Abstract
Base end sides of washer tubesare arranged in an axial direction of a swinging shaft PS at one end portion of an arm head, and they are drawn out from a head side pipe housing portionso as to curve toward a side opposite to a shaft fixing portionside. Each of the washer tubesis wound around the shaft fixing portionduring swinging of the arm headwithout applying any load to the swinging shaft PS. No tension acts on each of the washer tubes, and each of the washer tubesis not rubbed against the shaft fixing portion. Therefore, deterioration of the washer tubescan be suppressed. When the washer tubesare wound around the shaft fixing portion, a periphery of the shaft fixing portionis suppressed from swelling outward in a radial direction thereof. This makes it possible to prevent the arm headaround the swinging shaft PS from increasing in size.
