Abstract

The invention concerns a wiper device, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising a wiper arm (10a-10c, 10k, 10l) including a wiper rod (12a, 12c, 12k) for fixing a wiper blade, a fixing element (14a-14c, 14k, 14l) connected free of articulation to the wiper rod (12a, 12c, 12k) and at least one partial zone (16a-16m) having spring elasticity. It is proposed that the wiper arm (10a-10c, 10k, 10l) can shift essentially elastically from an operating configuration to at least one first stable configuration, wherein the wiper blade can be mounted and dismounted when the wiper arm (10a-10c, 10k, 10l) is in a mounted state.
