Abstract: A laser system for providing working laser pulses for interaction with targets, which pass periodically one after another through a destination area, includes a laser pulse emitting device for emitting the working laser pulses. At least one working laser pulse of the working laser pulses is assigned to each respective target of the targets. The laser system further includes a control device for controlling the laser pulse emitting device. The control device is configured to set a respective emission time of each respective working laser pulse such that, as an ON working laser pulse, the respective working laser pulse strikes a respective target in the destination area in order to interact with the respective target, or as an OFF working laser pulse, temporally misses the respective target in the destination area in order not to interact with the respective target.

Abstract: A windscreen wiper device of the flat blade type comprising an elastic, elongated carrier element, as well as an elongated wiper blade of a flexible material, which can be placed in abutment with a windscreen to be wiped, which wiper blade includes at least one longitudinal slit, in which slit at least one longitudinal strip of the carrier element is disposed, which windscreen wiper device comprises a connecting device for a rod-like extension of an oscillating arm, wherein said rod-like extension can be pivotally connected to said connecting device about a pivot axis near a free end thereof, wherein said connecting device comprises a first part and a second part, wherein said rod-like extension of said oscillating arm can be pivotally connected to said first part about said pivot axis, with the interposition of said second part, wherein said first part is connected to said wiper blade and said second part is pivotally connected onto said first part, wherein said second part comprises a channel arranged to re

Abstract: A wind deflector for a windscreen wiper system of a motor vehicle has a windscreen-cleaning apparatus with at least one nozzle for cleaning a windscreen integrated therein. The wind deflector has a wind deflector contour, by way of which an air flow in the region of an associated wiper arm and a wiper blade can be guided. The wind deflector, on its side that faces the wiper blade, has at least one wind-guiding element, which is arranged in the region of the associated nozzle and protrudes, raised, toward the windscreen.

Abstract: A wind deflector for a windscreen wiper system of a motor vehicle has a receptacle for fastening the wind deflector to a component of a wiper arm of the windscreen wiper system. The wind deflector has at least two parts which can be mounted in a divided state on the component of the wiper arm and subsequently can be joined together, as a result of which the wind deflector can be secured to the component of the wiper arm of the windscreen wiper system.

Abstract: A windscreen wiper system for a motor vehicle includes at least one wiper blade which has a slider secured to a wiper blade element. An adapter is connected to the slider in an articulated manner. The adapter is connected to a component of a wiper arm of the windscreen wiper system via a recess. The adapter is connected to a wiper rod of the wiper arm via the recess. A further functional element is arranged on the wiper rod of the wiper arm separately from the adapter.
