Wiper blade portion

The invention is based on a wiper blade () having a wiper strip () and a support element () at whose ends endcaps () are guided, said endcaps () at their end sides () facing the ends of the wiper blade () extending as far as a wiper lip () via the support element (), wherein at least one endcap () has a lid () which is connected to the endcap () so as to be capable of pivoting about an articulation axis () transversely with respect to the wiper blade () and has a gudgeon () on its side facing the head strip (), which gudgeon () penetrates the head strip () when the lid () is closed. It is proposed that the tip of the gudgeon () be secured by parts of the endcap () or of the lid () against contact both in the opened state of the lid () and in the closed state.

Wiper blade

A wiper blade for cleaning windows of motor vehicles has a support bracket system having retaining claws disposed on claw brackets. The retaining claws grip a head strip of a wiper strip of an elastic material which is fixed longitudinally with a securing body shaped from sheet metal. The securing body is solidly joined to the wiper strip and engages the retaining claw from behind at least with a hook in the form of a snap connection disposed on one wiper arm. The hook is shaped by bending or swaging of the arm and is adjoined in the assembly direction by a guide face.
