Abstract
A windshield wiper is provided with an electrical heater that extends along a face of secondary pressure frames used to carry a squeegee and forms a flexible support on a primary pressure frame. A shroud is wrapped about a primary pressure frame and is formed with a reversely bent portion to allow a bead portion of the squeegee to form its usual mounting function using a metal strip that can slide into grooves separating the bead portion from the flexible wiping edge. The shroud encloses an electrically heated chamber to prevent ice and snow deposits on the shroud.
