The invention proposes a windscreen wiper device for a motor vehicle of the type having a windscreen wiper arm (10), one end of which is mounted so as to be articulated about an articulation axis (A1), between a service position and a raised position, on a drive head (12) mounted on a shaft (14) for driving in rotation about an axis (A0) substantially perpendicular to the articulation axis (A1), of the type in which a free end section of the arm (10) carries rotatably a windscreen wiper blade (11), and of the type having a shroud (30) at least partially covering the longitudinal body of the windscreen wiper arm (10), characterised in that the covering shroud (30) encloses the free end section (40) of the arm (10) and in that the windscreen wiper blade (11) is rotatably mounted on the covering shroud (30).
A windscreen wiper device for a motor vehicle, said device comprising a windscreen wiper arm having a longitudinal body, one end of said wiper arm being articulated on a drive head for movement about an articulation axis between a service position and a raised position, a shaft, said drive head mounted on said shaft for driving said windscreen wiper arm in rotation about another axis substantially perpendicular to said articulation axis, said windscreen wiper arm having a free end section including a free terminal end, a windscreen wiper blade carried by said arm, and a one-piece covering shroud completely covering said longitudinal body of said windscreen wiper arm, said shroud enclosing said free end section including said free terminal end, of said arm and said windscreen wiper blade being mounted on said covering shroud, said shroud and wiper arm being relatively movable with respect to one another upon movement between positions of said wiper arm.
A windscreen wiper device for a motor vehicle, said device comprising a windscreen wiper arm having a longitudinal body, one end of said wiper arm being articulated on a drive head for movement about an articulation axis between a service position and a raised position, a shaft, said drive head mounted on said shaft for driving said windscreen wiper arm in rotation about another axis substantially perpendicular to said articulation axis, said windscreen wiper arm having a free end section including a free terminal end, a windscreen wiper blade carried by said arm, and a one-piece covering shroud at least partially covering said longitudinal body of said windscreen wiper arm, said shroud received on and enclosing said free end section, including said free terminal end, of said arm and said windscreen wiper blade being mounted on said covering shroud, said free end section of said arm being received in a driving housing of said covering shroud, said covering shroud articulated on the drive head about a further axis parallel to said articulation axis, said free end section of said arm is longitudinally movable in said drive housing and tilts relative to said articulation axis, when said windscreen wiper arm pivots about said articulation axis.
