Abstract:
The present invention relates to a windscreen wiping device (100) for a vehicle, comprising a wiper blade (2) with an elongate upper part (10) and an elongate lower part (12), which are configured to be at least partially bendable. Furthermore, a plurality of connecting elements (18) for connecting the upper part (10) and the lower part (12) are provided, said connecting elements being spaced apart from one another along a longitudinal extent (8) of the wiper blade (2) and being designed to permit a movement of the upper part (10) and of the lower part relative to each other with a movement component along a longitudinal extent (8) of the wiper blade (2). Furthermore, a multiplicity of the plurality of connecting elements (18) are connected to the upper part (10) via a first film hinge in each case and to the lower part (12) via a second film hinge in each case. Furthermore, a film-hinge stop device is provided in order to limit a rotational movement of the connecting elements (18) relative to at least one part from the elongate upper part and the elongate lower part.
