Boneless wiper blade
First Claim
1. A boneless wiper blade comprising a pivot socket, two end ferrules, a spring steel sheet and a rubber strip, wherein the spring steel sheet is used to support and fix the rubber strip, and the pivot socket, on which a connecting adaptor is installed to connect with wiper arms, is installed on a center of the spring steel sheet and the rubber strip, with the two end ferrules mounted at both ends of the spring steel sheet and the rubber strip;
- characterized in that a crest section of each end ferrule is eccentrically set so that a longer side of the crest section forms an inwardly curved surface;
the crest section and the curved surface is integrated as a smooth curve;
an externally curved surface, whose cross section is upwardly convex arc-shaped and integrated with the crest section and the curved surface, is provided at an outer end of each end ferrule;
the spring steel sheet is in parabolic shape with a gradually changing curvature, and has no arch section joint;
one piece of the spring steel sheet is placed on the rubber strip which features first grooves and second grooves longitudinally at both ends;
two spacers are mounted into the first grooves, and barbs of several clips are threaded through square holes in the spring steel sheet, and fitted into the second grooves to assemble the spring steel sheet, the rubber strip and the spacers together.

Abstract
The prevent invention discloses a boneless wiper blade, which mainly consists of a pivot socket, two end ferrules, spring steel sheet and rubber strip, wherein the spring steel sheet is used to support and fix the rubber strip, and the pivot socket, on which the connecting adaptors are installed to connect with wiper arms, is mounted on the center of the spring steel sheet and the rubber strip, with end ferrules mounted at both ends of them. The upper part of the wind-pressure sheathes featuring specially curved surface is designed to prevent the wiper blade from lifting off from the surface of the windshield at highway speeds. The said spring steel sheet is so parabolically designed that the rubber strip can firmly and closely contact the various windshield glasses. Both connecting structures between the connecting adaptor and the pivot socket, and the pivot socket and the spring steel sheet and rubber strip are removable, it is same with the connecting structure between end ferrule and spring steel sheet and rubber strip. In this way, it is easy to assemble, dismount and replace them, and even facilitate use of them. The wiper blade has strong compatibility in that the pivot socket can be mounted with various kinds of connecting adaptors to be compatible with multiple wiper arm configurations.
