An electric motor drive unit for windshield wipers includes an electric motor having an electrical connection plug housing and a brush holder plate. The plug housing and brush holder plate are provided as an integral unit. The unit is secured between the motor housing and the gear housing. This arrangement and assembly of the drive unit is simplified and less expensive to manufacture.

Windshield wiper electric drive unit

This invention refers to a circuit arrangement for a motor for the purpose of driving a window in motor vehicles comprising a motor current supervising stage for switching the motor in case of blocking, wherein the motor current supervising stage responds to a change in time of the motor current. The dynamic supervising of the motor current offers a greater reliability than the known static supervising of the motor current. The circuit senses a rapid change in motor current to indicate that the window has met an undesired (e.g a human) obstacle.
