DUAL MOTOR WIPER SYSTEM

DUAL MOTOR WIPER SYSTEM

Paper in proceedings (conference paper)

This paper deals with dual synchronized motor wiper system. Usually wipers are using single DC motor drive with mechanical coupling. This rigid mechanism is required to eliminate due to space and weight lack This space can be used for the dash-board and thus enlarge the cabin space. Modern car vehicles are equipped by large windshields, due to increase of safety and also new trends are taking place on. To ensure appropriate visibility in worse weather conditions, the larger wiped area is required. Increasing wiped surface also increases the wiping power, increase of wiper blades length mean higher wiping torque. Using multimotor wiper system divides the torque into separated torques from each wiper; this helps to reduce the motor dimensions and removes the mechanical coupling.
