## Abstract

The invention relates to a system of a support element and at least two functional elements which can be used in the sanitary sector, with the support element being able to be coupled to each of the functional elements via a system interface and the system interface having a spigot-shaped element—at the support element side—with an outwardly biased latch element projecting out of said spigot-shaped element transversely to its longitudinal axis and the functional elements each having a tubular element corresponding to the spigot-shaped element and having a cut-out for the latch element.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system of support which can be used in the sanitary sector, comprising:
a support element having a rear side and a support element side, being able to be coupled to a plurality of functional elements via a system interface and the system interface having a spigot-shaped element, at the support element side, with an outwardly biased latch element projecting out of said spigot-shaped element transversely to its longitudinal axis;
at least one functional element having a tubular element corresponding to the spigot-shaped element and having a cut-out for the latch element; and
a base element which can be fastened to a wall and to which the support element can be fastened,
wherein the support element has a toothed arrangement at its rear side which is complementary to a corresponding toothed arrangement at the base element.

### Claim 2

A system of support which can be used in the sanitary sector, comprising:
a support element having a rear side and a support element side, being able to be coupled to a plurality of functional elements via a system interface and the system interface having a spigot-shaped element, at the support element side, with an outwardly biased latch element projecting out of said spigot-shaped element transversely to its longitudinal axis;
at least one functional element having a tubular element corresponding to the spigot-shaped element and having a cut-out for the latch element; and
a base element which can be fastened to a wall and to which the support element can be fastened,
wherein the support element is screwed at the rear side to the base element.
