An oscillating sprinkler that includes a frame with a first boom and a second boom engaged therewith. The booms are oriented generally parallel to each other and each of the first and second booms rotates about an axis that extends along the boom's length of the respective first or second boom. The first and second booms rotate in opposite directions to each other and are synchronized so that they rotate toward each other or away from each other in unison. First and second booms are operatively engaged with gears that are driven by a water-powered motor. One or more valves may be provided to shut off or reduce water flow from one or both of the booms. The watering pattern from the booms is such that water tends to be more evenly distributed over a ground surface upon which the sprinkler is placed.

According to the present disclosure, there is provided an electrostatic spraying device equipped with a spray nozzle spraying a liquid and a strip-shaped charging section charging the liquid sprayed from the spray nozzle, the electrostatic spraying device comprising: a power supply line which supplies power to the charging section; an electrical resistance member that constitutes a part of a power supply path from the power supply line to the charging section and allows a current flowing through the charging section to be weaker than a current flowing through the power supply line; and a housing which accommodates the electrical resistance member and into which the power supply line is drawn.

According to the present disclosure, there is provided an electrostatic spraying device comprising: a spray nozzle which sprays a liquid (chemical solution); and a charging section which charges the liquid (chemical solution) sprayed from the spray nozzle, wherein the spray nozzle is provided with a distal end movable around a base end, and wherein the charging section has a shape along a movement path of the distal end.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for delivering water and nutrients to crops. The present invention also relates to a system comprising the apparatus of the present invention connected to a hose traveler device. Also disclosed is a method of delivering water and nutrients to the soil using the system of the present invention.

A nozzle height adjustment subsystem for use with an irrigation system comprises a spool, a rotation device, and a control device. The spool includes a central hub and is configured to retain a drop hose to which a nozzle is attached. The rotation device is coupled to the spool and rotates the spool in a first direction or a second, opposite direction when it is activated. The control device includes electronic circuitry that is configured to generate a signal that activates the rotation device.

A controlled droplet applicator (CDA) system comprising a CDA nozzle cup having an open end; a shroud covering all but a portion of the open end; and an air assist device disposed proximal to the open end, the cup and the air assist device separated by at least a portion of the shroud.

Described herein are implements and applicators for placement of fluid applications with respect to agricultural plants of agricultural fields. In one embodiment, a fluid applicator for applying fluid to plants in rows in a field includes at least one applicator arm that is actuated by an actuator to move the applicator arm from a position in the row between plants to a position adjacent to the plant.

The present invention provides an improved mechanism for centering implements in agricultural fields by providing a laser guidance system with a laser attached to the implement. The laser may operate to emit a beam in order to produce a spot or beam onto the field which an equipment operator may visually target to improve steering of the implement. The laser may be centered on the implement, and the beam produced by the laser may be directed forward within a steering range of the implement and within a field of view of the equipment operator.

A controlled droplet application (CDA) nozzle has a CDA nozzle cone having a first axis of rotation in a first position and, after adjustment, a second axis of rotation in a second position orthogonal to the first. A rotationally adjustable directional shroud surrounds at least a portion of the cone, the directional shroud blocking at least a portion of a lip of the cone regardless of whether the cone is positioned in the first or second axis of rotation.
