Description

A. W. BARKER Filed Sept. 8, 1947 NOZZLE SPRINKLER ATTACHMENT may M h .WI 2 WWW Oct. 24, 1950 R O T N E V m ATTORNEYS.
Patented Oct. 24, 1950 UNITED STATES TENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates to an attachment designed for positioning on nozzles used in connection with hose designed for waterin lawns, flower beds o the like.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which may be readily and easily attached to a spray nozzle of a hose to direct the spray upwardly and to further convert the stream of water into an extremely fine spray to prevent damage to a lawn or flower bed being watered.
An important object of the invention is to provide a device of this character, which may be constructed from scrap material at a minimum cost, means being provided for securing the spring arms of the clamp used in clampin the device to a nozzle, to the sprinkler blade of the attachment.
vWith the foregoing and other objects in View which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts, hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in. the claim, it being understood that changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure 1 is a side elevational view of a nozzle equipped with a sprinkler blade, constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a plan view thereof.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on line 4l of Figure 2.
Referring to the drawing in detail, the sprinkler attachment comprises a body in the form of a wide sheet metal plate, having its rear edge turned inwardly, providing a flange 6 that extends along the body.
The body is constructed to provide a wide flat ground engaging surface I, and a curved end 8, which curved end is so arranged that a stream of waterv directed thereto, will be directed upwardly and caused to flatten into a wide spray.
Adjacent to the flange 6, are clips 9 that are stamped from the sheet metal plate, the clips 9 being so arranged that they will overlie and grip the straight portions I0 of the spring fingers I I, that rise from the .body in such relation with respect to each other that they will grip a spray nozzle of a hose, adjacent to the discharge end of the nozzle.
Associated with the clips 9 are flanges [2, which provide stops against which the ends of the straight portions I0 of the spring fingers ll, engage, preventing movement of the fingers ll, away from each other. It will, of course, be understood that the clips 9 are pressed against the straight portions ID of the spring fingers II, to secure them against movement.
It might be further stated that for convenience and economy in manufacture, the clips 9 are stamped from the metal plate of which the body 5 is constructed.
Due to this construction, itwill be seen that the body may be adjusted with respect to the nozzle, from the position shown in full lines in Figure 1 of the drawing, to the position shown in dotted lines, or vice versa, to meet the requirements of use.
When the nozzle of a hose is positioned between the spring fingers, the hose will be held in such a position that a stream of water will be directed against the curved surface of the body or sheet metal plate, causing the water to be broken into a fine spray and directed upwardly, simulating rain, to distribute the water over the lawn or flower bed being watered.
It will also be noted that because of the rear flange 6, the device may be pulled over the lawn to adjust or rearrange the nozzle for sprinkling, the flange causing the body to ride over obstructions on the lawn.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is:
A spray attachment for water delivering noz zles, comprising a body constructed of a sheet metal material presenting a flat ground-engagil'lg surface, a pair of spring arms having straight portions, opposed clips punched upwardly from the body and lying above the plane of the body, under which the straight portions of the spring arms each are held, securing the spring arms to the plate, said spring arms adapted to grip the nozzle of a hose securing the nozzle to the body, and upstanding flanges struck from the body forming stops against which the ends of the straight portions of the spring arms engage, holding the spring arms against lateral movement away from each other.
