Embodiment Construction

[0045] will refer to figure 1and 2 describe a first embodiment of an anchoring element for fixing a tap.

[0046] figure 1 Anchoring element 10 including base 12 is shown. The base 12 has a first through hole 14 . The first hole 14 allows a rod to be inserted, as described below. Here, the base 12 is generally C-shaped, U-shaped or horseshoe-shaped, having a central portion 16c and two arcuate arms 16a, 16b on either side of the central portion 16c. The two arms 16a, 16b and the central portion 16c lie substantially in the same main plane. The generally C-shape optimizes the support surface of the anchoring element while making it easy to pass the tap supply tube through the aperture of the mounting surface.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first hole 14 is provided in the central portion 16c.

[0048] The shape of the first hole 14 is configured such that the inclination angle of the rod can be changed. To achieve this, in this embodiment the first hole 14 is oblong. ...

Abstract

The invention relates to an anchoring element (10) for a plumbing fastener (40) in an orifice (52) in a mounting plane (50). The anchoring element (10) comprises a base (12) provided with a first through-hole (14) allowing the insertion of a stem (30) such that the stem (30) has a reference inclination (H) with respect to the anchoring element (10). The shape of the first hole (14) is configured to make it possible to modify the inclination of the stem (30) with respect to the reference inclination (H). The anchoring element (10) also comprises a return element (20) configured to return the stem (30) to the reference inclination (H). This return element (20) comprises an elastically deformable element and comprises a second through-hole (24), the base (12) and the return element (20) beingassembled such that the first and second holes (14, 24) are superposed at least in part so as to form a slot, and a smallest diameter of the slot is shorter than a smallest diameter of the first hole(14).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of sanitation. [0002] In particular, the present disclosure relates to fastening assemblies, especially for the fastening of faucets to mounting surfaces, such as faucets for sinks, washbasins or bathtubs. A mounting surface here means any planar or substantially planar part of any element (washbasin, bathtub, work surface) which has been pierced or which is suitable for piercing for the mounting of a tap. The present disclosure also relates more particularly to anchoring elements that can be used in such a fixing assembly, and methods of use of the fixing assembly of a faucet. Background technique [0003] Fixing devices of the so-called "from above" type are known which do not require any access to the underside of the mounting surface during the fixing of the tap. [0004] For example, the applicant's patent application FR 2 994 203 A1 describes a fixing device for a faucet having an anchoring element ...
