  • Patent number: 11893665
    Abstract: As a container (3) is filled with a material to a very small tolerance, a method displays an evolution of a measured current filling quantity (Q) of the material, from a starting filling quantity Q0 to a target filling quantity QT. A measuring means (5) measures the measured current filling quantity as filling proceeds. A display means (10) shows a first pointer (11), a position X of which is indicative of the measured current filling quantity. The position X on the display means is a monotonic function of the measured current filling quantity. As the measured current filling quantity enters a tolerance subrange on either side of the target filling quantity, a function that defines the position of the first pointer is changed to permit accurate filling, but in a manner so that a user of the measuring means does not perceive a discontinuity in the display.

  • Patent number: 9764716
    Abstract: A wiper arm arrangement with a wiper arm of a windscreen wiper system of a vehicle and an attachment element having at least one line. The attachment element can be coupled to a connecting element designed for holding a wiper blade and for connecting the wiper blade to the wiper arm. Due to the coupling, at least one corresponding line of the connecting element can be joined onto the at least one line of the attachment element. The connecting element can be fitted onto the attachment element in an installation direction which coincides at least substantially with a direction of longitudinal extent of the wiper arm. The attachment element is arranged on the wiper arm so as to be movable in the direction of longitudinal extent of the wiper arm.

  • Patent number: 9604600
    Abstract: Assembly for the production of a wiping system, comprising a terminal part (2) of a wiper arm designed to move a wiper blade (3) over the surface to be wiped and a hydraulic connector (30) comprising at least one piping element (31, 32) for conveying a liquid to the wiper blade (3), the said terminal part comprising at least one means (8) for supporting the said hydraulic connector ensuring that it is held longitudinally with reference to the wiper arm. It is characterized in that the said supporting means allows a movement of the said hydraulic connector (30) in a direction convergent with the longitudinal direction.

  • Publication number: 20130257107
    Abstract: A wiper blade for a windscreen wiper of a motor vehicle includes a clamp for fixing a wiping element that wipes the screen during the wiping operation of the windscreen wiper. The clamp has a base plate with at least one contact element. The contact element is to be brought against a water deflector that restricts the wiping movement of the wiper blade during the wiping operation. The contact element is a cushioning element, which has a higher level of flexibility than the base plate.
