Abstract

The mounting frame has for attachment of sanitary fixtures two attachment plates (7) provided with holes (9) arranged in a predetermined pattern. Base nuts (11) with threaded bolts (10) are inserted detachably into the holes (9). To attach a sanitary fixture to the threaded bolts (10), a suitable pair of holes is chosen. A vertically adjustable flush pipe (2) can be fixed in position at the desired height by stop cams (5), which are also arranged in a predetermined one-dimensional pattern. A vertically adjustable discharge elbow (12) is also mounted on the frame (20).
