Abstract
The invention is based on a wiper drive having a reversible geared motor, which is secured to a wiper mounting and on whose power takeoff shaft (12) a motor crank (14) is seated that is connected via at least one joint (16) to a lever gear which drives at least one windshield wiper. It is provided that either the motor crank (14) on the power takeoff shaft (12) of the geared motor, or a drive element (28) drivingly connected to the motor crank (14), cooperates with stops (18, 20, 32, 34) that prevent an overswing past the turning points of the windshield wiper.
