Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of windshield wipers, in particular to an end cover assembly and feeding mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Wiper blades have a promising market prospect due to their more even force distribution, simple structure, and lighter weight. A frameless wiper consists of a rubber strip, two parallel springs, a wiper cover, and a plastic connector. The springs are more elastic than steel blades in conventional framed wipers, reducing vibration and wear on the ends of the wiper strip. The springs clamp the strip from both sides, and the assembled springs and strip are typically fitted with end caps at both ends. These caps tighten the fit between the strip and springs, further enhancing the integrity of the two ends of the frameless wiper.
