Abstract: A faucet assembly has a wall plate having a pair of outlet ports adapted to be connected to hot- and cold-water supplies, a faucet having an end formed with inlet ports, and an adapter. The adapter has a pair of relatively telescoping parts formed with a pair of throughgoing passages extending between the parts. One of the parts is adapted to fit with the plate over the outlet ports thereof and the other part is adapted to fit with the faucet over the inlet ports thereof. Screws braced between the parts can relatively axially telescope same steplessly.

Abstract: The mixing faucet for a washing and rinsing table comprises a faucet housing held on an opening in the table by a clamping means tightenable against the table underside. To improve the attachment to the washing and rinsing table, a mounting base equipped with a passage for the supply lines mountable and attachable to the opening or built on the opening in the table is provided and retaining and engaging means suitable for the mounting base are built in the faucet housing. Thereby the mixing faucet is slidable in the mounting base from the upper side of the washing and rinsing table and is lockable in an inserted position.
