Abstract:
A mobile agricultural machine has a valve controlled to apply liquid material to a field. An application assembly defines a conduit from the valve to a distal application tip. The application assembly includes a distal conduit section that has an inner diameter that is smaller than an inner diameter of a more proximal conduit section, that is closer to the valve, than the distal tip of the application assembly.

Claim (Index 20):
A mobile agricultural machine, comprising:\n a ground engaging element that carries the machine over a field; a valve, having an inlet end configured to be connected to a source of liquid, under pressure, to be applied to the field and an outlet end, the valve being controlled, to be opened and closed, with a pulse width modulated control signal; and an application assembly having a proximal end connected to the outlet end of the valve and having a distal end through which the liquid passes to be applied to the field, the application assembly defining a conduit between the proximal end and the distal end, and having a first hose section with a first inner diameter defining a first section of the conduit and a second hose section, with a second inner diameter, smaller than the first inner diameter, defining a second section of the conduit distal of the first section of the conduit and having an orifice member disposed ion a distal tip of the second hose section, the orifice member defining an orifice with an inner diameter that remains fixed regardless of whether the valve is opened or closed.
