DEVICE FOR DETACHABLY LINKING A WIPER BLADE WITH A DRIVEN WIPER ARM

摘要

The invention relates to a device and to a method for detachably linking a wiper blade (12) with a driven wiper arm (14), whereby said wiper blade (12) comprises a wiper strip (16) facing the pane to be wiped, at least one strip-like oblong support element (18, 20), a bridle element (22) linked with said support element (18, 20), and a joining element (24), oscillatingly mounted on the bridle element (22), for connection to a coupling section (26) of the wiper arm (14). The invention is characterized in that the coupling section (26) comprises a tongue-shaped insertion section (28), in that the joining element (24) comprises a seat for the insertion section (28) and in that the coupling section (26) and the joining element (24) comprise securing sections (42, 56) for durably interlinking them. In order to achieve a preassembly position in which the longitudinal axis of the wiper arm (14) forms an angle beta in the range of approximately 10 DEG to 100 DEG with the longitudinal axis of the joining element (24), the insertion section (28) can be inserted in the seat (30) in a substantially linear direction (64). In order to achieve a post-assembly position, the wiper arm (14) and the linking section (24) can be pivoted relative each other about the contact area of insertion section/seat until the securing sections (40, 42, 56) allow a permanent interlinkage.
