Abstract: An oscillating lawn sprinkler (4) has a spray pipe (7) pivotally mounted on a sprinkler body (5). The spray pipe (7) is driven to oscillate by water pressure through a motor mechanism disposed in a driving mechanism compartment (6). The driving mechanism compartment (6) is connected to a supply of water on one side thereof and with one end of the spray pipe (7) on the other side thereof. An adjusting mechanism is provided for adjusting the flow rate of water delivered by the spray pipe. Furthermore, a mechanism for adjusting the oscillating range of the spray pipe has a control member (9) disposed on the same side of the driving mechanism compartment (6) as a control member (26) of the water flow rate adjusting mechanism. Both the control members (9, 26) are disposed on the side of the driving mechanism compartment opposite to the spray pipe (7). A filtering mechanism is removably housed at a water supply inlet connection (8) of the oscillating sprinkler (4) for filtering the supply water.

Abstract: A quick-release plug-in coupling device includes a female member to be connected to one hose and including a body, a valve seat internally of the body, and at least one opening through the body. A male member to be connected to another hose includes a body sealingly fittable into the body of the female member, the male member body having formed therein at least one recess. A valve member is positioned within the female member for movement between closed and opened positions relative to the valve seat. At least one actuating member is positioned outwardly of the female member and has an integrally formed elastic member extending inwardly through the opening in the body of the female member. The elastic member has an inner end fittable into the recess in the body of the male member. The actuating member is selectively manually movable axially of the female member between locking and release positions.

Abstract: A hose winding cart including a handle, a base including wheels, a pair of identically shaped lateral arms, a reel, a first stud and a second stud. The pair of lateral elements are connected to the handle and the base at positions which are spaced apart in a longitudinal direction. The reel for winding a hose thereon includes a pair of identically shaped reel halves, each of the reel halves having snap connections thereon for interconnecting the reel halves to form the reel. The first stud is connected between one of the lateral elements and one of the reel halves for rotatably supporting one side of the reel, the first stud having connections thereon for supplying a fluid medium to a hose carried by the reel. The second stud is connected between the other one of the lateral elements and the other one of the reel halves for rotatably supporting the other side of the reel. The second stud includes a crank extending therefrom for rotating the reel.
