Windshield washing spray with jet inclination variable as a function of the speed of the vehicle. The present invention relates to a windshield washing spray with jet inclination variable as a function of the speed of the vehicle. Spray characterized in that the body of the spray (1) is mounted on the vehicle body (2) via a thick elastically deformable joint (3) and is provided at its lower part connected to the washing liquid feed conduit (4) with a steel sleeve (5), which is connected by means of a return spring (7), or other elastic member, to a member (6) forming also an end-of-path abutment for said sleeve (5), and secured to a mounting body (8) which is snap-action connected to the vehicle body by means of tongues (9) entering peripheral corresponding openings (10) of the hole (11) for passage of the spray (1), and in that an electromagnet (14) is mounted on the mounting body (8), on the side opposite the return spring (7), positionally adjustably relative to the steel sleeve (5), this electromagnet (14) being controlled by means of an electronic tachymetric device with an adjustable threshold value.
A windshield washing spray with jet inclination variable as a function of the speed of the vehicle, comprising a first fixed spray (1") adapted to direct a jet of washing liquid at a relatively low portion of a windshield, a second fixed spray (33) adapted to direct washing liquid at a relatively high portion of a windshield, an electromagnetic ball valve (34) having an inlet orifice (38) supplying said washing liquid to said valve, a first outlet passage for supplying said liquid to said first spray (1") and a second outlet passage (37') for supplying said liquid to said second spray (33), and means responsive to the speed of the vehicle to actuate said valve (34) so that said liquid passes from said inlet orifice (38) to said first outlet passage (37) at relatively low speed of the vehicle and from said inlet orifice (38) to said second outlet passage (37') at relatively high speed of the vehicle.
