Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present system and series of accompanying apparatuses relate to horticultural assist systems, and particularly a water distribution, shade protection and animal protection system for the horticultural, agricultural and sports sectors to irrigate plants and gardens, regulate temperatures, and create control zones against animals, as well as provide ball containment systems for athletic activities.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

There are a variety of devices that are known for dispersing water around an area and some include stands that may elevate a system head to provide a better radius of dispersion. Since the dawn of farming ten thousand years ago in the Neolithic era, the need to regularly and efficiently hydrate and nourish crops that have been planted has existed.

In the initial years, planting was intentionally situated in proximity to river beds where the water table was high enough to provide the proper amount of moisture. Additionally, the ancient Egyptians implemented a similar technique by planting with the flooding cycle of the mighty Nile River, allowing the Nile to supply both water and nutrients for their crops.

As farming became more heavily relied upon for survival of villages and nations alike, farmers started to move away from river beds and into fields making irrigation more important. Eventually, channels and aqueducts for diverting water from rivers and streams were created to water the farmland. Subsequently, via gravity and pumping devices, water pressure systems were designed to push water out of pipes, effectively creating the first system. Today systems are used for much more than just shuttling water to crops; it is also used to control temperatures of cattle, athletic participants, and crowds.

Concurrent systems for the dispersal of fluids in the areas of agriculture and grass growth can be classified into numerous categories. In some embodiments, a series or system of piping comprising a small diameter and a height normally less than four (4) feet, either staked into the ground or attached to a larger pipe. The systems in this category are often not portable because they are frequently in fluid communication, integrated into, or attached to rigid water lines, or deeply imbedded into the soil to provide the needed stability. Additionally, the height and positioning of these systems renders them at a disadvantage to disperse water over a larger area, making it necessary for multiple units to be used to cover a specific area. The low height of the systems in this category only work for small crops/plants and cannot be used to create cooling zones for athletes or livestock because the water is not dispersed high enough and/or in a controlled consistency and volume to be effective.

Another category of water system systems may be classified as large movable apparatuses on wheels possessing the ability to discharge large amounts of water at high pressure out of a pivoting metal nozzle. This type of fluid dispersal system is adequate at covering large swaths of land with adequate amounts of water but there are several drawbacks. The high pressure of the system renders this system unusable for lawn and athletic venues as well as agricultural use in cattle yards and newly seeded plots or patches where delicate plants are growing, as the large amounts of water will create muddy, saturated and potentially unsanitary areas for cattle and drown or damage plants. The portability of these systems is limited because of their bulkiness and can only be moved by a motorized vehicle, making placement of the system limited to areas cleared to allow vehicles access.

An additional category of systems includes large mechanized rolling water disbursement platforms that are either attached to a central location or move freely along a preplanned route. These systems are designed to function in large acreage farms and are not portable, as they must be assembled and disassembled on location. This category delivers water through hanging tubes or pipes that mist plants from above. It is not practical for anything other than watering crops.

The final category discussed herein includes systems more akin to the instant fluid dispersal and horticultural protection systems that can be grouped into small ground based systems that are portable. These systems include the typical residential lawn dispersal system, crowd misters, or other small pivoting water dispersion devices. These are often used to water residential lawns and small gardens or cool crowds and athletes, and due to the units being ground based they cannot get the same trajectory as taller systems that cover a greater area and are not blocked by low obstacles. A water dispersion system that may be easily transported, may be adjusted to great heights, may provide coverage for large areas, and does not need to be towed to locations or mechanized for operation is vital.

When properly designed and managed, the center pivot and linear move irrigation systems may be the most efficient type of sprinkler irrigation systems. The foundation of their efficiency is the result of locating the sprinklers above the crop canopy which reduces foliage damage resulting from high pressure single streams of water distributed from below the plant material. Further they produce high instantaneous application rates all while maintaining good application uniformity. Sprinklers, such as Rotators, Spinners, and Wobblers, installed with proper distribution heights, reduce the number of water streamlets and water pressure requirements which increase the water drop size and water throw distance (zone) resulting in reducing wind drift and spray evaporation. Compared to other sprinklers available for commercial and agricultural irrigation, wobbling sprinklers operate extremely well in low pressure applications which are highly desirable as it leads to lower operating costs.

The center pivot and linear move irrigation systems were designed for large field applications where the plant material resides in the ground; however, there is a significant need to irrigate plant material in a similar fashion that reside in plastic or wood containers and/or balled and burlap (B&B) methods that reside above the ground and are mobile, as well as, small in-ground plant material plots. Typical areas where one can apply similar irrigation methods in single sprinkler head methods are garden centers, landscaping operation yards and on site applications, nursery staging and holding areas and smaller plots of land such as farming and residential vegetable and/or flower gardens. Of importance, these areas deal with plant material that is mobile, of varying heights, varying foliage textures, seasonal and for a number of reasons usually do not have hard water pipes as a means of water transport to the sprinkler.
