Abstract:
A connector between a windscreen wiper and a drive arm, with the wiper extending in a longitudinal direction, and the connector being capable of being installed in a free end of the arm, includes an attachment part equipped with a housing open towards a bottom and allowing removable attachment according to a vertical direction of the wiper with the connector, and elastically deformable locking means having a portion that is capable of ensuring locking in the longitudinal direction of the connector in an installed position thereof in the free end of the arm. The attachment part is designed to cooperate with an installation element other than the locking means and is permanently fixed to the wiper. The locking means comprise a tab that extends in the longitudinal direction.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a crank (14) which is intended for the windscreen wiper mechanism of a motor vehicle. The inventive crank is of the type that comprises a horizontal body (16) having a first end (14a) which is linked in rotation to a wiper arm and a second end (14b) which is articulated to a connecting rod. The aforementioned body (16) comprises: a segment (22) which can be deformed in order to adjust the distance between the ends (14a, 14b) of the crank (14), and a longitudinal oblong hole (24) which divides the aforementioned segment (22) into two deformable longitudinal branches (26) which are symmetrical in relation to a center line of said segment (22). The invention is characterized in that the oblong hole (24) takes the form of a quadrilateral with two essentially-perpendicular diagonals (E1, E2), the larger diagonal (E1) extending along the main axis (C) of symmetry of the segment (22) and intersecting the small diagonal (E2) at the midpoint thereof.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an adapter for adapting a main bracket of a wiper blade to the coupling section of a wiper arm of a wiper mechanism. Said adapter comprises an insertion pin, which is held at one end and which is provided for being laterally inserted into a locating opening on the main bracket, whereby said locating opening extends transversal to the wiper blade longitudinal axis. The adapter also comprises a cylindrical cavity which is provided on the insertion pin, has an insertion opening and which serves to accommodate a pivot pin of the coupling section of the wiper arm. A first bearing section is provided in the area of the insertion opening and is provided for resting against the area of the coupling section that holds the pivot pin. The adapter has a second bearing section located on the side opposite the insertion opening and is provided for resting against the stop of a projection of the coupling section, whereby said projection overlaps, at least in sections, the adapter when mounted.
Abstract:
A flat wiper blade, for cleaning windscreens on vehicles, including a spray duct with spray openings on at least one longitudinal side of a wiper blade for applying a washing fluid or cleaning fluid to a windscreen, a port for connecting the at least one spray duct to at least one outer line for feeding the washing fluid, and an adapter for connecting the flat wiper blade to a wiper arm of a wiper device, where the port is provided between the adapter and a wiper blade end.
Abstract:
A disengageable arrangement for connecting a windscreen-wiper arm to a drive shaft driven in rotation about its longitudinal axis has a device solidly attached to the arm and providing the connection of the arm, and the drive shaft in the normal operating position of the windscreen wiper. The device is deformable under an effect of a torque applied to the arm greater than that exerted by said drive shaft, and is capable of being placed back in the normal operating position by locked relative positioning of the arm and the drive shaft. There is a single locked relative position of the arm and the drive shaft. The deformable device has at least two stacked elastic blades. The ends of each stacked elastic blade solidly are attached to the arm. Each of the at least two stacked elastic blades has a locking part inserted in a stopping part solidly attached to the drive shaft.
Abstract:
The invention provides a windscreen wiper blade (10) for a motor vehicle, comprising a support frame (12) which comprises a longitudinal tubular body (18); a structural element (14) in the form of a longitudinal horizontal strip, which is accommodated inside the tubular body (18); and an element (16) for linking the blade (10) with a drive arm, which is mounted on the support frame (12), and the linking element (16) being installed on the support frame (12) by means of two lateral vertical longitudinal tabs (34), characterised in that the lateral tabs (34) comprise lugs (40) that cooperate with recesses (42) made in the lateral edges (14a) of the structural element (14), to provide the blocking of the structural element (14) in the tubular body (18).
Abstract:
A rotation control mechanism including a primary shaft driven in an alternating axially rotating manner, a drive carrier fixed to the primary shaft, a secondary shaft mounted in an axially rotatable manner in relation to the drive carrier, a fixed cam provided with a specific profiled element, and a control element which is fixed to the secondary shaft and cooperates in a sliding manner with the cam profiled element during the displacement of the drive carrier in relation to the fixed cam, where the sliding of the control element along the cam profiled element control the axial pivoting of the secondary shaft.
Abstract:
A device for opening and closing a rear window and/or a trunk of a vehicle is positioned on a periphery of or integrated in a window wiper arm assembly provided on a rear side of the vehicle. The device includes an opening and closing system that comprises a push-button connected to an actuating mechanism. The push-button is integrated on a longitudinal portion of a supporting mount of the window wiper arm assembly, and positioned on a handle integrated on said window wiper arm assembly.
Abstract:
A motor vehicle wiper blade includes a support mount extending in a longitudinal main direction, and including a support for a wiping blade and a tubular body having a longitudinal main axis, a structural element in the form of a longitudinal horizontal strip which is accommodated inside the tubular body, and an element for connecting the blade to a drive arm which is mounted on the support mount and which includes a locking mechanism for locking the structural element in a position in the connecting element. The locking mechanism of the connecting element includes, on the one hand, a longitudinal mechanism for locking the structural element in said position, and on the other hand, an angular mechanism for locking the structural element in said position.
