Abstract: The invention relates to an adapter for a wiper blade mount, the adapter comprising a cover configured to accommodate, inside a central opening, a removable attachment system which allows subsequent temporary fastening of said adapter to an articulated wiper blade arm, when said adapter is implemented on a wiper blade. To this end, the removable attachment system comprises one or more mounting members which take the form of U-clips configured to be removably inserted in the central opening and held in this configuration by means of temporary fastening means. The invention also relates to a wiper blade comprising such an adapter mounted on a wiper blade mount.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adapter for a wiper blade mounting, the adapter comprising a cover which can be releasably attached to a main bar of the mounting by a single rotational movement that allows form-closure engagement between the cover and the main bar. According to the invention, the cover comprises an angular indexing system for defining an axis of rotation of the cover, the angular indexing system cooperating with an opening in the main bar. The opening and the angular indexing system have an asymmetrical form in order to allow angular indexing of the cover relative to the main bar and, subsequently, mechanical coupling of the cover on the main bar. The invention is applicable to motor vehicles.
