  • Patent number: 8646734
    Abstract: A sprinkler irrigation stand for use with an irrigation pipe has a base placed below the pipe for being stabilized by the pipe. The pipe freely rests upon the base so that it may be lifted freely off the base or may inflate freely upwards in the case the pipe is a collapsible pipe. A riser of the stand for supporting a sprinkler may be attached to the pipe and slide up in relation to the stand when attached to a collapsible pipe that is inflated.

  • Publication number: 20080087743
    Abstract: A rotary sprinkler having a longitudinal axis and comprising a housing comprising an upper housing and a lower housing, a nozzle adapted for being brought into fluid communication with a water source and to produce an axial water jet, said nozzle being movable along the axis between a lowered position and a raised position, and a diverter assembly adapted for receiving said water jet from the nozzle and laterally redirecting it. The diverter assembly is movable along the axis with said nozzle between respective inoperative and operative positions of the diverter assembly. The upper housing comprises a nozzle supporting section providing the nozzle with a radial support and an axial support, at least when it is in its raised position.

  • Publication number: 20070227593
    Abstract: An air relief valve for use with an irrigation pipe. The valve comprises a base attached to the wall of the pipe, a vent extending from the interior of the pipe to the exterior of the pipe, a shutoff mechanism, and a water level sensor disposed within the pipe. The vent has an inlet adapted to face the interior of the pipe and an outlet adapted to face the exterior of the pipe. The shutoff mechanism is pivotally articulated to the base between an opening position thereof wherein air can exit the pipe via the vent and a closing position thereof wherein air is prevented from exiting the pipe via the vent. The shutoff mechanism is responsive to the water level sensor to selectively pivot between the opening and the closing positions.
