A dynamic counterweight mechanism for one-sided sprayers is vertically fastened to a chassis of a conventional sprayer with a fixed frame (3) so as to move up and down in relation to the frame (3). The mechanism includes a sliding frame (20) that laterally sustains a counterweight module (30). A swinging module (40) is pivotally assembled on the opposite side (23) of the sliding frame (20) and rotates around a bearing (24, 43) and in relation to the sliding frame (20). The upper end of the swinging module (40) is connected to the counterweight module (30) by a steel cable (33), which, in turn, has a counterweight block (32) that moves up and down, due to displacement of the swinging module (40). The steel cable (33) extends through a set of sheaves (50, 51, 52, 53) between the swinging module (40) and the sliding frame (20).
