The present invention relates to a fluid level sensor-attached motor pump for a washer fluid, in which a fluid level sensor for detecting the remaining amount of a washer fluid stored in a washer fluid reservoir and outputting a detection signal is integrally mounted to a motor pump for a washer fluid so that an operator can check the remaining amount of the washer fluid through a dashboard of a vehicle and thus can replenish an insufficient washer fluid, in which the fluid level sensor is integrally mounted to the motor pump for a washer fluid to solve a problem in that the motor pump and the fluid level sensor are separately wiring-connected to the washer fluid reservoir to thereby deteriorate workability of wiring so that workability of wiring can be increased and the wiring can be simplified to reduce a defective proportion, in which the motor pump for a washer fluid and the fluid level sensor are integrally manufactured so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced, and in which the fluid level sensor for detecting the remaining amount of a washer fluid and outputting a detection signal is manufactured by selecting any one of a combination of a magnet and a Hall sensor, a combination of a magnet and a reed switch, and a combination of a Hall sensor and a buoyancy device mounted with a magnet so that the improvement in performance can be achieved through the use of a magnetic Hall sensor having reliability.

A vehicle includes a vehicle frame and an optical device mounted on the vehicle frame. A first temperature sensor senses ambient air temperature surrounding the vehicle frame, a second temperature sensor senses a temperature of a lens of the optical device, and a humidity sensor senses moisture content of air proximal to the lens. An exhaust directs gas at the lens in response to the sensed ambient air temperature, the sensed lens temperature, and the sensed moisture content.

An air passage and two lines of cleaning liquid paths are provided in a nozzle, and the air passage is bifurcated into two lines of distal end portions. Then, a distal end portion of the cleaning liquid path and the distal end portion of the air passage are merged. Thus, if the compressed air is supplied to the air passage, the resulting air flow causes a negative pressure on the downstream side. This enables making a cleaning liquid into the form of a mist and suctioning it, and to mix the cleaning liquid in the form of a mist with the compressed air, whereby it is possible to clean the lens surface and to reduce the amount of the cleaning liquid used.

A heated windshield wiper system includes a vehicle has a wiper motor and a windshield. The wiper motor is electrically coupled to the vehicle. A pair of windshield wipers is provided and each of the windshield wipers is movably coupled to the vehicle. Each of the windshield wipers is operationally coupled to the wiper motor. The wiper motor selectively urges each of the windshield wipers across the windshield. Thus, each of the windshield wipers may clear the windshield. A heating unit is coupled to each of the windshield wipers. The heating unit is electrically coupled to the wiper motor. The heating unit selectively heats each of the windshield wipers. Thus, each of the windshield wipers may melt snow and ice from the windshield.
