Problems solved by technology

[0006] The disadvantage of this second situation, in which only the wiper blade is replaced, is that the means for supplying the liquid are open and thus lead to leaks
[0007] Another disadvantage of this type of situation is the difficulty of replacing this type of wiper blade
In fact, it is necessary to obtain as ergonomic a solution as possible for changing the blade, and it will be appreciated that the presence of liquid at the level of the treatment area complicates the replacement of the blade and its more satisfactory refitting
In addition, residual stress in the device used to supply the liquid can lead to liquid being projected onto the user, which is desirable to avoid

Embodiment Construction

[0032] It should be noted that the accompanying drawings show the invention in a detailed manner for carrying it out, it being realized that said drawings can be used to better define the invention, if possible.

[0033] figure 1 A wiper is shown in detail, which is equipped with a wiper system which is fitted to a motor vehicle. The wiper is mounted on the front windshield, but it can also be fitted on the rear window of the vehicle.

[0034] The wiper extends along a length according to the longitudinal axis. The wiper comprises a blade 1 constituted by a friction zone 2 on the glass and by an attachment zone 3 ensuring a mechanical connection with a support 4 comprised by the wiper.

[0035] This support is known as a spine and it ensures the mechanical retention of the different parts making up the wiper. As an example, it consists of a single metal rod extending according to a longitudinal axis and having a convex curvature relative to the windscreen when at rest. The...

Abstract

The invention relates to a securing device (11) provided between a blade (1) and a mounting (4) constituting a wiper, wherein said device includes a first portion (12) that can be attached onto the mounting (4) and a second portion (13) that can be attached onto the blade (1), the first portion (12) and the second portion (13) being connected together by a removable attachment means, characterized in that the first portion (12) includes at least one blocking means capable of plugging at least one liquid-feeding device (6) which is a component of the wiper. The invention can be used for motor vehicles.

Description

technical field [0001] The field of the invention is that of devices for vehicles, more particularly of devices for wiping the windscreen of a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Motor vehicles are often equipped with windshield wiper systems for ensuring the washing of the windshield and preventing the driver's view of the environment being disturbed. These windshield wipers are usually driven by arms that perform an angled back and forth motion, the wipers comprising elongated wipers which themselves support wiping blades made of resilient material. These blades rub against the windshield and dislodge the water by bringing it out of the driver's field of view. Wipers are made in traditional versions, in the form of hinged stirrups, which hold the scraping blades in multiple discrete positions, or in newer versions, known as "flat blades", with semi-rigid components form, which holds the scraper blade along its entire length. In both solutions, the wiper is atta...
