Definitions

  • the invention relates to a windshield wiper for]? _ X__f vehicles.
  • the invention has for its object to further develop a windshield wiper of the type described above in such a way that an easy-to-assemble and durable articulated connection between support bracket and lower bracket is created.
  • the essence of the invention is to provide a joint with at least one support bracket locking arm for locking with the mounting bracket and at least one lower bracket locking arm for locking with the lower bracket, the at least one supporting bracket locking arm being elastically pivotable relative to the at least one lower bracket locking arm ,
  • the advantage of the embodiment according to claim 2 is that an orientation of the joint is not required for automatic assembly.
  • the provision of two opposing locking grooves according to claim 4 has the advantage that this makes it possible to fix the support bracket transversely to its longitudinal direction.
  • Fig. 1 is an exploded view of a bracket with joint and lower bracket.
  • a wiper for a vehicle is hinged to the free end of a wiper arm that is connected to the truck.
  • the windshield wiper has a central support bracket 1, which is connected to the wiper arm and is also referred to as a center bracket.
  • a lower bracket 2 which is also referred to as a claw bracket, is hinged via a joint 3, which is made of POM or another suitable plastic.
  • a wiper belt or a lower bracket is attached.
  • the support bracket 1 which is made of metal, has a U-shaped cross section which is open at the bottom and is formed by a support bracket base 4 and two support bracket legs 5, 6 which extend vertically downward from the edge thereof, the base 4 and the legs 5, 6 are formed in one piece.
  • the leg 5 and in the leg 6 are in the area of the transition to the base 4, each formed as locking grooves 7, essentially cuboid, the legs 5 and 6 not ' penetrating to the outside - this is aesthetically advantageous - recesses are provided, each with a locking groove 7 in the leg 5 and a locking groove 7 in the leg 6 lie opposite one another with respect to the longitudinal direction 8.
  • the locking grooves 7 are arranged on the inside of the bracket 1. Depending on the thickness of the legs 5, 6, the locking grooves 7 can also be designed so that they penetrate the legs 5, 6.
  • the metal lower bracket 2 also has a U-shaped cross section open at the bottom and is formed by a lower bracket base 9 and two lower bracket legs 10, 11 extending vertically downward therefrom, the base 9 and the legs 10. 11 are integrally formed with each other.
  • the support bracket 1 is dimensioned such that it can partially encompass the lower bracket 2 with play.
  • two locking openings 12 with a rectangular cross section penetrating the base 9 are provided, the locking openings 12 being spaced approximately as far apart from one another like the locking grooves 7 one of the legs 5 or 6 from each other.
  • the joint 3 made of plastic and formed in one piece has a base web 14, in the upper region of which two support bracket locking arms 15, 16 formed in one piece are formed, which extend approximately in one plane in opposite directions.
  • the latching arms 15, 16 each have a spring slot 17, which runs from their free end to the base web 14 and is arranged in the center.
  • the free ends of the latching arms 15, 16 there are two each perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the latching arms 15 and 16 verlau- Fende, outwardly projecting, mutually opposite locking lugs 18 are provided.
  • the opposing locking lugs 18 can be compressed due to the spring slot 17 and the choice of material of the joint 3.
  • the opposing locking arms 15 and 19 or 16 and 20 have approximately the same length.
  • the locking arms 15 and 19 or 16 and-20 are also elastically pivotable against each other.
  • latching grooves 21 are provided, each transverse to the longitudinal extension of the latching arms 19 and 20, with latching edges 22 projecting therefrom and provided underneath.
  • the two locking edges 22 are mutually resilient arz.
  • the locking edges 22 are bevelled in the region of their lower front edge in order to facilitate insertion into the locking openings 12.
  • the hinge 3 is mirror-symmetrical with respect to a plane of symmetry running through the base web 14.
  • the support bracket 1 is pushed onto the joint 3 from above, with opposing rasps 18 slightly zesa 'are pressed until they snap into the locking grooves 7.
  • the lower bracket 2 is now articulated elastically on the support bracket 1, the possible pivoting range between the lower bracket 2 and the bracket 1 being selected such that it is adapted to the changes in angle when wiping on a front or rear window of a motor vehicle. Due to the 90 ° offset orientation of the locking lugs 18 on the one hand and the locking edges 22 on the other hand, the joint 3 prevents a displacement of the support bracket 1 relative to the lower bracket 2 transversely to the longitudinal direction 8, so that scraping of the legs 6 and 11 or 5 and 10 against each other prevents becomes.
  • the advantage of the joint 3 is that the mounting of the lower bracket 2 and bracket 1, both of which are made of metal, can be carried out simply, quickly and automatically, since only the parts have to be locked together. It is particularly advantageous that the joint 3 is designed to be mirror-symmetrical. This means that an otherwise complicated orientation of the joint 33 is not required in the automatic assembly, as a result of which the automatic assembly can be greatly examined.
