Wiper blade to clean windshields, in particular of automobiles

A windshield wiper blade comprising

• an elongated belt-shaped, flexible spring support element having top and bottom surfaces and having a longitudinal slot,
• a wind deflection strip that is located above the top surface of the support element and that extends at least along a longitudinal section of the wiper blade, and
• an elastic rubber wiper strip that can be pressed against a windshield and that is located below the bottom surface of the support element, the wiper strip having a narrow portion extending through the slot of the support element to be directly and securely connected to the wind deflection strip, the wiper strip also having a wider portion connected to the narrow portion, the wider portion facing the top surface of the support element.

A wiper blade (10) to clean windshields (20), in particular of automobiles, provided with an elongated belt-shaped, flexible spring support element (12), which has two flexible rails (28) at a distance from one another, with a separate first component designed as an elastic rubber wiper strip (14) that can be pressed against the windshield (20) located at the bottom belt surface (13) of the support element, which component has longitudinal holding notches (38) for the flexible rails (28), and with a separate second component located at the other upper belt surface (11) of the support element (12) that is designed as a wind deflection strip (24) that extends at least along a longitudinal section of the wiper blade (10), characterized in that the two components (14, 24) are directly and securely connected together at their sides facing one another and external strip edges (31) of the two flexible rails (28) of the support element (12) facing away from one another protrude at least part of the way out from their longitudinal holding notches (38) and that between the flexible rails and the wall of the wind deflection strip (24) that faces them, there is an air gap (50) that remains.
