Abstract: A wiper arm for use with a wiper blade, which is mechanically and detachably connectable to the wiper arm and to a wiper arm adapter by joining in an assembly direction using a wiper blade adapter, includes an electrical connecting element, disposed on a wiper arm side of the wiper blade adapter, configured to reversibly establish a connection to a second electrical connecting element on a wiper blade side of the wiper blade adapter. The connection between the electrical connecting element and the second electrical connecting element is formed along the assembly direction. The electrical connecting element and the second electrical connecting element are mounted floating. The electrical connecting element and the second electrical connecting element are mounted deflectable in a spatial plane oriented crossways to the assembly direction.
Abstract: The invention relates to an accessory for wiper of motor vehicle comprising at least one heating channel (16; 16a, 16b) for receiving a heating element of the wiper, characterized in that said accessory (6; 10; 26) is made of a first part (17; 27) movable with respect to a second part (18; 28) in order to open said at least one heating channel (16; 16a, 16b) longitudinally. This invention also relates to a wiper of motor vehicle comprising such accessory.
