Abstract
A wiper system for motor vehicles is described in which a pivot-shaft assembly is fixed to the one end of a pipe-like carrier held by way of its other end on a stud of a motor carrier member stable in form. Wiper systems of this kind can also be produced at low costs for motor vehicles in which the assembly conditions are difficult.
Claims20
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising at least one pivot-shaft assembly fixed to one end of a pipe-like carrier, said carrier having another end which is rigidly connected to a motor carrier member for receiving a drive motor, wherein said another end of the pipe-like carrier is plugged onto a stud formed by said motor carrier member and is fixed thereto, said pipe-like carrier having a generally circular, uniform cross-section throughout the axial length thereof.
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising:
- at least one pivot-shaft assembly;
- a motor carrier member;
- and an elongated tubular carrier rigidly interconnecting said pivot-shaft assembly and motor carrier member by a system of outwardly extending studs formed thereon to form a substantially self-supporting structure, said tubular carrier having a generally circular, uniform cross-section throughout the axial length thereof.
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising:
- at least one pivot-shaft assembly defining a first, generally outwardly directed stud portion;
- a motor carrier member adapted for mounting an electric motor to drive said wiper system, said member defining a second, generally outwardly directed stud portion;
- and an elongated tubular carrier including a first open end receiving said first stud portion therein to rigidly interconnect said tubular carrier and pivot-shaft assembly, and a second open end receiving said second stud portion therein to rigidly interconnect said tubular carrier and motor carrier member to form a substantially self-supporting structure, said tubular carrier having a generally circular, uniform cross-section throughout the axial length thereof.
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising at least one pivot-shaft assembly fixed to one end of a pipe-like carrier, said carrier having another end which is rigidly connected to a motor carrier assembly including a carrier member and a drive motor, wherein said another end of the pipe-like carrier is plugged onto a stud formed by said motor carrier assembly and is fixed thereto said drive motor comprising a gear housing closed by a lid and wherein the carrier member is integrally formed with the gear housing.
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising at least one pivot-shaft assembly fixed to one end of a pipe-like carrier, said carrier having another end which is rigidly connected to a motor carrier assembly including a carrier member and a drive motor, wherein said another end of the pipe-like carrier is plugged onto a stud formed by said motor carrier assembly and is fixed thereto, said rive motor comprising a gear housing closed by a lid wherein the lid is formed as a die-cast member and wherein the carrier member is integrally formed with the lid.
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising at least one pivot-shaft assembly fixed to one end of a pipe-like carrier, said carrier having another end which is rigidly connected to a motor carrier assembly including a carrier member and a drive motor, wherein said another end of the pipe-like carrier is plugged onto a stud formed by said motor carrier assembly and is fixed thereto, said rive motor comprising a gear housing including two complimentary gear housing halves, wherein the carrier member is integrally formed with on half of the gear housing.
A wiper system for motor vehicles comprising at least one pivot-shaft assembly fixed to one end of a pipe-like carrier, said carrier having another end which is rigidly connected to a motor carrier member for receiving a drive motor, wherein said another end of the pipe-like carrier is plugged onto a stud formed by said motor carrier member and is fixed thereto, wherein said pipe-like carrier is divided into two parts which are inter-connected by a noise dampening element.
