Abstract: In a sprinkling apparatus constructed as a square sprinkler, which has a straight nozzle row with a plurality of nozzles and directionally adjustable nozzle axes, it is possible to tilt the nozzle axes of single nozzles collectively relative to one another. A preferred embodiment has a fan-like sprinkling pattern, the jets of the fan being symmetrically or asymmetrically brought together or moved apart. The fan edges can be adjusted independently of one another.

Abstract: A sprinkling apparatus constructed as a square sprinkler has a nozzle arrangement with a straight row of nozzles, whereof each has a nozzle inlet connected by a nozzle duct to a nozzle outlet. At least in a portion between the nozzle inlet and nozzle outlet, the nozzles are constructed as rubber-like water guidance ducts, which are disconnectable by a force action transversely to the water flow direction. For the disconnection of individual nozzles clamping sliders are provided and are displaceable transversely to the water flow direction against the rubber-like nozzles and in the case of a displacement in each case disconnect or release again a nozzle. This permits a very variable adjustment of the sprinkling pattern.

Abstract: On a sleeve for a gardening tool, for example a quick coupling (12), surface parts of a flexible, soft and grip-promoting material (24) are provided in differing individual sections. These are applied in a two-component injection molding method and may also comprise special bump rims (27). By a differing color design and alternating exposure of the surface of the two composite materials of base body (17) and additional element (24) lettering, marking or configuring the surface may be achieved.

Abstract: A hose connector with gripping elements (18) pressing a hose (14) on a socket (15) uses a two-part sleeve (24). The two-part sleeve includes a screw piece (25) and an extension sleeve connected to the screw piece by a rotary connection and the two-part sleeve surrounds and supports the hose for a significant portion beyond the clamping area of the gripping elements (18). This inner sleeve (32) also has the funnel-shaped, conical actuating surface (33) for the pressing of the gripping elements.

Abstract: In a circular sprinkler, as a result of an intermediate gear, the turbine wheel runs muck faster than the jet splitter operating upstream thereof in the flow direction and also constructed as a turbine rotor, so that the sprinkler starts substantially independently of the water flow and an adjusting device can be provided with which it is possible at any time to manually adjust the sector to be watered. A slot-like bottom with an extension of the guide faces connected thereto is used for further increasing efficiency.

Abstract: A sprinkler (1) has flow control means (10) for producing different flow behaviour during forward and return motion of its sprinkler head (2), so that during forward motion there is a far-extending concentrated jet and during the return motion a spray jet watering the near area and discharged by the same nozzle outlet (11),
