Abstract
A windshield wiper assembly, especially though not exclusively for a motor vehicle, includes a shroud extending at right angles to a windshield wiper motor axis. A wiper arm is coupled to the axis and is articulated to the shroud. The assembly includes an armature and a wiping strip depending from the armature. The armature includes a plurality of members which are articulated together through pivots, and some of these members constitute part of the shroud over part of their length, such that the armature is part of the enclosing shroud. Yokes which distribute the applied pressure to the wiping strip are themselves pivoted to the armature and supported from the same pivots.
