ABSTRACT:
An universal coupling is described which can be connected to the outlet of a variety of water faucets regardless of the design or cross-sectional shape of the faucet outlet. In one embodiment the universal coupling can be connected a smaller faucet outlet having a maximum outlet width of about 60% of the maximum outlet width of the largest faucet outlet to which the universal coupling can be connected. The capability of the universal coupling of this invention to be connected to such a large variety of faucet outlets regardless of the cross-sectional shape thereof enables, for example, the installer of water filters to kitchen faucets to stock just the universal coupling of this invention since it will fit most all faucets commonly found in kitchens.
