| 20080216274 | Wiping Device - A wiping device for vehicle windows including a wiper blade on at least one wiper arm, wherein the wiper blade is intended for an initial movement from a home position into a reversal position, and a return movement from the reversal position into the home position, and a spray device including numerous spray or nozzle openings, arranged successively in a longitudinal wiper blade direction and assigned to two longitudinal wiper blade sides, for ejecting a washing or cleaning fluid onto the vehicle window, wherein the spray device is formed so that after activation of the spray and wiping process, a greater quantity of washing or cleaning fluid is ejected on the longitudinal wiper blade side which leads in the initial movement, at least during the initial movement of the wiper blade, than on the longitudinal wiper blade side which follows in the initial movement and leads in the return movement. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080229537 | VEHICLE WIPER/WASHER CONTROL APPARATUS AND VEHICLE WIPER/WASHER APPARATUS - If a washer switch is turned on in a state in which a wiper determining portion determines that a wiper switch is in an OFF state, and a vehicle speed determining portion determines that a vehicle speed is equal to or more than a predetermined speed, a simultaneous operation control portion ejects the washer fluid in a state in which the wiper is positioned at a lower reversing position. The simultaneous operation control portion causes the wiper to reciprocate at least once simultaneously with the ejection. The simultaneous operation control portion additionally ejects the washer fluid at least once, in a state in which the wiper is positioned at an intermediate position between the lower reversing position and an upper reversing position. Accordingly, it is possible to inhibit a lack of the washer fluid from being generated on the surface to be wiped. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20120192375 | DEVICE FOR SUPPLYING A CLEANING LIQUID FOR AN AUTOMOBILE - The invention relates to a device ( | 08-02-2012 |
| 20130255023 | WASHING DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - When receiving no reverse state signal, which indicates that a vehicle is in reverse, a wash control circuit allows the actuation of the wiper motor by the interlocking operation and retains a changeover valve device on the side of the window washing nozzle. When receiving a reverse state signal, the wash control circuit switches the changeover valve device from the window washing nozzle to a camera washing nozzle and inhibits the actuation of the wiper motor by the interlocking operation. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20150082574 | Wiper Washer Apparatus - A wiper washer apparatus sprays a washer liquid onto a windshield of a vehicle that has imaging areas of an imaging device and wipes the windshield. The apparatus includes a wiper arm that reciprocates a blade so as to wipe a predetermined wiping area, a spray unit that sprays the washer liquid onto the wiping area on the windshield from a nozzle provided on the wiper arm, a drive unit that drives the wiper arm in a mode selected from modes including at least a low speed mode and a high speed mode, and an input unit through which a user inputs a command for spraying the washer liquid. | 03-26-2015 |
| 20160090067 | VEHICLE WIPER DEVICE - A vehicle wiper device includes: a first blade having an operating range that includes an upper mid region of a vehicle windshield; a second blade having an operating range that includes a lower region of the operating range of the first blade; a blade driving unit that causes each blade to reciprocate; and a controller that controls operation of the blade driving unit. When a tip end of the second blade moves in a special control region that is oriented toward a specific region preliminarily specified in the upper mid region, the controller controls the blade driving unit such that a moving speed of the second blade is lower than a moving speed of the second blade when moving in another region. | 03-31-2016 |
| 20160090068 | VEHICLE WIPER DEVICE - A vehicle wiper device includes: a first blade having an operating range that includes an upper mid region of a vehicle windshield; a second blade having an operating range that includes a lower region of the operating range of the first blade; a cleaning-liquid feeding unit; a blade driving unit that causes each blade to reciprocate; and a controller that controls operation of the cleaning-liquid feeding unit and operation of the blade driving unit. The controller performs the control such that, after a series of normal operation in which the first blade and the second blade reciprocate while ejecting the cleaning liquid has been completed, additional movement operation is performed in a state where feeding of the cleaning liquid from the cleaning-liquid feeding unit is stopped. | 03-31-2016 |
