Wiper device for the windows of vehicles, in particular motor vehicles

摘要

The invention relates to a wiper device which has a wiper arm (3) with hooked end (30) the free hook leg (32) of which faces the window (4) to be cleaned. An elastic connecting element (20) which is essentially U-shaped in longitudinal section is inserted into the hook end (30) and engages with its two U-legs (21, 22) around the connecting bolt (14) of a wiper blade (1), which bolt is arranged in an opening (13) in the support bar (10). At the same time, formed onto the U-leg (22) of the connecting element (20) which rests against the free hook leg (32) of the wiper arm is an elastically deflectable tongue (26) which engages with a locking nose (27) in the hook leg (32) and with its free end (28) projects in the longitudinal direction beyond the curved portion (H) of the hook of the hook end (30) of the wiper arm and into the opening (13) in the support bar (10). Therefore, the tongue (26) is accessible from above so that the wiper blade can be changed without folding the wiper arm (3) away from the window (4). <IMAGE>
