Abstract
A wiper device having a wiper arm (20a; 20b; 20c), having at least one wiper blade (18a, 18a′, 18a″) which is coupled to the wiper arm (20a; 20b; 20c), which includes at least one wiper lip (22a, 22a′, 22a″) for wiping a surface (16a; 16b; 16c) of a protective element (14a; 14b; 14c) of a sensor device (12a), in particular of a Lidar device, and having a wiper arm guide unit (24a) which is provided for moving the wiper arm (20a; 20b; 20c) in an at least substantially translatory manner along a guide path (50a). It is proposed that the wiper device has a rotary joint (26a) by means of which the wiper blade (18a, 18a′, 18a″) is pivotably mounted on the wiper arm (20a; 20b; 20c).
