Amawipha ezimoto - Bosch noValeo nabanye. Imaphi ama-wiper blades ongawakhetha?

Kunezinhlobo eziningana zokuhlanza ingilazi emakethe:

• uphaphe (uhlaka lwamathambo);
• ingxubevange;
• flat (okungenasici).

Yikuphi okungcono ukukhetha? Okokuqala, ake siqale ngomlando walokhu okusunguliwe.

Ubani Owasungula Amawipha Ezimoto?

I-windshield wiper patent yabanjwa isikhathi nguMary Anderson, owazalwa ngo-1866. Ukushayela ngezinsuku zakhe kwakungelula. Abashayeli kudingeke ukuthi bancike ekhumbini ukuze babone ukuthi kwenzekani phambi kwabo. Ngakho, ukusungulwa kowesifazane waseMelika kwaba impendulo esebenzayo enkingeni yabo. Kodwa-ke, akugcini lapho, ngoba ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, ama-wiper kagesi nawo asungulwa. Owesifazane uCharlotte Bridgewood naye unesibopho sokudalwa kwabo. Futhi nakuba sekudlule isikhathi esiningi kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, ukuma kwazo nendlela ezihamba ngayo akukashintshi ngokuphawulekayo.

Ama-Wiper blades, noma okuncane mayelana nohlobo lwawo oludala kakhulu

Lolu wuhlobo lokuqala (futhi olusasetshenziswa kabanzi njengamanje) lwamawipha emoto. Lo mklamo usekelwe kumabhulashi ashintshwayo acindezelwa engilazini nge-wiper lever. Ukuthandwa kwalesi sixazululo ngokuyinhloko kungenxa yezizathu zezomnotho. Kungenzeka ukushintsha izibambo ngokwazo, njengoba sesishilo kakade. Ngeshwa, lawa ma-wiper awasebenzi njengezinhlobo zesimanje. Kungani? Iphrofayili yefreyimu ayivumeli ukuthi irabha icindezeleke ngokulinganayo engilazini, ngakho-ke i-blade ivame ukugxuma. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-aerodynamics yabo ishiya okuningi okungafunwa.

Izisusi zewindi lozimele kanye nezici zazo

Yini enye ebonisa isisombululo sokuqala sokuhlanza ingilazi? Izakhi zamathambo aziqinile ikakhulukazi. Amawipha anjalo ezimoto kuzodingeka ashintshwe ngisho njalo ngemva kwezinyanga eziyisithupha ukuze kuqinisekiswe izinga elifanele lokugeleza kwamanzi. Nokho, le nqubo ngeke ikubize imali nhlobo. Abashayeli bathanda ama-wiper blades ngoba awabizi futhi kulula ukuwafaka.

Amawipha emoto angenawo uzimele

Isixazululo esisha esisuse izinto eziningi ezimbi zezixazululo ze-paddle amawipha ayisicaba (angenahlaka). Njengoba igama labo lisho, abanalo ifreyimu eyengeziwe, futhi isibambo sinenduku yokucindezela ekhethekile. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kufanele futhi uhlole izinto ezenziwe ngalo umbhoxo (irabha). Isebenza kangcono kunamarabha endabuko adingekayo ukwenza amamodeli ezinsiba. Ama-wiper emoto angenawo uhlaka anezinye izinzuzo eziningi.

Yini enye ebonisa amamodeli flat?

Ukuncishwa kwalawa mamodeli ohlaka lwensimbi kusho ukuthi anezingxenye ezimbalwa ezizwela ukugqwala. Futhi ukugqwala okunomthelela omubi kakhulu emsebenzini wabaqaphi kanye nokucatshangelwa kobuhle. Ngaphezu kwalokho, umklamo ongenafreyimu unikeza iphrofayili ye-blade ephansi kanye ne-aerodynamics engcono. Lokhu kuvumela uhlelo lokudonsa amanzi ukuthi lusebenze ngokuphumelelayo ngesivinini esiphezulu. Ngeshwa, lezi zinto ngokuvamile zibiza ngaphezulu, ozozithola ngokushintshwa kwazo zonke.

Ama-wiper ama-Hybrid, noma indlela yokuyekethisa

Ngo-2005, inkampani yaseJapane iDenso yakhipha ama-wiper emoto ayi-hybrid. Ekuqaleni, lo mkhiqizo wamukelwa kuphela ukukhathazeka kwendawo ukuze uyisebenzisele umhlangano wokuqala. Nokho, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, isimo siye sashintsha. Namuhla, ama-brand amaningi akhetha amamodeli ayi-hybrid. Kungani? Izici zabo:

• umzimba omncane;
• kulula ukuyibeka;
• ukusebenziseka kalula;
• ukusebenza kahle kokukhipha amanzi. 

Kepha akupheleli lapho.

Yini ehlukanisa ama-wiper ayi-hybrid?

Umugqa wama-wiper uvaliwe futhi ufana namamodeli angenafreyimu. Kulula kakhulu ukuhlanganisa ngoba izindlela zokuwakhweza esandleni zinqunyelwe. Umnyombo osetshenziswa emikhiqizweni enjalo unomthelela ekusabalaliseni okufanayo kwamandla kulo lonke ubude be-blade. Ama-hybrid, nakuba engencane njengamamodeli ayisicaba, awashaqisi kakhulu.

Abakhiqizi bamawipha ezimoto. Yimuphi umkhiqizo ongawukhetha?

Izitolo eziku-inthanethi nezitolo ezimile zinikeza inhlobonhlobo yemikhiqizo. Okuningi kuncike emotweni oyishayelayo. Izisusi zezimoto ezingenasici zemikhiqizo edumile (kuhlanganise ne-Bosch ne-Valeo) azishibhile kangako. Ngokuvamile kuzodingeka ukhokhe ngaphezu kwama-euro angu-10 ucezu ngalunye. Ngakho-ke, ngemoto endala yabagibeli, umkhiqizo onjalo awunanzuzo. Inketho yesibili eyedlulele nayo ayikhuthazi, ngoba ama-wiper ozimele ashibhile aguga ngokushesha okukhulu. Kuzodingeka uwashintshe ufake ezintsha ngemva kwezinyanga ezimbalwa zokusetshenziswa kanzima. Angase aguge noma alimale. Kuyoba ngcono uma uqhathanisa zonke izici zemikhiqizo bese ulandela iziphakamiso, izivivinyo nemibono.

Ungakhetha kanjani ubukhulu be-wiper blades?

Uma ufuna ukuthenga amawipha ezimoto amasha esitolo, khumbula ukuthi ngeke uqiniseke ngendawo efanele. Ngokuvamile nabo ngeke uthole "usayizi" ofanele, futhi lokhu kunzima kakhulu ekwenzeni izinqumo. Enye yezinketho ezinhle kakhulu ukusebenzisa isitolo esisebenza ngezingxenye zezimoto. Izitolo ezinjalo zihlinzeka ngamakhathalogi akhethekile azisa umthengisi nomthengi mayelana nobude obuqondile bama-blades afakwe kulo modeli. Ngenxa yalokhu, uzogwema ukuthenga okuyimpumputhe.

Uyazi ukuthi ungakhetha kanjani ama-wiper emoto yakho, kodwa uwasebenzisa kanjani? Ngaphambi kokuwagijima, kungcono ukususa ukungcola, uthuli namaqabunga kuwo. Zinakekele ikakhulukazi ebusika. Ungakwazi ukususa iqhwa neqhwa ngebhulashi ne-scraper. Khona-ke ama-wipers emoto azosebenza isikhathi eside futhi anikeze ukubonakala emgwaqeni nokuphepha kokushayela ngisho nasezimweni ezinzima zezulu.
