  • Publication number: 20080289137
    Abstract: An aerodynamic windshield wiper arm that includes an integrated aerodynamic element that causes down force to be applied to the wiper arm as the air speed across the wiper arm increases, such as in high winds and/or at high speeds. The aerodynamic element is integrally formed with the wiper arm such that it is not easily removed, unlike aerodynamic attachments. The wiper arm is formed using an injection molding process and a plastic material. The aerodynamic element may be in the form of an airfoil or a lip or any other shape capable of causing down force when high winds contact the wiper arm. The one-piece wiper arm provides improved functionality and improved aesthetics over previous wiper arms.
