Bracket and modular assembly for fluid spray system

A modular assembly for a fluid spray system of a vehicle, comprising:

• a combination bracket comprising a sensor socket adapted to retainably receive a sensor to mount the sensor thereto, a nozzle socket adjacent to the sensor socket, and a retention point connectable to a support member of a vehicle;
• a spray nozzle removably coupled with the combination bracket and retained within the nozzle socket, the spray nozzle comprising a spray tube, a nozzle inlet at a first end of the spray tube, and a nozzle outlet at an opposite second end of the spray tube, wherein the spray nozzle is adapted to produce a spray of fluid that issues from the nozzle outlet onto the sensor mounted in the sensor socket;
• and
• a check valve integrated with the spray nozzle and connectable to a fluid conduit and adapted to deliver fluid from the fluid conduit to the nozzle inlet of the spray nozzle, the check valve comprising:
• a valve housing formed by a portion of the spray tube comprising the nozzle inlet;
• and
• a single-piece valve body having a first end comprising a valve inlet and a second end comprising a valve outlet;
• wherein the single-piece valve body is mounted to the valve housing and the second end of the valve body comprising the valve outlet projects into the portion of the spray tube comprising the nozzle inlet;
• and
• wherein the nozzle socket comprises a through hole for insertion of the spray tube therein and the single-piece valve body engages the nozzle socket to retain the spray nozzle and the check valve in a mounted position on the combination bracket, wherein in the mounted position the nozzle outlet is distal of the through hole and exposed outside the combination bracket and the valve inlet is proximal of the through hole and exposed outside the combination bracket.
