    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a sprinkler apparatus (5) and related methods for the distribution of fluid. The invention preferably includes a nozzle (10) rotably driven by a pressurized flow of fluid along a fluid path (15). The invention preferably includes a housing (50) separating a magnetic drag coupling assembly (55) from the fluid path (15). The coupling assembly (55) preferably includes spaced apart magnets (60, 65) configured to exert an attractive force on each other to rotate one magnet (65) in response to the rotation of the other magnet (60), and a resistive/drag force (66) to oppose the continuous rotation of the nozzle (10). Pressure offsetting structures (120, 75) minimize or even neutralize the upward/downward forces that the flowing fluid otherwise would exert on the rotating shaft assembly (32).

    Abstract: A multizone irrigation system (230A) includes a central control unit (300) having a central control system (60) interfaced with a central valve (302) and a central communication unit (e.g., a pressure sensor 304). The central valve regulates water flow for irrigation from a water source and can lower water pressure in the pipes using output (301). The central communication unit is constructed to transmit or receive pressure based communication signals providing irrigation information. Each zone includes a sprinkler control unit (2311, 2312 ...231N) including a sprinkler connected to a water pipe for irrigation. Each sprinkler control unit includes a local controller (235) interfaced with a local valve (250) for controlling water flow to the sprinkler. The sprinkler control unit also includes a local communication unit (e.g., a pressure sensor 239) constructed to receive communication signals from the central communication unit and provide received irrigation information to the local controller.

    Abstract: A modular green roof system includes modular panels (10) providing a surrounded space suitable for supporting live plant and adapted for installing onto a roof deck in side-b-side positioning while allowing water flow on the roof thereunder. The panels are installed with growing medium and greenery, and are releasably connected in a non-progressive manner that permits removal of a surrounded panel without disturbing the adjacent panels. The panels are further adapted to be pre-seeded prior to delivery to the roof site, and delivered in either a preserved condition or a germinated condition; and are adapted for connection to an edge finishing/edge termination system (46) and support structure to enable provision of non-panel areas of the green roof, and above-panel structures.

    Abstract: A drainage and irrigation system (10) for draining and irrigating an athletic field (12) utilizes a plurality of underground sensors (42) which sense the water level (122) above a water impermeable barrier (52) which isolates the field (12) from the graded earth (50) located below. The system (10) cooperates with a flow network (14) located above the barrier (50) and within a sand fill layer (54) which in turn supports a natural turf surface (56) thereabove. The system (10) also cooperates with a gravity drainage subsystem (15), a vaccum-assisted drainage subsystem (27) and an irrigation subsystem (246). The drainage and irrigation system (10) includes a controller (46) operatively connected to the sensors (42) and the three subsystems (15, 27, 246) to activate one of the three subsystems, or none of the subsystems, depending on the sensed water level (122) with respect to the barrier (52). The system (10) coordinates operation of the subsystems (15, 27, 246) to maintain a desired level of water (122) in the fill layer (54) above the barrier (52).

    Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for distributing greywater to a soil bed without significant erosion of the soil bed. An interior tube (12) defining at least one aperture (18) is disposed within an exterior tube (20). The interior tube and the exterior tube are immersed in a soil bed (30) for aerobic decomposition of greywater (32) discharged from the greywater distribution apparatus (34) into the soil bed (30). The apertures (18) of the interior tube (12) are sealed from the soil bed when greywater is not being discharged into the soil bed. Directing greywater into the interior tube at a sufficient pressure causes greywater within the interior tube (12) to be directed through the apertures (18). The exterior tube (20) baffles the flow of greywater through the apertures, thereby diminishing the velocity of the greywater. The greywater then passes between the interior tube and the exterior tube and is discharged from the exterior tube through a slot (22) which extends along a substantial portion of the exterior tube (20). The greywater is thereby discharged from the greywater distributionapparatus at a velocity and a flow rate which is sufficiently slow to prevent significant erosion of the soil bed.
