System And Method For Systematically Irrigating Subregions Of An Irrigation Region

US Patent:
7349763, Mar 25, 2008
Filed:
Oct 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/977915
Inventors:
Norman Ivans - Las Vegas NV, US
International Classification:
G05D 7/00, G05B 11/01, G05B 19/18, A01G 27/00, G06F 19/00
US Classification:
700284, 700 11, 700 12, 700 14, 700 56, 700 61, 239 1, 239 69, 702 5
Abstract:
A method for irrigating an irrigation region () with an irrigation unit () includes the steps of subdividing the irrigation region () into a plurality of subregions (), establishing a sequence for irrigating the subregions () based on irrigation requirements for the irrigation region (), and directing a fluid () to one or more of the subregions () using the irrigation unit () based on the sequence. The irrigation regions () can be rectangular, square, or hexagonal, and can each have non-overlapping rectangular, square or triangular, similarly-sized subregions (). The irrigation requirements can include the color of the subregions (), the elevation of one subregion () relative to another subregion () and/or other physical conditions. The sequence can be established entirely within a housing () of the irrigation unit (). The irrigation unit () can direct differing amounts of fluid () per unit of area to the subregions () and/or can direct the fluid () to one subregion () at a time.

Irrigation Unit Having A Control System And A Data Storage Unit

US Patent:
7458521, Dec 2, 2008
Filed:
Oct 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/978864
Inventors:
Norman Ivans - Las Vegas NV, US
International Classification:
B05B 17/00
US Classification:
239 1, 239 63, 239 69, 239 71, 239 67, 137 783, 700284
Abstract:
An irrigation unit () for irrigating an area () with a fluid () from a fluid source () includes a housing (), a nozzle (), one or more electronic components (), and a unit control system (). The nozzle () is directly or indirectly secured to the housing () and the nozzle () is in fluid communication with the fluid source () so that fluid () from the fluid source () is transferred to the nozzle (). The unit control system () can include an electronic processor (B) and/or an electronic storage device (C). The unit control system () is in electrical communication with the electronic components (). The unit control system () can process and/or store electronic data generated by one or more electronic components (). Further, the unit control system () can precisely control one or more electronic components ().
