MEDIUM-JET SPRINKLING APPARATUS Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering. SUBSTANCE: this apparatus incorporates equidirectional tubes 3, rocker arm 5 carrying rotatable deflectors 10 with pivotally revolving jet plates 12 facing attachment fittings 4 of tubes 3. Water jet sprayed from end fitting 4 is directed to deflector 10 and plate 12 to leave their edges radiatingly at certain angles and with high velocity. With sprinkling apparatus suspended, its deflector 10 may raise water jet coming out of end fitting 4 from -30 to +10 deg relative to horizon, maintaining optimum jet discharge angle and atomized spraying. EFFECT: more sophisticated design. 4 dwg
