Description

A PERCUSSIVE SPRINKLER WITH ADJUSTABLE DISCHARGE ANGLE BACKGROUND OF INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates generally to a percussive sprinkler, and more particularly to an innovative one which is designed to adjust the discharge angle in the rotation process. 2. Description of Related Art The common sprinkler(referred to an auto-rotate percussive sprinkler) for gardening irrigation is generally composed of a main body, inlet tube, upper frame, guide assembly and outlet tube. The outlet tube is located obliquely at one side of the sprinkler's main body, such that when water flow is guided into the inlet tube and sprayed out from the outlet tube, a parabolic water column will be formed, and auto-rotate sprinkling is generated in combination with the guide assembly for desired irrigation purpose. However, it is found from actual applications that, when the common sprinkler is actuated for sprinkling and water flow is sprayed out from the outlet tube, a parabolic sprinkling distance is formed due to oblique arrangement of the outlet tube; meanwhile, circular or oriented sprinkling is generated via arrangement of the guide assembly; yet, in view of the fixed oblique arrangement of the sprinkler's outlet tube, the sprinkling distance is limited, making it impossible to meet diversified irrigation requirements; for this reason, a percussive sprinkler with adjustable discharge angle has been developed, namely, the discharge angle of the sprinkler head can be pre-adjusted to change the parabolic sprinkling distance of water flow.
As a single discharge angle is maintained during rotation of said percussive sprinkler with adjustable discharge angle, it is impossible to realize flexible irrigation in fast-growing gardening sectors, leading to uneven sprinkling/irrigation and poorer cultivation of agricultural crops. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The enhanced efficacy of the present invention is as follows: Based on the unique design of the present invention that the "percussive sprinkler" mainly comprises a pedestal, adjusting ring, main body, percussion guide frame and sprinkler head driving rod, the height of the spacing for the driving rod retaining surface can be adjusted freely, such that the sprinkler head driving rod will shift vertically along the circumferential path on the driving rod retaining surface, and the sprinkler head is driven to swing with change of the discharge angle. In such case, spray with different sprinkling distance can be generated by the sprinkler head, thus making up the shortcomings for more uniform sprinkling coverage with higher flexibility and applicability.

Of which, the first end 51 of the sprinkler head driving rod 50 is linked to the lateral part or bottom of the circumferential flange 331 of the sprinkler head 33; in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first end 51 of the sprinkler head driving rod 50 is linked to the bottom of the circumferential flange 331 of the sprinkler head 33. Of which, a swinging seat 34 is pivoted onto lower flange close to the upper frame 32; as shown in FIGS. 1~4, the swinging seat 34 consists of a fixed seat 341 and a rotary seat 342; the rotary seat 342 is provided with a shaft lever 343 and a circumferential water passage 344; the fixed seat 341 is provided with a shaft hole 345 for sleeving the shaft lever 343 and a water inlet 346; besides, a sprinkler head 33 is protruded correspondingly from the preset location of the circumferential water passage 344 of the rotary seat 342, such that the main body 30 and the sprinkler head 33 can swing freely in tune with the swinging seat 34; of which the percussion guide frame 40 can be connected with either of the fixed seat 341 or rotary seat 342 of the swinging seat 34; as shown in FIG. 1, the percussion guide frame 40 is connected with the rotary seat 342. Referring also to FIGS. 5, 6--another preferred embodiment of the present invention, wherein a water inlet mating portion 321 is set onto lower flange close to the upper frame 32, so as to assemble the sprinkler head 33; the sprinkler head 33 consists of a rotary mating portion 333, which is provided with a locator 334; the water inlet mating portion 321 for the upper frame 32 consists of a water inlet 322 and a locating bulge 323 at both sides of the water inlet mating portion 321; when the sprinkler head 33 is mated with the water inlet mating portion 321, the locator 334 is snapped onto the locating bulge 323, enabling free swinging of the sprinkler head 33. Of which, the adjusting ring 20 is of .a circular disc pattern; the adjustor 22 is arranged at bottom of the adjusting ring 20 correspondingly to the setting surface 13; the adjustor 22 consists of adjustable column 221 and locating hole 222; the adjustable columns 221 are protruded downwards from the bottom of the adjusting ring 20, and distributed evenly at interval; moreover, a plurality of gears 223 is formed at interval onto the adjustable column 221, whilst the locating hole 222 is arranged onto the setting surface 13, so that the adjustable column 221 can be locked by passing through the locating hole 222; and the height of the adjustable column 21 can be adjusted by mating the gear 223 with the locating hole 222. Based on above-specified structural design, the present invention is operated as follows: In the actual applications, water flow firstly passes through the swinging seat 34 and enters into the main body 30 from the inlet tube mating end 31 at lower part of the main body 30, and then into the circumferential water passage 344 through the water inlet 346 of the swinging seat 34; next, water flow is fed to the sprinkler head 33, enabling to impact the hydraulic pusher 41 of the percussion guide frame 40 to make it swing outwards; then, the torsional spring 42 of the percussion guide frame 40 generates a torsional restoring force, enabling torsional resetting of the hydraulic pusher 41 for circumferential and deflecting sprinkling of the percussive sprinkler A. Next, when the main body 30 is rotated, the discharge angle of the sprinkler head 33 can be adjusted; referring to FIG. 4, with the mating of adjustable column 221 and locating hole 222 of the adjustor 22 set for the adjusting ring 20 (also disclosed in FIG. 1), the height of the spacing for the driving rod retaining surface 21 can be adjusted freely, such that when the main body 30 is rotated, the sprinkler head driving rod 50 will shift vertically along the circumferential path on the driving rod retaining surface 21 of the adjusting ring 20, and the sprinkler head 33 is driven to swing with change of the discharge angle. In such case, spray with different sprinkling ranges (in collaboration with FIG. 7) can be generated, allowing to change spraying angle to form different parabolic sprinkling distance with more uniform sprinkling coverage; with the help of the adjusting ring 20, it is possible to meet diversified gardening irrigation purposes in irregular regions(shown by D in the figure).
