Abstract

670,922. Windscreen cleaners. O'SHEI, W. E. June 28, 1950 [March 28, 1949], No. 8424/49. Class 138 (i). A flexible windscreen wiper blade, particularly for a curved windscreen, comprises one or more flexors having teeth spread along the flexor, and a squeegee element comprising a plurality of separate plies of strip rubber, the flexor or flexors being secured to the plies with the teeth penetrating through perforations of the plies. A' stepped multi-ply wiper blade 2 of rubber or other material of similar mechanical characteristics is provided with a plurality of spaced slots 7 passing through all of the plies adjacent the rear edge of the blade. Two flexible metal strips 1, herein called flexors, each provided with rectangular shaped teeth 5 along one edge are engaged on each side of the blade by inserting the teeth 5 in the slots 7. Since the notches 6 between the teeth 5 are wider than the teeth the teeth of a flexor engage in alternate slots in the blade. When assembled the flexors 1 lie substantially in the same plane and are held together by clip-shaped ends 4a of a yoke member or members 4 connected to a wiper arm in known manner. The clips may be separate from and connected to the yoke or yokes. In a modification only a single flexor need be used which lies along the back of the wiper. This flexor may be provided with rectangular teeth along one or both edges the teeth being bent to pass into or through the slots in the blade. The teeth may pass completely through the slots and then extend upwardly towards the opposite edge of the flexor. With these. constructions the flexors or flexor.prevent substantial transverse flexing of the blade whilst permitting flexing thereof normal to the windscreen so that the blade will conform to the windscreen curvature.
