Wiper connector apparatus having enhanced assembly
A wiper connector apparatus includes a first connector member at a side of a vertebra; a second connector member that is disposed at an opposite side of the first connector member with the vertebra therebetween, wherein a first hooking unit is formed on an inner surface of the first connector member, to extend and slope against a direction of a length of the vertebra; a second hooking unit is formed on an inner surface of the second connector member in a parallel direction to the first hooking unit and not overlapping with the first hooking unit; and a coupling plate that slides into and is coupled to the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit to bind the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit so that the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit are not detached from each other.
1. A wiper connector apparatus, having enhanced assembly, which connects a wiper blade to a wiper arm, the wiper connector apparatus comprising:
a first connector member that is disposed at a center of the wiper blade, and at a side of a vertebra, which elastically supports a wiper lip that forms the wiper blade;
a second connector member that is disposed at an opposite side of the first connector member having the vertebra therebetween, and that supports the vertebra, together with the second connector member in the form of a sandwich,
wherein a first hooking unit is formed in the form of a rail on an inner surface of the first connector member, to extend and intersect a direction of a length of the vertebra;
a second hooking unit is formed on an inner surface of the second connector member in a parallel direction to the first hooking unit and not interfering with the first hooking unit; and
a coupling plate slides into and is coupled to the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit to bind the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit so that the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit are not detached from each other,
wherein the coupling plate slides into and is coupled to the first hooking unit and the second hooking unit in a direction toward a top surface of the vertebra,
wherein a plurality of the first hooking units and the second hooking units are comprised and alternately disposed along a direction of a length of the vertebra.
2. The wiper connector apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first hooking unit extends in a direction that is perpendicular to an upper surface of the vertebra.
3. The wiper connector apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the coupling plate comprises a dislocation-preventing hook that is elastically caught in a groove which is formed in an inner wall of the first connector member or the second connector member to thus prevent the coupling plate from being dislocated from the groove in a direction of a length of the first hooking unit or the second hooking unit.
