Patent ID: 8701340

Claim:
A mechanical apparatus for treating plants comprising: a. a base; b. an inner space frame armature, c. an outer space frame armature of a shape geometrically similar to said inner space frame armature and scaled larger than said inner space-frame armature; further, said inner armature being substantially contained within said outer armature, the inner space frame being scaled down in proportion to the first space frame at a ratio of about 5:4; d. an axle, said axle being supported from said base in a vertical orientation with said outer armature rotatably disposed about said axle; e. a motive source operatively coupled to said inner armature and; f. a motive source operatively coupled to said outer armature; said motive sources so constituted and configured and coupled to said respective armatures as to engender said armatures to rotate about the line of said axle in mutually opposite directions when said motive sources are energized and activated, the rotation of the armatures generating acoustic waves; further, said armatures each comprise rods constituting the space frame in the form of a set of geometric shapes including an upper and a lower right square pyramid disposed with their respective bases in parallel planes and their apexes such that a line through the apex points would be perpendicular to the planes of their bases; still further, the pyramids are mutually spaced apart and rigidly connected to each other by two rods extending from each corner of the upper pyramid to the two respective closest corners of the base of the lower pyramid.
