Claim:
Wiper blade ( 10 ) with a supporting element ( 12 ) which has two interconnected spring rails ( 30 ), and with a wiper strip ( 14 ) including a top strip ( 20 ) and longitudinal grooves ( 34 ) into which the spring rails ( 30 ) are inserted in a manner allowing the wiper strip to be exchanged, characterized in that the spring rails ( 30 ) extend along a portion of the longitudinal grooves ( 34 ) and terminate prior to an end of the longitudinal grooves ( 34 ) to define an end surface of the spring rails ( 30 ), characterized in that one end of the wiper strip ( 14 ) is connected fixedly to a separable thickened portion ( 74 , 98 , 100 , 108 , 110 , 112 , 114 ) by means of which the wiper strip ( 14 ) can be fixed relative to the supporting element ( 12 ), characterized in that the thickened portion ( 74 , 98 , 100 , 114 ) extends into the longitudinal grooves ( 34 ) and an end surface of the thickened portion in the grooves is disposed opposite the one end of the wiper strip ( 14 ), characterized in that a bridge ( 78 ) connects the spring rails ( 30 ), and characterized in that the bridge ( 78 ) abuts against the end surface of the thickened portion ( 74 , 98 , 100 , 114 ) and the end surface of the spring rails ( 30 ) abuts against the end surface of the thickened portion ( 74 , 98 , 100 , 114 ) in the grooves ( 34 ) to retain the spring rails ( 30 ) on the wiper strip ( 14 ).
