Abstract:
1. A device connecting an elongated wiper arm to a wiper blade featuring a supporting element holding a wiper strip on which a base element is non-rotatably fastened as the first part of a coupling device, whereby the wiper arm is embodied to be U-shaped and overlaps the base element with its U-shape and whereby holding means are embodied as unitary with the wiper arm within its U-shape, which holding means form a second part of a coupling device and cooperate with the first part of the coupling device, characterized in that the holding means is embodied as articulated means for holding the wiper blade in an articulated manner, which can also transmit a bearing force on the wiper blade to be exerted by the wiper arm on the wiper blade in an operating position and which is at least approximately completely covered by the wiper arm, wherein the holding means is embodied as laterally spaced counter wings extending at a distance from U-legs of the wiper arm, which counter wings overlap with and abut wings of the base element in an assembly position.
