Abstract
A coupling having an extending repositionable discharge tube for engagement with a discharge hose is mechanically lockably attachable to either of two different conventional waste water discharge outlets mounted on a recreational vehicle. Each of the waste water discharge outlets includes a set of four equiangularly spaced dogs and the set of dogs on each discharge outlet is differently configured. The coupling includes a different set of locking slots disposed at each end for receiving and lockingly engaging a corresponding one of the two sets of dogs. The discharge tube is relocatable to extend from one end of the coupling to permit engagement of the set of slots in the other end of the coupling with the set of dogs corresponding with the discharge outlet.
