A hose hanger device for use in combination with a water timer comprises a housing defining a hose support surface for supporting a hose coiled thereon, and a receptacle sized to receive the base assembly of the water timer therein with receptacle openings corresponding to the inlet and outlet of the base assembly. An opening is defined in the front face of the housing to permit passage of the base assembly therethrough for placement within the receptacle. The receptacle is configured to support the base assembly so that an input and display module may be removably mounted on the base assembly with the module substantially flush with the front face of the housing. The receptacle supports the base assembly with its outlet fitting accessible for engaging a water hose. An angled water conduit situated within the housing is coupled between the inlet fitting of the base assembly and a conduit segment connected to a hose bib.

Hose hanger device

A hose hanger assembly includes a tubular support, at least one mount, a flange structure, and a cover structure. The tubular support defines a first end, a second end, and a storage compartment located therebetween, the first end of the tubular support defining an access opening aligned with the storage compartment. The at least one mount is attached to the second end of the tubular support. The flange structure includes (i) an inner ring member attached in fixed relation to the first end of the tubular support, (ii) an outer ring member spaced apart from the inner ring member, and (iii) and a plurality of links interconnecting the outer ring member and the inner ring member so as to define a plurality of windows, the flange structure being configured to resemble a wheel rim flange. The cover structure is movable between (i) a first position in which the cover structure is located to cover the access opening, and (ii) a second position in which the cover structure is located to expose the access opening. The cover structure possesses a facade structure that includes (i) a first portion configured to resemble a hub cap, and (ii) a second portion configured to have a plurality of protrusions each being configured to resemble a drive portion of a lug nut. The plurality of protrusions is positioned to surround the first portion.

A sprinkler apparatus comprises a spray tube configured to move between a first side position and a second side position. The sprinkler apparatus also comprises a first side adjustment mechanism and a second side adjustment mechanism. Each adjustment mechanism comprises markings indicating lesser to greater degrees of sprinkling coverage area. The sprinkler apparatus further comprises a coverage indicator component attached to the spray tube. The coverage indicator component includes at least one window defined therein. The first side adjustment mechanism and the second side adjustment mechanism are independently moveable in relation to the coverage indicator such that the markings on the first side adjustment mechanism and the second side adjustment mechanism are selectively viewable to the user through the window. The positioning of one of the markings within the window results in a related degree of sprinkling coverage area by the sprinkler apparatus.

A sprinkler apparatus comprises a sprinkler motor configured to rotate an output gear and a sprinkler tube configured to move in a repeating pattern in response to rotation of the output gear. The sprinkler apparatus further comprises a tube adapter interposed between the output gear and the sprinkler tube. The tube adapter is fixed in relation to the sprinkler tube. The tube adapter includes a first set of teeth and the output gear has a plurality of extending flexible fingers defining a second set of teeth which engage the first set of teeth. The output gear and the tube adaptor include water passages through which water advances from the sprinkler motor to the sprinkler tube. The flexible fingers on the output gear allow the second set of teeth to slide over the first set of teeth and provide a torque limiting relationship between the output gear and the tube adaptor.
