Abstract

A windshield wiper blade device is constructed and formed to be releasably secured in a fitted engagement upon an existing wiper arm and blade assembly to provide an effective wiping blade that is easily installed and replaceable in an integral form. The present device comprises a wiper jacket constructed in an envelope-like form partially sealed along its top edge and open but sealable along the remainder of the edge to allow the insertion of an existing wiper blade assembly within the walls of the jacket. A bladed edge having a multi-channel configuration is provided externally along the bottom of the jacket while the interior length of its chamber is formed to provide an angled nesting area for the foot of the wiper blade assembly inserted within the jacket. The chamber walls of the wiper jacket are lined with a resilient foam material on opposite sides to engage the existing blade assembly transversely and secure its position within the wiper jacket. The open top edge of the wiper jacket is provided with fastening material on opposed surfaces and a plurality of releasable straps to selectively close the open edge in a sealed engagement.
