Abstract

A tubular plate is formed for a wiper device as a support for at least one wiper bearing and a wiper drive, with tubular members for receiving a wiper bearing. The tubular plate is deformed without removal of a material, has tubular members for receiving the wiper drive, and the tubular members are formed on the tubular plate of one piece with it.
