An electrical machine () comprising a fastening flange (), wherein the fastening flange () has a rim (), so that the fastening flange () is arranged on a housing part () of the electrical machine () in such a way that the fastening flange () surrounds the housing part () at least in sections in the circumferential direction () of the housing part () at least by way of the rim (), wherein the fastening flange () has at least one radially directed raised portion () which is integrally formed from the fastening flange () and bears against the housing part (), wherein at least one recess () is formed within the rim (), wherein the recess () influences the rigidity of the fastening flange ().

Electrical machine comprising a fastening flange

The invention relates to a windscreen wiper apparatus for a motor vehicle, having a wiper motor and having at least one wiper bearing in which a wiper shaft is mounted, it being possible to drive said wiper shaft by means of the wiper motor in order to operate a wiper arm which is connected to the wiper shaft, wherein the wiper bearing has a bearing pin () for holding a tubular support (), it being possible for said bearing pin to be fixed to the tubular support () by means of a crimp, characterized in that the bearing pin () has an outer contour () which is already formed, at least in a region of overlap with the crimp, so as to correspond to an inner contour () of the crimped tubular support (), before the crimp is introduced, and also to a method for producing said windscreen wiper apparatus.

Windshield wiper apparatus

A non-articulated wiper blade (), which is constructed of a wiper strip () having a wiper lip (), two spring rails () and a connecting device (), wherein the spring rails () engage in lateral longitudinal grooves of the wiper strip () that are open towards the outside and are clasped by claw feet () of a sheet metal claw () of the connecting device () from an outer narrow side. The claw feet () are bent around the narrow sides of the spring rails () during the assembly of the sheet metal claws (), wherein at least one layer () and/or an intermediate layer () of plastic are provided between the claw feet () on the one hand and the spring rails () on the other hand, which layers are manufactured separately from the wiper strip () and are adapted to the claw feet () as well as have a high coefficient of friction on their surface towards the sheet metal claw () and towards the spring rails ().
