ABSTRACT:
A quick release faucet joint comprises a first circular flange provided on the rear of the faucet head with a cylindrical coupling sleeve extending rearwards therefrom, and a coupling ferrule with a second flange provided on the front thereof and having an internally threaded rear portion for securement to a water outlet pipe. A set of roughly L-shaped locking grooves, formed on the periphery of the terminal end of the coupling sleeve, engage corresponding locking pins in the coupling ferrule which protrude radially inwards from the inner periphery thereof when the coupling sleeve is inserted into and rotated within the coupling ferrule, releasably securing the two together. A spring loaded positioning rod on the first flange engages a selected positioning hole on the second flange when rotated into registry to prevent further rotation of the first flange until the position rod is manually retracted.
