Abstract: A swing spout assembly is disclosed which has a spout having a channel extending from an inlet end to a discharge end. A radially extending groove is formed adjacent the inlet end of the spout, and a snap ring is received in the groove of the spout. A pair of glides in the form of wear washers sandwich the portion of the snap ring extending out of the groove to form a bearing sub-assembly. An escutcheon is positioned around at least part of the inlet end of the spout. A stationary body has a portion that extends into the channel of the spout and a portion extending around an outer radial periphery of the inlet end of the spout. The portion extending around the outer periphery of the inlet end and the escutcheon defining a pocket that retains the bearing sub-assembly.

Abstract: Disclosed are low-profile valve assemblies for engaging a counter top or other mounting surface having a through opening. A special collar (30) is provided which has a flange facing the outer surface (12) of the mounting surface, and a skirt that extends into the through opening (106) where the inward portion of the skirt connects to the valve body (26). This insets the valve body. 0-ring and recess structures are provided to seal the construction, and a handle (32) has an outer skirt to hide the collar.

Abstract: A sprayer seating assembly is disclosed for more securely docking a sprayer head (12) to an escutcheon (24) positioned on a countertop (14) or the like. The escutcheon has a bore (38) extending there through and a recess (40) adjacent the bore. A sprayer head is linked to a supply hose (36) and has a recess (42) adjacent a base portion (28) of the sprayer head. A flexible snap member (44) is mounted in one of the recesses (40; 42) such that it can flex at least partially into the other of the recesses when the recesses are aligned. The escutcheon forms a rest seat for the sprayer head and the flexible snap member assists in removably retaining the sprayer head against the rest seat.
