发明名称 Faucet housing assembly
摘要 The faucet housing assembly comprises an escutcheon and an undercover plate. The undercover plate fits into the undersurface of the escutcheon forming a snap-fit engagement, there being no need for any fasteners between the undercover plate and the escutcheon. The escutcheon is secured onto a faucet with fasteners and the undercover plate is assembled into the undersurface of the escutcheon. The base section of the undercover plate includes an opening disposed on each side. A strut abuts the outside edge of each opening. Each strut engages one of a pair of mounting posts extending downward from the undersurface of the escutcheon. An arcuate lip extends from the center arched section of the undercover plate, the arcuate lip being positioned about a spout outlet. The arcuate lip forms an abutting engagement against a pair of rib members positioned about the aerator on the undersurface of the escutcheon, the rib members compressing the arcuate lip. This compression securely retains the arched center section of the undercover plate to the undersurface of the escutcheon when the base section of the undercover plate is secured against the mounting posts. The faucet housing assembly with faucet is pre-assembled and shipped as a unit.
