2009

From inspiration to action

That was a windy snowy day a man was on a taxi ride on his ways from Novokuznetsk to Kemerovo in the middle of Siberia. The ride was stressful and nasty as the drive had to go out from the car regulary to tap off the ice and sleet from the wiper blades. It helped only for a few minutes and the driver had to repeat the wiper cleaning time after time. All other cars were standing along the road doing the same. The visibility trough the windshield was awful and the ride took much longer time than planed. Following another routine the taxi driver commented «Why nobody yet came up with an idea of clog-free winter wipers».

The idea hit the man on the back seat of the taxi immediately «I know how to help professional and casual drivers».

The mans name was Vladimir Chekhov and one year later he invented the first Heated windshield wiper blade system.
