The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0025] In order to better understand the above technical solution, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0026] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0027] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 5 , the implementation of the wiper connector proposed in the embodiment of the utility model is described in detail.

[0028] The wiper connector according to the embodiment of the utility model comprises: a fixing seat 1 and a connecting member 2 .

[0029] Specifically, the fixing seat 1 defines a slide groove 11 and a recessed portion 12, the slide groove 11 is provided with an opening, and the recessed portion 12 is provided on the side wall of the slide groove 11; the connecting member 2 has a first portion 21 and a second portion 22 which are integrally provided, the first portion 21 is suitable for connecting with the wiper rod, and the second portion 22 has a connecting portion 221 and a sliding portion 222, the connecting portion 221 is connected to the first portion 21, the connecting portion 221 extends downwardly to a retaining edge 223, and the sliding portion 222 extends toward the retaining edge 223. The pressing piece 224 and the protrusion 225 are open so that the pressing piece 224 and the protrusion 225 are elastic. When the sliding part 222 is inserted into the slide groove 11 from the opening, the protrusion 225 is limited to the recessed part 12 so that the connecting member 2 is connected to the fixing seat 1, and the pressing piece 224 is located between the retaining edge 223 and the end surface of the slide groove 11. When the pressing piece 224 is pressed, the pressing piece 224 simultaneously drives the protrusion 225 to disengage from the recessed part 12, so that the connecting member 2 is disengaged from the fixing seat 1.

[0030] That is to say, the connecting member 2 has a first portion 21 and a second portion 22 that are integrally arranged, so that the first portion 21 and the second portion 22 are more firmly connected, and the sliding portion 222 of the second portion 22 and the sliding portion 222 extend the pressing piece 224 and the protruding portion 225 suspended in the air, so that the pressing piece 224 and the protruding portion 225 are elastic, so that the sliding portion 222 is inserted from the opening of the slide groove 11 to make the protruding portion 225 elastically deformed and positioned in the recessed portion 12 in the slide groove 11, thereby realizing the assembly of the connecting member 2 and the fixing seat 1. Since the pressing piece 224 and the protruding portion 225 of the connecting member 2 are elastic, they are relatively fragile. When the connecting member 2 is connected When on the fixed seat 1, the pressing piece 224 of the connecting member 2 is located between the retaining edge 223 of the second part 22 and the end face of the slide groove 11 of the fixing seat 1, thereby protecting the pressing piece 224 and preventing the pressing piece 224 from being squeezed or collided and damaged. When disassembling, pressure is applied to the pressing piece 224 to cause it to elastically deform, thereby driving the protrusion 225 to disengage from the recessed portion 12, and then the connecting member 2 is pulled out of the slide groove 11 of the fixing seat 1 for disassembly. The operation is convenient. In the disassembled state, the retaining edge 223 can still shield and protect the pressing piece 224 and the protrusion 225, thereby preventing the pressing piece 224 and the protrusion 225 from being squeezed or collided and damaged.

[0031] Thus, when installing, the sliding part 222 of the connecting member 2 is installed by slidingly cooperating with the slide groove 11 of the fixing seat 1, and the protruding part 225 of the connecting member 2 cooperates with the recessed part 12 in the slide groove 11, so that the connecting member 2 is connected to the fixing seat 1, and the pressing member 224 is located between the retaining edge 223 of the connecting member 2 and the end face of the slide groove 11, so that the pressing member 224 is in a position that is not easily squeezed or collided, thereby protecting the pressing member 224, and when disassembling, the pressing member 224 is pressed to synchronously drive the protruding part 225 to elastically deform and detach from the recessed part 12, thereby facilitating the separation of the connecting member 2 from the fixing seat 1, and when the connecting member 2 is separated, the retaining edge 223 can shield and protect the pressing member 224 and the protruding part 225, so as to prevent the pressing member 224 from being squeezed or collided and damaged. The wiper connector has a simple structure, can ensure the connection strength, and can effectively protect the pressing member 224.

[0032] For the connection between the connecting portion 221, the rib 223 and the sliding portion 222, the second portion 22 is provided with a rib 226, which is suitable for connecting the connecting portion 221, the rib 223 and the sliding portion 222. It can be understood that the rib 226 can be provided to strengthen the support strength between the connecting portion 221, the sliding portion 222 and the rib 223, thereby increasing the service life of the connecting member 2. The rib 226 can be in an L-shape, which is convenient for supporting the sliding portion 222 and the rib 223 in the horizontal and vertical directions, and the connecting portion 221, the rib 223, the sliding portion 222 and the rib 226 can be integrally formed.

[0033] For the extreme position of the sliding part 222 inserted into the slide slot 11, the slide slot 11 is provided with a first limiting surface 14, and the sliding part 222 is provided with a second limiting surface 227. When the second limiting surface 227 abuts against the first limiting surface 14, the protrusion 225 is limited to the recessed part 12. It can be understood that the first limiting surface 14 of the slide slot 11 and the second limiting surface 227 of the sliding part 222 are abutted and matched, so that the protrusion 225 just falls into the recessed part 12, so that the protrusion 225 is limited to the recessed part 12, which is convenient for the rapid assembly of the connector 2 and the fixing seat 1. Among them, the first limiting surface 14 can be set at the end opposite to the opening of the slide slot 11, and the second limiting surface 227 can be set at the end of the insertion end of the sliding part 222.

[0034] For the protrusion 225 and the recess 12, the protrusion 225 has a third limiting surface 2251, and the recess 12 has a fourth limiting surface 15. When the protrusion 225 is limited in the recess 12, the third limiting surface 2251 and the fourth abutting surface can abut against each other to limit the protrusion 225 from detaching from the recess 12. It can be understood that, through the abutment cooperation between the third limiting surface 2251 and the fourth limiting surface 15, the protrusion 225 can be restricted in the recessed portion 12 without applying pressure to the pressing member 224. That is to say, through the cooperation between the first limiting surface 14 and the second limiting surface 227, the protrusion 225 is restricted in the recessed portion 12 and can no longer move along the insertion direction of the slide groove 11. Through the cooperation between the third limiting surface 2251 and the fourth limiting surface 15, the protrusion 225 is restricted in the recessed portion 12 and can no longer move in the opposite direction of the insertion of the slide groove 11, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the connecting member 2 and the fixing seat 1, and further ensuring the stability of the wiper operation.

[0035] For the cooperation between the protrusion 225 and the slide groove 11, the protrusion 225 further includes a guide surface 2252. When the sliding part 222 is inserted into the slide groove 11, the guide surface 2252 can abut the entrance of the slide groove 11, so that the protrusion 225 elastically deforms inwards and enters the slide groove 11. It can be understood that in order to limit the protrusion 225 in the recessed part 12, the spacing between the two protrusions 225 is greater than the spacing between the two slide grooves 11. Therefore, when the protrusion 225 enters the slide groove 11, the guide surface 2252 abuts the entrance of the slide groove 11, so that the two protrusions 225 elastically deform inwards, thereby facilitating entry into the slide groove 11. When the first limiting surface 14 and the second limiting surface 227 abut each other, the protrusion 225 rebounds and falls into the recessed part 12, thereby completing the assembly between the connector 2 and the fixing seat 1. Among them, the protrusion 225 can be a square body with a guide surface 2252, the guide surface 2252 is a plane, the recessed portion 12 can be a square through hole, the protrusion 225 can also be a cylinder with a circular arc guide surface 2252, and the recessed portion 12 can be a circular hole.

[0036] For the installation of the wiper, the fixing base 1 further includes a mounting groove 13, which is arranged opposite to the slide groove 11, and is suitable for installing the wiper strip. It can be understood that the installation of the wiper strip can be facilitated by the installation of the mounting groove 13. Among them, the mounting groove 13 can adopt an existing structure.

[0037] For the anti-slip setting of the pressing piece, the pressing surface of the pressing piece 224 is provided with anti-slip lines 2241. It can be understood that the anti-slip lines 2241 can increase the friction between the hand and the pressing surface of the pressing piece 224, so that it is convenient for the hand to pinch the pressing piece 224 and pull the connecting piece 2 out of the sliding groove 11. Among them, the anti-slip lines 2241 can be arranged in the shape of vertical stripes.
