发明名称 QUICK CONNECT SHOWERHEAD
摘要 A showerhead assembly includes an adapter having a tube extending between a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end being supported by a shower arm. A fluid connector includes a ball having an outlet, a stem having an inlet, and a fluid passageway extending along a longitudinal axis between the inlet and the outlet. A spray engine is fluidly coupled to the ball of the fluid connector. A retainer body is supported by the stem of the fluid connector and includes a radially inwardly facing engagement surface. A collet is operably coupled to the retainer body and is configured to be concentrically received intermediate the adapter and retainer body. The collet includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced fingers supporting radially extending teeth configured to engage the adapter.

主权项 1. A showerhead assembly comprising: an adapter including a tube extending between a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end being supported by a shower arm; a fluid connector including a ball having an outlet, and a stem having an inlet, a fluid passageway extending along a longitudinal axis between the inlet and the outlet; a spray engine fluidly coupled to the outlet of the fluid connector; a retainer body supported by the stem of the fluid connector and including a radially inwardly facing engagement surface; a collet operably coupled to the retainer body and configured to be concentrically received intermediate the adapter and the retainer body, the collet including a plurality of circumferentially spaced fingers supporting radially extending teeth to engage the adapter; a cover concentrically receiving the collet; and wherein distal axial movement of the cover moves the collet relative to the retainer body from a first position to a second positon, in the first position the engagement surface of the retainer body radially restraining the fingers of the collet from moving radially outwardly, and in the second position a radial clearance defined between the engagement surface of the retainer body and the fingers of the collet, thereby allowing the fingers to move radially outwardly.
