Adjustable support for the forward edge of a wall supported washstand

A support stand adapted to support a wall-hung lavatory bowl of the type which includes a peripheral lip having an undersurface and which projects from the bowl along a forward edge of that bowl, the support stand comprising:

• a floor-engaging support means adapted to be disposed beneath a wall-hung lavatory bowl, said support means including a horizontal upper support leg for disposition beneath a peripheral lip of a wall-hung lavatory bowl, said upper support leg having fastener-receiving apertures defined therein;
• a horizontal support rail adapted to be disposed beneath a peripheral lip of a lavatory bowl and over said upper support leg;
• adjustable means connecting said support rail to said support leg for selectively elevating said support rail for disposing said support rail in contacting relationship with an undersurface of a lavatory bowl lip, said adjustable means including a plurality of externally threaded fasteners fixedly secured to said support rail to project downwardly therefrom into said fastener-receiving apertures, and an internally threaded nut engaged on each fastener so that a lower surface of said nut contacts an upper surface of said upper support leg immediately adjacent said fastener-receiving apertures, so that elevation of said support rail can be raised or lowered relative to said upper support leg.
