Abstract: A system for the remote control of a plurality of control units (A11 . . . A1n . . . An1 . . . Ann) for irrigation devices is described; the system includes a data processing device (1, B1 . . . Bn) for setting data regarding the duration and frequency of the irrigation periods of the irrigation devices associated to the control units and their position in time. The data processing device (1, B1 . . . Bn) includes a database (11) with archives containing the list of the control units of the plurality and data regarding their operation.

Abstract: A hose reel includes a support casing, a drum rotatably fitted inside the casing and connected to it by an elastic rewinding element. The drum provides a flange integral with it and couplable in rotation with a locking disc equipped with teeth engageable with opposing teeth capable of stopping its rotation. An elastic separator is provided between the flange and the locking disc to keep the latter in a first position axially distanced from the flange, teeth and counter-teeth mutually engaged to allow the flange to draw the locking disc into integral rotation with it, and cam and counter-cam which, in the event of the flange exceeding a predetermined threshold speed cause the axial displacement of the locking disc into a second position adjoining the flange in which its teeth engage with the opposing teeth to produce the consequent stopping of the rotation of said drum.

Abstract: There is described a control device that allows to drive both AC solenoids and DC bistable solenoids. The control device comprises power supply terminals which may selectively be connected to an AC or DC voltage source, load terminals which may be connected to a driven solenoid, at least one triac device connected in series to said driven solenoid, means which may be controlled to switch on said triac. There are further provided selector means interposed between said power supply terminals and said load terminals to switch the control device between a first configuration suitable for the power supply of an AC solenoid and a second configuration suitable for the power supply of a DC bistable solenoid and inverter means which may be controlled to invert the voltage polarity at the load terminals with respect to that applied at the power supply terminals when the control device (1) is selected in said second configuration.

Abstract: A liquid spraying pistol for gardening including an external casing passed through by a channel within which a valve is slidingly housed which is biased by a spring and is operable by a start lever which is turnable between a closing position and a maximum opening position of said valve and a device for the locking/unlocking of said lever in the maximum opening position. The device is made up of a button elastically supported by the lever in such a way as to be able to provide, with the lever in the maximum opening position, a locking engagement between the lever and the external casing.

Abstract: A device for the distribution of water into vases or similar objects. The device includes a water container, at least one tubular duct for the delivery of water to the outside and a control and programming device that establishes the quantity of water to be distributed in pre-established periods of time. The device for the distribution of water has a device for the control of the pressure of the quantity of water to be distributed that can keep the pressure of the quantity of water substantially constant, and an electric control delivery device located downstream of the device for the control of the pressure, upstream of the at least one tubular duct, and in flow connection with both. The delivery device is associated with the control and programming device in order to determine the delivery of the quantity of water.

Abstract: The present invention refers a decoder that can be programmed for an irrigation plant, a programming procedure for said decoder and a centralized irrigation plant comprising a plurality of said decoders. The decoder has the characteristic of comprising memorizing means and processing means, said memorizing means and processing means being directly connected to each other, in which said memorizing means can store an identity number and the operating parameters of the decoder itself.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a centralized control system that provides a plurality of transmittable commands to at least one connection interface. Said transmittable commands comprise a first command containing instructions for loading the contents of a third memory (NVM) in a first memory, a second command containing instructions for reading the contents of said first memory and transmitting it to said personal computer, a third command containing instructions for writing directly in said first memory, a fourth command containing instructions for reading directly the data contained in said first memory, a fifth command containing instructions for reading the data contained in a second memory; a sixth command containing instructions for selecting between a first (local) and second (remote) operative mode.
