Abstract
A wiper blade is suggested for cleaning window panes in motor vehicles. The wiper blade (10) has an elongated rubber-elastic wiping strip (20) which can contact the window pane (18) and is provided at both of its longitudinal sides (30) with open-edged longitudinal receiving grooves which are arranged in a plane approximately parallel to the window pane and in which a strip-like, elongated, resilient carrying rail (12) is accommodated in each instance. The inner edges of the carrying rail (12) which face one another contact a longitudinal web (36) of the wiping strip remaining between the grooves (32) and the two carrying rails (12) are secured in their receiving grooves transverse to their longitudinal extension by a holder which is arranged at the upper strip surface (13) of the carrying rails remote of the window pane. The holder is provided with L-shaped claws (46), the first L-leg (48) traversing the outer edges (52) of the carrying rails and the second L-leg (50) engaging under the respective carrying rail (12). A wiper blade (10) which can be mounted in a particularly advantageous manner is provided when the distance (60) measured transverse to the longitudinal extension of …
