The wiper arm is configured to wipe the window surface by reciprocatingly swinging in conjunction with the reciprocating rotation of the pivot shaft in the direction around the axis based on the driving of the wiper motor. In such a wiper device, In the case where a garnish (decorative board) is attached to the outside of the body outer plate, the pivot shaft protrudes to the outside through each through hole formed in the body outer plate and the garnish. Incidentally, a cap is provided between the pivot shaft and each through-hole to prevent foreign matter such as water or dust from entering. As shown in FIG. The cap 10 for the hole and the cap 11 for the garnish through-hole were separately provided.

The present invention is directed to through holes formed in an inner panel and an outer panel, respectively. In a wiper device having a wiper arm attached to a tip end of a pivot shaft having a through hole, an inner cap portion for closing a gap between the through hole of the inner panel and the pivot shaft, and a wiper device between the through hole of the outer panel and the pivot shaft. And an outer cap portion for closing the shaft is integrally formed via a cylindrical connecting portion through which the pivot shaft passes. By doing so, the number of components can be reduced as compared with the conventional case where the inner panel cap and the outer panel cap are separately provided, and the assembling operation is simplified. In this device, the outer cap portion has elasticity that can be inserted into the through hole of the outer panel from the inner panel side, and the hem portion can be widened to cover the through hole in a state where the outer panel through hole is penetrated. By having the lip portion spreading in the skirt shape, the outer cap portion can be easily attached to the outer panel through hole. In addition, by providing the cylindrical connecting portion with play in the axial direction, even if there is some variation in the distance between the inner panel and the outer panel, the cap portion is positioned with respect to the through hole. The displacement can be avoided. In addition, this can be adopted in a case where the inner panel is a body outer plate and the outer panel is a garnish attached to the body outer plate.

し下側に引っ張られるように設定されている。The cap 6 is attached to the garnish 3 while the cap 6 is attached to the pivot shaft 1 and the through hole 2a of the outer plate 2.
In this case, the outer lip portion 8b and the cylindrical portion 8a of the outer cap portion 8 have outer diameters smaller than the inner diameter of the through hole 3a of the garnish 3 as described above. Is also set small so that it passes through the through-hole 3a without any hindrance. However, the lower lip portion 8c has a hem portion 8d which spreads in a hem-spreading state with the garnish 3 assembled to the body outer plate 2. Is through hole 3
It is in a state of being locked to the inner peripheral portion of the hole a (see FIG. 3A). From this state, the outer cap portion 8 is connected to the pivot shaft 1.
When the skirt portion 8d is guided by the inner peripheral portion of the through hole 3a, the skirt portion 8d is narrowed by elastic deformation and passes through the through hole 3a. The folded portion 9a extends upward so as to reduce the folded amount, and allows the outer cap portion 8 to move toward the distal end side (see FIG. 3B). After the skirt portion 8d of the lower lip portion 8c passes through the through-hole 3a, the outer cap portion 8 is shifted downward so that the skirt portion 8d abuts on the peripheral edge of the through-hole 3a in a sealed manner from the outside. Thus, the through hole 3a is covered (see FIG. 1). here,
The folded portion 9a of the tubular connecting portion 9 is provided with the lower lip 8
When c is in a state of covering the through hole 3a, it is set to be in a natural state or to be slightly pulled downward.

The cap 6 penetrates through the hole 3a and protrudes to the outside. The cap 6 for closing the space between the pivot shaft 1 and the through holes 2a and 3a to prevent foreign matter such as water and dust from entering is provided on the body outer plate 2 An inner cap portion 7 for closing the through hole 2a and an outer cap portion 8 for closing the through hole 3 of the garnish 3 are integrally formed via a cylindrical connecting portion 9. As a result, the number of parts can be reduced as compared with the conventional case where a separate cap is provided corresponding to each through hole, and
Assembly work is also easy.

In this case, the outer cap portion 8 is larger than the through hole 3a. As described above, the lower lip portion 8c set to have a large diameter has a skirt portion 8d.
Passes through the through-hole 3a due to elastic deformation and narrowing,
Then, after passing through the through hole 3a, the skirt portion 8d expands to cover the through hole 3a from outside. Thus, the attachment of the outer cap portion 8 to the garnish through-hole 3a can be performed by a simple operation of moving the lower lip portion 8c in the axial direction with respect to the pivot shaft 1, thereby improving workability. .

In this structure, the lower lip portion 8c can easily pass through the through hole, and the distance between the body outer plate 2 and the garnish 3 has some variation. However, it is possible to prevent the lower lip portion 8c from being displaced with respect to the garnish through hole 3a. After the lower lip portion 8c passes through the through hole 3a and the skirt portion 8d spreads, the wiper arm 4 is attached to the pivot shaft 1 protruding from the tip of the cap 6, but the upper lip portion 8b is Since the pivot shaft mounting concave portion 5a is elastically in close contact with the pivot shaft mounting concave portion 5a, it is possible to prevent foreign matter from entering from this portion,
A cap structure having a double sealing function in combination with the sealing function of the lower lip portion 8c can be provided.
