Abstract
The present invention relates to a wiper blade assembling adapter, a wiper blade assembly, and a wiper apparatus. There is provided a wiper blade assembling adapter for coupling a wiper blade to a wiper arm, which has a distal end at which a plurality of coupling elements facing each other protrude inward from each side surface surrounding the adapter, the wiper blade assembling adapter including a main body part coupled to the wiper blade and a locking part rotatably provided in the main body part.
Claims12
A wiper blade assembling adapter for coupling a wiper blade to a wiper arm, which has a distal end at which a plurality of coupling elements facing each other protrude inward from each side surface surrounding the adapter, the wiper blade assembling adapter comprising:
- a main body part coupled to the wiper blade;
- and
- a locking part rotatably provided in the main body part,
- wherein
- the main body part includes a plurality of guide parts including a first guide part and a second guide part, each having a) an insertion part into which a coupling element of the plurality of coupling elements of the wiper arm is inserted in a first direction and b) a catching part which extends from a distal end of the insertion part in a second direction different from the first direction and which is configured to block movement of the coupling element in the first direction after the coupling element moves in the second direction, the main body part having a hinge part disposed at one side of the main body part, and
- the locking part has a) a rotary surface which is rotatably coupled to the hinge part and b) a cover surface which extends from the rotary surface and covers an outer surface of the wiper arm that surrounds the main body part, and
- wherein the cover surface has a cover element that extends from a distal end toward the guide part, and the cover element covers at least the insertion part of the first guide part in a locking state.
A wiper blade assembly comprising:
- a wiper blade which has a close contact member configured to come in close contact with a surface of a target of close contact;
- and
- an adapter which is fastened to the wiper blade and to and from which a wiper arm is attached and detached,
- wherein
- the adapter includes a main body part coupled to the wiper blade and a locking part rotatably provided in the main body part,
- the main body part includes a) an insertion part into which a coupling element, which protrudes from a side surface of the wiper arm that surrounds a side surface of the main body part, is inserted and b) a catching part configured to catch the coupling element seated thereon after passing through the insertion part, and
- the locking part has a) a rotary surface which is rotatably connected to the main body part and b) a cover surface which covers an outer surface of the wiper arm that covers an outer surface of the main body part, and
- wherein the cover surface has a cover element that extends from a distal end toward the guide part, and the cover element covers at least the insertion part of the first guide part in a locking state.
