Abstract

The invention is based on a plastic articulated arm (10) with a connection part (12) for a wiper blade formed at its outer end by the side walls (14), wherein the connection part (12) can engage in a hook-in box (42) of the wiper blade and is provided in the side walls (14), which serve to guide the wiper blade laterally, with an open hub (16) for a pivot pin (44) of the wiper blade. It is proposed that a window (32) be provided at least in one side wall (14) of the connection part (12) in the longitudinal direction of the articulated arm (10), in which window is arranged a spring tongue (34) which projects outwardly beyond the side wall (14).
