Abstract
The wiper pivot unit for smoothly absorbing a load applied from the outside of a vehicle. The wiper pivot () has a pivot shaft (), a pivot holder () and a toothed washer (). The pivot shaft has a small-diameter section () and a large-diameter section (). The toothed washer is fitted on the large-diameter section to constrict it with a predetermined force. The toothed washer slips off the large-diameter section when a load of a predetermined value or more acts upon the pivot shaft. When the toothed washer is shifted to the small-diameter section, the pivot shaft descends smoothly along the pivot holder.
