The outer surface of the sealing gasket 9 closely adheres to the inner wall of the fixed pipe 5. In the middle of the top end of the main nozzle 6, there is a fixed part 11 fixedly installed. On the outer surface of the storage tank 2, there is also a spacing adjustment mechanism for adjusting the movement of the movable pipe 7 along the inside of the fixed pipe 5.

[0020] By making the fixed part 11 in motion drive the movable pipe 7 to move synchronously, making the top of one side of the movable pipe 7 move along the inside of the fixed pipe 5, making the sealing gasket 9 in motion close some of the main nozzles 6, making the fixed pipe 5 cooperate with the movement of the movable pipe 7 to adjust the overall deployment length of multiple main nozzles 6 and secondary nozzles 8, making the main nozzles 6 and secondary nozzles 8 suitable for different crops, placing pesticides or fertilizers in the storage tank 2, injecting them into the fixed pipe 5 and the movable pipe 7 through the discharge pipe orifice 4, and spraying them out by the main nozzles 6 and secondary nozzles 8, it reflects the spraying range adjustment effect of the combination of the main nozzles 6 and secondary nozzles 8.
