Abstract

A wiper arm arrangement with a wiper arm of a windscreen wiper system of a vehicle and an attachment element having at least one line. The attachment element can be coupled to a connecting element designed for holding a wiper blade and for connecting the wiper blade to the wiper arm. Due to the coupling, at least one corresponding line of the connecting element can be joined onto the at least one line of the attachment element. The connecting element can be fitted onto the attachment element in an installation direction which coincides at least substantially with a direction of longitudinal extent of the wiper arm. The attachment element is arranged on the wiper arm so as to be movable in the direction of longitudinal extent of the wiper arm.
