Method for controlling a windscreen-wiping device, and windscreen-wiping device for a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for open-loop control of a wiper system for a motor vehicle, comprising the steps of providing at least one drive device (16), at least one gear (14), which switches the motion of the drive device (16) to at least one wiper shaft (34) and has a gear ratio that depends on the position of the gear (14), and at least one open-loop control unit (24), which controls the torque that can be output by the drive device (16) by means of a driven shaft (26), using the control unit (24) to determine the torque that can be output by the drive device (16) at every instant, taking the gear ratio into account.

Abstract
A method for the open-loop control of a wiper system (10), and a wiper system (10), in particular for a motor vehicle includes at least one drive device (16), at least one gear (14), which switches the motion of the drive device (16) to at least one wiper shaft (34) and has a gear ratio that depends on the position of the gear (14), and at least one open-loop control unit (24), which controls the torque that can be output by the drive device (16) by means of a driven shaft (26). The control unit (24) determines the torque that can be output by the drive device (16) at every instant, taking the gear ratio into account.

10. A wiper system (10) for a motor vehicle, wherein the wiper system is controlled by an open loop control method, said system having at least one drive device (16), at least one gear (14), which switches the motion of the drive device (16) to at least one wiper shaft (34) and has a gear ratio that depends on the position of the gear (14), and at least one open-loop control unit (24), which controls the torque that can be output by the drive device (16) by means of a driven shaft (26), characterized in that the control unit (24) determines the torque that can be output by the drive device (16) at every instant, taking the gear ratio into account.
