Device for repairing a windscreen

摘要

A windshield repair apparatus is provided which includes a bridge having a base member including an injection holder and a pivot support member pivotally connected to the base member. A suction cup is disposed for connection with the pivot support member for mounting the bridge to the windshield. A yoke extends upward from the suction cup to pivotally connect the suction cup to the pivot support member of the bridge. The yoke includes at least two side members which are adapted to receive the pivot support member of the bridge therebetween such that the bridge is permitted to pivot vertically about a pivot axis toward and away from the windshield and wherein the side members of the yoke prevent the pivot support member from rotating in a horizontal orientation substantially parallel to the windshield. The bridge includes a registration system engageable with the pivotally mounted base of the bridge for retaining the base member of the bridge in the original position and for selectively permitting rotation of the base member of the bridge from the original position to a rotated position upon the manual retraction of the registration system by the user to release the base member from connection with the pivot support member. The registration system includes a locking pin disposed within a base member of the bridge and biased for engagement with a corresponding locking cavity formed in the pivot support member.
