Swivel shower having a fluid pressure driven swivel body
Swivel shower including a base body, a swivel body including a shower outlet and held on the base body for swivel movement about a swivel axis between a first swivel body end position, constituting a rest position, and a second swivel body end position, constituting an operating position, a shower fluid inlet for supplying a shower fluid, and a swivel drive for driven swiveling of the swivel body, wherein the swivel drive includes a slide piston capable of being pressurized by a fluid pressure of the supplied shower fluid, which piston is arranged for translational movement between a first piston end position, corresponding with the first swivel body end position, and a second piston end position, corresponding with the second swivel body end position. Illustratively, the slide piston is arranged with a translation directional component in parallel to the swivel axis, and/or the swivel drive includes a transmission element in the form of a slotted guide mechanism between the slide piston and the swivel body, wherein the transmission element transmits the translational movement of the slide piston into a swivel movement of the swivel body, and/or the shower outlet in the rest position of the swivel body is swiveled away from a visible face of the swivel shower, and a swivel angle stroke from the first to the second swivel body end position is at most 90.

Irrigation sprinkler with removably mounted SOD cup
An irrigation sprinkler can include an outer case having an inlet end and an outlet end. The sprinkler can include a riser positioned at least partially within the outer case and having an upstream end and a downstream end. The riser can be configured to transition between a retracted position and an extended position wherein the downstream end is positioned on a side of the outlet end of the outer case opposite the inlet end of the outer case when the riser is in the extended position. The sprinkler can include a cup assembly connected to the downstream end of the riser, the cup assembly including organic or artificial turf therein, wherein the cup assembly is configured to be removed from the riser without emptying the turf therefrom.

HEIGHT AND ROTATIONAL ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM FOR A PLURALITY OF SPRAY GUNS USED IN A LINE STRIPER
A system and method have been shown for the effective implementation of a height and rotational adjustment system for a plurality of spray guns for use in a line striper.
Actuated Sprayer System
This technology relates to system for clearing a sensor cover. The system may include a sprayer, a support, and a positioning device. The sprayer may be mounted to the support and direct a flow of fluid to the sensor cover. The positioning device may be configured to adjust the position of the sprayer on the support. The system may include a nozzle and the nozzle may be positioned to direct the flow of fluid to an area of the sensor cover. The system may include additional sprayers.
SPRINKLER HEAD EXTENSION
Apparatus and associated methods relating to sprinkler head extension include a shaft extender that connects with an original shaft and a cap extender that replaces an original cap of a sprinkler head. In an illustrative example, a sprinkler head extension includes a shaft extender. The shaft extender has a coupling arrangement that connects the shaft extender with an original shaft in the sprinkler head. The sprinkler head extension also includes a cap extender that is configured to replace an original cap of the sprinkler head extension and provide a corresponding size to contain the shaft extender. By using the shaft extender and cap extender, a desired extended height of the sprinkler head may be obtained without replacing the whole sprinkler head. The sprinkler head extension may allow a user to raise the sprinkler head and avoid digging up and ruining the grass around the sprinkler head that needs to be raised.
