Wiper device including cover

A wiper device of a vehicle comprising:

• a first lever which is linked with a rotation shaft provided on a vehicle body and which rotates with the rotation shaft, a second lever axially supported such that rotation is possible by a supporting shaft provided on the vehicle body at a position set apart from the rotation shaft by a predetermined distance, a third lever linked with a distal end of the first lever and with a distal end of the second lever such that each of them is rotatable and the levers form a four-articulation link system, and a wiper arm linked with the third lever and having a wiper blade connected to its distal end,
• the wiper device further comprising a cover member to be mounted on the third lever,
• the cover member comprising a first cover portion and a second cover portion, where the first cover portion covers a traveling range of the first lever and the second lever and overlaps with a lower portion of a hood of the vehicle in a state in which the device is stopped and the second cover portion extends beyond the hood of the vehicle to cover, together with the first cover portion, the third lever and the traveling range of the first lever and the second lever, and
• the first cover portion and the second cover portion being formed continuously with each other with a step portion provided therebetween, such that in a state in which the device is stopped, a gap between the first cover portion and the hood of the vehicle is set by the step portion.

• a first wiper comprising a first lever which is linked with a rotation shaft provided on a vehicle body and which rotates with the rotation shaft, a second lever axially supported, such that rotation is possible by a supporting shaft provided on the vehicle body at a position set apart from the rotation shaft by a predetermined distance, a third lever linked with a distal end of the first lever and with a distal end of the second lever such that rotation is possible with respect to each and the levers form a four-articulation link system, and a wiper arm linked with the third lever and having a wiper blade connected to its distal end;
• and
• a second wiper which is linked with a second rotation shaft provided on the vehicle body separately from said rotation shaft and which rotates synchronously with said rotation shaft;
• the third lever of the first wiper being located in the direction in which the second wiper is closed, when the second wiper is located at a lower inverted position thereof, and
• a cover member being mounted on the third lever of the first wiper so as to cover the four-articulation link system, the cover member comprising an extension portion formed by extending a side wall opposing the second wiper of the cover member further than other side walls in the lower inverted position.
