Abstract

A wiper blade includes a wiper strip, a lever assembly and a cover member. The lever assembly has a connecting arrangement and holding claws. The connecting arrangement is connected to a wiper arm. The holding claws hold the wiper strip. The cover member has a cover opening, which is opened on a wiper strip side thereof. The cover member receives the lever assembly through the cover opening. In an interior space between the cover member and the wiper strip, holder end side openings, each of which is a part of the cover opening, are covered by two connecting arrangement end side cover parts. In this way, in the interior space between the cover member and the wiper strip, spaces, into which fluid intrudes, are reduced.
