Abstract: A wiper apparatus having a swinging limiting device for limiting the further swinging of a link arm when the link arm reaches a limit of a swinging range. The swing limiting device being provided without increasing the number of parts of the wiper apparatus or requiring reinforcement of any parts. A limiting piece that makes up the swinging limiting device is formed to protrude from a first link arm and comes into contact with an edge portion of a first link rod plate-like section when the link arm swings past an upper turning position to reach the limit of the swinging range that exists slightly before the first link arm and a first link rod become aligned.
