ABSTRACT:
System and process for producing different embodiments of sprinkler assemblies uses two different first housing assemblies, from which one first housing assembly is selected for producing a desired sprinkler assembly embodiment. Each first housing assembly is replaceable with the other and includes an inlet end and a spaced outlet end; the inlet end of each first housing assembly is configured for connection with a source of water under pressure. Each first housing assembly also includes an adjustable flow control mechanism to control the flow of water under pressure through the first housing assembly. The control mechanism may include a manually-actuated moveable valve structure to control water flow rate, or a timing mechanism to select a duration for the water flow. By providing a first housing assembly with a control mechanism that is different from that of the other first housing assembly, the sprinkler assembly embodiment produced will depend upon the first housing assembly that is selected. A second housing assembly having an oscillating mechanism also is provided, and a sprinkler head assembly is connected to the oscillating mechanism. The first housing assembly, the second housing assembly, and the sprinkler head assembly are supported by a base assembly on the area to be sprinkled. Additional features, such as adjusting rings and spray width control members, also may be provided.
