An irrigation emission device includes a barb that is self-piercing, and the irrigation emission device may be installed either manually or with the use of a piercing or insertion tool. In any event, the barb assists in making installation easier by piercing the hose to insert a portion of the device through the hose. Preferably, the barb will not pierce an opposing wall of the hose during installation.

Apparatus and method of forming connector brackets for irrigation laterals along a prefabricated lay-flat pipe and lay-flat pipe with such connector's brackets, wherein an opening is formed at one wall of the premanufactured pipe, a separation means is positioned inside the pipe opposite the opening while separating the one wall from the second wall of the pipe, and an injunction molding is performed into a mold cavity, in order to form the bracket affixed to the one wall of the prefabricated pipe and around the opening.

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.

A corrugated piping assembly for use in an irrigation system for bridging between different pipe sections and/or irrigation appliances. The assembly has a corrugated pipe section fitted at a rear end to a connector and a sleeve overlaying a region where the pipe section fits over the connector. The sleeve is arranged to press inwards against the pipe section to press it against portions of the connector.

An in-line button drip emitter may include a core fitting into a cover. For example, the core may include a cylindrical section with an elliptical cross section. For example the cover may close over a pressure reducing labyrinth formed in the outer cylindrical sides of the core. Optionally the cover has a long axis which is parallel to the long axis of the cross section of the core. In some embodiments, the bonding surface has an arched profile. Optionally, the arched profile fits an inner wall of an irrigation tube. For example, an axis of the arched profile may be parallel to the long axis of the elliptical cross section of the core and/or the arched profile may be parallel to the axis of the cover.

A dispenser for simultaneously dispensing water and fertiliser comprising: a chamber having a chamber wall which is at least partially water permeable; a fertiliser supply line having a fertiliser supply line wall; a water supply line having a water supply line wall, the water supply line wall having at least one aperture extending through the wall; the water supply line and the fertiliser supply line being arranged within the chamber; and at least one dispensing head comprising one or more outlets; wherein the at least one dispensing head extends through the fertiliser supply line wall and the water permeable wall of the chamber.

Various systems, methods and apparatus for locating emitters embedded in tubing are disclosed herein, as well as forming outlets in said tubing and confirming the placement accuracy of such outlets. In one form, an emitter locator is disclosed having: a housing defining a generally enclosed space and having an inlet located in a first side of the housing and an outlet located in a second side of the housing positioned opposite the inlet; a cutter positioned within the generally enclosed space between the inlet and outlet; a first optical instrument located proximate the inlet; a second optical instrument located proximate the outlet; and a controller connected to the cutter and first and second optical instruments, the controller configured to detect a tubing target area desired for placement of an outlet opening in tubing that passes through the inlet and cut the tubing target area to form the outlet opening therein.

Provided is an irrigation system including a flexible conduit having a first end connectable to a liquid supply, a second end opposite the first end, and a plurality of openings along a length thereof between the first and second ends, a plurality of rigid connectors coupled to the flexible conduit at respective ones of the plurality of openings, each of the plurality of rigid connectors including a first portion disposed in the flexible conduit and a second portion extending out of the flexible conduit through the respective one of the plurality of openings, and a plurality of attachment portions configured to be attached to the second portions of the plurality of rigid connectors.

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.
