SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CLEANING THE SURFACE OF A SENSOR ON AN UNMANNED AUTOMOBILE Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B60W30/00 B60S1/52 B60S1/54 B60S1/60 B05B7/08 G03B17/02 

FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to a supply unit for a cleaning system, a cleaning system for cleaning the sensor system of an unmanned automobile, and a method for cleaning the surface of the sensor system. The supply unit has a liquid nozzle for supplying a liquid jet and directing the liquid jet to the surface of the sensor system, an air nozzle for supplying an air jet and directing the air jet to the surface of the sensor system, and a diverting hole for supplying another air jet in order to divert the liquid jet from the air nozzle. The liquid nozzle is located near the air nozzle. The air nozzle and the diverting hole are in fluid communication with a common air collector.

EFFECT: improved cleaning of the sensor system of an unmanned automobile.
