Definitions
- This invention relates to the field of windshield wiper blades.
- Typical wiper blades used on vehicles are plagued with numerous persistent drawbacks.
- the beam blade or flat blade was developed, keeping a lower profile and generally providing a more uniform force distribution than most bracketed wiper blades.
- beam blades do not have the lateral stability of bracketed blades, and can have problems with wrapping (i.e. keeping contact between the outer edges of the wiper blade and the windshield) when their curvature is not sufficiently sharp for the windshield, and banding (i.e. losing contact with the windshield in the middle of the wiper blade, thereby leaving an unwiped band) when their curvature is too sharp for the windshield.
- beam blades may serve well for original equipment (i.e.
- the wiper blades installed by manufacturers on cars that are designed specifically for that car, but can experience problems on certain vehicles if designed as aftermarket wiper blades (i.e. replacement blades designed to be used on a variety of different windshields where the manufacturer does not know what vehicle the blade will be used on).
- the first generation of hybrid wiper blades developed improved on beam blade performance in these circumstances. These blades combine the use of brackets with a beam to improve on the blades' wrapping characteristics without creating problems with banding.
- the disclosed concept provides an improvement on the first generation hybrid wiper blades, using a combination of traditional brackets and either beams or flat brackets.
- a wiper blade has a wiper strip, a primary frame, and a pair of secondary frames.
- the primary frame having a connection device capable of connecting the wiper blade to a wiper arm disposed on a top side of the primary frame, and a connection structure disposed, on opposite ends of the primary frame.
- the pair of secondary frame each have a central pivot connection portion and two leg portions extending from the central pivot connection portion, a pivot structure disposed on the central pivot connection portion of the secondary frames wherein the pivot structure of the secondary frames are connected to the connection structures on the ends of the primary frame.
- a wiper blade has a wiper strip, a force distribution structure having opposing ends, and a cover.
- the cover comprises a cover center section having two end portions and two cover side sections that are made from a soft, elastic material, wherein the cover side sections cover the end portions of the cover center section and extend to and cover the opposing ends of the wiper blade.
- a wiper blade has a wiper strip, a primary frame and a pair of beams.
- the primary frame has a top side and opposite ends, a connection device capable of connecting the wiper blade to a wiper arm disposed on the top side of the primary frame, and a connection structure disposed, on each of the opposite ends of the primary frame.
- the pair of beams each beam have a center portion and two leg portions extending in opposite directions from the center portion; wherein a pivot structure is connected to the center portion of the beams, and connects to the connection structure on the ends of the primary frame.

- the primary frame 20 may be straight or predominantly straight in shape when viewed from the front (as shown in FIG. 2-4 ), or may bear a more pronounced curvature.
- a connection to a pivot structure may be located at each end of the primary frame 20 , and allows the primary frame 20 to connect to a secondary frame 30 , in such a manner as to allow the secondary frame 30 to pivot about a pivot axis.
- a novel pivot structure which is the subject of U.S. Provisional Application 61/603,223 and the nonprovisional application filed concurrently herewith is described below, but any pivot structure known in the art may be used in connection with the described wiper blade.
- the profile of the primary frame 20 below the connection device 10 when viewed along the longitudinal axis of the wiper blade, is preferably U shaped to add strength and rigidity to the primary frame.
- the primary frame may have a horizontal wall 21 from which two side walls 22 may descend vertically. The distance between the side walls 22 may be constant along the length of the primary frame 20 , or it may taper or expand as it approaches either end of the primary frame 20 .
- a connection to a pivot structure is shown in FIGS. 2-5 , as pivot extension walls 23 . These pivot extension walls 23 extend from the side walls 22 of the primary frame 20 and facilitate the connection of the primary frame 20 to the pivot structure.

- the horizontal wall 21 may end before, or part way along, the pivot extension walls 23 in order to give the pivot structure a wider range of motion, or may optionally extend all the way to the end of, or past, the pivot extension walls 23 .
- FIGS. 52 and 53 show another embodiment of the primary frame 20 wherein the horizontal wall 21 running along the top of the primary frame 20 is angled such that from an area near the connection device 10 the surface of the horizontal wall 21 decreases in height it approaches the pivot extension walls 23 .
- the walls joining the horizontal wall 21 to the side walls 22 in this embodiment is also sloped (and in some embodiments, may be fluted), and the width of the horizontal wall 21 is narrower nearer to the connection device 10 than on the ends of the primary frame 20 . This allows a cover 60 , 70 to have a greater degree of fluting and a narrower top, which can give it an aerodynamic effect similar to spoiler, which can improve the wiper blade's wind-lift performance.
- the primary frame 20 and/or the connection device 10 may also have cover-connection structures, such as projections, recesses, extension walls with holes, recesses, projections or rivets, etc., to facilitate the connection of the cover 60 , 70 , or portions thereof, to the primary frame 20 .
- cover-connection structures such as projections, recesses, extension walls with holes, recesses, projections or rivets, etc.
- the secondary frame 30 is preferably made out of metal, such as steel, and can optionally be spring-elastic.
- the secondary frame 30 can also be made from plastic, or any other suitable material known in the art.
- the secondary frame 30 can be a curved, spring-elastic beam, making the such embodiments “hybrid” wiper blades, as they are a hybrid combining elements of a bracketed (or framed) wiper blade and a beam (or frameless) wiper blade.

- connecting structures such as recesses 32 ; projections; or pivot joint wings having either (1) a rivet or projections to attach to corresponding recesses, holes or clips in the primary frame's 20 pivot extension walls 23 or other connection to a pivot structure; or (2) recesses to receive corresponding projections, rivets, etc. in the primary frame's 20 pivot extension walls 23 or other connection to a pivot structure.
- pivot structures such as recesses 32 ; projections; or pivot joint wings having either (1) a rivet or projections to attach to corresponding recesses, holes or clips in the primary frame's 20 pivot extension walls 23 or other
- the secondary frame 30 has legs 33 , 34 .
- the legs 33 , 34 of the secondary frame 30 may be symmetric or asymmetric (as shown).
- the legs 33 , 34 of the secondary frame 30 may be of the same, or different in lengths.
- each leg 33 , 34 may be independently straight, curved, or have a more elaborate structure depending on the vehicle(s) for which they are designed.
- the curvature of the inner leg 34 i.e. the leg closer to the center of the wiper blade
- the secondary frame 30 may be a generally thin bracket, and may optionally be provided with a strengthening and stiffening bead 35 , giving it a more robust form, and increasing its lateral rigidity.
- the strengthening bead 35 may be provided along either, or both legs 33 , 34 , and may also extend onto portions of the central pivot connection portion 31 .
- pivoting structure joining the primary frame 20 and the secondary frame 30 may be made in many different ways known in the art, either by directly connecting the two frames directly, or by using intermediary structures to do so.
- One such method for connecting the primary frame 20 to the secondary frame 30 described in greater detail in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/603,223, and in the concurrently filed non-provisional application entitled Hinged Wiper Blade filed concurrently herewith uses a turn-buckle holder 51 made up of two holder halves 52 held together by a rivet 50 .
- one holder half 52 is attached to the secondary frame 30 opposite the other holder half 52 at the central pivot connection portion 31 wherein the central pivot connection portion 31 is inserted into the channel 54 formed between the upper channel wall 56 and lower channel wall 57 of each holder half 52 .
- the holder halves 52 are then pushed together such that the holder half's 52 projections 55 engage the recesses 32 on the central pivot connection portion 31 of the secondary frame 30 .
- the holder halves 52 can be implemented so as to have recesses to receive such projections.
- the turn-buckle holder 51 can be placed between the pivot extension walls 23 of the primary frame 20 , and a rivet 50 (shown in FIG. 8 ) can be passed through the holes 24 in the pivot extension walls 23 and through the rivet passage 53 in the turn-buckle holder 51 and secured on the opposite side.
- a rivet 50 shown in FIG. 8
- FIGS. 1-10 provide protrusions on the pivot extension walls 23 which can engage the rivet passage 53 in the holder, or providing the holder 51 with protrusions that can engage the holes 24 in the pivot extension walls 23 .
- FIG. 12 shows a cross-section of the turn-buckle holder 51 taken through the channel 54 along its plane.
- the projections inside the holder halves 52 can be made of varying sizes, and need not be symmetric with the projections 55 in the opposite holder half 52 .
- two different sizes of projections 55 may be used in the holder halves 52 in order to facilitate proper alignment of the secondary frame 30 with the turn-buckle holder 51 during assembly.
- the turn-buckle holder 51 is a unitary structure. Such a structure can be made through insert molding, where the unitary turn-buckle holder is molded around the secondary frame. This provides a tighter grip by the turn-buckle holder on the secondary frame.
- FIGS. 13-16 show various views of a holder half 52 .
- the lower channel wall 57 may be angled, or curved in order to allow pivoting of the secondary frame 30 within the turn-buckle holder 51 , or to facilitate the attachment of the turn-buckle holder to the secondary frame 30 by providing a wider entry point on the edges of the channel 54 in the holder half 52 while still providing a snug-fitting attachment in the middle portion of the holder half 52 .
- both the top channel wall 56 and the lower channel wall 57 may be shaped to follow the contour of the central pivot connection portion 31 of the secondary frame 30 or to facilitate insertion of the secondary frame 30 into the holder halves 52 .
- This novel pivot-hinge connection between the primary and secondary frames can be accomplished within the limited height of the pivot extension walls 23 of the primary frame 20 , and thus allows the disclosed wiper blade to maintain a relatively low profile, thereby reducing the effect of wind-lift on the wiper blade at high speeds and reducing or obviating the need for a spoiler on the wiper blade.
- the ends of the secondary frame 30 may either be provided with a wiper strip holder, such as the claws 43 on the tertiary frames 40 , 41 , or may with a connection extension 36 having a structure to connect to a tertiary frame 40 , 41 .
- a wiper strip holder such as the claws 43 on the tertiary frames 40 , 41
- a connection extension 36 having a structure to connect to a tertiary frame 40 , 41 .
- the connection between the secondary frame 30 and the tertiary frame(s) 41 , 42 is formed by passing a pivoting stud 44 through a hole 42 in the central joint connection portion of the tertiary frame and a hole 37 in the connection extensions 36 on the secondary frame 30 .
- the pivoting stud 44 has a tertiary base portion 45 sized to fit in the hole 42 of the tertiary frame 40 , 41 , and a bottom portion 47 that is wider than the hole 42 in the tertiary frame 40 , 41 .
- tertiary frame 40 , 41 is supported on the bottom portion 47 of the pivoting stud 44 when the wiper blade is assembled.
- the base portion 47 may be curved (as shown in FIG. 21 ) or angled in order to facilitate the pivoting of the tertiary frame 40 , 41 .
- the pivoting stud 44 is also provided with a top portion 48 and a neck 46 wherein the diameter of the neck is approximately the same as the width of top portion 48 and smaller than the length of the top portion. Both are the top portion and the neck are sized to fit into the hole 37 of the secondary frame, and the height of the neck is approximately the same as the thickness of the connection extension 36 of the secondary frame 30 .
- the pivoting stud's 44 top portion 48 and neck 46 are inserted into hole 37 in the connection extension 36 of the secondary frame 30 , and then turned such that the top portion 48 is perpendicular to the long side of the hole 37 in the connection extension 36 .
- a high friction material such as natural or synthetic rubber is preferred for the pivoting stud 44 , but plastic and/or other suitable materials may also be used.
- plastic and/or other suitable materials may also be used.
- Persons of skill in the art will recognize that alternative forms of connecting the tertiary frames to the secondary frames may be used within the scope of the disclosed concepts, and that any of the forms for creating a pivoting structure/joint between the primary and secondary frames discussed above could be implemented between the secondary and tertiary frames, and vice versa.

- the novel “soft” cover 60 introduced in this provisional patent application can be used with any known type of wiper blade, including the above-described wiper blade, beam blades,
- the wiper blade covers on commercial wiper blades generally have a hard plastic cap (see U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,293,321 and 7,523,520) hovering over the connection device (See U.S. Pat. No. 6,944,905).
- the hard plastic cap above the cover must leave a gap between the top surface of the cover and the bottom surface of the cap. Failure to leave such a gap results in the cap pushing down on the cover during the operation of the wiper blade, which compresses the material of the cover, and exerts a force onto the beam or other support structure, which can have adverse effects on the wipe quality of the wiper blade.
- connection device to form a contact seal with a cover can really only be done by custom-tailoring the wiper blade to a particular curvature of a particular windshield.
- the required specific calculations cannot be made across multiple windshields, and thus the same problem of cover-material compression and adverse forces on the beam/support structure may be present on some windshields but not others.
- most wiper blade manufacturers provide wiper blades with a gap between the cover and the cap or other structure that covers it.
- the novel “soft” cover 60 presented in this application solves these problems by reversing the order of the pieces.
- cover center section 61 helps secure the connection with the cover side sections 64 .

Suitable materials for both the cover center section 61 and the cover side sections 64 include natural and synthetic rubber, plastic, and other materials known in the art.
- a plastic material with a Shore hardness A values above 90 in the cover center section 61 and plastic, natural rubber, or synthetic rubber material with Shore hardness A values between 60 and 90 in the cover side sections 64 .
- Improved results have been found using a material of Shore hardness A between 80 and 88 in the cover side sections 64 , as it is still flexible enough not to affect the beam/support structure, but hard enough to maintain good grips on the cover center section 61 as well as on the wiper blade's primary frame 20 , secondary frame 30 , tertiary frame 40 , 41 and/or a beam (in the case of beam blades and/or hybrid blades).
- a cover center (“hard”) section 61 is provided with side connecting structures 62 , and top recesses/holes 63 which receive corresponding side receiving structures 65 and top projections 66 from the cover side sections 64 .

Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 16/744,575, filed Jan. 16, 2020, which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 14/715,144, filed May 18, 2015, which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 13/776,376 filed on Feb. 25, 2013, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/603,222 filed Feb. 24, 2012, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
- This invention relates to the field of windshield wiper blades.
- Typical wiper blades used on vehicles are plagued with numerous persistent drawbacks. In an effort to improve upon the traditional, bracketed wiper blade, the beam blade (or flat blade) was developed, keeping a lower profile and generally providing a more uniform force distribution than most bracketed wiper blades. However beam blades do not have the lateral stability of bracketed blades, and can have problems with wrapping (i.e. keeping contact between the outer edges of the wiper blade and the windshield) when their curvature is not sufficiently sharp for the windshield, and banding (i.e. losing contact with the windshield in the middle of the wiper blade, thereby leaving an unwiped band) when their curvature is too sharp for the windshield. Accordingly, beam blades may serve well for original equipment (i.e. the wiper blades installed by manufacturers on cars that are designed specifically for that car, but can experience problems on certain vehicles if designed as aftermarket wiper blades (i.e. replacement blades designed to be used on a variety of different windshields where the manufacturer does not know what vehicle the blade will be used on).
- The first generation of hybrid wiper blades developed improved on beam blade performance in these circumstances. These blades combine the use of brackets with a beam to improve on the blades' wrapping characteristics without creating problems with banding. The disclosed concept provides an improvement on the first generation hybrid wiper blades, using a combination of traditional brackets and either beams or flat brackets.
- The following patent applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety, including their disclosures with respect to the background and field of art of wiper blades: U.S. patent application Ser. Nos. 13/453,601; 13/679,646; 13/572,100 and 13/587,389.

As such, the detailed description and illustration of these embodiments are purely exemplary in nature and are in no way intended to limit the scope of the invention, or its protection, in any manner. It should also be understood that the drawings are not to scale and in certain instances details have been omitted, which are not necessary for an understanding of the present invention, such as conventional details of fabrication and assembly.
- A novel bracketed and/or hybrid (i.e. having both a spring elastic “beam” and one or more brackets/frames) wiper blade having a cover is presented. Several novel concepts are introduced which can be used both with the disclosed novel wiper blade, or separately with various kinds of traditional, hybrid or beam wiper blades. These novel concepts include, but are not limited to, a novel “soft” cover for any type of wiper blade that is more effective at keeping debris out of the internal structure of the wiper blade than traditional covers; a novel segmented hard cover for any type of wiper blade whose segments connect to each other, and do not require connection to the frame, allowing for a tighter fit line between segments and thus reducing the chance of debris from getting into the mechanism.

- As can be seen in
FIGS. 2-4 the main support structure of the wiper blade preferably includes aprimary frame 20 having aconnection device 10 on its top side to which a connector and/or or adapter (not shown) can be used to connect the wiper blade to a wiper arm. Suitable connectors which allow the wiper blade to be connected to various different types of wiper arms are known in the art, and include U.S. Pat. No. 6,640,380 and U.S. patent application Ser. Nos. 13/558,624, and 13/560,585, each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. Alternatively, theconnection device 10 can be implemented to connect directly to a particular kind of wiper arm with or without the use of a connector and/or adapter. Theconnection device 10 may attach to theprimary frame 20 through the use of welding, screws, rivets, claws, crimping or any other method known in the art. Alternatively, theconnection device 10 may be an integrated part of the structure of theprimary frame 20. Theconnection device 10 may be made out of metal, plastic or any other suitable material known in the art or any combination of suitable materials known in the art. - The
primary frame 20 may be made out of metal, plastic or any other suitable material known in the art, or any combination of suitable materials known in the art. Theprimary frame 20 may be straight or predominantly straight in shape when viewed from the front (as shown inFIG. 2-4 ), or may bear a more pronounced curvature. A connection to a pivot structure may be located at each end of theprimary frame 20, and allows theprimary frame 20 to connect to asecondary frame 30, in such a manner as to allow thesecondary frame 30 to pivot about a pivot axis. A novel pivot structure which is the subject ofU.S. Provisional Application 61/603,223 and the nonprovisional application filed concurrently herewith is described below, but any pivot structure known in the art may be used in connection with the described wiper blade. - As shown in
FIG. 5 , the profile of theprimary frame 20 below theconnection device 10, when viewed along the longitudinal axis of the wiper blade, is preferably U shaped to add strength and rigidity to the primary frame. The primary frame may have ahorizontal wall 21 from which twoside walls 22 may descend vertically. The distance between theside walls 22 may be constant along the length of theprimary frame 20, or it may taper or expand as it approaches either end of theprimary frame 20. As described above, at either end of the primary frame is a connection to a pivot structure. One such connection is shown inFIGS. 2-5 , aspivot extension walls 23. Thesepivot extension walls 23 extend from theside walls 22 of theprimary frame 20 and facilitate the connection of theprimary frame 20 to the pivot structure. The pivot extension walls may be provided withholes 24 which will form part of the pivot structure, wherein a rivet, or protrusions may be placed to facilitate the pivoting of thesecondary frame 30. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that various alternative pivot structures, and connections to pivot structures might be used and remain within the scope of the disclosed concepts, including without limitation providing the pivot extension walls with protrusions instead of holes, or a rivet onto which other parts of the pivot structure can attach by in any known manner. Thehorizontal wall 21 may end before, or part way along, thepivot extension walls 23 in order to give the pivot structure a wider range of motion, or may optionally extend all the way to the end of, or past, thepivot extension walls 23. -
FIGS. 52 and 53 show another embodiment of theprimary frame 20 wherein thehorizontal wall 21 running along the top of theprimary frame 20 is angled such that from an area near theconnection device 10 the surface of thehorizontal wall 21 decreases in height it approaches thepivot extension walls 23. The walls joining thehorizontal wall 21 to theside walls 22 in this embodiment is also sloped (and in some embodiments, may be fluted), and the width of thehorizontal wall 21 is narrower nearer to theconnection device 10 than on the ends of theprimary frame 20. This allows acover - As discussed in greater detail below, the
primary frame 20 and/or theconnection device 10 may also have cover-connection structures, such as projections, recesses, extension walls with holes, recesses, projections or rivets, etc., to facilitate the connection of thecover primary frame 20. - The
secondary frame 30 is preferably made out of metal, such as steel, and can optionally be spring-elastic. Thesecondary frame 30 can also be made from plastic, or any other suitable material known in the art. In certain embodiments (not shown in the figures), thesecondary frame 30 can be a curved, spring-elastic beam, making the such embodiments “hybrid” wiper blades, as they are a hybrid combining elements of a bracketed (or framed) wiper blade and a beam (or frameless) wiper blade. Thesecondary frame 30 preferably has a central pivot connection portion 31, which connects thesecondary frame 30 to theprimary frame 20 via a pivot structure. The central pivot connection portion 31 is preferably flattened (as shown inFIGS. 6 and 7 ), but may be curved. The central pivot connection portion 31 may have connecting structures, such asrecesses 32; projections; or pivot joint wings having either (1) a rivet or projections to attach to corresponding recesses, holes or clips in the primary frame's 20pivot extension walls 23 or other connection to a pivot structure; or (2) recesses to receive corresponding projections, rivets, etc. in the primary frame's 20pivot extension walls 23 or other connection to a pivot structure. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that numerous types of pivot structures can be used, whether directly connecting thesecondary frame 30 to theprimary frame 20, or as described below in the novel pivot joint presented, using an intermediary piece (or pieces) to join the two. - On either side of the central pivot connection portion 31, the
secondary frame 30 haslegs legs secondary frame 30 may be symmetric or asymmetric (as shown). Thelegs secondary frame 30 may be of the same, or different in lengths. In some embodiments, it may be advantageous to have the outer leg 33 (the leg further from the middle of the wiper blade) with a longer length than theinner leg 34 to allow a more compactprimary frame 20, while still allowing the wiper blade to wrap around the curvature of the windshield along its extremities, and improve wipe quality. Similarly, eachleg curved legs outer leg 33. In some embodiments, it can be particularly advantageous to provide theinner leg 34 with a sharper curvature than the curvature of theouter leg 33 in order to provide better wrapping of the wiper blade around the curvature of a windshield, and thus improving wipe quality. Similarly, in embodiments withstraight legs outer leg 33 with a smaller angle of descent from the central pivot connection portion θ than the angle of descent φ of theinner leg 34. - As shown in
FIGS. 6 and 7 , thesecondary frame 30 may be a generally thin bracket, and may optionally be provided with a strengthening and stiffeningbead 35, giving it a more robust form, and increasing its lateral rigidity. The strengtheningbead 35 may be provided along either, or bothlegs - As discussed above, persons of skill in the art will recognize that the pivoting structure joining the
primary frame 20 and thesecondary frame 30 may be made in many different ways known in the art, either by directly connecting the two frames directly, or by using intermediary structures to do so. One such method for connecting theprimary frame 20 to thesecondary frame 30, described in greater detail in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/603,223, and in the concurrently filed non-provisional application entitled Hinged Wiper Blade filed concurrently herewith uses a turn-buckle holder 51 made up of twoholder halves 52 held together by a rivet 50. Thus, when assembled, oneholder half 52 is attached to thesecondary frame 30 opposite theother holder half 52 at the central pivot connection portion 31 wherein the central pivot connection portion 31 is inserted into thechannel 54 formed between theupper channel wall 56 andlower channel wall 57 of eachholder half 52. The holder halves 52 are then pushed together such that the holder half's 52projections 55 engage therecesses 32 on the central pivot connection portion 31 of thesecondary frame 30. Alternatively, in embodiments where the central pivot connection portion 31 has projections, the holder halves 52 can be implemented so as to have recesses to receive such projections. - Once the
holder 52 halves have been pushed together such that the turn-buckle holder 51 contains thesecondary frame 30 within itschannel 54, the turn-buckle holder 51 can be placed between thepivot extension walls 23 of theprimary frame 20, and a rivet 50 (shown inFIG. 8 ) can be passed through theholes 24 in thepivot extension walls 23 and through therivet passage 53 in the turn-buckle holder 51 and secured on the opposite side. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that various modifications of such a structure can be made while remaining within the scope of the disclosed concepts, including without limitation, providing protrusions on thepivot extension walls 23 which can engage therivet passage 53 in the holder, or providing the holder 51 with protrusions that can engage theholes 24 in thepivot extension walls 23.FIGS. 9-12 show various views of the holder 51.FIG. 12 , in particular, shows a cross-section of the turn-buckle holder 51 taken through thechannel 54 along its plane. As can be seen inFIG. 12 , the projections inside the holder halves 52 (and thus also the correspondingrecesses 32 in the secondary frame 30) can be made of varying sizes, and need not be symmetric with theprojections 55 in theopposite holder half 52. In certain embodiments, such as that depicted inFIG. 12 , two different sizes ofprojections 55 may be used in the holder halves 52 in order to facilitate proper alignment of thesecondary frame 30 with the turn-buckle holder 51 during assembly. In an alternative embodiment, the turn-buckle holder 51 is a unitary structure. Such a structure can be made through insert molding, where the unitary turn-buckle holder is molded around the secondary frame. This provides a tighter grip by the turn-buckle holder on the secondary frame. -
FIGS. 13-16 show various views of aholder half 52. As can best be seen inFIGS. 13 and 15 , thelower channel wall 57 may be angled, or curved in order to allow pivoting of thesecondary frame 30 within the turn-buckle holder 51, or to facilitate the attachment of the turn-buckle holder to thesecondary frame 30 by providing a wider entry point on the edges of thechannel 54 in theholder half 52 while still providing a snug-fitting attachment in the middle portion of theholder half 52. Alternatively, both thetop channel wall 56 and thelower channel wall 57 may be shaped to follow the contour of the central pivot connection portion 31 of thesecondary frame 30 or to facilitate insertion of thesecondary frame 30 into the holder halves 52. This novel pivot-hinge connection between the primary and secondary frames can be accomplished within the limited height of thepivot extension walls 23 of theprimary frame 20, and thus allows the disclosed wiper blade to maintain a relatively low profile, thereby reducing the effect of wind-lift on the wiper blade at high speeds and reducing or obviating the need for a spoiler on the wiper blade. - The ends of the
secondary frame 30 may either be provided with a wiper strip holder, such as theclaws 43 on thetertiary frames connection extension 36 having a structure to connect to atertiary frame FIGS. 6-7 and 17-21 the connection between thesecondary frame 30 and the tertiary frame(s) 41, 42 is formed by passing a pivoting stud 44 through a hole 42 in the central joint connection portion of the tertiary frame and ahole 37 in theconnection extensions 36 on thesecondary frame 30. As shown inFIG. 21 , the pivoting stud 44 has atertiary base portion 45 sized to fit in the hole 42 of thetertiary frame tertiary frame tertiary frame FIG. 21 ) or angled in order to facilitate the pivoting of thetertiary frame hole 37 of the secondary frame, and the height of the neck is approximately the same as the thickness of theconnection extension 36 of thesecondary frame 30. During assembly, the pivoting stud's 44 top portion 48 and neck 46 are inserted intohole 37 in theconnection extension 36 of thesecondary frame 30, and then turned such that the top portion 48 is perpendicular to the long side of thehole 37 in theconnection extension 36. Accordingly a high friction material, such as natural or synthetic rubber is preferred for the pivoting stud 44, but plastic and/or other suitable materials may also be used. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that alternative forms of connecting the tertiary frames to the secondary frames may be used within the scope of the disclosed concepts, and that any of the forms for creating a pivoting structure/joint between the primary and secondary frames discussed above could be implemented between the secondary and tertiary frames, and vice versa. - The tertiary frames 40, 41 may be symmetrical
tertiary frames 40 or asymmetrical tertiary frames 41. In certain embodiments, as shown inFIGS. 2-3 , it may be advantageous to use symmetricaltertiary frames 40 on theconnection extensions 36 nearer to the middle of the wiper blade, and asymmetrictertiary frames 41 on theconnection extensions 36 nearer to the extremities of the wiper blade. In such embodiments it may be advantageous to put the longer leg of the asymmetrictertiary frames 41 extending outward from the wiper blade so as to provide a better wrap around the surface of a curved windshield of a vehicle. - Whether symmetric or asymmetric, the tertiary frames are provided with
claws 43 which support thewiper strip 15. The wiper blade described herein can use any of the traditional wiper strips known in the art, which generally have a base portion having grooves into which metal vertebrae are inserted to provide lateral support for thewiper strip 15. Alternatively, the wiper blade described above can be implemented using the wiper strip carrier described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/558,624, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, and is attached hereto. - As shown in
FIGS. 19 and 20 , the tertiary strip may have a structure to support and/or secure thecover FIGS. 19 and 20 is a chamfered “T” shaped structure 49 which the end of the cover can grip onto and support itself. Such a support structure can be put on either an asymmetrictertiary frame 41, as shown, or on a symmetrictertiary frame 40. Any other types of supporting structures for thecover tertiary frames secondary frame 30 as well. - The novel “soft”
cover 60 introduced in this provisional patent application can be used with any known type of wiper blade, including the above-described wiper blade, beam blades, - The wiper blade covers on commercial wiper blades (whether with or without spoilers) generally have a hard plastic cap (see U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,293,321 and 7,523,520) hovering over the connection device (See U.S. Pat. No. 6,944,905). Particularly in beam blades, the hard plastic cap above the cover must leave a gap between the top surface of the cover and the bottom surface of the cap. Failure to leave such a gap results in the cap pushing down on the cover during the operation of the wiper blade, which compresses the material of the cover, and exerts a force onto the beam or other support structure, which can have adverse effects on the wipe quality of the wiper blade. Similarly, designing a connection device to form a contact seal with a cover can really only be done by custom-tailoring the wiper blade to a particular curvature of a particular windshield. Thus for aftermarket wiper blades, where the manufacturer does not know what windshield its products will be used on, the required specific calculations cannot be made across multiple windshields, and thus the same problem of cover-material compression and adverse forces on the beam/support structure may be present on some windshields but not others. Accordingly most wiper blade manufacturers (particularly after-market manufacturers) provide wiper blades with a gap between the cover and the cap or other structure that covers it. The novel “soft”
cover 60 presented in this application solves these problems by reversing the order of the pieces. This allows the relatively softer material on thecover side sections 64 stretch when necessary as the wiper moves over the windshield, which lessens or eliminates the adverse forces put upon the beam, vertebrae and/or support structure of the wiper blade. At the same time the relatively harder material of thecover center section 61 helps secure the connection with thecover side sections 64. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that it is not necessary for thecover center section 61 to be made from a harder material than thecover side sections 64. Indeed they can be made from the same material. Suitable materials for both thecover center section 61 and thecover side sections 64 include natural and synthetic rubber, plastic, and other materials known in the art. However, in some embodiments it has been found advantageous to use a plastic material with a Shore hardness A values above 90 in thecover center section 61, and plastic, natural rubber, or synthetic rubber material with Shore hardness A values between 60 and 90 in thecover side sections 64. Improved results have been found using a material of Shore hardness A between 80 and 88 in thecover side sections 64, as it is still flexible enough not to affect the beam/support structure, but hard enough to maintain good grips on thecover center section 61 as well as on the wiper blade'sprimary frame 20,secondary frame 30,tertiary frame - Accordingly a cover center (“hard”)
section 61 is provided withside connecting structures 62, and top recesses/holes 63 which receive correspondingside receiving structures 65 andtop projections 66 from thecover side sections 64. Thecover center section 61 is preferably, but not necessarily, made from a harder material than thecover side sections 64. -
FIGS. 22-24 show the novel “soft” cover with thecover center section 61 and thecover side sections 64 connected.FIG. 24 , which has a cross-sectional view, shows the mechanics of the connections between the sections of thecover 60, showing thetop projections 66 on thecover side sections 64 engaging the top recesses/holes 63 in thecover center section 61. - As shown in
FIGS. 25-26 , the top holes 63 in thecover center section 61 may be located on a recessed ledge such that when thecover side sections 64 are attached, a smooth, continuous surface is present on the combined structure (seeFIG. 22-24 ). Theside connecting structures 62 on thecover center section 61 may project outwardly from the main body of the of thecover center section 61, and may optionally include bottom projections (shown inFIGS. 24-26 ) which grip a corresponding recess or hole in the cover side sections' 64side receiving structures 65. Theseside connecting structures 62 may further be laterally recessed in order to provide a smooth transition of the outer surfaces of the cover center section and thecover side sections 64 on the sides as well. Moreover, the recessed ledge housing thetop hole 63 and the recessedside connecting structures 62 may be joined such that the cover side section lip which covers these structures forms a seal along the boundary of these structures to prevent any water or debris from entering therein. The cover center section may have a hole for the connection device to pass through, and may haveinternal grips 68 which grip may be used to grip theprimary frame 20,connection device 10, and/or beam (in the case of beam or hybrid wiper blades). -
FIGS. 27 and 28 show the corresponding structures on thecover side sections 64 that connect it to thecover center section 61. Theside receiving structures 65 on thecover side sections 64 receive theside connecting structures 62 from thecover center section 61. As shown inFIG. 28 , theseside receiving structures 65 may have a recess or hole in them to receive the optional bottom projection of theside connecting structures 62. For added ease of making the connection, and to ensure a better connection, as shown inFIGS. 24 & 29 , theside receiving structures 65 can project outwardly from thecover side section 64. This increases the surface area of the side connections, and provides a guiding path for the insertion of theside connecting structures 62 into theside receiving structures 65. Thetop projection 66 may be located on a lip of the which may be elevated, or have a smaller thickness than the main walls of the cover side section in order to facilitate the smooth transition in the outer surface of the joinedcover center section 61 and coverside sections 64. This lip may also help form a seal to keep water and debris out of the internal structure of the wiper blade. Accordingly, thetop projection 66 andside receiving structures 65 together with thetop hole 63 and side connecting structures form a three sided locking mechanism which ensures better protection against the elements without interfering with the operation of the underlying support structure, whether it is brackets or beams. -
FIG. 28 also shows several different kinds of internal grip structures. The contouredgrip 68 a extends back from theside receiving structures 65, gripping and following the contour of the bottom of theprimary frame 20, including sloping downwards towards the end of the grip structure to follow the contour of thepivot extension walls 23. The rib grip 68 b acts both as a structural supporting rib, and as a loose grip on thesecondary frame 30, and has a recess cut into it to accommodate abead 35 on thesecondary frame 30. This loose grip allows the secondary frame to move upwards and downwards during operation of the wiper blade within a set range without interfering with the movement of thesecondary frame 30. The loose internal grip can also be used on the “quarter” portion of beam/hybrid blades—half way between the center and the end of the beam—to give that part of the beam room to bend without interfering with its behavior. Intermittent or continuous claw-like grips (not shown) can also be used, particularly on beam blades and/or hybrid blades where the cover must be secured to the beam. One possibleinternal end grip 69 is also shown inFIG. 28 . This grip has a slotted pocket in the end portion of the cover which receives the chamfered “T” structure on thetertiary frame 41 of the above-described wiper blade. Other types of end grips may be used, including detents, dovetails, projections, and all such end grips described in U.S. patent application Ser. Nos. 13/453,601, 13/572,100 and 13/587,389, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. - A second type of novel cover—a “hard”
cover 70 is presented inFIGS. 30-52 . As shown inFIG. 30 , thecover 70 may be composed of multiple segments. Acenter cover segment 71 has anopening 74 through which theconnection device 10 can be passed.Secondary cover segments 72 can be attached to each side of thecentral cover segment 71. Optional,tertiary cover segments 73 can be attached to the outer ends of thesecondary cover segments 72. Additional cover segments can also be used on covers of this type. The outermost end of the outermost segment has anend section 75. The segments of the “hard” cover are preferably made of a plastic, and need not actually be “hard”. It can be advantageous to use a plastic having a Shore hardness A of greater than 90. However, any suitable material known in the art can be used to make thecover 70, including materials having a Shore hardness A values of 90 or less. -
FIGS. 31-37 illustrate various views of thecenter cover segment 71 of thecover 70. The end sections of thecenter cover segment 71 has receiving walls 711, which are used to connect to thesecondary cover segments 72 using a pivoting connection. The receiving walls 711 may have a receivingchannel 712 and a seating recess 713 which receives aprojection 722 from thesecondary cover segments 72. The a seating hole may also be used in place of a seating recess 713. In some embodiments it may be advantageous for the receiving walls to be narrower than the main walls of thecenter cover segment 71, or to have the receiving walls 711 taper so as to allow them to deflect enough to allow the insertion of theprojections 722 of thesecondary cover segment 72. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that the projection may be located on thecenter cover segment 71, and that the seating recess may be located on thesecondary cover segment 72. Likewise other pivoting connections known in the art, including the use of rivets, or additional structures known in the art which allow the center cover segment and the secondary cover segment to form a pivoting connection may also be used. - The
center cover segment 71 may also have a lip 714 which can cover the sides of the connection device, and holdgrips 715 and/or other structures which can help secure thecenter cover segment 71 to theprimary frame 20. Additionalinternal grips 717, 718 can be located along the inner surface of thecenter cover section 71 and may also help secure the center cover section to theprimary frame 20. As can be seen inFIGS. 33 and 34 , theinternal grips 717, 718 may be implemented as appropriate to fit a particular design ofprimary frame 20. For instance the inner internal grips 717 are sized to secure the shorter middle portion of theside walls 22 of theprimary frame 20, while the outerinternal grips 718 are sized to secure the largerpivot extension walls 23 of theprimary frame 20. - As shown in
FIGS. 30, 31, 33 and 34 , thecover 70 may be provided with fluting 716 on its outer walls. The fluting may act as an aerofoil to help increase the downward force on the wiper blade at higher speeds. Alternatively the cover may be shaped to embody a spoiler, with or without fluting. Such spoilers can be embodied as a symmetric isosceles triangle (with or without fluting), as an asymmetric right triangle (with or without fluting), or in any other suitable shape. Similarly, embodiments of thecover 70 that do not have a spoiler may also be symmetric, as shown inFIGS. 30-51 , or asymmetric. -
FIGS. 38-43 illustrate various views of thesecondary cover segments 72 of thecover 70. The inner side of the secondary cover segment includes a connectingwall 721 which contains aprojections 722 which pass through the receivingchannel 712 and into the seating recess 713 of the receiving wall 711 of thecenter cover segment 71. The connectingwall 721 may be narrowed, or may taper in order to bend to allow the insertion of theprojection 722 into the seating recess 713. As best shown inFIGS. 39 and 41 , the connectingwall 721 is preferably laterally recessed, such that the receiving wall 711 of thecenter cover segment 71 can cover it. Theouter edge 723 of the inner side of thesecondary cover segment 72 and the edge of the receiving wall 711 may have complementary shapes which allow thesecondary cover segment 72 and thecenter cover segment 71 to form a pivot joint that can move during the operation of the windshield wiper as the curvature of the windshield underneath thewiper strip 15 changes. Theouter edge 723 of the inner side of thesecondary cover segment 72 may also define a coveringportion 724 which covers a portion of the outer edge of thecenter cover segment 71, and can help prevent water, ice or debris from entering the internal structure of the wiper blade. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that a covering portion can instead be located on the receiving walls of the center cover segment, and can cover corresponding portions of the inner side of the secondary cover segment. Persons of skill in the art will also recognize that a covering wall (not shown) can be used to join the portions of the edge of the segment that is covered by the coveringportion 724, in order to increase the protection against debris, water and ice at the joint between the center cover segment and the secondary cover segment. - The secondary cover segment may have an
end section 75, or it may have asecond receiving wall 725 with a second receiving channel 726 and asecond seating recess 727 which connect thesecondary cover segment 72 to atertiary cover segment 73. Persons of skill in the art will recognize that it is not necessary for thecover 70 to be symmetric, or to have the same number of segments on each side of thecenter cover segment 71. As discussed above, persons of skill in the art will also recognize that the projections and recesses connecting the cover segments may be reversed, and that other pivoting structures such as rivets may be used to make the pivoting connection between the cover segments. - As illustrated n
FIGS. 42 and 43 , thesecondary cover segment 72 may also haveinternal grips secondary cover segment 72 covers. Theinternal grips secondary frame 30 of the wiper blade. The internal grips may be sized to form a tight grip on the corresponding portion of the frame, or may be sized larger than the frame in order to give the frame a defined freedom of movement within the grip to allow for greater variability in its positioning during the operation of the wiper blades, as the curvature of the windshield under the wiper changes. - An embodiment of a tertiary cover segment is illustrated in
FIGS. 33-50 . The depictedtertiary cover segment 73 has a second connectingwall 731 having asecond projection 732 which engages thesecond seating recess 727 on thesecond receiving wall 725 of thesecondary cover segment 72. Thetertiary cover segment 73 may have anouter edge 733 which is shaped complementary to thesecond receiving wall 725 of thesecondary cover segment 72 so as to allow the joint between thesecondary cover segment 72 and thetertiary cover segment 71 to pivot and move during the operation of the wiper blade. Thetertiary cover segment 73 may have asecond covering portion 734 which covers the corresponding portion of the receivingwall 725 of thesecondary cover segment 72 so as to help prevent water, ice and debris from entering the internal structure of the wiper blade. The edge of thesecond receiving wall 725 may be provided with a wall to help cover the region underneath thesecond covering portion 734 to add additional protection against the elements. - As can be seen in
FIGS. 46 and 47 , on the second connecting wall, opposite thesecond projections 732, reinforcing projections may be added to strengthen the integrity of the second connectingwall 731, and the connection between thesecondary cover segment 72 and thetertiary cover segment 73. The second connectingwall 731 may be narrow, or may taper, so as to allow it to deflect enough to allow the second projection to enter thesecond seating recess 727. Again, a hole may be used in place of the second seating recess 726, and other pivoting connections known in the art, such as rivets, may also be used to establish the joint connection between thetertiary cover segments 73 and thesecondary cover segments 72. - The receiving
channel 712 and second receiving channel 726 may be provided with a ramp or chamfer structure to facilitate the insertion of thecorresponding projection 722 andsecond projection 732 into same. - The
tertiary cover segments 73 may be provided with internal grips to secure the segments to the corresponding portion of the cover, as described above relating to the internal grips of thecenter cover segment 71 and thesecondary cover segments 72. The tertiary cover segment may also be provided with ribs between the side walls to give them additional structural strength and stability. Indeed, ribs may be provided to any of thecover segments sections - The
tertiary cover segment 73 may optionally connect to additional cover segments (not shown), or may have on their outer end anend section 75. Theend section 75 of thecover 70 may optionally have a securing structure, connecting the end section to the frame of the wiper blade. One such structure is depicted inFIG. 51 , shows arecess 751 and adetent 752 that are shaped to engage the “T” shaped ends of the outertertiary frames 41 of the wiper blades. As described above in connection with the “soft” cover, numerous structures are known in the art for forming that sort of connection, including without limitation the structures described in the patents and patent applications incorporated therein by reference, and all such structures and other structures known in the art may be used, and are contemplated as within the scope of the disclosed concepts. - A novel hybrid wiper blade is presented in
FIG. 54 . A specific embodiment of this hybrid wiper blade is set forth in concurrently filed provisional patent application entitled Hinged Wiper Blade filed concurrently herewith. The novel hybrid wiper blade generally has a primary frame, which may be as described above, and can be generally flat, curved, triangular, or have any other suitable desired shape. Theprimary frame 120 preferably has a connection device 110 attached to its top surface or formed integrally therewith, in any of the methods known in the art or depicted above. At either end the primary frame connects to a pair ofbeams 130, preferably made from spring-elastic steel, although other suitable materials may be used. As described above with respect to theconnection device 1 inFIG. 1 , any manner of connector, adaptor or specialized design for a particular wiper arm known in the art can be used with the connection device 110. - The connection between the
beams 130 and theprimary frame 120 is preferably formed by a pivot joint of some sort. This may be accomplished in any method currently known in the art. For example thebeams 130 may be provided with structures (similar to aconnection device 10, 110) having a two pairs of claws which are crimped, welded or form-fitted onto thebeams 130, and having two parallel side walls having which may have projection, recesses or holes, rivets or other structures which can attach to recesses or holes, projections, clips and/or holes, and other complementary structures on the ends of theprimary frame 120 in order to form a pivoting connection. Thebeams 130 may be symmetric across the pivot joint in length and/or curvature, or asymmetric (as shown inFIG. 54 ). -
Tertiary frames 140 are secured to thebeams 130, and in turn secure the wiper strip (and any vertebrae, and/or wiper strip carrier as described above. The connection between thebeams 130 and thetertiary frames 140 may be made in any manner known in the art, including the use of pivoting studs 44 and other pivot joints known in the art as described above. Like the inner and outertertiary frames FIG. 54 may have symmetric or asymmetric tertiary frames 140. Additionally, any one or more of the connection device 110,primary frame 120,beams 130, andtertiary frames 140 may be provided with structure to help it connect to acover - The descriptions set forth above are meant to be illustrative and not limiting, and persons of skill in the art will recognize that various common and known deviations from the above described structures are considered to be within the scope of the disclosed concepts described herein.
