Abstract: A sprinkler head apparatus includes two separately molded members secured together independently of a water volume control member. A number of selectively removable devices that withstand the forces of water in irrigation systems and can be easily removed by the user without additional hardware are situated at the entry point of water outflow channels to provide the user directional control of the water sprayed from the apparatus. Registration elements are provided to ensure the proper alignment between the members of the apparatus. Correspondingly, indicia located at upper and lower external surfaces of the assembled apparatus reduce or eliminate the need to disassemble the apparatus or intermittently test the water spray pattern to ensure proper installation of the apparatus. Preferred methods for assembling the apparatus, for directing the outflow of water, and for aligning the members of the apparatus are disclosed.

Abstract: An improved tubing adapter or coupling apparatus, and combination of same with other fittings, is characterized by an adapter member having a first end including at least one exterior barb for engagement with tubing and a sleeve member operatively positioned around the adapter. In some systems, the tubing or hose may include a fitting at its other extremity, such as a hose end, an ell, or another coupling. The sleeve member of the coupling apparatus preferably includes one or more view ports. The ports can enable the user to visually confirm the tubing has been properly and completely assembled onto the adapter member, and, following initial assembly, to visually ascertain the position of the tubing on the adapter. The apparatus also preferably includes corresponding engagement detents on the adapter and sleeve member, for initial engagement of the retaining member with the adapter member prior to assembly with tubing. The sleeve or retaining member also preferably includes an interior barb to help prevent inadvertent dislodgment of the tubing from the adapter/coupling, such as by providing clamping or “biting” action by the coupling when assembled on the tubing. In addition to various fittings at the opposite extremity of the tubing or hose, the adapter itself can include one or more other ends in internal fluid communication with the first end, which other ends may be any of a wide variety of configurations, including being similar or identical to the first end, a valve or other outlet, a plug, an elbow or tee, a container, a manifold, or another type of connection or fitting. A method of use of the adapter/coupling is disclosed, including various combinations of the steps of assembling the retaining member with the adapter member prior to assembly with selected tubing; engaging the adapter member and retaining member on the tubing; utilizing the view ports to confirm that the tubing is properly assembled on the adapter member; and connecting other fittings to the opposite extremity of the hose or tubing.

Abstract: An improved low volume spray device for an irrigation system comprises upper and lower separately molded plastic members that may be assembled before or after the lower member is installed on a fluid conduit. The lower member, which is secured within the conduit, is molded with a conical deflector portion that receives the main force of the liquid stream from the conduit. An upper head member snaps onto the lower member and has a peripheral series of spaced apart teeth adapted to receive liquid from the conical deflector and separate it to form a uniform spray pattern of radially directed streams. Since the main fluid force is on the conical deflector, fluid pressure cannot act to separate the upper member when in use.

Abstract: A drip irrigation emitter having a body with internal structure for reducing fluid pressure to provide a low pressure trickle output and an inlet member providing a passage for water to the internal structure and adapted to connect the emitter to a supply hose. The inlet member has a frusto-conical barb portion integral with a neck portion that extends between the large end of the barb portion and the emitter body. A cylindrical portion extending from the small end of the barb portion, which has at least one inlet opening, is usable as a mechanical punch to enable the emitter to be attached with one simple operation to a plastic irrigation hose or lateral without prepunching holes therein.

Abstract: An improved apparatus and method are provided for irrigation systems such as automated sprinkler systems. A pre-assembled housing or valve box includes an inlet for receiving water and one or more outlets for distribution of water to other components in the irrigation system, and also includes manifolding and power and valve means for selectively controlling the flow of water from the outlets. Many of the manifold components are integrally molded with each other and provided in modular form so that the system can be relatively compact and can be customized into a variety of configurations. The manifold can consist of or include integrally formed or interconnected valve bases. The electrical power system includes a main terminal box with power lines leading to connectors adjacent each outlet, so that solenoid valves may be readily connected thereto and replaced as necessary. O-rings, non-conducting gel, and similar mechanisms are provided to ensure the water-tightness of the electrical connections. The box and its components may be manufactured, assembled, and installed more reliably, conveniently and economically than conventional irrigation systems, and may also be tested before installation.

Abstract: A spline for joining irrigation tubing includes an elongated body portion. The body is configured to be inserted into and substantially fill a channel formed by aligning an interior channel in a female tubing end and a corresponding exterior channel in a male end. One or more serrations or slots in the body facilitate bending the body into annular channels. The end of the body is tapered to facilitate its insertion, including a taper along its length (such as on the side opposite the serrations), and a gripping portion on the spline further facilitates insertion and removal. Related methods are disclosed.
