Abstract:
Provided is a vehicle wiper device including (i) a first motor that includes a first output shaft, that rotates the first output shaft to rotate a wiper arm back and forth about a pivot point of the wiper arm, and that causes a wiper blade coupled to a leading end portion of the wiper arm to perform a back and forth wiping operation between an upper return position and a lower return position on a windshield, (ii) a second motor that changes a wiping range on the windshield by the wiper blade, (iii) a rotation angle detector that detects a rotation angle of the first output shaft, and (iv) a controller that controls the second motor according to a rotation angle of the first output shaft detected by the rotation angle detector in a state in which a broad field of view should be secured on a front passenger seat side.

Claim (Index 4):
The vehicle wiper device of  claim 1 , wherein in cases in which a signal input from a direction indicator switch of the vehicle indicates that the vehicle will turn toward the front passenger seat side, the controller determines a state in which a broad field of view should be secured on the front passenger seat side to exist, and controls the second motor according to a rotation angle of the first output shaft.
