Abstract

A wiper blade (10) for cleaning windows (26) of motor vehicles has an elongated, rubber-elastic wiper strip (14), which can be pressed against the window (26) to be wiped and is held substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis on an elongated, spring-elastic support element (12), to whose middle portion, remote from the window (26), a connection device (16) for counterpart connection means of a driven wiper arm, which means can be loaded toward the window (26), are disposed. Problem-free, economical disposition of the connection device (16) on the support element (12) is obtained if the connection device (16) is embodied as a separate component and secured to the support element (12) by means of an adhesive.
