This application claims priority to and takes the benefit from Chinese Application No. 2017100007912.5 filed on Jan. 5, 2017, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.
The invention relates to the shape and assembly and connection methods of a new NFB wiper with multi-functional adaptors, especially a new wiper structure with multi-functional adaptors.
With continuous optimization and development of the automobile wiper system, the customers impose increasingly higher requirements on wipers, and the development of wipers tends to be diversified. As the wiper types increase continuously, the holdering adaptors for wipers also become varied in the market. To install holdering wipers for cars, the customers often spend a lot of time on determining the matching between wipers and automobile accessories. Moreover, owning to the monotonous design of wiper adaptors, the customers can use a single type of wipers only, which limits the customers' right to select wiper products of other types. The monotonous structure of wiper adaptors is unfavorable for the consumers to get more and better using experience.
The invention aims to overcome shortcomings of the existing technologies, and provide a new wiper structure with multi-functional adaptors. The wiper structure makes some differences to the traditional wiper adaptors; specifically, the single matching mode of the traditional wiper adaptors is canceled, and replaced by the multiple matching modes integrated on the same type of wipers. The structure allows assembly of various wipers without replacing the adaptors, so as to realize perfect match. The structure not only allows the customers to have more choices when replacing the wiper without any additional adaptor, but also can save the cost for replacement of adaptors.
The technical scheme of the invention is a new wiper structure with multi-functional adaptors, which consists of wiper joint, adaptors, holder, adaptor covers, two side covers, a bone frame, two rivet holes, two buckles, two branches, two springs and a rubber. The adaptors include adaptor I and adaptor II, and the adaptor covers include adaptor cover I and adaptor cover II. The feature is that: the adaptor I is set with adaptor I connecting hole, and the holder is installed with bearing shaft; the bearing shaft is of semi-hollow structure with one end closed, and equipped with guide pillar casing B123 on the inner side. Besides, the bearing shaft is set with chamfers at both ends, and provided with step-down groove on one side, which is clamped into the adaptor I connecting hole at the bearing shaft for fixation and connection purpose. In addition, the holder is also used for diversion. It is set with fixture block and cushion block. The bone frame is set with slot, and two cover connecting holes at both ends respectively. The holder is joined with the bone frame via the fixture block and slot. The bone frame will be clamped into the holder, and while the bone frame contacts cushion block of the holder, the fixture block will clamp the bone frame tightly at slot of the bone frame. It features simple assembly and firm structure.
The side cover is set with buckle and convex hull on the inner side. The bone frame is joined with the side cover via the convex hull and cover connecting hole. The convex hull of the side cover will be clamped into cover connecting hole of the bone frame. It features simple structure and close fitting.
The adaptor I is also set with convex hull I, convex hull II, convex block I, convex block II, pressing block, connecting hole, U-shaped column, groove convex block, cushion block groove, shaft, buckle and slideway. The connecting hole is set on one side of the adaptor I connecting hole, and axial compression groove is set provided under the connecting hole. The slideway is located at the bottom edge of adaptor I, and convex block II is set at the outer side of the slideway.
The pressing block is set at one end on the top of adaptor I. and the U-shaped column and convex hull II are on the inner side in the middle of adaptor I. The groove convex block is set on one side of the convex hull II, and buckle I is set on both sides on the other end of adaptor I.
The adaptor cover I is set with groove and cushion block on the inner side, and also side groove in the middle. The shaft of adaptor I will be clamped into groove of adaptor cover I, and adaptor cover I will rotate along the shaft freely. After assembly, the adaptor cover will be pressed to clamp the buckle into the side groove of adaptor cover I.
The adaptor II is set with fixture block I on both sides at the front end, and also holder hole and shaft hole in the middle, with the baffle plate set on both sides at the bottom between them. The adaptor II is set with shaft I at one end and convex plate at the other end on the top. The convex hull III is set symmetrically between the holder hole and shaft hole. The adaptor II (B2I) is installed with adaptor cover II, and the adaptor cover II is set with C-shaped shaft groove and cushion block I at one end on the inner side. The adaptor cover II is also provided with side groove I (B231) at both ends on the outer side. This group of adaptors can be matched with 10 types of wiper joints. The above-mentioned wiper joints include 9*3 U-hook, 9*4 U-hook, pinch tab 22, top lock 22, side lock 22, side pin, pinch tab button, side lock 17, top lock 16 and bayonet.
