A wastewater spray distribution apparatus is operative to distribute wastewater produced by a sewage treatment system (10) onto a ground level (22) through operation of sprayers (118, 260). The exemplary sprayers include a manifold (142, 262) that includes outlet nozzles (158, 264) that can be readily removed and replaced. The exemplary manifold further includes interior areas bounded by surfaces that slope continuously downward from the outlet nozzles to the manifold inlet to assure the draining of water therefrom. Each of the nozzles include a base (140) which includes a liquid tight jacket (208). The jacket isolates components which facilitate movement of a rotatable hub (154), from water passing through the sprayer and other contaminants. A brake is provided in each nozzle and includes a liquid lubricant in the jacket that operates to limit rotational movement produced by the thrust of water passing from the outlet nozzles to assure that the sprayer operates at the appropriate rotational speed.

Provided is a coal-containing wastewater spraying device for dust suppression during coal conveying, including a motor, a gland, a body seat, and an accelerator. The body seat includes a funnel-shaped cover, a first disc and a plurality of crushing plates. The accelerator includes a circular second disc. The end of an output shaft of the motor passes through the first disc to connect with the second disc. The cover is provided with a water retaining ring between the first disc and the second disc along its axial direction. The cover, the first disc, the second disc and the water retaining ring form a water inlet space.

A rotating sprinkler for irrigation is disclosed. The sprinkler can include a stator spaced upstream from a turbine to form a mixing region therebetween. The stator can define a primary flow path and a bypass flow path. The primary flow path is aligned relative to the plurality of blades so that water exiting the primary flow path traverses the mixing region and impinges on the plurality of blades at a first angle of attack. The bypass flow path is aligned relative to the primary flow path so that water exiting the bypass flow path intersects the water exiting the primary flow path in the mixing region to cause the water exiting the primary flow path to impinge on the plurality of blades at a second angle of attack. The sprinkler can further include a valve configured to regulate flow between the primary flow path and the bypass flow path.

Irrigation nozzles are provided that irrigate a full circle coverage area with different maximum throw radiuses. The nozzle may include two bodies, one nested within the other, that acting together form the full circle coverage area. The two bodies collectively define an annular exit orifice with one of the bodies defining the inner radius and the other body defining the outer radius. A flow restrictable inlet may be used to adjust flow through the nozzle and to adjust the maximum throw radius. The nozzle may also include a flow reduction valve to reduce the throw radius from a maximum distance and may be adjusted by actuation of an outer wall of the nozzle. A deflector for use with an irrigation nozzle is also provided.

A rotary sprinkler comprises a rotatable irrigation head with one or more nozzles, associated with liquid feed lines, which extend thereto from a sprinkler base housing, and further comprises a static biasing control base located below the irrigation head, e.g. between the sprinkler base housing and the irrigation head. The sprinkler can comprise a flow regulator arm, whose movement, at least indirectly, results in reducing the cross-sectional area of liquid flow towards at least one of the nozzles, and a flow deflector arm configured to interfere with a liquid jet discharged from at least one of the nozzles in order to affect the angle and range of the liquid jet. The static biasing control base can comprise an array of biasing elements, which can bias a cam follower configured to rotate together with the irrigation head and transfer its rotational displacement to the flow regulator arm and flow deflector arm, e.g. through respective gear elements. The gear elements can be adjusted to control a ratio between the extent of deflection of the two arms due to the rotation of the cam follower. The rotatable irrigation head can comprise a cover for preventing exposure of the dynamic control elements to the exterior of the sprinkler.

A showerhead engine includes a first plate joined to a second plate with a cavity therebetween. Water enters the cavity through an angled hole in the first plate and flows in a swirling motion about the central axis. A paddle wheel is spun within the cavity by the swirling water. A notched cutout in the paddle wheel forms an exit passage through a through hole in the second plate allowing the water to exit when the notched cutout lines up with slots in the second plate. The revolving paddle wheel continues to revolve thereby revolving the notched cutout and producing a revolving spray pattern.

A sprinkler includes an inlet aperture, an outlet aperture, a body, a conical member, and a deflector. The inlet aperture receives fire suppressant agent at an inlet end of the sprinkler and the outlet aperture is at an outlet end of the sprinkler. The body extends along a longitudinal axis and includes an inner volume forming a fluid flow path between the inlet end and the outlet end of the sprinkler. The conical member is positioned at the outlet end of the sprinkler directs the fire suppressant agent outwards. The deflector receives fire suppressant agent from the conical member and distributes the fire suppressant agent about a service area. The deflector includes multiple tines, which each extend along a corresponding radial axis that is substantially perpendicular with the longitudinal axis. Each tine is offset by an angular amount about the corresponding radial axis.

A rotary sprinkler riser extension kit is disclosed for use with a rotary sprinkler. The kit includes an external riser extension having an upper end and lower end, and defining a channel extending through the upper end and lower end. The channel is configured to accommodate the stem of the rotary sprinkler, the upper end is configured to attach to the cap of the rotary sprinkler, and the lower end is configured to attach to the enclosure of the rotary sprinkler. The kit also includes an internal riser extension having a height substantially equal to total length of the external riser extension, a width less than inner width of the enclosure of the rotary sprinkler, means for attaching to the geared lower end of the stem, a lower gear configured to rotate the rotary sprinkler, and means to raise the stem and channel water thereto in response to water pressure at an inlet to the enclosure.

A showerhead is disclosed including a first nozzle, a second nozzle, and a massage mode assembly in fluid communication with a fluid inlet, the first nozzle and the second nozzle. The massage mode assembly includes a turbine, a cam coupled to the turbine defining a dwell edge that extends between a leading corner and a follower corner, and a shutter movably coupled to the cam, where movement of the turbine causes the cam to drive shutter between a first position covering the first nozzle and opening the second nozzle and a second position opening the first nozzle and covering the second nozzle.
