This concealed wiper system comprises a wiper motor (1) having a mechanism to house the wiper arm in the retracted position by reversing rotation of the wiper motor; an oscillator (50) in which the oscillation frequency is varied by means of a variable resistor (59) installed within the automobile compartment; a wiper actuation switch (3) for wiper actuation selection; a wiper motor-position detector (2) for detecting wiper motor output shaft position; a wiper motor drive circuit (6) for driving the wiper motor; and an intermittent actuation control device employing a microcomputer (5). Intermittent actuation is selected by means of said wiper actuation switch (3), the intermittent pause period is based upon signals from said wiper motor-position detector (2) and signals from said means of oscillation (50), said wiper motor drive circuit (6) is controlled by the microcomputer (5).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a concealed wiper system having several functions necessitated for practical use, which is simply constructed and inexpensive to manufacture.
Another object of the invention is to provide a concealed wiper system wherein the vehicle operator can optionally determine an intermittent pause period, and wherein once the intermittent pause period have been determined, the determined values are maintained even when the power source is cut.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a concealed wiper system wherein the intermittent pause period can be automatically varied in accordance to vehicle speed and based upon the operator-determined intermittent pause period.
This invention has as an another object the provision of a concealed wiper system, wherein washing solution discharge is reliably interlocked with the wiper's wiping action.
This invention has as still another object the provision of a concealed wiper system, which can override the housing function by means of a simple switch operation.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a concealed wiper system wherein protection is particularly provided from wiper motor overload without requiring attachment of a circuit breaker to the wiper motor.
It is further object of the invention to provide a concealed wiper system wherein notification to the vehicle operator at time of overload of the wiper motor is simply realized.
Other and further object of this invention will become obvious upon an understanding of the illustrative embodiments about to be described or will be indicated in the appended claims, and various advantages not referred to herein will occur to one skilled in the art upon employment of the invention in practice.
