    摘要: An automatic rain response system includes microphones of a vehicle, windshield wipers, and a controller. The microphones generate acoustic signals in response to rain. The controller is configured to receive a local weather condition, extract acoustic features from the acoustic signals, form feature vectors in response to the acoustic features and the local weather condition, classify the feature vectors to determine a current class among multiple classes, activate the windshield the wipers at a high speed in response to the current class being a heavy rain on a windshield class, activate the windshield wipers at a medium speed in response to the current class being a freezing rain on the windshield class, activate the windshield wipers at a low speed in response to the current class being a light rain on the windshield class, and deactivate the windshield wipers in response to the current class being a no rain class.

    摘要: Wiper apparatuses are provided herein. In one example, a wiper apparatus includes a wiper that has a wiper arm and a wiper blade. The wiper blade is mounted to the wiper arm for contact with a window of a motor vehicle. A wiper drive motor pivots the wiper arm between an out-wipe position and an in-wipe position. A controller controls operation of the wiper drive motor to cause the wiper drive motor to selectively stop the wiper blade in a standard park position when in a standard park mode and in a high park position when in a high park mode. The wiper blade in the high park position is located further up from a bottom edge of the window than in the standard park position. A wiper control switch causes the controller to toggle between the standard park mode and the high park mode when moved according to a predetermined switching sequence.

    摘要: A controller for controlling a wiper unit including a wiper and an intermittent wipe cycle setting device for setting an intermittent wipe cycle of the wiper. The cycle setting device is set at a plurality of positions respectively corresponding to different intermittent wipe cycles. Further, the cycle setting device has a resistance value, which changes in accordance with each of the positions, and generates an output signal, which is in accordance with the change in the resistance value. The controller computes position information of the intermittent wipe cycle setting device from the output signal by using a learned value. The computer adjusts the learned value in accordance with the computation result of the position information to correct the position information. Accordingly, resistance value variances of the intermittent wipe cycle setting device are automatically corrected.

    摘要: A connector part extends outward of a yoke housing from a holder base and is connectable with an external connector to receive an electric signal. A contact base extends from the holder base into an interior of the gear housing through a communication hole, which is formed in a yoke housing side end of the gear housing. The contact base supports terminals, which provide an electrical connection between stationary contacts and brushes. An intermittent drive unit is installed to the connector part to intermittently drive an armature through the brushes based on the electric signal received from the external connector.

    摘要: An arrangement for connection in an electric circuit of a vehicle windshield wiper that can be operated intermittently, and having at least one electric contact in the circuit which can be connected or disconnected to the voltage source at selected intervals. The circuit includes a bi-metallic strip which is provided with a heating winding that heats the strip and bends it in the direction of the electrical contact to thereby actuate the same. When the bi-metallic strip is cooled down, it bends in a direction away from the contact. A constant length of intervals between the connection of the windshield wiper motor and the disconnection of the same is achieved.

    摘要: Control means for a vehicle windscreen wiper including an operating mode, for use in light rainfall for example, in which the wiper operates intermittently under the control of a thermally sensitive switch actuated by an auxiliary heater to interrupt the power supply to the wiper upon actuation of the switch with rising temperature and to restore the power supply upon actuation with falling temperature; energization of the switch actuating heater is continued during each cycle until the wiper parks.
