Abstract
A fluid dispensing nozzle has a retainer secured onto its peripheral surface of the nozzle's discharge spout. This retainer extends radially outward from the spout and is designed to engage a radially inwardly extending lip about a fill tank opening to secure the spout in the fill tank opening when the nozzle is operated in an automatic mode. The retainer is secured onto the spout by an annular groove in the spout and a retainer ring fitted in the groove. The retainer is abutted against the retainer ring and means are provided to prevent axial movement of the retainer relative to the spout once the retainer is so abutted.
