ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for mounting a wall hung laundry tub 10 or the like comprising a conventional mounting plate 16 secured to the wall 12 which is engageable with a ledge 14 formed near the top of the tub and a pair of side fillers 20 extending between the rear of the tub 18 and the wall which cover the plumbing access region behind the tub and maintain the spatial distance between the bottom of the tub and the wall to prevent the tub from cantilevering toward the wall. The side filler comprises a cover portion 22 and a load bearing portion 24 interconnected by structure defining a fold line 50 about which the portions are bent into a 90.degree. or L-shaped configuration. The side filler is constructed from a plastic material such as polypropylene and the interconnection is formed by a relatively narrow bridging section 50a defining a living hinge that enables the side filler to be folded along the fold line without fracturing or damaging the interconnecting structure. The load bearing portion includes a plurality of reinforcing ribs 34, triangular in cross-section, defining longitudinal axes that intersect the tub support wall at an angle of substantially 90.degree..
