ABSTRACT:
A windshield wiper system for a vehicle has a wiper arm and a wiper blade connected to one end of the wiper arm. The wiper arm is mounted on a wiper pivot mounted on the vehicle body near an edge of the windshield of the vehicle and adapted to be pivoted back and forth about the wiper pivot between a first position and a second position to swing the wiper blade between a first reverse position and a second reverse position on the windshield when wiping the windshield. The wiper arm is arranged to be further pivoted to swing the wiper blade beyond the first reverse position to a concealed position below the windshield and to be held there. The wiper arm has a first arm portion connected to the wiper pivot at one end, a second arm portion connected to the wiper blade at one end and to the other end of the first arm portion at the other end by way of a joint which permits change in the angle between the first and second arm portions, and a spring which urges the first and second arm portions into a predetermined angular relationship. A stopper member is provided on the vehicle body to abut against the second arm portion to prevent the second arm portion from following the first arm portion when the wiper arm is pivoted beyond the position corresponding to the concealed position of the wiper blade, thereby changing the angle between the first and second arm portions overcoming the force of the spring.
