ABSTRACT:
A faucet mounting system for positioning and supporting a faucet valve body and a rotatable receptor on a sink deck includes a stand and a bearing member. The faucet valve body is mounted in the stand above the sink deck and the bearing member is formed and adapted to be mounted on the sink deck. The bearing member has a central opening to accommodate water conduits extending from the sink deck to the valve body. The rotatable receptor moves about the valve body and is supported for rotation on the bearing member. There are cooperating elements on the bearing member and the stand for interlocking these two elements together to prevent relative rotation there between. The bearing member has arcuately spaced stops which limit rotation of the receptor on the bearing member.
