Patent ID: 8719994

Claim:
A connector between a windscreen wiper and a drive arm, the wiper extending in a longitudinal direction, and the connector being capable of being installed in a free end of the drive arm and comprising: an attachment part equipped with a housing open towards a bottom and allowing removable attachment according to a vertical direction of the wiper with the connector; and elastically deformable locking means having a portion that is capable of ensuring locking in the longitudinal direction of the connector in an installed position thereof in the free end of the arm, wherein the attachment part is designed to cooperate with an installation element, other than the elastically deformable locking means, the installation element being permanently fixed to the wiper, wherein the elastically deformable locking means comprise a tab that extends in the longitudinal direction of the wiper, and wherein the connector comprises two lateral flanges, each extending in an overall vertical plane, the flanges being suitable for being installed transversally on either side of the installation element of the wiper, and each flange comprising a transversal housing that is capable of receiving a pivoting transversal axle for articulation of the installation element, wherein, on each flange, the transversal housing has a lower opening, delimited, at least partially, by an elastically deformable attachment portion that allows for an installation and removal of the connector from the wiper as well as the attachment of the transversal axle in an installed position in the housing, wherein the longitudinal locking of the connector with the arm is provided by a connector-side end of the tab, located level with a bottom part of the connector, wherein the tab is located to a rear of the connector, the connector-side end thereof forming at least partially a longitudinal stop towards a rear of at least one associated end section of the arm, and wherein the connector-side end of the tab is mobile between a lower locking position and a raised unlocking position, allowing the connector to slide longitudinally forward in relation to the arm.
