A vehicle cleaner system includes: a cleaner unit configured to be mounted on a vehicle and to discharge a cleaning liquid to an external sensor that acquires information outside the vehicle so as to clean the external sensor; and a cleaner control unit configured to control the cleaner unit. The cleaner control unit is configured to acquire vehicle speed information related to a traveling speed of the vehicle, and control the cleaner unit such that at least one of a discharge amount of the cleaning liquid, a discharge amount of the cleaning liquid per unit time, the number of times of discharge of the cleaning liquid, the number of times of discharge of the cleaning liquid per unit time, and a discharge time of the cleaning liquid varies according to the vehicle speed information.

An assembly for securing to a body part of a motor vehicle, a headlamp washer that is retractable through an opening made in this body part, the assembly having a support intended to receive the headlamp washer and a base, wherein one or the other of the base or the support comprises integrally produced connecting elements, these connecting elements being dimensioned such that they, alone, allow the body part to be sandwiched between the base and the support and allow this sandwiching to be maintained durably.

An interior cleaning system for a vehicle is disclosed. The system may include a display, and the display may include: a screen that includes a cover having a light-sensitive coating on an outwardly-facing side thereof; and a bezel having a lamp, wherein, when actuated, light from the lamp activates the coating.

A vehicular lamp cleaning system includes an isolation solenoid, an air reservoir and a discharge nozzle. The isolation solenoid is configured to be fluidly connected to the vehicular air tank of the vehicle. The air reservoir is configured to be fluidly connected to the isolation solenoid. The discharge nozzle is configured to be fluidly connected to the air reservoir. The discharge nozzle is also configured to (A) receive the pressurized air from the air reservoir, and (B) release and direct the pressurized air towards the exterior signal lamp of the vehicle. This is done in such a way that the pressurized air, which is released from the discharge nozzle, removes debris from the exterior signal lamp.

A vehicle lamp system includes: a vehicle lamp that emits light to a front area of a vehicle thereby forming a predetermined light distribution pattern; an imaging device that captures an image of the front area of the vehicle; and a foreign substance determination device including a storage unit that stores a light distribution pattern formed in the front area by the vehicle lamp in a state where no foreign substance adheres to a light emitting surface as a reference pattern, and a determination unit that compares a light distribution pattern captured by the imaging device with the reference pattern and determines whether a foreign substance adheres to the light emitting surface based on a determination result.

A vehicle light assembly is provided. The vehicle lighting assembly includes a housing, a light source, a lens disposed in front of the light source, a light sensor disposed outside the lens for sensing light intensity of light output from the lens, and a controller controlling the light source to adjust intensity of the light based on the sensed light intensity. The controller may also control a lens cleaner based on the sensed light intensity.

A light assembly for use in cold and/or inclement weather. The light assembly includes a lens having a hood wherein the hood is formed as a one piece formation with the lens. The hood and/or lens includes at least one aperture in communication with a supply of fluid. The supply of fluid being a windshield washing fluid (or similar) configured to melt and ice and/or snow on the lens of the light assembly.

An apparatus includes a sensor supported by a sensor arm, a fan mounted in a position that is fixed relative to the sensor, and a duct. The sensor includes a cylindrical window defining an axis. The duct is positioned to deliver air from the fan toward the cylindrical window. The duct has an opening extending along an arc of a circle centered on the axis.

A badge is provided herein. The badge includes a proximity sensor located on said badge providing an activation field. The badge further includes control circuitry configured to monitor a signal responsive to the activation field and determine a switch activation based on the signal. The control circuitry is further configured to determine a moisture value based upon the signal.

Disclosed is an improved vehicle reservoir system employing a single pump with a fluid distribution manifold or linear valve. The manifold is fluidly coupled to the pump, drawing fluid from the reservoir for distribution through multiple outlet ports. In the primary embodiment, a pump would pressurize a cavity of the manifold and fluid would be released through solenoid operated valves located on each outlet port.
