Abstract
A rotating sprinkler is configured with only three components without need of any other manufactured component. The three components are constituted by a base component connected to a water source, a rotating head component from which a water stream is emitted which is rotatably mounted on an element of the base component, and a gravitating hammer component pivotally mounted on the head component that causes intermittent rotary motion of the head component about a vertical rotation axis by intermittently engaging the emitted stream and providing in response a reaction force. The hammer component is configured to intercept the emitted water stream within an interior space between a deflecting surface and a ramping surface when downwardly pivoted and to urge the intercepted water stream to flow upwardly along the ramped surface and to impinge upon the deflecting surface, causing the hammer component to pivot upwardly prior to being gravitated.
