Abstract
516,232. Windscreen-cleaners. HOUDAILLE HYDRAULIC SUSPENSION CO., Ltd., and. KING, A. W. June 18, 1938, No. 18155. [Class 138 (i)] The driving mechanism between the wiper arm and its driving spindle is adjustable, continuously through a range of settings so that the angle of oscillation of the arm may be adjusted to suit windscreens of different sizes. As shown, a spindle 12 is rotated by a flexible shaft through a worm and worm wheel 16, 15. A crank-pin 19 is adjustably secured to the worm wheel or to a disc 21 thereon by means of a flange 20 which is pivoted at 28 and locked by a nut and bolt 30 engaging in a slot 29. Alternative holes 31 for the bolt are provided. The crank-pin drives the wiper 13 through a link 22, segment 24, and gear 26. The spindles preferably are mounted in ball bearings. In a modification, the link 22 is formed as a strap embracing an eccentric-disc which is adjustably pivoted to a modified form of the disc 21. Alternative pivoting points provide for the angle of oscillation of the wiper to be varied over different ranges of adjustment. Adjustment of the crank-pin or the eccentric disc may be effected by sliding movement in guideways, instead of by pivotal movement.
