Abstract
An intermittent rotary motion mechanism for use in an automotive vehicle includes an electromagnetic device, a member moving in response to selective energization of the electromagnetic device, an intermittent motion mechanism and a window wiper shaft coupled to the intermittent motion mechanism. The intermittent motion mechanism moves the wiper shaft in a first wiping positional range when the electromagnetic device moves the member a first predetermined amount. The intermittent motion mechanism further moves the wiper shaft to a park position when the electromagnetic device moves the member a second predetermined amount in a first direction. The wiper shaft is mechanically deterred from movement from the park position concurrently with the electromagnetic device further moving the member past the second predetermined amount in the first direction.
