The invention relates to a windscreen wiper drive arrangement () having a drive shaft (), extending out of a gear mechanism housing (), for a windscreen wiper, in which the drive shaft () is guided axially through a protective sleeve () which is sealed with respect to the drive shaft () by means of at least one inner sealing element () and with respect to a vehicle component () by means of at least one outer sealing element. The invention provides for the protective sleeve () to be secured to the gear mechanism housing in order to protect said protective sleeve against axial movement in the direction of the vehicle component () and/or against rotational movement relative to the gear mechanism housing () by frictional engagement and/or by means of at least one separate securing element ().

Windscreen wiper drive arrangement

The invention starts with a windshield wiper device (), in particular for a motor vehicle, with at least one drive element () that can be fastened to the vehicle body () and that has a driven shaft () and at least two axially rigid fastening elements (), which engage in receiving openings () on the vehicle body () and are provided with at least one damping element () for damping mechanical vibrations. It is proposed that the damping elements () are fastening blocks made of a rubber-elastic material and are fastened to the drive element (), that said damping elements are provided with slots () and are arranged in such a manner that they can be inserted in a first assembly direction () in the receiving openings () and prompted by a movement in a second assembly direction () transverse to the first direction the damping elements reach across the first edge () of the receiving opening () with a slot (), and that a locking element () secures the final position in the second assembly direction ().
