Abstract
The invention relates to a wiper system with a wiper drive (1), which is comprised of a wiper motor (2) and a gear (3). A wiper arm shaft (14) for a wiper arm (19) can be driven via the output shaft (5) of the gear (3). Linking points (31, 32, 33) for accommodating the wiper drive (1) on a surface (24, 40) are arranged in the housing area (7) of the wiper drive (1). The linking points (31, 32, 33) of the wiper drive (1) each feature a decoupling element (41, 42, 43), in which fastening elements (55) to mount the wiper drive (1) either on a vehicle body (24) or on a screw-down surface (40) are accommodated.
Claims3
Wiper system with a wiper drive, which is comprised of a wiper motor having an output shaft on one end and having an opposite end, the wiper drive also comprised of a gear, via whose output shaft a wiper arm drive shaft of a wiper arm can be driven and linking points for accommodation on a surface are arranged on housing areas of the wiper drive, wherein the linking points of the wiper drive each feature a decoupling element, on which fastening elements to mount the wiper drive either on a vehicle body or on a screw-down surface are accommodated, characterized in that a first linking point is located on the opposite end of the wiper motor and another linking point is located on a gear housing of the gear, via which the wiper drive can be directly or indirectly accommodated in decoupling elements on the vehicle body, in which the wiper drive is embodied as wiper direct drive, in which the output shaft of the gear is connected directly with the wiper arm drive shaft, and characterized in that the decoupling element is set into a ring surface, which delimits a recess in the housing area of the wiper motor or of the gear, in that the decoupling element is embodied as a rotationally symmetrical bushing and features an annular recess on its circumferential surface, and in that a radial wall of the recess is spaced from the circumferential surface of the bushing.
