Sprinkler system fertilizer injector

A device for allowing a user to inject liquid chemical solutions into the well pipe of a sprinkler system so that said injected chemical solutions will be carried into a pump and from thence into the sprinkler circuits, comprising:

• a. an injector tee, being attached to said well pipe of said sprinkler system, with said injector tee having a internal water passage oriented to allow the flow of water through said well pipe to flow through said injector tee;
• b. a mounting flange, being integrally formed with said injector tee, and being in the shape of a vertical cylinder extending downward from said injector tee, with the lower surface of said mounting flange opening into an interior cylindrical cavity, with the vertical surface of said cylindrical cavity being cut by female threads, and with the horizontal surface of said cylindrical cavity opening into an injection venturi passing from said cylindrical cavity to said water passage, thereby allowing fluid communication between said cylindrical cavity and said water passage;
• c. a hollow jar, with the upper portion of said jar being formed in the shape of a hollow vertical cylinder, with the outer vertical surface of said hollow vertical cylinder being formed into male threads, and being sized so that said hollow jar threads tightly into said interior cylindrical cavity of said mounting flange, with said male threads bearing tightly against said female threads;
• and
• d. means for conveying said liquid chemical solutions contained within said jar up to said injection venturi, so that as the water flowing within said water passage induces suction at said injection venturi, said chemical solutions are drawn out of said jar and injected into said water passage;
• e. said means for conveying said liquid chemical solution having a distribution valve, with an upper end and a lower end, with said upper end opening into a hollow interior cavity passing vertically thorough said distribution valve and exiting at said lower end, with said upper end being immediately adjacent to said injection venturi so that fluid passing through said distribution valve may pass through said injection venturi;
• f. a hollow suction tube, having an upper end and a lower end, with said upper end being removably attached to said lower end of said distribution valve, and with said lower end being in close proximity with the bottom of said jar;
• and
• g. means withing said distribution valve for continuously regulating the flow of said chemical solutions from zero to full flow;
• h. wherein said horizontal surface of said cylindrical cavity also opens into a vent passage passing from said cylindrical cavity to the surrounding air, thereby allowing fluid communication between said cylindrical cavity and said surrounding air, and wherein flow within said vent passage is regulated by a vent valve, with said vent valve having a pull plunger which is normally biased against a plunger seat in order to obstruct all flow through said vent passage, but which may be grasped by said user and pulled to momentarily allow flow through said vent passage so as to equalize the pressure withing said jar and said surrounding air.
