ABSTRACT:
A water irrigation emitter comprises a labyrinth in which the main flowpath is divided into a plurality of branches, and each of the branches is in turn divided into a plurality of sub-branches, the sub-branches being oriented such that the water flowing through each of the sub-branches of one branch intersect the water flowing through each sub-branch of the other branch at a plurality of intersection points. This to dissipates a substantial amount of the water energy to produce a low flow rate while still enabling the use of passageways of relatively large cross-section which are not susceptible to clogging. The flow rate may be further reduced by the provision of obstructions at the centers of each of the intersections.
