Abstract: Various embodiments provide for a plumbing fixture comprising a spout. The spout comprises a body with a collar on a top surface of the body and a hole extending through the collar and defining an internal surface of the collar. The spout further comprises a first camming surface formed on the internal surface. The plumbing fixture further comprises a lift knob. The lift knob comprises a head. The head comprises a front side, top side, and a bottom side. The lift knob further comprises a shaft. The shaft is axially movable within the hole and has a first end and a second end. The first end is coupled to the bottom side of the head and the second end disposed within the spout. A second camming surface is formed on the bottom side of the head. The second camming surface has a geometrically complementary surface to the first camming surface.

Abstract: A diverter seal member for a diverter structure of a tub spout structure includes a central body, a first seal extension, and a second seal extension. The central body includes a first side, a second side, and an aperture extending completely through the central body between the first side and the second side of the central body. The first seal extension extends from the first side of the central body and around a central axis that extends axially through a center of the aperture. The first seal extension includes a first extension side, a second extension side, and an extension end. The extension end of the first seal extension extends substantially perpendicularly to the first extension side and the second extension side of the first seal extension. The second seal extension extends from the second side of the central body around the central axis of the aperture.
