ABSTRACT:
To wipe an elongated, raked windshield, two of fixed length wipers are oscillated about pivot points located midway along the side edges of the windshield.
Consequently, a larger area wipe pattern is achieved than that which could be achieved by equivalent length wipers mounted in conventional locations. In addition, in the embodiment disclosed, the wiper pivot points are located beneath the housings of a pair of side mirrors. This allows a portion of the wipers to be covered when the wipers are parked, for aesthetic purposes.
