Abstract (en)

[origin: US6588031B2] A bath tap fitting is composed in the known way of a securing device which can be attached to a mounting plate and a movable outlet spout fitted to this. The securing device comprises a securing body which is composed of a lower part and an upper part which can be pushed onto the lower part so that it cannot turn but can be adjusted for height. An adjusting bush is axially fitted in the upper part of the securing body, which however can be turned. It has in the lower area an outer thread, with which it is screwed into a threaded hole of the lower part of the securing body. By turning the adjusting bush therefore the height of the upper part can be changed in comparison to the lower part. The upper part grips over the lower part with a skirt which is divided into segments from below by axis-parallel slits and has an outer thread there. A nut is screwed onto this outer thread which via a cam effect in each case depending on the amount of turn presses the segments of the skirt of the upper part to a greater or lesser extent against the lower part of the securing body. As a result not only the height of the upper part is fixed in comparison to the lower part, but also any play between the upper part and the lower part, which could lead to movement of the outlet spout, is completely eliminated.
