Abstract: This disclosure relates to an irrigation system pipe joint or span coupling, which can connect a span of an irrigation system to another structure. In examples, the joint can include various components that attach an end of a first pipe or joint to an end of a second pipe or joint. For example, the end of the first joint can include a receiver plate, which can include a recess with a bushing. In addition, the end of the second joint can include a post, hook, or other elongated member that, in order to connect the first joint to the second joint, is insertable into the bushing.

Abstract: A mobile, modular shading and solar generation platform and system that provides adjustable shade for crops sensitive to excessive sunlight or as mobile paddock system for animals while optimizing power generation. The system has a platform with solar panels and shade panels that is supported by motorized mobile towers with batteries for electrical storage and transfer. The system can be equipped with different environmental sensors to detect biotic and abiotic stress in plants and control shading needs. Use of mobile, adjustable shading will reduce plant water use by decreasing the evapotranspiration rate. The platform may also include an irrigation system for controlled watering and growth lights to improve crop growth rate and quality. The system may also include a master controller for controlled movement of the apparatus structure, irrigation, sensor data and electricity transfer.

Abstract: On a user interface presented on a display screen, an alteration point marker is rendered on a circular shape representing a center pivot irrigation system. A fine position control may also be rendered on the display screen. The fine position control may comprise a first icon and a second icon, wherein the first icon is for repositioning the alteration point marker in a first circular direction, and wherein the second icon is for rotating the alteration point marker in the second circular direction.

Abstract: A mobile pump system can include a frame, a pump device connected to the frame and defining a pump inlet and a pump outlet. The pump device can provide water to a first outlet valve, a filtration system, and a manifold assembly. The manifold assembly can be supported by the frame, can be in fluid communication with the pump outlet, and can include the first outlet valve operable to selectively discharge unfiltered irrigation water from the pump outlet, a second outlet valve in fluid communication with the filtration system and operable to selectively discharge filtered irrigation water. The mobile pump system can further include a control system operably configured to be electrically connected to a power source and the pump device.

Abstract: An irrigation system with steady state speeds of movement achieves and maintains substantial straight alignment of multiple interconnected spans with continuous movement over a range of speeds in a forward and reverse movement direction. A variable-speed drive controller monitors and processes the output of the corresponding alignment detector and, based on the output of the alignment detector, selects from memory and continuously furnishes to the corresponding span motor a predetermined progressively increasing speed profile, a predetermined progressively decreasing speed profile, or a new fixed current speed.
