Multi-channel cleaning device, multi-channel sensor cleaning module, vehicle

A multi-channel sensor cleaning module comprising:

• a module housing;
• a multi-channel cleaning device for providing at least one of a liquid flow and a compressed air flow for a number of cleaning jets;
• said multi-channel cleaning device including a module compressed air connection configured to receive compressed air and a module liquid connection configured to receive a cleaning liquid;
• said multi-channel cleaning device further including at least two nozzle branches including a first nozzle branch configured to supply at least one cleaning nozzle independently of another of said at least two nozzle branches, wherein each of said at least two nozzle branches has:
• a pump configured to deliver cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid provided at said module liquid connection as a function of a pump control signal and to provide the delivered cleaning liquid in a form of a liquid flow at a liquid nozzle line of said nozzle branch;
• and,
• a branch valve configured to pneumatically connect the module compressed air connection to a compressed air nozzle line of said nozzle branch as a function of a valve control signal for providing a compressed air flow at said compressed air nozzle line in a de-aerating position.

A vehicle comprising:

• at least one of a multi-channel cleaning device and a multi-channel sensor cleaning module, wherein said multi-channel sensor cleaning module includes a module housing and said multi-channel cleaning device;
• said multi-channel cleaning device including a module compressed air connection configured to receive compressed air and a module liquid connection configured to receive a cleaning liquid;
• said multi-channel cleaning device further including at least two nozzle branches including a first nozzle branch configured to supply at least one cleaning nozzle independently of another of said at least two nozzle branches, wherein each of said at least two nozzle branches has:
• a pump configured to deliver cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid provided at said module liquid connection as a function of a pump control signal and to provide the delivered cleaning liquid in a form of a liquid flow at a liquid nozzle line of said nozzle branch;
• and,
• a branch valve configured to pneumatically connect the module compressed air connection to a compressed air nozzle line of said nozzle branch as a function of a valve control signal for providing a compressed air flow at said compressed air nozzle line in a de-aerating position.
