complementary to that (30, 32, 34) of the aperture (14), which is mounted articulated (50, 60) on the cover (10) between a service position in which it blocks off the aperture (14) and an open raised position in which the aperture (14) is clear.
