Abstract

A sink rinsing device including an accelerating nozzle attached by a flexible stem to a fitting which fits onto a sink faucet above the aerator thereof. When not in use, the stem and nozzle lie flat against the underside of the faucet, out of the path of the water emerging from the faucet. When it is desired to rinse the sink, the stem is bent to bring the nozzle underneath the aerator of the faucet. The nozzle is removably fastenable to the fitting to secure the device in this position. Water emerging from the aerator of the faucet can now enter the inlet side of the nozzle, which directs a forceful stream of water against the sides of the sink. The fitting allows the nozzle to be rotated 360 degrees.
