Abstract: A continuous mini-flow irrigation device wherein a metering cone having a metering slot therein is adjustably inserted through a resilient washer for adjustably metering flow through the irrigation device. Full flow through the device is achieved when the metering cone is fully inserted through the washer, which insures that the metering slot will not become plugged with debris and further wherein under varying pressure conditions the washer will be deformed into the metering slot to maintain a uniform continuous flow from the irrigation device.

Abstract: A combination irrigation and temperature control system for plants and the like, includes a spray producing fitting connected at its opposite ends with a water conduit and an air conduit, respectively. The fitting has a chamber therein into which air under pressure flows and a plurality of air openings in the side thereof, through which the air exits the chamber under pressure. The fitting includes separate areas on the outer surface thereof over which water is caused to flow in thin sheets, and the air openings extend through these areas, so that jets of air exiting the openings intercept the sheets of water and produce either a fine mist or fog or a spray of water droplets, depending upon the air pressure, whereby the fog produced can be used to provide a cover blanket to prevent or block heat radiation from leaf and soil surfaces, and the spray can be used to coat the leaf surfaces, whereby the latent heat of converting the spray to liquid and the liquid to ice warms the leaves to prevent freezing thereof. The system operates at low water pressure and uses very little water, and is thus exceptionally economical.

Abstract translation: 用于植物等的组合灌溉和温度控制系统包括分别在其相对端处连接有喷水管道和空气管道的喷雾生产配件。 该配件具有一个室内，压力下的空气流过，在其一侧的多个空气开口，空气通过该空气在压力下离开室。 该装置包括在其外表面上的分开的区域，使水流过薄片，并且空气开口延伸穿过这些区域，使得离开开口的空气射流拦截水片并产生细雾或 雾或水滴的喷雾，这取决于气压，由此产生的雾可用于提供覆盖层以防止或阻挡来自叶和土壤表面的热辐射，并且喷雾可用于涂覆叶表面， 由此将喷雾转化为液体并将液体转化为冰的潜热使叶片冷冻以防止其冻结。 该系统在低水压下工作，并且使用非常少的水，因此是非常经济的。

Abstract: A frame means is supported by wheels mounted on an axle which is removably connected to the frame means. Reel support means is carried by the frame and is drivingly connected with drive means supported by the frame means. The reel support means includes a plurality of drive members. A removable reel has means for receiving said drive members to provide a driving connection therewith. A rotatable guide portion is mounted in spaced relationship to the reel. The guide means is mounted on a support portion which is pivotally connected with the frame means, and locking means is provided for locking the support portion in desired operative position.
