Abstract
The invention relates to a cleaning device intended for spraying at least one fluid onto a surface to be cleaned of a motor vehicle, such as an optical sensor of an optical detection system, which comprises at least one conveyor body (8) inside of which a distribution duct (11) is arranged and which includes, at the terminal distribution portion (36) thereof, a fluid distribution element (9) in which at least one cleaning fluid spray nozzle (10) is formed, the distribution element (9) including a distribution channel (12) in fluid connection with the distribution duct (11) arranged in the conveyor body (8) and with the spray nozzle (10). According to the invention, the cleaning fluid distribution element (9) is made up of two portions (16, 17): a first portion (16) including a base (16a) of the distribution element (9) attached to the conveyor body (8) and a second portion (17) including a cover (17a) urged against the first portion (16).
