Abstract

A motor vehicle wiper has a wiper arm with a wiper blade and is in operative connection with a wiper shaft. The wiper arm is fastened on a bearing part that is movably supported on the wiper shaft.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A motor vehicle window wiper, comprising:
a wiper shaft;
a wiper arm configured for a wiper blade;
a bearing part mounted movably on the wiper shaft in both an operating position of the motor vehicle window wiper and a changing position of the motor vehicle window wiper, wherein the changing position permits changing of the wiper blade and wherein the wiper arm is fastened to the bearing part;
a locking device, wherein an entirety of the locking device is disposed within a sleeve of the bearing part in both the operating position and the changing position; and
a prestressing device which is operatively connected to the bearing part, wherein the prestressing device is in a relieved state in the operating position and is compressed in the changing position.

2. The motor vehicle window wiper according to claim 1 , wherein
the bearing part is mounted on the wiper shaft so as to be displaceable axially between the operating position of the motor vehicle window wiper and the changing position, and
the bearing part is mounted on the wiper shaft so as to be fixed radially in the operating position and movable radially in order to assume the changing position.

3. The motor vehicle window wiper according to claim 1 , wherein
the sleeve partially surrounds the wiper shaft both in the operating position and the changing position.

4. The motor vehicle window wiper according to claim 1 , wherein
the locking device is operatively connected at least in sections to the sleeve in a positively locking manner.

5. The motor vehicle window wiper according to claim 1 , wherein
the locking device has a profile which is configured transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the wiper shaft, wherein the locking device is disposable in a first receiving section and a second receiving section of the sleeve such that the locking device and the first receiving section are axially displaceable with respect to one another but cannot be rotated with respect to one another and such that the locking device and the second receiving section are axially displaceable with respect to one another but cannot be rotated with respect to one another and wherein the locking device is disposable in a third receiving section of the sleeve which is situated between the first and second receiving sections such that the locking device and the third receiving section are axially displaceable with respect to one another and are rotatable with respect to one another.

6. The motor vehicle window wiper according to claim 1 , wherein
the wiper blade is received at least partially in a receptacle of the bearing part.

7. A motor vehicle, comprising:
at least one motor vehicle window;
a motor vehicle window wiper according to claim 1 ; and
a drive operatively connected to the wiper shaft of the motor vehicle window wiper.
