ADJUSTABLE NUT FOR FAUCET INSTALLATION
20220228622 · 2022-07-21 ·

A faucet mounting structure includes a threaded pipe and a threaded lock nut. The quick tighten and release adjustable lock nut includes a separate upper main body and a lower main which snap fit together. The upper main body includes downward extending lugs with inward facing threads which are urged against the outward facing threads of a faucet pipe to hold the pipe and thus, hold the faucet in a fixed position on a counter top. The downward extending lugs are captured in canted arcuate recesses in the lower main body. The canted arcuate wedge shaped side wall ramps biases the threaded lugs outward decreasing the diameter of the inner bore and pressing against the pipe threads as the lower main body is rotated clockwise with respect to the upper main body enabling the lock nut to slide upward over the threaded shank of the faucet until abutting the top portion of the threaded faucet pipe whereby rotating the lock nut causes cooperative engagement between the threaded lugs of the lock nut and the threaded faucet pipe tightening the lock nut threads around the threaded pipe.
