Abstract

A wiper system wiper system for wiping a window is provided. The wiper system has an arm head and an arm retainer connected to the arm head via a pivot. The wiper system includes a latch for controlling pivoting of the arm retainer with respect to the arm head. The latch is configured to restrict pivoting of the arm retainer with respect to the arm head to an operating range close to the window when the latch is in a latched state. The latch is further configured to allow pivoting of the arm retainer with respect to the arm head from the operating range to a servicing position away from the window when the latch is in an unlatched state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a wipe arm pin release for servicing. Background technique [0002] Vehicles typically include rear windows and may include rear wiper systems for removing water, snow, ice, dirt and debris from the rear windows. The rear wiper system may include a wiper assembly having a wiper blade. A wiper blade assembly is attachable to the wiper arm. The rear wiper system may occasionally require service. For example, wipes may need to be replaced periodically. [0003] Pivoting the wiper arm and wiper blade to the access up position allows for easier access to the wiper system. However, the rear wiper system may be subject to external forces that may lift the wiper arm and wiper blade assembly from the rear window when the rear wiper system is not serviced. External forces experienced on the rear wiper system may result, for example, from automatic car washes. The wiper arm and / or wiper blade assembly may also suffer damage...
