    Wiper Systems: Technical Specifications

    Uploaded by

    ali wardana
    The document provides technical specifications for a 12V and 14V windscreen wiper model. The wiper system uses an electric motor with an integral gearbox to convert rotational motion to reciprocating motion to drive the wiper arms. It is available in single or two speed options with varying output torques, current consumption, wiping speeds, angles of wipe, and operating temperature ranges. Routine servicing is not required for the motor or gearbox, but wiper arms and blades require periodic replacement.

    WIPER SYSTEMS

    TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
    12V and 14V Windscreen wiper - Model 14W

    1. Application
    Model 14W rack-operated windscreen wiper is intended for use on cars and light
    commercial vehicles having fixed windscreens.
    By employing different armature winding specifications, three categories of power output
    are produced as stated in para. 2.2. Each power output is available in single or two speed
    form. The two-speed motor incorporates a third brush, to which the positive supply is
    switched when the second (higher) speed is required.

    Screen wiping angles ranging from 56 ° to 130 ° are available. In general, as arm and/or
    blade length is increased, so some corresponding reduction in the angle of wipe becomes
    necessary.

    The power unit required to drive any specific installation will depend upon the size, shape
    and profile of the screen area to be wiped, blade loading etc.

    2. Description
    The power unit is a permanent-magnet field electric motor with integral gearbox.
    A single-stage worm reduction gear is employed and the rotation of the output gearwheel
    is converted to reciprocating motion being transmitted to two wheelboxes (and hence the
    wiper arms) through a flexible wire rack running in suitably formed rigid tubing. The
    amplitude of the reciprocating motion is determined by the radial positioning of a crankpin
    carried on the gearwheel.

    Associated with the terminal assembly is a self-switching arrangement. Two-stage contacts


    inside the switch are operated by a plunger, which in turn is actuated by a cam on the
    underside of the gearwheel inside the gearbox. When the manually operated control is
    Page 1 of 2
    switched off, the motor continues to operate under the automatic control of the cam-
    operated switch. As the wiper blades approach the parked position the first-stage contacts
    open and the motor is switched off. A momentary period follows during which no contact is
    made by the switch, then the second-stage contacts close, causing regenerative braking of
    the armature to maintain consistent parking of the blades.

    2.1 Polarity:
    Suitable for either positive or negative earth, subject to correct wiring connections

    2.2 Output Torque (according to armature winding specification):


    1500 ozf in
    1100 ozf in
    900 ozf in

    2.3 Current Consumption:


    1500 ozf in motor 1.5 to 3.5A
    1100 ozf in and 900 ozf in motors 1.5 to 2.5A

    2.4 Nominal Wiping Speeds


    Single speed: 45 cycles per min.
    Two speed: 45 & 70 cycles per min.
    Minimum speed differential: 15 cycles per min.

    2.5 Wheelboxes:
    The wheelbox houses a gearwheel driven by the flexible rack. Integral with the gearwheel is
    the shaft to which the wiper arm is fitted. Wheelboxes are available designated either 2WB
    (with a 32-tooth gearwheel) or 3WB (40-tooth gearwheel). The latter is recommended
    when longer arms and/or blades are to be employed with a reduced angle of wipe.

    2.6 Angles of Wipe:


    70° to 130° in increments of 5° when used with 2WB

    2.7 Operating Temperature Range:


    Will operate over an ambient temperature range of -30°C to 93°C. The wiper will function
    normally at temperatures down to -18°C. Between this temperature and -30°C, speeds may
    be temporarily reduced due to the high viscosity of the screenwiper lubricants

    2.8 Routine Servicing:


    Routine servicing is not required on the motor, gearbox assembly or transmission. Wiper
    arms require periodic replacement with blades being renewed at least once every twelve
    months
