To provide a vehicle camera unit with a cleaning function which prevents wind from blowing onto cleaning fluid jetted from nozzles even if the wind (for example, travel wind) blows around a lens.SOLUTION: A vehicle camera unit with a cleaning function includes: a camera 30 having a lens 32 which can capture images of a subject located around a vehicle and is located at an outer side of the vehicle; a bracket 25 supporting the camera and fixed to the vehicle; windbreak walls 35, 36 which can move between a storage position where the windbreak walls are located at an interior of the bracket and a protruding position where the windbreak walls protrude from the bracket to an outer side; nozzles 35d, each of which is provided at the windbreak wall so as to face the lens when the windbreak wall is located at the protruding position and communicates with a cleaning fluid passage formed at an interior of the windbreak wall; and spring means which moves and biases the windbreak walls to the storage position side and allows the windbreak walls to be moved to the protruding positions by a pressure of the cleaning fluid when the cleaning fluid is supplied to the passage.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

    【課題】レンズの周囲を風(例えば、走行風)が吹いても、この風がノズルから噴射された洗浄液に及ぶことが防止される車両用洗浄機能付カメラユニットを提供する。【解決手段】車両の周囲に位置する被写体を撮像可能且つ車両の外側に位置するレンズ32を有するカメラ30と、カメラを支持し且つ車両に固定されるブラケット25と、ブラケットの内部に位置する格納位置と、ブラケットから外側に突出する突出位置と、の間を移動可能な防風壁35、36と、防風壁が突出位置に位置するときにレンズと対向するように防風壁に設けられ且つ防風壁の内部に形成された洗浄液用の流路と連通するノズル35dと、防風壁を格納位置側に移動付勢し、且つ、流路に対して洗浄液が供給されたときに洗浄液の圧力によって防風壁が突出位置に移動することを許容するバネ手段と、を備える。【選択図】図2
