Device for linking a wiper blade to a wiper arm

Abstract

A device for connecting a wiper blade (10) for windows of motor vehicles to a driven wiper arm (19), guided on the motor vehicle, in which the wiper blade has a striplike elongated, spring-elastic support element (12) for an elongated, rubber-elastic wiper strip (14), disposed parallel to the longitudinal axis on the support element (12) and capable of being pressed against the window (26), from each of whose two long sides a respective projection (36, 38) protrudes as a connection means toward the wiper blade; the common longitudinal axis (35) of the two projections is crosswise to the longitudinal axis of the support element and is located in a plane parallel to the window, and each projection engages a recess 62, assigned to it, in the wiper arm (19). A connecting device that is especially favorable in terms of the choice of materials is obtained if the projections (36, 38) are disposed on a separate component (18) that is firmly joined to the support element (12).
