Summary

This Orbit sprinkler has a heart-shaped cam driven by (I presume) an impeller inside the sprinkler body. the cam drives an L shaped connector with two studs on the ends. The connector then saves the bar back and forth, which controls the direction of the spraying water.

My sister gave me the sprinkler when one of the studs had worn off. I took a few tries to get the tollerances just right, but I got it. Interesting to note that the original piece could have had much tougher studs but the designers chose not to. Design for failure?
