ABSTRACT:
A faucet assembly including a spigot having a passageway therethrough is provided. One end of the spigot is open for exit of fluid and the other end is adapted to be rotatably connected to one end of a stationary fitting. The other end of the fitting is adapted to be removably connected to a fluid source. The fitting has a passageway therethrough. A valve is provided and is operable upon rotation of the spigot to a predetermined angular degree relative to the fitting to open and close a flow path for flow of fluid between the fitting and spigot and consequently between a source of fluid and the open exit end of the spigot. Seals are provided on the fitting and spigot to prevent leakage of fluid in the open and closed positions of the valve and to thereby restrict fluid flow.
