L'objet de la présente invention est de remédier à cet inconvénient en proposant un dispositif d'essuyage comportant des moyens pour faciliter le positionnement exact du ou des balais d'essuie-glaces par rapport au pare-brise, lors du montage du dispositif sur le véhicule automobile. A cet effet, l'invention concerne plus particulièrement un dispositif d'essuie-glace comportant un étui tubulaire présentant au moins une butée de positionnement s'étendant latéralement, la longueur de ladite butée étant déterminée de façon à assurer le positionnement optimal du balai d'essuie-glace lorsque l'extrémité de la butée vient en contact avec une référence de la caisse du véhicule. Avantageusement, les butées présentent une forme coudée. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, l'étui tubulaire présente deux butées parallèles présentant une première partie rectangulaire prolongée par une partie coudée formant un angle d'environ 90 avec la première partie. L'extrémité de chacune des butées vient en The object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback by proposing a wiping device comprising means for facilitating the exact positioning of the wiper blade (s) relative to the windshield, when the device is mounted on the motor vehicle. To this end, the invention relates more particularly to a wiper device comprising a tubular case having at least one positioning stop extending laterally, the length of said stop being determined so as to ensure optimal positioning of the blade. 'wiper when the end of the stopper comes into contact with a reference of the vehicle body. Advantageously, the stops have an angled shape. According to a preferred embodiment, the tubular case has two parallel stops having a first rectangular part extended by a bent part forming an angle of about 90 with the first part. The end of each of the stops comes in
contact avec une pièce de référence du véhicule. contact with a reference part of the vehicle.
Selon une variante, les butées sont fixées sur According to a variant, the stops are fixed on
l'étui tubulaire par collage.the tubular case by gluing.
L'invention concerne également un étui de protection pour balai d'essuie-glace présentant une forme tubulaire et présentant deux ailes longitudinales divergentes munies de griffes propres à coopérer avec les rainures latérales du balai d'essuie-glace, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte au moins une butée s'étendant The invention also relates to a protective case for a wiper blade having a tubular shape and having two divergent longitudinal wings provided with claws suitable for cooperating with the lateral grooves of the wiper blade, characterized in that it has at least one stop extending
latéralement par rapport à l'une desdites ailes. laterally with respect to one of said wings.

La figure 1 représente une vue schématique de la partie avant d'un véhicule automobile, comportant un FIG. 1 represents a schematic view of the front part of a motor vehicle, comprising a
pare-brise 1 et un capot 2.windshield 1 and hood 2.
Le dispositif d'essuyage est constitué par un dispositif pré- assemblé comportant deux bras d'essuie- glace qui portent les balais d'essuie-glace 4, 5 revêtues par un étui de protection. Le dispositif est recouvert par un élément d'habillage 3 épousant le profil du capot 2. De tels dispositifs sont connus dans l'état de la technique, et intègrent habituellement le moteur d'essuie-glace qui entraîne par l'intermédiaire d'un système de tringlerie les arbres d'entraînement des bras d'essuie-glace dans un mouvement alternatif de rotation, le moteur et les arbres d'entraînement étant portés par The wiping device consists of a pre-assembled device comprising two wiper arms which carry the wiper blades 4, 5 coated with a protective case. The device is covered by a covering element 3 conforming to the profile of the cover 2. Such devices are known in the state of the art, and usually incorporate the wiper motor which drives via a linkage system the drive shafts of the wiper arms in an alternating rotational movement, the motor and the drive shafts being carried by

Les balais d'essuie-glace sont protégés avant le déstockage du véhicule par des étuis de protection The wiper blades are protected before the destocking of the vehicle by protective cases
représentés en figure 2.shown in Figure 2.
De tels dispositifs de protection, sont constitués par un étui 6 de forme tubulaire, réalisés en un matériau rigide ou semi- rigide, et présentant une section propre à recouvrir un balai d'essuie- glace ou la lame qu'il porte et présentant des bords latéraux susceptibles de s'encastrer dans les rainures longitudinales de la lame du balai pour assurer le Such protective devices consist of a case 6 of tubular shape, made of a rigid or semi-rigid material, and having a section suitable for covering a wiper blade or the blade which it carries and having side edges likely to be embedded in the longitudinal grooves of the blade of the broom to ensure the
maintien provisoire pendant le stockage du véhicule. temporary maintenance during vehicle storage.
L'étui 6 présente deux ailes latérales 7, 8. The case 6 has two lateral wings 7, 8.
L'une des ailes latérales 8 est prolongée par des butées de positionnement 9, 10 de forme coudée. Les butées 9, 10 présentent une première partie 11, 12 s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à la surface de l'aile latérale 8, et une deuxième partie 13, 14 dirigée vers le bas en formant sensiblement un angle droit avec le première partie. Les butées sont fixées sur l'aile latérale 8 par collage, soudage, vissage, One of the side wings 8 is extended by positioning stops 9, 10 of angled shape. The stops 9, 10 have a first part 11, 12 extending substantially perpendicularly to the surface of the lateral wing 8, and a second part 13, 14 directed downwards, substantially forming a right angle with the first part. The stops are fixed to the lateral wing 8 by gluing, welding, screwing,
clipsage, ou tout autre moyen connu. clipping, or any other known means.
Les dimensions des butées 9, 10 sont déterminées de manière à assurer le positionnement exact du balai d'essuie-glace 4, 5 lorsque l'extrémité 15, 16 de la deuxième partie 13, 14 est en contact avec des repères du véhicule automobile, par exemple une protubérance ou une The dimensions of the stops 9, 10 are determined so as to ensure the exact positioning of the wiper blade 4, 5 when the end 15, 16 of the second part 13, 14 is in contact with marks on the motor vehicle, for example a protuberance or a
arête 17 du capot, comme représenté sur la figure 1. edge 17 of the cover, as shown in FIG. 1.
Le fonctionnement du dispositif selon l'invention est le suivant: Après démontage des bras d'essuie-glace portant les balais d'essuie-glace le dispositif est mis en place sur le véhicule automobile et est solidarisé par boulonnage ou rivetage, de façon connue. Les bras d'essuie-glace sont ensuite remontés en étant libres en rotation par rapport aux axes d'entraînement. On déplace ensuite les balais d'essuie-glace protégés par les étuis de protection jusqu'à ce que les extrémités des butées viennent en contact avec les protubérances prévues. Les balais d'essuie-glaces sont alors positionnés dans la position de repos et peuvent être bloqués en rotation par rapport aux axes d'entraînement. Cette opération de réglage s'effectue sans nécessiter une grande habileté ni The operation of the device according to the invention is as follows: After disassembly of the wiper arms carrying the wiper blades the device is put in place on the motor vehicle and is secured by bolting or riveting, in known manner . The wiper arms are then raised while being free to rotate relative to the drive axes. The wiper blades protected by the protective cases are then moved until the ends of the stops come into contact with the protuberances provided. The wiper blades are then positioned in the rest position and can be locked in rotation relative to the drive axes. This adjustment operation is carried out without requiring great skill or
savoir-faire particulier.particular know-how.
L'invention n'est bien sur pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrit. L'Homme de Métier sera à même d'adapter l'invention aux différents types de véhicules à équiper, et des spécificités des dispositifs d'essuyage The invention is of course not limited to the embodiments described. Those skilled in the art will be able to adapt the invention to the different types of vehicles to be fitted, and to the specifics of the wiping devices.
