End-piece intended to be mounted on a flexible support and wiper including the end-piece and the flexible support

1. An end-piece for a motor vehicle glass wiper, comprising:

a housing adapted to receive an end portion of a flexible support, the housing comprising a first longitudinal wall extending in a direction parallel to the flexible support;

a first lateral wall protruding from the first longitudinal wall;

a second longitudinal wall protruding from the first longitudinal wall; and

a locking means for locking the end portion of the flexible support in an engaged position inside the housing, the locking means comprising at least one tongue,

wherein the locking means comprises at least one cavity that is delimited by:

the first longitudinal wall,

the first lateral wall,

a second lateral wall, and

the at least one tongue,

wherein the at least one cavity is in a receptacle containing gluing means placed inside the cavity to immobilize the at least one tongue in the locking position.

2. The end-piece according to claim 1 , wherein the tongue is pivotally mounted on the first lateral wall.

3. The end-piece according to claim 1 , wherein the cavity is delimited by at least one end wall of the end-piece.

4. The end-piece according to claim 1 , wherein the cavity comprises a cavity opening in line with an opening through the end-piece.

5. The end-piece according to claim 1 , wherein the tongue and the end-piece both extend along a first axis.

6. The end-piece according to claim 5 , wherein the first lateral wall and the second lateral wall extend along a second axis that is orthogonal to the first axis along which the end-piece extends longitudinally.

7. The end-piece according to claim 6 , wherein the tongue includes an abutment whereby the tongue contacts the second lateral wall.

8. The end-piece according to claim 7 , wherein the abutment is a ramp on which the tongue slides against the second lateral wall.

9. The end-piece according to claim 8 , wherein the abutment extends along the second axis.

10. The end-piece according to claim 6 , wherein the tongue is equipped with a nipple that extends along the second axis and is located at a proximal end of the tongue.

11. The end-piece according to claim 5 , wherein the cavity has a first length measured along the first axis between the first lateral wall and the second lateral wall that is equal to a first distance measured along the first axis between a proximal end and a distal end of the tongue.

12. A wiper comprising:

at least one end-piece according to claim 11 , wherein

said flexible support is adapted to be inserted into an entry mouth of the end-piece, the flexible support including at least one notch in a longitudinal edge of the flexible support.

13. The wiper according to claim 12 , wherein the notch has a third length that is equal to the first length and to the first distance.

14. The wiper according to claim 12 , wherein the notch is adapted to receive at least part of a heel of an abutment of the tongue.

15. A wiper system including a wiper according to claim 12 .

16. The end-piece according to claim 5 , wherein the tongue is extended by a finger that extends along the first axis and is connected to the tongue via a proximal end.

17. A method of assembling a wiper, comprising:

a step of inserting a flexible support into an end-piece by sliding longitudinal edges of the flexible support between fingers of the end-piece until a heel of at least one tongue is at least partly accommodated inside at least one notch on an edge of the flexible support,

a step of depositing gluing means at least inside a cavity delimited at least by the tongue to immobilize the tongue in contact against a second lateral wall delimiting the cavity.

18. The method according to claim 17 , wherein the step of depositing the gluing means includes depositing the gluing means inside the cavity and inside a housing between the tongue and the flexible support including at least the notch.
