Abstract

A windshield wiper assembling structure for preventing loose attachment of a driven wiper arm assembles the driven wiper arm having a hook arm on a windshield wiper fixing stage. The windshield wiper assembling structure includes an assembling stage and a positioning stage. The assembling stage has a through groove, an elastic blocking slice, and a first fastening groove which is formed at one side edge of the elastic blocking slice. The first fastening groove fastens on the windshield wiper fixing stage. The assembling stage has a containing groove on a top surface thereof to accommodate the hook arm. The positioning stage has a cover cap and a positioning arm which is extended from the cover cap. The positioning arm has a second fastening groove corresponding to the first fastening groove. The second fastening groove fastens on the windshield wiper fixing stage and corresponding to the first fastening groove.

Claims

1. A windshield wiper assembling structure for preventing loose attachment of a driven wiper arm, the assembling structure combining the driven wiper arm having a hook arm on a windshield wiper fixing stage;

the windshield wiper assembling structure comprising;

an assembling stage having a through groove, an elastic blocking slice arranged in a route of the through groove, and a first fastening groove formed at one side edge of the elastic blocking slice, the first fastening groove fastened on the windshield wiper fixing stage, the assembling stage having a containing groove on a top surface of the assembling stage to accommodate the hook arm; and

a positioning stage having a cover cap and a positioning arm extended from the cover cap, the hook arm plunged into the cover cap, the positioning arm having a second fastening groove corresponded to the first fastening groove, the positioning arm slid in the through groove and abutted by the elastic blocking slice, the second fastening groove fastened on the windshield wiper fixing stage and corresponding to the first fastening groove.

2. The windshield wiper assembling structure of claim 1, wherein the assembling stage has a first frame, a second frame, and a combining plate formed on top surfaces of the first frame and the second frame, the first frame and the second frame are arranged in a line.

3. The windshield wiper assembling structure of claim 2, wherein the first frame forms the through groove, the second frame forms a stop at an outer side of the second frame to abut against the driven wiper arm.

4. The windshield wiper assembling structure of claim 3, wherein the driven wiper arm has a projecting wing, the stop is wedge-shaped, the projecting wing abuts against one side edge of the stop.

5. The windshield wiper assembling structure of claim 2, wherein the elastic blocking slice is formed on a bottom surface of the first frame.

6. The windshield wiper assembling structure of claim 2, wherein the first fastening groove is arranged between the first frame and the second frame.
