Abstract: A rotor (11) is provided with a plurality of uniformly circumferentially distributed, radially projecting, tubular nozzle supports (3), which in each case carry a nozzle head (4) at the end. Each nozzle head (4) is circumferentially provided with several differently constructed nozzle units (6, 7, 8) with in each case a plurality of discharge nozzles (9) and in the manner of a turret indexing head is so rotatable about a control axis (30) with respect to the associated nozzle carrier (3), that any selected one of its nozzle units (6, 7, 8) can be brought into the operating position connected to a water supply. This offers numerous possibilities for adjusting the sprinkling pattern.
