Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning, and in particular to a mounting frame assembly for a window air conditioner and a window air conditioner having the mounting frame assembly. Background Technology
[0002] In related technologies, during the installation of the mounting frame assembly onto the window frame, the user needs to move the slide bar relative to the mounting body to a suitable position so that the height of the mounting frame body matches the height of the window frame. The top and bottom ends of the mounting frame body can be fixed to the window frame.
[0003] In existing mounting frame assemblies, users move the sliding rod relative to the mounting body by directly driving it. However, since adjusting the position of the sliding rod relative to the mounting body is inconvenient after the mounting frame assembly is installed on the window frame, the user needs to adjust the length of the mounting frame body before installation. This requires multiple adjustments to the sliding rod's position based on the window frame's height, making installation between the mounting frame assembly and the window frame difficult and reducing the installation efficiency of the window air conditioner. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. Therefore, one object of the present invention is to provide a mounting frame assembly for a window air conditioner, which makes the connection between the mounting frame assembly and the window frame easier, thereby improving the ease of use of the mounting frame assembly and thus improving the installation efficiency of the window air conditioner.

[0014] In some examples of the present invention, the limiting stop edge and the inner sidewall of the guide groove define an avoidance gap extending in the length direction of the mounting body, through which the guide plate passes.
[0015] In some examples of the present invention, the guide plate is perpendicular to the mounting rod and the limiting plate, and the mounting rod and the limiting plate are parallel, with the limiting plate extending away from the mounting rod.
[0016] In some examples of the present invention, at least one end of the guide groove is provided with a mounting groove communicating with the guide groove, and the guide part is mounted on the guide groove through the mounting groove.
[0017] In some examples of the present invention, there are multiple mounting frame bodies, which are spaced apart in the second direction of the mounting frame assembly, and the mounting rods are connected between the two mounting bodies of two adjacent mounting frame bodies.

[0044] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0045] The following is for reference. Figures 1-13The following describes a mounting frame assembly 200 for a window air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The mounting frame assembly 200 can be mounted on a window frame 300, and the window air conditioner 100 can be mounted on the mounting frame assembly 200. That is, the window air conditioner 100 can be mounted on the window frame 300 via the mounting frame assembly 200. The window air conditioner 100 includes: a housing, an indoor heat exchanger component, an air conditioning fan component, an air outlet frame component, an outdoor heat exchanger component, an outdoor fan, and a compressor assembly. The housing may include a front housing, a rear housing, a bottom housing, and a top housing. The front housing may have an air inlet, and the air inlet is provided with an air conditioning return air grille filter. The rear housing has columns on both sides, and a condenser assembly can be fixed to the rear housing. A duct assembly is installed and fixed between the evaporator and the condenser, and the duct assembly consists of an indoor duct and an outdoor duct. The compressor assembly is mounted on the bottom housing of the window air conditioner 100, and the bottom housing has a condensate overflow outlet.
[0046] Furthermore, the window air conditioner 100 can have an indoor side and an outdoor side, with an air outlet on the indoor side and a heat exchange outlet on the outdoor side, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the indoor side of the window air conditioner 100 can refer to the front side of the window air conditioner 100, and the outdoor side of the window air conditioner 100 can refer to the rear side of the window air conditioner 100. Air from the outside environment can enter the window air conditioner 100 and exchange heat with the refrigerant inside. After the air entering the window air conditioner 100 completes the heat exchange with the refrigerant, the temperature of the air entering the window air conditioner 100 decreases, and the temperature of the refrigerant increases. The low-temperature air can be delivered into the user's room through the air outlet, thereby lowering the room temperature. The heated refrigerant can flow back to the outdoor side, and the refrigerant can dissipate heat on the outdoor side. Hot air can be discharged from the heat exchange port and released to the outside from the rear end of the installation space, thus preventing hot air from remaining indoors and reducing the cooling capacity of the window air conditioner 100.
[0047] like Figures 1-13 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mounting frame assembly 200 is adapted to be fixed on a windowsill, and the mounting frame assembly 200 is provided with an installation space for placing a window air conditioner 100. The mounting frame assembly 200 can be connected to at least one side beam of a window frame 300 on the windowsill to fix the mounting frame assembly 200 to the windowsill. Furthermore, by defining an installation space on the mounting frame assembly 200, at least a portion of the structure of the window air conditioner 100 can extend into the installation space. In the front-rear direction of the mounting mechanism, one end of the installation space can communicate with the interior, and the other end of the installation space can communicate with the exterior, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the front end of the installation space can be connected to the indoor space, and the rear end of the installation space can be connected to the outdoor space. The window air conditioner 100 can be installed into the installation space from the front end of the installation space.
[0048] Furthermore, in Figure 1 In the direction from back to front, the cross-sectional area of the portion of the window air conditioner 100 located within the installation space is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the portion of the window air conditioner 100 located outside the installation space. This design ensures that the window air conditioner 100 extends into the installation space, thus preventing it from protruding from the installation space and from falling off the mounting mechanism. Furthermore, the mounting frame assembly 200 is equipped with a locking mechanism and a bottom support. The locking mechanism is adapted to engage with the top of the window air conditioner 100, and the bottom support includes a protrusion adapted to engage with the bottom of the window air conditioner 100. By installing the window air conditioner 100 onto the mounting frame assembly 200, and the mounting frame assembly 200 onto the window frame 300, the window air conditioner 100 can be fixed to the window frame 300.
[0049] Furthermore, the mounting frame assembly 200 of the window air conditioner 100 includes a mounting frame body 10 and a mounting drive mechanism 70. The mounting frame body 10 includes a mounting body 20 and a slide bar 30. The mounting body 20 is used to mount the window air conditioner 100, and the slide bar 30 is disposed on the mounting body 20 and movable relative to the mounting body 20 in a first direction. The first direction of the mounting body 20 can refer to... Figure 1 The vertical direction in the middle, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first direction of the mounting body 20 can be taken as the height direction of the mounting body 20.
[0050] In some embodiments of the invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, there can be multiple mounting frame bodies 10, and the multiple mounting frame bodies 10 are spaced apart in the second direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, so as to Figure 1 Taking the embodiment shown as an example, the second direction of the mounting frame assembly 200 can refer to the width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, that is... Figure 1 In the left-right direction, that is, multiple mounting frame bodies 10 can be spaced apart in the width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200. Preferably, there can be two mounting frame bodies 10, namely a left mounting frame body 10 and a right mounting frame body 10. The left and right mounting frame bodies 10 can be spaced apart in the width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200. The width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200 can refer to... Figure 1 In the left and right directions of the mounting frame assembly 200, both the mounting body 20 of the left and right mounting frame bodies 10 define fixed rails extending in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, and the slide rod 30 can extend into the fixed rails. Furthermore, the slide rod 30 can extend in the height direction of the mounting frame body 10, and the height direction of the mounting frame body 10 can be directed... Figure 1In the vertical direction, by making the slide bar 30 movable relative to the mounting body 20 in the height direction of the mounting body 20, the height dimension of the mounting frame body 10 can be adjusted when the slide bar 30 moves, so that the mounting frame assembly 200 can be adapted to be installed on window frames 300 of different height dimensions, thereby improving the versatility of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0051] Meanwhile, the mounting drive mechanism 70 is movably disposed on the mounting body 20, and when the mounting drive mechanism 70 moves relative to the mounting body 20, it is adapted to drive the slide bar 30 to move relative to the mounting body 20 in a first direction. That is to say, the mounting drive mechanism 70 can drive the slide bar 30 to move relative to the mounting body 20 in a first direction. Figure 1 The vertical movement of the sliding rod 30 relative to the mounting body 20 is achieved by driving the mounting drive mechanism 70 to move in the opposite direction. Figure 1 The vertical direction can be adjusted upwards or downwards. Specifically, when the mounting drive mechanism 70 moves in the forward direction, it can drive the slide bar 30 to move in the vertical direction. Figure 1 The vertical direction moves upwards. When the mounting drive mechanism 70 moves in the reverse direction, the mounting drive mechanism 70 can drive the slide bar 30 to... Figure 1 The vertical movement of the drive mechanism 70 is downward. It should be understood that the forward and reverse movement directions of the drive mechanism 70 only represent opposite directions. The specific movement direction of the drive mechanism 70 can be set according to the actual situation.
[0052] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the top and bottom ends of the mounting frame assembly 200 are respectively provided with fasteners. The fastener at the top end of the mounting frame assembly 200 can fix the top end of the mounting frame assembly 200 to the top edge beam of the window frame 300, and the fastener at the bottom end of the mounting frame assembly 200 can fix the bottom end of the mounting frame assembly 200 to the bottom edge beam of the window frame 300. During the process of installing the mounting frame assembly 200 onto the window frame 300, the user can first move the end of the mounting body 20 away from the slide bar 30 (i.e., Figure 1 The lower end of the mounting body 20) or the end of the slide bar 30 away from the mounting body 20 (i.e. Figure 1 One of the upper ends of the middle slide rod 30 is connected to the window frame 300 using a fixing member. Then, the installation drive mechanism 70 is driven to move the slide rod 30 relative to the installation body 20 to a suitable position so that the height of the installation frame assembly 200 matches the height of the window frame 300. Finally, the other end of the installation body 20 away from the slide rod 30 or the other end of the slide rod 30 away from the installation body 20 is connected to the window frame 300 using a fixing member. This allows both the upper and lower ends of the installation frame assembly 200 to be connected to the window frame 300, thereby achieving the technical effect of installing the installation frame assembly 200 on the window frame 300.
[0053] By using the installation drive mechanism 70 to drive the slide bar 30 to move relative to the installation body 20, and stopping the slide bar 30 after it is installed in place at the bottom and top of the installation frame body 10 respectively, compared with the prior art, the user does not need to pre-adjust the height of the installation frame assembly 200 before fixing it to the window frame 300. Furthermore, the user can easily adjust the height of the installation frame assembly 200 after it is pre-installed on the window frame 300, making it easier to match the height of the installation frame assembly 200 with the height of the window frame 300. This improves the ease of use of the installation frame assembly 200 and reduces the connection difficulty between the installation frame assembly 200 and the window frame 300, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the window air conditioner 100.
[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the mounting drive mechanism 70 may include a mounting rod 701 and a traction rope 702. The traction rope 702 can be connected between the slide rod 30 and the mounting rod 701. When the mounting rod 701 moves relative to the mounting body 20, the traction rope 702 pulls the slide rod 30 to move in a first direction. The mounting rod 701 may extend in the width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, and the mounting rod 701 may... Figure 1 The slide bar 30 moves up and down in the middle to drive the slide bar 30 in the middle. Figure 1 The vertical movement of the mechanism is facilitated by the installation pull rod 701 in the installation drive mechanism 70, which allows the user to easily hold and operate the installation drive mechanism 70. The user can hold the installation pull rod 701 to drive the installation pull rod 701 to move.
[0055] The traction rope 702 can transmit tension between the slide bar 30 and the mounting rod 701. The tension exerted by the mounting rod 701 on the traction rope 702 can be transmitted to the slide bar 30, driving the slide bar 30 to move. Furthermore, the traction rope 702 is flexible and easy to arrange on the mounting frame assembly 200, reducing the difficulty of arranging the mounting drive mechanism 70 on the mounting frame assembly 200. Simultaneously, the traction rope 702 can change the direction of tension; during the process of the mounting rod 701 pulling the slide bar 30, the traction rope 702 can cause the mounting rod 701 and the slide bar 30 to move in different directions, thereby further improving the flexibility of arranging the mounting drive mechanism 70 on the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0056] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, a mounting rod 701 is connected between the two mounting bodies 20 of two adjacent mounting frame bodies 10. When the mounting frame body 10 includes a left mounting frame body 10 and a right mounting frame body 10, a mounting rod 701 is connected between the left mounting frame body 10 and the right mounting frame body 10. The left end of the mounting rod 701 can be connected to the left mounting frame body 10, and a traction rope 702 can be provided between the mounting rod 701 and the left mounting frame body 10. The traction rope 702 can be connected between the mounting rod 701 and the slide bar 30 of the left mounting frame body 10. The mounting rod 701 can pull the slide bar 30 of the left mounting frame body 10 to move in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200 through the traction rope 702.
[0057] Furthermore, the right end of the mounting rod 701 can be connected to the right mounting frame body 10. A traction rope 702 can be provided between the mounting rod 701 and the right mounting frame body 10. The traction rope 702 can be connected between the mounting rod 701 and the slide rod 30 of the right mounting frame body 10. The mounting rod 701 can pull the slide rod 30 of the right mounting frame body 10 to move in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200 through the traction rope 702. Further, when the mounting rod 701 moves, it can drive the slide rods 30 of the left and right mounting frame bodies 10 to move in the same direction. By connecting the mounting rod 701 between the two mounting bodies 20 of two adjacent mounting frame bodies 10, the user can simultaneously control the slide rod 30 on the left and right sides of the mounting frame assembly 200 through one mounting rod 701, further improving the ease of use of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0058] Simultaneously, by using the mounting tie rod 701 to control the sliding rods 30 on both sides of the mounting frame assembly 200, the sliding rod 30 of the left mounting frame body 10 can be moved away from the end of the mounting body 20 (i.e., Figure 1 The upper end of the slide rod 30 of the middle left mounting frame body 10 and the end of the slide rod 30 of the right mounting frame body 10 away from the mounting body 20 (i.e. Figure 1 The upper end of the slide bar 30 of the right mounting frame body 10 is set at the same height, so that the height dimension of the left mounting frame body 10 is the same as that of the right mounting frame body 10. When the mounting frame assembly 200 is fixed on the window frame 300, this setting can improve the accuracy of the connection between the mounting frame assembly 200 and the window frame 300.
[0059] In addition, by connecting the mounting rod 701 between the left mounting frame body 10 and the right mounting frame body 10, the mounting rod 701 can also be used to limit the window air conditioner 100. Specifically, when the window air conditioner 100 is installed in the installation space defined by the mounting frame assembly 200, the mounting rod 701 can be set on the outdoor side of the window air conditioner 100, and the mounting rod 701 can stop the window air conditioner 100 from moving towards the outdoor side, thereby preventing the window air conditioner 100 from falling to the outside, thus reducing the occurrence of dangerous accidents and improving the user experience of the window air conditioner 100.
[0060] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the installation drive mechanism 70 may further include: a roller 703, which is rotatably mounted on the installation body 20; a traction rope 702 can be wound around the roller 703, and both ends of the traction rope 702 are respectively connected to the installation pull rod 701 and the slide rod 30. The central axis of the roller 703 can be aligned with... Figure 1 The rollers 703 and 702 are parallel in the horizontal direction. When the traction rope 702 is wound around the circumferential surface of the rollers 703, the rollers 703 can guide the extension direction of the traction rope 702. The rollers 703 can change the direction of the traction rope 702 after it passes through the rollers 703. The tension on the traction rope 702 can complete the change of direction. When the two ends of the traction rope 702 are connected to the mounting rod 701 and the slide rod 30 respectively, the direction of the tension applied by the mounting rod 701 to the traction rope 702 is opposite to the direction of the tension applied by the traction rope 702 to the slide rod 30. By changing the direction of the tension on the traction rope 702, the movement direction of the slide rod 30 and the mounting rod 701 can be changed, thereby making the mounting drive mechanism 70 more flexibly arranged on the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0061] Taking some specific embodiments of the present invention as examples, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, in the first direction (i.e. Figure 1 (Up and down direction) When the mounting rod 701 moves away from the slide bar 30, the traction rope 702 can pull the slide bar 30 away from the mounting body 20. Furthermore, by cooperating with the roller 703 and the traction rope 702, the mounting rod 701 and the slide bar 30 can be moved in opposite directions simultaneously.
[0062] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, when the tie rod 701 is installed... Figure 1 When the traction rope 702 is pulled downwards, the tension force exerted by the traction rope 702 on the slide bar 30 is upwards. When the magnitude of the tension force exceeds the weight of the slide bar 30 itself, the tension force can drive the slide bar 30 to... Figure 1It moves upwards. When the pull rod 701 does not pull the traction rope 702, or when the tension of the pull rod 701 on the traction rope 702 is less than the weight of the slide rod 30 itself, the slide rod 30 can move upwards under its own weight. Figure 1 As the slide bar 30 moves downwards, it can drive the mounting rod 701 upwards via the traction rope 702. Therefore, the user can adjust the tension on the mounting rod 701, allowing the slide bar 30 to move upwards or downwards relative to the mounting body 20. This changes the height of the mounting frame assembly 200, making its height more suitable and improving its usability.
[0063] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-7 As shown, the end of the slide bar 30 near the mounting body 20 (i.e. Figure 1 The lower end of the sliding rod 30 can be connected to the traction rope 702, and a roller 703 can be provided at the end of the mounting body 20 near the sliding rod 30. The lower end of the sliding rod 30 can extend into the fixed rail defined by the mounting body 20, and a first connecting part can be provided at the lower end of the sliding rod 30. The traction rope 702 can be connected to the first connecting part. The connection method between the traction rope 702 and the first connecting part can include bonding, welding, binding, or wrapping, etc. Different connection methods can ensure that the traction rope 702 and the first connecting part are reliably connected together.
[0064] Furthermore, by spaced apart between the roller 703 and the first connecting part in the height direction of the mounting frame body 10, the angle between the traction rope 702 and the horizontal direction can be increased. When the traction rope 702 connects to the slide bar 30 after passing the roller 703, this arrangement can ensure that the component of the pulling force used to lift the slide bar 30 is larger, thereby reducing the pulling force required to lift the slide bar 30, and further reducing the installation difficulty of the mounting frame assembly 200 on the window frame 300.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the mounting body 20 may be provided with a guide groove 207 extending in the length direction of the mounting body 20. It should be noted that when the mounting frame assembly 200 is installed on the window frame 300, the length direction of the mounting body 20 can be used as the height direction of the mounting body 20. The mounting rod 701 may be provided with a guide part 704, which is installed in the guide groove 207 and can move relative to the guide rail along the extension direction of the guide groove 207. In the circumferential direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, the guide groove 207 may have two opposing groove walls. When the guide part 704 extends into the guide groove 207, the guide part 704 is adapted to abut against the two opposing groove walls of the guide groove 207 respectively. The guide part 704 may interfere with the two opposing groove walls of the guide groove 207. The two opposing groove walls of the guide groove 207 can guide the guide part 704. The guide part 704 can move relative to the mounting body 20 along the extension direction of the guide groove 207. The guide part 704 can drive the mounting rod 701 to move along the extension direction of the guide groove 207, so that the mounting rod 701 can move in... Figure 1 The mounting rod 701 can move vertically within the mounting frame assembly 200. Through the cooperation of the guide part 704 and the guide groove 207, the mounting rod 701 can move in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, thereby enabling the mounting frame assembly 200 to operate normally.
[0066] Furthermore, when the mounting rod 701 extends in the width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, guide portions 704 can be provided at both ends of the mounting rod 701. The left and right mounting frame bodies 10 can each be provided with guide grooves 207. The guide portions 704 at both ends of the mounting rod 701 can extend into the guide grooves 207 of the left and right mounting frame bodies 10, respectively. The guide groove 207 of the left mounting frame body 10 can guide the left end of the mounting rod 701, ensuring that the left end of the mounting rod 701 is movable in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200. Similarly, the guide groove 207 of the right mounting frame body 10 can guide the right end of the mounting rod 701, ensuring that the right end of the mounting rod 701 is movable in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0067] By having the guide portions 704 at both ends of the mounting rod 701 cooperate with the guide grooves 207 of the two mounting frame bodies 10 respectively, the guide grooves 207 of the two mounting frame bodies 10 can jointly limit the movement direction of the mounting rod 701, which can prevent the mounting rod 701 from shifting to the left or right of the mounting frame assembly 200 during movement, causing wear on the traction rope 702, thereby improving the service life of the traction rope 702.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2As shown, the guide portion 704 may include: a guide plate 705, one end of which is connected to the mounting rod 701, and the other end of which extends into the guide groove 207 from its open end. Wherein, as Figure 1 As shown, the open end of the guide groove 207 can be located near the outdoor side of the mounting frame assembly 200, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the open end of the guide groove 207 can be located near the inner side of the mounting frame assembly 200, or the open end of the guide groove 207 can be located near the indoor side of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0069] At least a portion of the structure of the guide plate 705 can extend into the guide groove 207, and the portion of the guide plate 705 extending out of the guide groove 207 can be connected to the end of the mounting rod 701. The portion of the guide plate 705 extending into the guide groove 207 can abut against the groove wall opposite to the guide groove 207. The guide groove 207 can guide the portion of the guide plate 705 extending into the guide groove 207, allowing the guide portion 704 to... Figure 1 The guide plate 705 can move in the vertical direction. The guide plate 705 can drive the mounting rod 701 to move through the part of the structure that extends out of the guide groove 207, so as to achieve the technical effect of the mounting rod 701 moving relative to the mounting body 20 in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0070] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the guide portion 704 further includes a limiting plate 706, which is connected to the other end of the guide plate 705. The other end of the guide plate 705 can guide the guide plate 705 away from the end of the mounting rod 701. Of course, in some embodiments of the present invention, the limiting plate 706 can also be set close to the end of the guide plate 705 away from the end of the mounting rod 701. The open end of the guide groove 207 can be provided with a limiting stop 209. The limiting plate 706 is located in the guide groove 207 and is adapted to cooperate with the limiting stop 209 to limit and prevent the guide portion 704 from moving out of the guide groove 207. The open end of the guide groove 207 can be located on the circumferential sidewall of the mounting body 20. Part of the structure of the circumferential sidewall of the mounting body 20 can be constructed as a limiting stop 209. After the limiting plate 706 extends into the guide groove 207, the end of the limiting plate 706 near the outdoor side of the mounting frame assembly 200 is adapted to abut against the end of the limiting stop 209 near the indoor side of the mounting frame assembly 200. Through the abutment between the limiting plate 706 and the limiting stop 209, the limiting stop 209 can restrict the movement of the limiting plate 706 toward the outdoor side of the mounting frame assembly 200, thereby restricting the movement of the mounting rod 701 toward the outdoor side of the mounting frame assembly 200. This allows the mounting rod 701 to be reliably fixed on the mounting body 20, preventing the mounting rod 701 from separating from the mounting body 20.
[0071] In some embodiments of the present invention, a clearance gap extending in the length direction of the mounting body 20 is defined between the limiting stop 209 and the inner sidewall of the guide groove 207, and the guide plate 705 passes through the clearance gap. The clearance gap can communicate with the guide groove 207, the limiting plate 706 can extend into the clearance gap, and the guide plate 705 can pass through the clearance gap and connect with the limiting plate 706. The clearance gap avoids interference between the limiting plate 706 and the mounting body 20, and between the guide plate 705 and the mounting body 20, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the mounting drive mechanism 70 and preventing its failure.
[0072] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the guide plate 705, the limiting plate 706, and the mounting rod 701 can all be vertically arranged, and the limiting plate 706 and the mounting rod 701 can be parallel. The limiting plate 706 extends away from the mounting rod 701, meaning that the limiting plate 706 can extend towards... Figure 1 The guide plate 705 is extended to the left and right in the middle. By positioning the guide plate 705 perpendicular to the mounting rod 701, the guide plate 705 can more easily extend into the guide groove 207, and the tilted guide plate 705 can be prevented from prying up the sidewall of the guide groove 207, thus avoiding damage to the guide groove 207. Furthermore, by positioning the guide plate 705 perpendicular to the limiting plate 706, and the limiting plate 706 and the mounting rod 701 parallel, the limiting plate 706 and the limiting stop 209 can be parallel, ensuring even force distribution between them and preventing excessive localized force on the limiting stop 209, which could cause damage.
[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1-5As shown, at least one end of the guide groove 207 may be provided with a mounting groove 208, which can communicate with the guide groove 207. The guide part 704 can be mounted on the guide groove 207 through the mounting groove 208. The width of the mounting groove 208 is greater than the width of the guide groove 207. Both the limiting plate 706 and the guide plate 705 can pass through the mounting groove 208. The guide plate 705 does not abut against the groove wall of the mounting groove 208, and the limiting plate 706 does not abut against the limiting stop 209. During the assembly of the mounting frame assembly 200, after the limiting plate 706 and the guide plate 705 have both passed through the mounting groove 208, the guide part 704 is moved by driving the guide part 704. The guide part 704 can move from the connection between the mounting groove 208 and the guide groove 207 into the guide groove 207. The guide plate 705 can stop in the guide groove 207 with the two groove walls opposite to the guide groove 207, and the limiting plate 706 can stop with the limiting stop edge 209. By setting the mounting groove 208 on the mounting body 20 that communicates with the guide groove 207, it can be ensured that the mounting tie rod 701 can be smoothly assembled onto the mounting body 20.
[0074] According to some embodiments of the present invention, when the window air conditioner 100 is installed on the mounting frame assembly 200, the window air conditioner 100 is adapted to abut against the mounting rod 701. By pressing the window air conditioner 100 against the mounting rod 701, the window air conditioner 100 can lock the mounting rod 701. Since the position of the mounting rod 701 cannot be moved, the slide rod 30 can not be moved relative to the mounting body 20, thereby preventing the mounting frame assembly 200 from falling off the window frame 300 due to changes in the height of the mounting frame body 10.
[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 5-7 As shown, the mounting frame assembly 200 may further include a base 60, with each mounting frame body 10 having its end away from the slide bar 30 mounted on the base 60. It should be noted that the end of the mounting frame body 10 away from the slide bar 30 may refer to the bottom end of the left mounting frame body 10 and the bottom end of the right mounting frame body 10; that is, both the bottom ends of the left and right mounting frame bodies 10 can be mounted on the base 60. The base 60 may be provided with a water outlet. The base 60 may have a receiving plate, which may be horizontally positioned. In some embodiments of the present invention, the receiving plate may also be inclined downwards towards the outdoor side of the window air conditioner 100.
[0076] Rainwater near the top area of the mounting frame assembly 200 can flow along the left mounting frame body 10, the right mounting frame body 10, the first waterproof component 201 and the second waterproof component 301 to the receiving plate. Rainwater accumulated on the receiving plate can flow out to the outdoor environment through the outlet along the surface of the receiving plate. The base 60 can prevent rainwater from flowing into the room from the lower end of the mounting frame assembly 200, thereby keeping the indoor environment clean.
[0077] Furthermore, the base 60 may also include: an outdoor side deflector 602, an indoor side baffle 603, a left baffle 604, and a right baffle 605. The outdoor side deflector 602, indoor side baffle 603, left baffle 604, and right baffle 605 are respectively connected to the edge of the receiving plate 601. In the width direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, the left baffle 604 and right baffle 605 can be spaced apart. In the thickness direction of the mounting frame assembly 200, the outdoor side deflector 602 and indoor side baffle 603 can be spaced apart. The thickness direction of the mounting frame assembly 200 can be... Figure 1 The front and rear directions are as follows, and the outdoor side deflector 602 can be set close to the outdoor environment, and the indoor side baffle 603 can be set close to the indoor environment.
[0078] The indoor side baffle 603, left side baffle 604, and right side baffle 605 can all be folded towards the mounting frame body 10, while the outdoor side guide plate 602 folds away from the mounting frame body 10. The receiving plate 601, indoor side baffle 603, left side baffle 604, and right side baffle 605 can jointly define a guide space, where rainwater can accumulate. The guide space can form an opening at the end of the base 60 where the outdoor side guide plate 602 is located. The opening formed on the base 60 can serve as a water outlet, from which rainwater can flow out of the guide space.
[0079] Furthermore, the indoor side baffle 603, left baffle 604, and right baffle 605 can prevent rainwater from flowing towards the indoor environment, thus keeping the interior clean. When rainwater flows out of the drainage space from the outlet, the outdoor side baffle 602 can guide the rainwater, allowing it to flow along the surface of the outdoor side baffle 602. The outdoor side baffle 602 can guide the rainwater to the outdoor environment, preventing excessive rainwater from accumulating at the bottom edge beam of the window frame 300 and flowing into the interior, thereby improving the sealing effect of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0080] In addition, a fastener can be provided on the base 60. The fastener on the base 60 can be used to fix the lower end of the mounting frame assembly 200 to the window frame 300. By installing the bottom ends of the left mounting frame body 10 and the right mounting frame body 10 on the base 60, the bottom ends of the left mounting frame body 10 and the right mounting frame body 10 can abut against the support plate 601. The base 60 can ensure that the bottom ends of the left mounting frame body 10 and the right mounting frame body 10 are at the same height. This can further reduce the height difference between the left and right sides of the mounting frame assembly 200, thereby making the mounting frame assembly 200 more reliable in fixing to the window frame 300.
[0081] According to some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the mounting body 20 is provided with a first waterproof component 201, which is adapted to abut against the window frame 300. Preferably, the first waterproof component 201 can be a rubber strip, which has good sealing and deformation capabilities and is easy to process. The first waterproof component 201 can extend in the height direction of the mounting frame body 10, and two first waterproof components 201 can be provided on the mounting frame assembly 200. The two first waterproof components 201 are respectively provided on the mounting body 20 of the left mounting frame body 10 and the mounting body 20 of the right mounting frame body 10. The first waterproof component 201 provided on the left mounting frame body 10 is adapted to abut against the window frame 300. The first waterproof component 201 provided on the left mounting frame body 10 can be used to seal the left side of the mounting frame assembly 200. When the external environment is in bad weather, the first waterproof component 201 can prevent rainwater, sand, wind, etc. from entering the indoor environment through the gap between the left end of the mounting body 20 of the left mounting frame body 10 and the window frame 300, thereby keeping the indoor environment clean.
[0082] Similarly, the first waterproof component 201 provided on the right mounting frame body 10 is adapted to abut against the window frame 300. The first waterproof component 201 provided on the right mounting frame body 10 can be used to seal the right side of the mounting body 20 provided on the right mounting frame body 10. When the external environment is in bad weather, the first waterproof component 201 can prevent rainwater, sand, wind and other substances from entering the indoor environment through the gap between the right end of the mounting body 20 provided on the right mounting frame body 10 and the window frame 300, thereby keeping the indoor environment clean.
[0083] Furthermore, the slide rod 30 is provided with a second waterproof component 301, which is adapted to abut against the window frame 300. Preferably, the second waterproof component 301 can be a rubber strip. The second waterproof component 301 can extend in the height direction of the mounting frame body 10, and two second waterproof components 301 can be provided on the slide rod 30, respectively located on the slide rod 30 of the left mounting frame body 10 and the slide rod 30 of the right mounting frame body 10. At the same time, the first waterproof component 201 located on the left mounting frame body 10 can be arranged parallel to the second waterproof component 301 located on the left mounting frame body 10, and the first waterproof component 201 located on the right mounting frame body 10 can be arranged parallel to the second waterproof component 301 located on the right mounting frame body 10.
[0084] The second waterproof component 301, located on the left mounting frame body 10, is adapted to abut against the window frame 300. This component seals the left end of the sliding rod 30 of the left mounting frame body 10. In adverse weather conditions, the second waterproof component 301 prevents rainwater, dust, and wind from entering the interior through the gap between the left end of the sliding rod 30 and the window frame 300, thus maintaining a clean interior environment. Similarly, the second waterproof component 301, located on the right mounting frame body 10, abuts against the window frame 300. This component seals the right end of the sliding rod 30 of the right mounting frame body 10. In adverse weather conditions, this component also prevents rainwater, dust, and wind from entering the interior through the gap between the right end of the mounting body 20 of the right mounting frame body 10 and the window frame 300, thus maintaining a clean interior environment.
[0085] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting frame assembly 200 may further include a mounting base 202 and a sliding base 302. The mounting base 202 may be mounted on the mounting body 20, and the first waterproof component 201 may be mounted on the mounting base 202. The sliding base 302 may be mounted on the mounting base 202 and is movable relative to the mounting base 202 in a first direction, that is, the sliding base 302 may... Figure 1 The second waterproof component 301 can be installed on the sliding seat 302, and can be moved vertically relative to the mounting base 202. Both the mounting base 202 of the left mounting frame body 10 and the mounting base 202 of the right mounting frame body 10 can be equipped with sliding seats 302. Assemblers can first install the second waterproof component 301 onto the sliding seat 302, and then install the second waterproof component 301 and the sliding seat 302 together onto the mounting base 202, making it easy to replace the second waterproof component 301 on the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0086] Furthermore, by driving the sliding seat 302 to move to different positions relative to the mounting seat 202, the sealing range of the second waterproof component 301 can be adjusted. The user can adjust the position of the second waterproof component 301 on the mounting frame assembly 200 according to the height of the window frame 300, thereby ensuring that the gap between the mounting frame body 10 and the window frame 300 is sealed, preventing rainwater, sand, wind, etc. from entering the indoor environment through the gap between the mounting frame body 10 and the window frame 300, thereby improving the sealing effectiveness of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0087] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting frame assembly 200 may further include a louver fixing seat 40, with a louver 401 connected between two sliding rods 30 of two adjacent mounting frame bodies 10. The louver fixing seat 40 is located below the louver 401 and defines a water receiving groove corresponding to the louver 401. When the window air conditioner 100 is mounted on the window frame 300 via the mounting frame assembly 200, the louver 401 can be located above the window air conditioner 100. The louver 401 can cover the space between the upper end of the window air conditioner 100 and the upper end of the mounting frame assembly 200, preventing rainwater, dust, wind, etc., from entering the indoor environment through this space. Furthermore, the louver 401 can be configured as a folding structure, allowing it to extend and retract in the height direction of the mounting frame assembly 200. The height of the louver 401 can be adjusted according to the height of the mounting frame assembly 200, ensuring that the louver 401 can cover the space between the upper end of the window air conditioner 100 and the upper end of the mounting frame assembly 200 regardless of the height of the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0088] Furthermore, when the mounting frame assembly 200 includes a left mounting frame body 10 and a right mounting frame body 10, a louver 401 is connected between the two sliding rods 30 of the left and right mounting frame bodies 10. The louver fixing seat 40 can be used to fix the lower end of the louver 401. By providing a water collection groove on the louver fixing seat 40, rainwater flowing downward along the louver 401 can flow into the water collection groove. The water collection groove can collect rainwater and can prevent rainwater from flowing directly along the louver 401 into the window air conditioner 100, thereby preventing damage to the window air conditioner 100.
[0089] Furthermore, a crossbeam 50 can be connected between the two mounting bodies 20 of two adjacent mounting frame bodies 10. The crossbeam 50 can be located below the louver fixing seat 40, and the rear surface of the crossbeam 50 is located behind the rear surface of the mounting body 20. The crossbeam 50 can be equipped with a locking mechanism for mounting the window air conditioner 100, and the connection of the crossbeam 50 between two adjacent mounting frame bodies 10 can strengthen the structural strength of the mounting frame assembly 200, thereby reducing the probability of damage to the mounting frame assembly 200.
[0090] The window air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the mounting frame assembly 200 of the above embodiment. The mounting frame assembly 200 is mounted on the window frame 300, and the window air conditioner 100 is mounted on the mounting frame assembly 200. That is, the window air conditioner 100 is mounted on the window frame 300 through the mounting frame assembly 200. By using the mounting drive mechanism 70 to drive the slide rod 30 to move relative to the mounting body 20, and stopping the slide rod 30 after it is installed in place at the bottom and top ends of the mounting frame body 10, the connection difficulty between the mounting frame assembly 200 and the window frame 300 can be reduced compared with the prior art, thereby improving the ease of use of the mounting frame assembly 200 and thus improving the installation efficiency of the window air conditioner 100.
