Abstract
A wiper lever () with a wiper arm () and a wiper blade () linked to it to clean windows of motor vehicles in particular is proposed, whose wiper blade is provided with a band-like, long-stretched-out, elastic supporting element () that is curved in the longitudinal direction over its band surfaces (), which features a rubber elastic wiper strip () that can be applied to the window on its concave-curved band surface (), on whose convex-curved band surface () an articulated part () sits, on which an adapter () is positioned so that it can move in a pendulum fashion, which has walls () aligned in the longitudinal direction of the wiper blade and standing on the band surfaces of the supporting element () with planes situated at a distance from one another, and locking means () are arranged on the adapter that are moveable against a restoring force, which cooperate with counter-locking means () of the wiper arm. A particularly operationally reliable connection between the wiper arm and the wiper blade to form the wiper lever is achieved if the locking means are arranged on at least one of the two walls () and are moveable essentially transverse to the surfaces of these walls.
