  • Patent number: 5788291
    Abstract: A detachable hose assembly for easily connecting a hose to a faucet without using a screwing motion. The detachable hose assembly is comprised of a hose member and a faucet member. The hose member is configured to be attached to a hose and has a front face and a central shaft for communication of water to the hose. The faucet member is configured to be attached to a faucet and has a front face and a central shaft for communication of water to the central shaft of the hose member. The hose member and faucet member are configured to be slidably coupled together in a first orientation to form a single central shaft so that the front faces of the hose member and the faucet member are positioned adjacent each other and the outer surfaces of the members are flush. A raised surface and a seal are positioned about the shaft so that when the hose and faucet members are coupled, the raised surface exerts a force against the seal in a direction parallel to the central shaft so that leakage is reduced.
