A sprinkler head is disclosed having a fluid distribution cage configured to nutate between an upper sprinkler body plate and a lower sprinkler body plate. The sprinkler head has a projection to cause the fluid distribution cage to hang at a non-horizontal angle prior to initiation of nutation. The projection is configured to move or rotate away from the upper cage plate of the fluid distribution cage during nutation initiation. Preferably the projection is positioned on a gimbal ring that rotates in response to force asserted on the projection by the upper cage plate. Preferably the gimbal ring has two projections positioned on opposing sides of the axis of rotation of the gimbal ring.

There is provided a turf cup assembly that attaches to a buried pop-up type sprinkler to blend a top of sprinkler both cosmetically and functionally with turf surrounding the sprinkler. The turf cup assembly includes a turf cup and a sleeve. The turf cup mounts to a riser of the pop-up type sprinkler. The turf cup contains soil and root structure of turf. The sleeve surrounds the turf cup and attaches to a top of a housing of a pop-up sprinkler. The sleeve can be at or slightly below grade, and the cup extends out of the sleeve during an irrigation cycle and retracts into the sleeve at the end of the irrigation cycle.

A spool and wobbler assembly for a sprinkler includes a spool section with facing spool flanges on opposite sides of a spool core, where at least one of the spool flanges includes a circumferential rolling ledge. A wobbler cage including a wobbler ring is supported on the spool section, and a water deflector plate is coupled with the wobbler cage. An underside of the wobbler ring is provided with a circumferential rolling surface that engages the circumferential rolling ledge of the at least one spool flange. The rolling surface and rolling ledge provide for smoother orbital motion of the deflector plate.

A sprinkler assembly includes a body defining an inlet, an outlet, and a fluid passage extending along a longitudinal axis between the inlet and the outlet. A guide pin aperture is defined by at least one of the body or a bushing coupled to the body. The sprinkler assembly further includes a deflector slidably coupled to the body. The deflector includes a deflector body coupled to a guide pin. The guide pin includes a shaft portion extending through the guide pin aperture and a shoulder that is wider than the shaft portion and configured to engage at least one of the body or the bushing to limit movement of the deflector body away from the body.

A liquid-emitting device for gravity-based irrigation systems includes a support structure that defines a first axis and has a nozzle for generating an irrigation jet coaxial with the first axis, a tubular body below the support structure, and a baffle plate facing the nozzle and rotatably mounted in the tubular body to rotate about a second axis. The nozzle is stationary and the second axis is free to rotate about the first axis with a precessional motion. Guides are removably coupled to the tubular body to interact with the baffle plate and prevent the precessional motion while allowing the rotational motion about the second axis. A diverting member may be removably positioned downstream from the nozzle to distribute the liquid over an area of the soil. An arrangement of a nutating liquid-emitting device in combination with an anti-nutating adaptation kit is also disclosed.

A liquid flow distribution system comprises a flow chamber and a rotor. The flow chamber has a flow chamber inlet, a flow chamber outlet and a chamber flow path extending from the flow chamber inlet to the flow chamber outlet. The flow chamber path is curved so as to generate a generally vortical flow in liquid passing through the chamber flow path. The rotor has a plurality of rotor blades rotatably mounted about a rotor axis. The rotor is mounted in proximity to the flow chamber outlet and positioned such that a flow of liquid exiting the flow chamber outlet impacts one or more of the rotor blades to rotationally drive the rotor. Rotational driving of the rotor in turn disperses liquid impacting the rotor blades.

A rotating sprinkler is configured with only three components without need of any other manufactured component. The three components are constituted by abase component connected to a water source, a rotating head component from which a water stream is emitted which is rotatably mounted on an element of the base component, and a gravitating hammer component pivotally mounted on the head component that causes intermittent rotary motion of the head component about a vertical rotation axis by intermittently engaging the emitted stream and providing in response a reaction force. The hammer component is configured to intercept the emitted water stream within an interior space between a deflecting surface and a ramping surface when downwardly pivoted and to urge the intercepted water stream to flow upwardly along the ramped surface and to impinge upon the deflecting surface, causing the hammer component to pivot upwardly prior to being gravitated.

Rotary nozzles and deflectors for use with rotary nozzles are provided. The deflector includes a number of flutes that deliver fluid streams radially outwardly from the deflector. Fluid striking the flutes of the deflector cause the deflector to rotate, and the flutes subdivide fluid impacting deflector into multiple fluid streams that are distributed radially outwardly to surrounding terrain as the deflector rotates. Each of the flutes have the same curvature, although they may have different inclinations to distribute fluid streams at different trajectories. The flutes may also include blocking and downward-facing features at the ends of the flutes to improve the evenness of the fluid distribution in the irrigation coverage area.

The present disclosure provides an irrigation water supply device for landscaping, relating to a technical field of landscaping. The irrigation water supply device for landscaping includes supporting parts. A middle mounting plate is disposed on one side of the supporting parts. An installation part is formed by the middle mounting plate and one side of the supporting parts, and a spraying part is disposed on a top of the installation par. A water inlet pipe is disposed on a bottom of the spraying part. The supporting parts include installation frames. First clamping heads are clamped at a bottom of the installation frames, and second clamping heads are clamped at one side of the installation frame. One side of the second clamping heads is fixedly connected with side mounting plates. A top of the side installation plates is fixedly connected with clamping hooks.

There is provided a turf cup assembly that attaches to a buried pop-up type sprinkler to blend a top of sprinkler both cosmetically and functionally with turf surrounding the sprinkler. The turf cup assembly includes a turf cup and a sleeve. The turf cup mounts to a riser of the pop-up type sprinkler. The turf cup contains soil and root structure of turf. The sleeve surrounds the turf cup and attaches to a top of a housing of a pop-up sprinkler. The sleeve can be at or slightly below grade, and the cup extends out of the sleeve during an irrigation cycle and retracts into the sleeve at the end of the irrigation cycle.
