Abstract

See full text

A hose controlled sprinkler device, whose sequential liquid output states can be remotely controlled by a substantially unidirectional movement of a hose connected to the sprinkler device. The hose controlled sprinkler device includes a valve and at least one valve support. The valve includes a moveable member, a valve housing, an inlet connection configured for connection to the hose and an outlet connection. The valve is configured to have at least one liquid off state, a liquid on state, and a liquid off state output sequence at the outlet connection. The sequence is established by a pressurized liquid input at the inlet connection and further by a unidirectional movement of the movable member and the housing one about the other. The at least one valve support is connected to the valve and is configured to stabilize the valve above at least one of a ground and a lawn. The liquid output states of the hose controlled sprinkler device can be remotely controlled by the substantially unidirectional movement of the hose which is both connected to the inlet connection and supplies the inlet connection with a pressurized liquid. In other embodiments, a sprinkler is connected to the outlet connection of the hose controlled sprinkler device.
