ABSTRACT:
A rocking wiper mechanism for achieving optimal surface clearance consists of a wiping blade secured in a rocking wiper bracket, a lost motion device connected to the rocking wiper bracket, and a rotating wiper arm driven by a drive output shaft. The lost motion device creates frictional movement between the wiping blade and the surface and allows a rocking motion between the rocking wiper bracket and the rotating wiper arm.
