  • Patent number: 4446928
    Abstract: The apparatus includes an endless nylon rope trained over two distally mounted sheaves which define paths spanning either side of the distally mounted sheaves and means for the continuous application of herbicide to the endless rope. The means for applying herbicide to the rope includes an immersion basin in which portions of the rope are continually pulled through a shallow level of herbicide. This is accomplished by training the endless rope onto a drive drum having at least one revolution of rope wherein the bottom of the drum is at a level below the level of the herbicide and an idler drum driven by the driven rope which again has at least one revolution or loop of wetted rope around it and which is submerged in the herbicide within the immersion basin.
