WIPING DEVICE FOR THE GLASS SURFACES OF MOTOR VEHICLES, COMPRISING A WIPING ARM THAT CAN BE MOVED BETWEEN REVERSIBLE POSITIONS AND THAT IS LOADED TOWARDS THE GLASS SURFACE

摘要

The invention relates to a wiper device for the glass surfaces of motor vehicles. The inventive device comprises a wiper arm (12) that can be moved between reversible positions, is loaded towards the glass surface (20) and forms a first component of the device. A wiperblade (16) forming a second component of the device is linked to the free end of the wiper arm. Said wiperblade can be pivoted around an axle (40) that is essentially oriented in the wiping direction (double arrow 38). The wiperblade and the wiper arm can be moved crosswise in relation to the wiping direction from a working position into a mounting position. The wiperblade is provided with two journals (44) and means for limiting the pivoting movement. The journals pertain to the pivoting joint (40), protrude from the longitudinal sides of the wiperblade, are aligned with each other, are noncircular in the cross-section and are guided in receptacles (46) of the wiperarm (12), whereby said receptacles have open edges.
