Abstract: COVERS AN IMPROVED COUPLING ARRANGEMENT FOR INTERCONNECTING FLUID EMITTING SPOUT MECHANISM TO A PLUMBING FIXTURE, SUCH AS A SINK OR LAVATORY, AFTER THE PLUMBING FIXTURE HAS BEEN OTHERWISE INSTALLED IN ITS ASSIGNED LOCATION. THE ARRANGEMENT INCLUDES TWO INTER-COUPLING MEMBERS, I.E. A SPOUT NUT AND A SPOUT BODY, WHICH ARE TO BE POSITIONED ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE DECK OF THE PLUMBING FIXTURE AND ARE TO BE COUPLED TO EACH OTHER THROUGH THE DECK OF THE PLUMBING FIXTURE SO THAT THEY MAY NOT ONLY GRIP THE SPOUT PIPE ON WHICH THE SPOUT END MAYBE ASSEMBLED BUT ALSO SO THAT THEY MAY GRIP EACH OTHER, AND THEREBY PREVENT THE SPOUT PIPE FROM BEING VERTICALLY MOVABLE WITH RESPECT TO THE DECK OF THE PLUMBING FIXTURE, WHILE PERMITTING THE SPOUT PIPE TO BE ROTATABLE ABOUT THE AXIS OR CENTERLINE OF THE SPOUT PIPE. THE SPOUT NUT HAS ONE OR ORE ARMS WITH PROJECTING FINGERS, AND THE SPOUT PIPE HAS A GROOVE IN ITS SURFACE FOR RECEIVING THE PROJECTING FINGERS.
