Abstract:
1. A windshield wiper system for cleaning a windshield of a vehicle, the windshield wiper system comprising: a first reservoir comprising a first closable opening, the first reservoir configured to store a wiper fluid; a second reservoir coupled to the first reservoir, the second reservoir comprising a second closable opening, wherein the second reservoir is configured to store a de-icing fluid; a motor system coupled to the first reservoir and the second reservoir, the motor system configured to drive at least one of the wiper fluid from the first reservoir and the de-icing fluid from the second reservoir; a first rear tube extending from the first reservoir to the motor system, where the first rear tube provides flow of the wiper fluid; a second rear tube extending from the second reservoir to the motor system where the second tube provides flow of the de-icing fluid; a first front tube extending from the motor system providing flow of the wiper fluid; a second front tube extending from the motor system providing flow of the de-icing fluid; a first connector, where the first connector receives the first front tube and the second front tube extending from the motor system, where the first connector receives the flow of either the wiper fluid, de-icing fluid or a combination of wiper fluid and de-icing fluid; a connecting tube extending from the first connector to a second connector; at least one wiper tube extending from the second connector, where each said wiper tube includes a spray head and each wiper tube receives the flow of either wiper fluid, de-icing fluid or a combination of wiping in fluid and de-icing fluid that flows from the first connector through the connecting tube to the second connector; a control module, where the control module is coupled to the motor system via a first connection means and said control module controls the operations for the first reservoir and the second reservoir; and a power source, said power source coupled to the control module via a second connection means and said power source provides power to the motor system.
