Embodiment Construction

[0031] 1 and 2 show a connection device 1 which enables a flat windscreen wiper blade 100 to be mounted to the end of a hook-shaped blade holding arm 200 .

[0032] The connecting device 1 basically consists of two separate elements, but which are permanently joined together to form a functional assembly. Firstly, it comprises a connector 10 which mainly serves as a support for connection to the structure of the flat sheet 100 . Another part of the connection device 1 comprises the adapter 40 , considered as an interface, able to be pivotally mounted on the connector 10 at the same time and interlocked in the so-called connection position inside the hook part 210 of the blade holding arm 200 .

[0033] According to the object of the present invention, it should first be noted that the adapter 40 is equipped with two locking elements 41, 42 which are elastically deformable between an active position and a passive position in which they lock the hook 210 in the connected positi...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device 1 for attaching a windshield wiper blade 100 to an arm 200, comprising a connector 10 intended to be attached to the blade 100, as well as an adapter 40 intended to be coupled on the one hand to the arm 200 and on the other hand to the connector 10, the adapter 40 in a mobile manner comprising at least one locking element 41, 42 capable of elastically deforming between an active position and a passive position. The invention is remarkable in that the connector 10 comprises means for holding each locking element 41, 42 in active position when the adapter 40 is in an operating position, and in that for each locking element 41, 42, the connector 10 comprises an undercut enabling the elastic deformation of said locking element 41, 42 when the adapter 40 is in an assembly position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to attachment means for mounting any windscreen wiper blade to the end of a windscreen wiper arm. [0002] The invention has particular advantages, but is not restricted to the field of application of motor vehicle windscreen wiping systems. Background technique [0003] Flat blades have the advantage of not having a strut structure like the conventional windshield wiper blades currently used on most vehicles. This new class of windscreen wiper blades still has a flexible wiper strip, but the exoskeleton supporting it is replaced by a flexible structure that is directly integrated with the strip. [0004] However, the particular construction of the flat sheet has the disadvantage that it is not compatible with the principles normally used to assemble standard sheets with sheet holding arms, in particular hook arms. Indeed, the extreme simplicity of the flat sheet, as well as the lack of openings through its structure, do...
