Abstract

A windshield wiper blade includes a wiping strip carried by gripping elements which are themselves part of an articulated support structure for the wiping strip, which is arranged to sweep a glass surface. At least one gripping element is carried by a sliding lever which is biassed outwardly by a spring so that an end portion of the wiping strip is urged towards the swept surface.
