Claims6
A motor vehicle wiper blade, comprising:
- a spring rail;
- and
- a spoiler which extends along a longitudinal direction, wherein a lip is disposed on the spoiler and wherein the spoiler is fastened to the spring rail;
- wherein the spoiler has, along the longitudinal direction, at least a first cutout portion and a second cutout portion which extend in a direction of the lip;
- wherein the motor vehicle wiper blade has an inner circle side and an outer circle side;
- wherein the first and second cutout portions are disposed on the inner circle side of the motor vehicle wiper blade;
- wherein there is no cutout portion on the outer circle side of the motor vehicle wiper blade;
- wherein a first fastener is disposed on the spoiler at a longitudinal center of the motor vehicle wiper blade and wherein the first fastener connects the spoiler to a wiper arm in a force-fitting manner and/or a form-fitting manner;
- wherein at a left distal end and at a right distal end of the motor vehicle wiper blade a respective terminating piece which is configured in a form of an end cap covers respective end portions of the spring rail and of the spoiler;
- wherein a second fastener and a third fastener reach over the spoiler and wherein the second fastener is disposed on the spoiler on the outer circle side and the third fastener is disposed on the spoiler on the inner circle side for fastening the spoiler;
- and wherein the first and second cutout portions are configured such that aerodynamics of the motor vehicle wiper blade are changed in a way such that water pull-in or water pull-back on a motor vehicle window when the motor vehicle is moving at a speed of 60 kilometer/hour to 120 kilometer/hour is avoided in a course of a movement of the motor vehicle wiper blade from a second reversal point back to a first reversal point.
