Abstract
A swivel connector comprises three hollow members with the first and second members rotatably connected to each other for rotation about a first axis and the second and third members rotatably connected to each other for rotation about a second axis at an angle to the first axis. The first member has adjustable members for connection to the gasoline supply and vapor return passages of a gasoline dispensing nozzle body. The third member has the gasoline supply and vapor return hoses, which are connected to the pump pedestal, connected thereto. A hollow tubular member is supported in the first and third members and extends through the second member to provide the passage for the gasoline supply within the swivel connector while the space between the inner walls of the first, second, and third members and the outer surface of the hollow tubular member provides the vapor return passage within the swivel connector.
