ABSTRACT:
Aspects of the invention relate to a sprinkler apparatus providing multiple operational modes. For instance, the apparatus can operate as a conventional traveling sprinkler. In addition, the apparatus can provide one or more additional ports so that a user can attach additional hoses or other watering or irrigation equipment. The apparatus can include a switch so that a user can selectively switch a valve so that a fluid flows substantially exclusively to one of these additional ports. In one embodiment, a hose or other fluid dispensing device can be attached to one of the additional ports so that an operator can wash a car, water hanging pots, or perform other watering functions that cannot be accomplished by a traveling sprinkler.
