Wiper blade

Abstract

A wiper blade includes a first blade and a second blade surrounding the first blade, such that the first blade is not exposed for use, wherein the removal of the second blade exposes the first blade for use. In another embodiment, a wiper blade includes a body, an inner blade attached to the body, an outer blade bonded to the body or inner blade, a gripping mechanism attached to the outer blade and a removal mechanism located between the inner blade and outer blade, wherein the removal mechanism is attached to the gripping mechanism.

1 . A wiper blade comprising:
 a first wiper blade; and   a second wiper blade surrounding the first wiper blade, such that the first wiper blade is not exposed for use, wherein the removal of the second wiper blade exposes the first wiper blade for use.   
     
     
         2 . The wiper blade of  claim 1  further comprising a base to which the first wiper blade is attached. 
     
     
         3 . The wiper blade of  claim 2  wherein the second wiper blade is attached to the base. 
     
     
         4 . The wiper blade of  claim 1  wherein the second wiper blade is attached to the wiper blade. 
     
     
         5 . The wiper blade of  claim 1  further comprising a gripping mechanism attached to the second wiper blade. 
     
     
         6 . The wiper blade of  claim 5  wherein the gripping mechanism is a tab. 
     
     
         7 . The wiper blade of  claim 5  further comprising a removal mechanism attached to the gripping mechanism. 
     
     
         8 . The wiper blade of  claim 7  wherein the removal mechanism is a wire. 
     
     
         9 . The wiper blade of  claim 1  further comprising a third wiper blade surrounding the second wiper blade, such that the second wiper blade is not exposed for use, wherein the removal of the third wiper blade exposes the second wiper blade for use. 
     
     
         10 . A wiper blade comprising:
 a first wiper blade; and   a plurality of additional wiper blade, wherein each of the additional wiper blade is located adjacent to the first wiper blade or one of the plurality of additional wiper blade, wherein each additional wiper blade protects the adjacent wiper blade from exposure to the elements and wherein the removal of each additional wiper blade exposes the adjacent wiper blade for use.   
     
     
         11 . The wiper blade of  claim 10  further comprising a gripping mechanism associated with each of the additional wiper blade. 
     
     
         12 . The wiper blade of  claim 11  wherein the gripping mechanism associated with each of the additional wiper blade is a tab. 
     
     
         13 . The wiper blade of  claim 10  further comprising a removal mechanism associated with each of the additional wiper blade. 
     
     
         14 . The wiper blade of  claim 13  wherein the removal mechanism associated with each of the additional wiper blade is a wire. 
     
     
         15 .- 20 . (canceled) 
     
     
         21 . The wiper blade of  claim 1  wherein the first wiper blade and the second wiper blade are made of rubber. 
     
     
         22 . The wiper blade of  claim 10  wherein the first wiper blade and each of the additional wiper blades are made of rubber.
