Abstract

See full text

A faucet handle connector that securely attaches a grip of a faucet handle to a valve apparatus for regulating the flow rate and/or temperature of water through a faucet spout. The faucet handle connector provides a structure for convenient attachment of the faucet handle to the valve apparatus. In addition, the faucet handle connector attaches the faucet handle to the valve apparatus in a manner that conceals the faucet handle connector from a user to improve the aesthetic characteristics of the faucet and to reduce the number of parts required for assembly. Thus, the faucet handle connector attaches the faucet handle to the valve apparatus without the use of a screw or any other observable fastener, and a separate cover or similar structure is not required to hide the connector.
