Patent ID: 6851157

Claim:
A wiper system, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising at least one wiper ( 12 ) supported in a fashion that allows it to swing between two end positions, that can be driven by an electric motor ( 20 ), wherein the electric motor is designed as an electronically reversible electric motor ( 20 ), wherein the two end positions of the wiper ( 12 ), and, therefore, the swing angle ( 16 ) enclosed by these, is determined by reversing positions ( 38 , 40 ) of the electric motor, and wherein at least one reversing position ( 38 , 40 ) of the electric motor ( 20 ) can be adjusted as a function of vehicle speed, via control means wherein the electric motor ( 20 ) changes a direction of rotation at an upper reversing position ( 40 ) and at a lower reversing position ( 38 ), and wherein the lower reversing position ( 38 ) is shifted upwardly with high vehicle speeds, by said control means so that a lower end position of the wiper ( 12 ) remains constant.
