Support element for a wiper drive
First Claim
1. A support element (105) for a wiper drive (100), comprising:
- a receiving portion (130) for attaching the wiper drive (100); and
a bearing point (135) for fixing the support element (105) to a surrounding structure (110), wherein the support element (105) comprises a predetermined breaking point (140), characterized by a contact portion (142), wherein a specified gap (150) lies between the contact portion (142) and the surrounding structure (110), a width of said gap being dependent on a force that acts on the support element (105), such that the contact portion (142) comes into contact with the surrounding structure (110) only when a specified force acting on the support element (105) is exceeded, and wherein a projection (145) is formed on the contact portion (142), said projection extending in a direction of the surrounding structure (110), and wherein the support element (105) is configured to break at the predetermined breaking point (140) after a predetermined amount of deformation.

Abstract
The invention relates to a support element (105) for a wiper drive (100), comprising a receiving portion (130) for attaching the wiper drive (100), a bearing point (135) for fixing the support element (105) to a surrounding structure (110), and a predetermined breaking point (140). A specified gap (150) lies between the support element (105) and the surrounding structure (110) at a contact portion (142) of the support element (105), the width of said gap being dependent on a force that acts on the support element (105) such that the contact portion (142) comes into contact with the surrounding structure (110) only when a specified force acting on the support element (105) is exceeded.
