Abstract
Apparatus for injecting soil treatment into soil includes a manifold head having at least one high pressure nozzle for injecting the soil treatment into the soil and a handle having a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis. The handle comprises an upper portion having two spaced-apart tubular shafts and a lower portion having two spaced-apart tubular shafts. The tubular shafts of the lower portion are connected to the tubular shafts of the upper portion.
Claims15
Apparatus for injecting soil treatment into soil, the apparatus comprising:
- a manifold head having at least one high pressure nozzle for injecting the soil treatment into the soil;
- and
- a handle having a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis, the handle comprising an upper portion having two spaced-apart tubular shafts and a lower portion having two spaced-apart tubular shafts, the tubular shafts of the lower portion being connected to the tubular shafts of the upper portion.
Apparatus for injecting soil treatment into soil, the apparatus comprising:
- a handle having a pair of hand grips for facilitating manual manipulation of the apparatus by an operator, the hand grips being selectively moveable from a first position on the handle to a second position on the handle;
- at least one high pressure nozzle for injecting the soil treatment into the soil;
- and
- a supply of soil treatment in fluid communication with the at least one high pressure nozzle.
Apparatus for injecting soil treatment into soil, the apparatus comprising:
- a handle having an upper portion and a lower portion, the lower portion being angled relative to the upper portion;
- at least one high pressure nozzle carried by the lower portion of the handle, the at least one high pressure nozzle being adapted to inject the soil treatment into the soil;
- and
- a supply of soil treatment in fluid communication with the at least one high pressure nozzle.
Apparatus for injecting soil treatment into soil, the apparatus comprising:
- a handle;
- a manifold head carried by the handle, the manifold head having a plurality of a pressure nozzle for injecting the soil treatment into the soil and thereby define an injection site;
- and
- a kick guard extending outward from at least one side of the manifold head to block debris that may be kicked-up during the injection of soil treatment.
A high pressure injection system for injecting soil treatment into soil, the system comprising:
- a supply cart;
- a handheld portable application tool connected to the cart via a conduit defining a fluid passageway and at least one electrical connection;
- and
- a hose reel mounted on the supply cart, the hose reel comprising a spool, a mounting bracket for mounting the spool to the supply cart, and a handle for manually rotating the spool relative to the mounting bracket, the spool being rotatable relative to the mounting bracket using the handle to wind and unwind the conduit about the spool, the handle including a rotary electrical connector for feeding the electrical connection to the conduit wound about the spool.
