Abstract
A rotary sprinkler is provided having a stationary base with a water inlet for attachment to a conventional garden hose and a main housing operatively mounted on the base for rotation about a vertical axis. A turret assembly comprising a turret housing is operatively mounted on the main housing for concomitant rotation therewith during operation. The turret housing has an outer surface, a generally cylindrical inner surface, and a tapered inner surface. A plurality of nozzle interface extensions are attached to the outer surface and extend radially outwardly therefrom on an axis generally perpendicular to the tapered inner surface. A plurality of outwardly extending ribs are also attached to the outer surface of the turret housing to facilitate the user rotating the turret housing relative the main housing. A plurality of nozzles are seated in the nozzle interface extensions. Water discharged from the nozzles is deflected by a deflector slidingly disposed on the turret housing. The sprinkler operates quietly and produces a spray of water that will not damage delicate flowers or plants.
