ABSTRACT:
A rotary irrigation system comprised of an interconnected string of pipe sections having sprinkler heads spaced along the length thereof, which string is connected at one end to a fixed upstanding water supply pipe and which is connected at the other end to a powered vehicle for propelling the pipe sections in circular paths in a field about the supply pipe. The pipe sections are supported by castered wheels which are offset alternately on opposite sides of the pipe string. The powered vehicle is arranged to be intermittently driven so that the string of pipe sections will be intermittently moved to permit adjacent radial segments of the field to be sequentially sprinkled. Means are provided for discharging all water from the string of pipe sections prior to the movement thereof to a new sprinkling position in order to reduce the weight to be pulled by the powered vehicle.
