A soil moisture auto control system which can be used in subsurface irrigation, outer space agricultural farm irrigation, semi-arid and arid agricultural areas irrigation and nutrients addition, as well as auto watering and nutrients addition devices for flower and/or vegetable pots in indoor planting, by an external negative pressure design system responding to soil moisture needs by plants in the agricultural areas by bi-directional flows arrangements to automatically adjust moisture needs for plants.

A drop base irrigation device includes a substantially vertical pipeline section, which is adapted to be secured to a truss of an irrigation system by a substantially horizontal supporting rod, and a support having a substantially U-shaped bracket. The bracket includes a pair of side walls and a curved connecting wall extending along a substantially horizontal axis. The side and connecting walls have substantially cylindrical smooth inner surfaces with substantially parallel opposed projections for snap-fit locking engagement of the rod in the bracket. A pair of curved appendages extend from one of the side walls and define a pair of substantially vertical seats with oppositely directed concavities for receiving the substantially vertical pipeline section and locking it by rotation about a substantially horizontal axis. A method of mounting a drop base irrigation device to a supporting rod of an irrigation system.

This emitter (120) has double ridges provided around a hole (173) which forms a portion of a flow path between a reduced-pressure flow path and a discharge part. A first ridge (174), which is the outermost ridge, is provided with four first grooves (177) which intersect said ridge. A second ridge (175) is provided with one second groove (178) which intersects said ridge. As the external liquid pressure increases, a film (140) sequentially adheres to the first ridge (174) and the second ridge (175). The flow rate of an irrigation liquid is adjusted to an amount capable of passing through the groove or grooves in the ridge to which the film (140) is adhered.

A fluid supply line is provided to reduce the labor and cost required for dripline system installations by providing predetermined fitting locations where driplines can be attached. The supply line consists of a conduit having a side wall, a connector extending through the side wall of the conduit, the connector having a conduit connecting segment extending outside the conduit and an inlet segment extending into the conduit, and the inlet segment being connected to the side wall of the conduit.

A low-flow emitter includes a first housing and a second housing. The first housing includes a first thread portion, and a first passage defined in the first thread portion. The second housing includes a second thread portion, and a second passage defined in the second thread portion corresponding with the first thread portion in a thread connection. Part of the thread connection between the first and second housings is a loose fitting thread connection. A spiral passage is formed along the loose fitting thread connection between the first and second housings. Water flow rate is able to be controlled by a rotation of the first housing with respect to the second housing.

A drip irrigation emitter is provided extending between first and second longitudinal ends. The emitter has an outer side for attaching to a pipe that is laterally bound between first and second longitudinal edges. The outer side has a flow path and an exit pool, and at least a section of the flow path extends downstream along the first edge and at least a portion of the exit pool is formed between the section of the flow path and the second edge.

An implement adjusting system having an implement with a plurality of adjustable components, a plurality of input values, at least one controlled system configured to adjust at least one of the plurality of adjustable components, and a controller that receives the plurality of input values, the controller configured to reposition the plurality of adjustable components based on the plurality of input values. Wherein, the plurality of adjustable components are repositionable by the controller based on the input values.

The present invention aims to provide an emitter and a drip irrigation tube that can suppress the variations in the discharge amount of the liquid caused by pressure fluctuations of the liquid in the drip irrigation tube. The emitter of the present invention is to be disposed on an inner wall of a tube including a discharge port, for regulating discharge of irrigation liquid from an inside of the tube to an outside of the tube via the discharge port. The emitter includes an intake portion; a regulating unit; a discharge portion; and a flow path. The regulating unit includes a recess; and a film, the film is fixed in a state of covering an inner space of the recess, a region of the film covering the inner space of the recess is a diaphragm portion, the recess has a through hole inside thereof on its bottom surface, the through hole of the recess communicates with the discharge portion, the recess has a slit communicating with the through hole on its bottom surface, and an edge portion forming an upper surface-side opening of the through hole on the bottom surface of the recess, except for the slit, is a valve seat portion for the film. In a state where the emitter is disposed in the tube, when no liquid is present in the tube, the diaphragm portion of the film is not in contact with the valve seat portion, and when the liquid is present in the tube, the diaphragm portion of the film can be in contact with the valve seat portion in accordance with a pressure of the liquid. The diaphragm portion of the film comes into contact with an entire valve seat portion with a time difference.

A rotating ejection type oozing hose comprises a rotation generator formed at an ejection opening at an interval along a longitudinal direction of a hose, applying a rotational force to a flow of water from an inner space of the hose to an outer space. The rotation generator comprises a barrel-shaped rotating space extended from the ejection opening and formed inside the hose. The rotating space is defined by a side portion formed to be extended from an inner wall of the hose and having a rotational force applying passage horizontally connecting the inner space of the hose to the rotating space and a bottom portion for closing a lower end of the side portion. The rotational force applying passage faces a point deviating from a center portion of the rotating space, applying a rotational force to water flowing into the rotating space through the rotational force applying passage.
