Abstract: A faucet handle assembly includes a mounting shank configured to be mounted to a mounting deck. A valve assembly is received within an internal chamber of the mounting shank, and the valve assembly includes a valve stem that is rotatable about a rotation axis to facilitate water flow through the valve assembly. The valve assembly further includes a valve stem adapter that is operably coupled to the valve stem. The faucet handle assembly further includes an upper handle. The upper handle includes a lever that is coupled to the valve stem adapter and the valve stem, and the lever is disposed on a first side of the rotation axis. The upper handle further includes a cover that is coupled to the valve stem adapter and disposed on an opposite second side of the rotation axis. The cover and the lever together obscure the valve stem adapter.

Abstract: A faucet spout mounting system including a faucet spout tube, an inner adapter, and a bushing. The bushing is positioned radially intermediate the outer spout tube and the inner adapter. The inner adapter and the bushing engage to push flexible arms on the bushing against the outer spout tube, thus holding the bushing in place and compensating for tolerances in the spout mounting system.

Abstract: A faucet spout includes an arm extending from an upstream portion to a downstream portion. The arm defines a longitudinal axis extending between the upstream portion and the downstream portion. A passageway is disposed in the arm, and the passageway is configured to receive water from a water source. A plurality of baffles is disposed in the passageway. The plurality of baffles defines a tortuous flow path in the passageway. An outlet is disposed substantially perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis. The outlet is configured to receive water from the passageway and deliver water from the faucet spout.
