[0040] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0041] The following describes the mounting mechanism 100 of an integrated air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, an integrated air conditioner mounting mechanism 100 is provided. The integrated air conditioner 200 is mounted on a windowsill having a window frame 300 . The integrated air conditioner mounting mechanism 100 includes: a fixing component 1 , a moving component 2 , and a positioning component 3 .

[0043] The fixing component 1 is used to support the integrated air conditioner 200 and is suitable for cooperating with the bottom of the window frame 300 to be positioned and installed on the window frame 300. By setting the fixing component 1 to cooperate with the bottom of the window frame 300, a position is provided for fixing the integrated air conditioner 200, which facilitates the installation of the integrated air conditioner 200.

[0044] The movable assembly 2 is movably coupled with the fixed assembly 1. The upper end of the movable assembly 2 is coupled with the upper portion of the window frame 300 to position the movable assembly on the window frame 300. A space for the integrated air conditioner 200 is defined between the fixed assembly 1 and the movable assembly 2. By arranging the upper end of the movable assembly 2 to mate with the upper portion of the window frame 300, the coupling between the mounting mechanism 100 and the window frame 300 is further enhanced on the basis of the coupling between the fixed assembly 1 and the bottom of the window frame 300, thereby making the connection between the mounting mechanism 100 and the window frame 300 more stable. The movable assembly 2 is movably coupled with the fixed assembly 1. The upper end of the movable assembly 2 can be moved to different positions, thereby allowing the mounting mechanism 100 to adapt to window frames 300 of different sizes, thereby improving the adaptability of the mounting mechanism 100.

[0045] Positioning assembly 3 is provided on either fixed assembly 1 or movable assembly 2. Positioning assembly 3 has a locked state and an unlocked state. When locked, positioning assembly 3 cooperates with movable assembly 2 to restrict the displacement of movable assembly 2. When unlocked, movable assembly 2 can move freely relative to fixed assembly 1. By providing positioning assembly 3 to control the state of movable assembly 2, the present invention facilitates adjustment of mounting mechanism 100 and improves the user experience.

[0046] For example, the positioning assembly 3 is provided on the fixed assembly 1. When the positioning assembly 3 is in the locked state, the positioning assembly 3 cooperates with the movable assembly 2, the movement of the movable assembly 2 is restricted, and the movable assembly 2 and the fixed assembly 1 are relatively stationary. When the positioning assembly 3 is in the unlocked state, the movement of the movable assembly 2 is not restricted, and the movable assembly 2 can move freely relative to the fixed assembly 1, thereby adjusting the overall size of the mounting mechanism 100 to accommodate window frames 300 of different sizes. Of course, the positioning assembly 3 can also be provided on the movable assembly 2. The effects of providing the positioning assembly 3 on the movable assembly 2 and on the fixed assembly 1 are basically the same, and will not be elaborated here.

[0047] Positioning assembly 3 includes an obstruction member 5 that extends into the placement space. The integrated air conditioner is provided with a receiving groove 202. When positioning assembly 3 is in the locked state, receiving groove 202 accommodates obstruction member 5. The provision of obstruction member 5 further enhances the functionality of positioning assembly 3 in adjusting the state of movable assembly 2, while reducing the number of components. The present invention provides obstruction member 5 to prevent integrated air conditioner 200 from being placed in the placement space when positioning assembly 3 is in the unlocked state, thereby preventing integrated air conditioner 200 from being placed on an unstable mounting mechanism 100, thereby avoiding danger and improving safety. For example, the integrated air conditioner 200 is placed in the placement space from front to back, the receiving slot 202 on the integrated air conditioner 200 is open to the rear side, and the obstacle 5 extends into the placement space. Because the integrated air conditioner 200 is installed in the placement space, the obstacle 5 hinders the installation of the integrated air conditioner 200, making it impossible for the integrated air conditioner 200 to be installed in place in the placement space. For example, the integrated air conditioner 200 cannot fit the surface of the installation mechanism 100. Only when the positioning component 3 is in the locked state, such as Figure 2 As shown, at this time, the positioning component 3 limits the movement of the movable component 2, the movable component 2 is stationary relative to the fixed component 1, and the entire installation mechanism 100 is relatively stable. When the integrated air conditioner 200 is installed in the placement space, the obstacle 5 moves backward for a distance so that the accommodating groove 202 on the integrated air conditioner 200 can accommodate the obstacle 5. The obstacle 5 cannot cause any obstruction to the integrated air conditioner 200, and the integrated air conditioner 200 is smoothly installed in place.

[0048] According to the mounting mechanism 100 of the integrated air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present invention, the obstacle 5 is provided so that the integrated air conditioner 200 can be placed in the placement space only when the mounting mechanism 100 is stable, thereby improving safety.

[0049] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the positioning assembly 3 includes a positioning member 6, which is movably mounted on the fixed assembly 1. The positioning member 6 engages or disengages with the movable assembly 2 to lock or release the movable assembly 2. By providing the positioning member 6, the state of the movable assembly 2 can be switched quickly and conveniently. When the positioning member 6 engages with the movable assembly 2 to lock the movable assembly 2, the movable assembly 2 remains stationary relative to the fixed assembly 1. When the positioning member 6 disengages from the movable assembly 2 to release the movable assembly 2, the movable assembly 2 can move freely relative to the fixed assembly 1, thereby adjusting the overall size of the mounting mechanism 100.

[0050] For example, the positioning member 6 is a cam member, which is eccentrically rotatably provided on the fixed component 1. The cam member is rotated so that the cam member rests on the movable component 2 to limit the movement of the movable component 2; or, the positioning member 6 is a positioning column, which is movably provided on the fixed component 1. The positioning column is moved so that the positioning column is inserted into the movable component 2 to limit the movement of the movable component 2.

[0051] In some specific embodiments, when the positioning member 6 engages with the movable assembly 2 to lock the movable assembly 2, the obstacle 5 is movable; when the positioning member 3 separates from the movable assembly 2 to release the movable assembly 2, the obstacle 5 cannot be moved. By setting the obstacle 5 to be movable only when the positioning member 6 engages with the movable assembly 2, the integrated air conditioner 200 can be installed in the placement space only after the mounting mechanism 100 is stabilized, thereby achieving safe installation of the integrated air conditioner 200. When the user installs the mounting mechanism 100 on the window frame 300, the positioning member 6 is first moved to engage with the movable assembly 2, so that the movable assembly 2 is restricted to the fixed assembly 1 and cannot move. Then, the obstacle 5 is moved to a position corresponding to the receiving slot 202, so that the obstacle 5 cannot hinder the installation of the integrated air conditioner 200 in the placement space.

[0052] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, in other specific embodiments, the obstacle 5 is disposed on the side wall of the positioning member 6 facing the placement space. The positioning member 6 drives the obstacle 5 to move synchronously. By providing the positioning member 6 to drive the obstacle 5 to move synchronously, the position of the obstacle 5 changes simultaneously with the movable positioning member 6 adjusting the state of the movable assembly 2, simplifying the operation steps and improving the user experience. When the movable positioning member 6 causes the positioning member 6 to engage with the movable assembly 2, the obstacle 5 moves synchronously and can be moved to the position corresponding to the receiving slot 202, eliminating the need to move the obstacle 5 separately.

[0053] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, specifically, the positioning member 6 and the obstacle member 5 are integrally formed. By arranging the positioning member 6 and the obstacle member 5 to be integrally formed, the number of parts is reduced and the installation steps are reduced.

[0054] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6As shown, in some other specific embodiments, the positioning assembly 3 further includes a fixing member 7, which is fixed to the fixed assembly 1. The positioning member 6 is movably provided on the fixing member 7. The positioning member 6 contacts the mobile assembly 2 to position the mobile assembly 2 by friction. By providing the positioning member 6 and positioning the mobile assembly 2 by friction, the controllability of the installation mechanism 100 is improved. The mobile assembly 2 and the fixed assembly 1 are movable and coordinated, and the mobile assembly 2 and the fixed assembly 1 can move relative to each other. The fixing member 7 is provided on the fixed assembly 1, and the positioning member 6 is provided on the fixing member 7. When the mobile assembly 2 needs to be fixed relative to the fixed assembly 1, the movable positioning member 6 causes the positioning member 6 to contact the mobile assembly 2. Under the action of the friction force of the positioning member 6 on the mobile assembly 2, the mobile assembly 2 cannot move freely relative to the fixed assembly 1, and the mobile assembly 2 is fixed to the fixed assembly 1.

[0055] Specifically, the positioning assembly 3 also includes a clamping block (not shown), which is provided between the positioning member 6 and the mobile assembly 2. The positioning member 6 moves to adjust the gap between the clamping block and the mobile assembly 2. By providing the clamping block between the positioning member 6 and the mobile assembly 2, the friction force is increased, thereby further improving the control ability of the positioning member 6 over the mobile assembly 2. When the gap between the clamping block and the mobile assembly 2 is zero, the clamping block is completely attached to the mobile assembly 2. However, the positioning member 6 can also make the clamping block and the mobile assembly 2 fit more closely, thereby increasing the friction force between the clamping block and the mobile assembly 2, and further ensuring the relative fixation of the mobile assembly 2 and the fixed assembly 1. For example, the material of the clamping block is rubber, which further improves the friction force.

[0056] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, more specifically, the positioning member 6 includes a cam portion 8 and a handle portion 9 .

[0057] The cam portion 8 is eccentrically rotated on the fixing member 7, and the cam portion 8 contacts the pressing block. The handle portion 9 cooperates with the cam portion 8 to drive the cam portion 8 to rotate. The present invention controls the rotation of the cam portion 8 by setting the handle portion 9, which is convenient for controlling

[0058] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the obstacle 5 is disposed at the end of the handle 9 away from the cam 8. By disposing the obstacle 5 at this end of the handle 9 away from the cam 8, the obstacle 5 can more easily block the installation of the integrated air conditioner 200, preventing the obstacle 5 from accidentally entering the receiving groove 202, thereby improving safety. It will be understood that the cam 8 is eccentrically rotatably disposed on the fixing member 7, the rotation axis of the cam 8 is disposed on the cam 8, and the obstacle 5 is disposed at the end of the handle 9 away from the cam 8. This keeps the obstacle 5 away from the rotation axis, provides a larger space for the obstacle 5 to move, and prevents the obstacle 5 from accidentally entering the receiving groove 202.

[0059] In other embodiments, the positioning member 6 is pivotally mounted on the fixed assembly 1. When the positioning assembly 3 is in the locked state, the positioning member 6 is attached to the fixed assembly 1; when the positioning assembly 3 is in the active state, the positioning member 6 is at a set angle to the fixed assembly 1. The present invention provides a sharp contrast between the positioning member 6 in the locked state and the active state, thereby clearly notifying the user of the current state of the positioning member 6. This prevents the user from proceeding to the next operation without first switching the positioning member 6 to the locked state, thereby improving safety. In the prior art, the positioning member 6 is attached to the fixed assembly 1 in both the locked and active states, making it difficult for the user to notice the positioning member 6. This results in the user being unable to immediately determine the current state of the positioning member 6, which can pose a certain risk. The present invention provides a set angle between the positioning member 6 and the fixed assembly 1 in the active state, making the positioning member 6 prominent and eye-catching, allowing the user to notice the positioning member 6 and prompting the user to switch the state of the positioning member 6.

[0060] Specifically, the range of the setting angle is 30 to 60 degrees, and by setting the setting angle to 30 to 60 degrees, the positioning member 6 is made prominent and eye-catching. For example, the setting angle is 30 degrees; or, the setting angle is 45 degrees; or, the setting angle is 60 degrees.

[0061] More specifically, the angle is set to a range of 45 to 50 degrees, for example, 45 degrees, 47 degrees, or 50 degrees.

[0062] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, some embodiments further include a clamping assembly 4, which cooperates with the upper end of the moving assembly 2. The clamping assembly 4 includes: a fixing seat 41, a mounting portion 42, a stop portion 43, a movable part 44 and a reset part 47.

[0063] The fixing seat 41 is connected to the moving assembly 2. The mounting portion 42 and the stop portion 43 are respectively provided on the fixing seat 41.

[0064] The movable member 44 is movably mounted on the mounting portion 42. The movable member 44 and the abutting portion 43 are adapted to abut against opposite sides of the window frame 300 to position the mounting mechanism 100 thereon. The present invention improves the convenience of mounting the mounting mechanism 100 by providing the movable member 44 and the abutting portion 43 to abut against the window frame 300 and allowing the movable member 44 to move relative to the abutting portion 43. The movable member 44 is movable relative to the stop portion 43. When installing the mounting mechanism 100, the movable member 44 is adjusted away from the stop portion 43, leaving a large gap between the movable member 44 and the stop portion 43, facilitating movement of the movable member 44 and the stop portion 43 to opposite side walls of the upper portion of the window frame 300. After the movable member 44 and the stop portion 43 have moved to opposite side walls of the upper portion of the window frame 300, the movable member 44 is adjusted so that the movable member 44 approaches the side walls of the upper portion of the window frame 300. The stop portion 43 and the movable member 44 abut against the opposite side walls of the upper portion of the window frame 300, thereby securing the mounting mechanism 100 relative to the window frame 300. When disassembling the mounting mechanism 100, the movable member 44 is adjusted away from the stop portion 43, leaving a large gap between the movable member 44 and the stop portion 43, allowing the mounting mechanism 100 to move relative to the window frame 300.

[0065] For example, the stop portion 43 and the movable member 44 are arranged front to back, with the movable member 44 located in front of the stop portion 43. The movable member 44 moves rearward to approach the stop portion 43. When the mounting mechanism 100 is mounted on the window frame 300, the movable member 44 abuts against the upper front wall of the window frame 300, and the stop portion 43 abuts against the upper rear wall of the window frame 300, thereby securing the mounting mechanism 100 to the window frame 300.

[0066] The reset member 47 cooperates with the movable member 44 and the mounting portion 42 respectively. The reset member 47 applies a force to the movable member 44, and the force causes the movable member 44 to have a tendency to move away from the stop portion 43. By setting the reset member 47, the movable member 44 that is not against the window frame 300 is automatically moved away from the stop portion 43, leaving space for the window frame 300 to move between the stop portion 43 and the movable member 44, making it convenient for the user to clamp the clamping assembly 4 on the window frame 300. During the transportation of the installation mechanism 100, the movable part 44 may move due to its own gravity, and the movable part 44 may always be attached to the stop portion 43, resulting in that when the clamping assembly 4 is moved to the window frame 300 position, the movable part 44 hinders the window frame 300 from extending into the clamping assembly 4, causing inconvenience for the user to install. At the same time, it can be understood that the clamping assembly 4 cooperates with the upper end of the movable assembly 2, and the clamping assembly 4 is in a higher position during the installation process. It is inconvenient for the user to adjust the movable part 44, which further increases the difficulty of installation. The present invention provides a reset part 47 to make the movable part 44 automatically move away from the stop portion 43, providing space for the window frame 300 to extend, thereby facilitating user installation.

[0067] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the movable member 44 specifically includes a base portion 45 and an adjusting member 46 detachably mounted on the base portion 45. The adjusting member 46 abuts against the window frame 300 to prevent damage to the window frame 300. For example, the adjusting member 46 is made of rubber, which has a certain elasticity and prevents scratches on the window frame 300. Furthermore, the detachable mounting of the adjusting member 46 on the base portion 45 facilitates replacement of the adjusting member 46. If damaged, the adjusting member 46 can be easily replaced with a new one.

[0068] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, more specifically, there are multiple adjusting members 46, which are detachably arranged in sequence in a direction away from the base portion 45. By detachably arranging the multiple adjusting members 46 in a direction away from the base portion 45, the clamping assembly 4 can adapt to window frames 300 of different thicknesses, thereby improving the adaptability of the installation mechanism 100. The user can adjust the number of adjusting members 46 according to the thickness of the window frame 300. For example, if the window frame 300 is thicker, the number of adjusting members 46 can be reduced, and if the window frame 300 is thinner, the number of adjusting members 46 can be increased.

[0069] like Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the fixed assembly 1 includes a fixed rail 101 , and the movable assembly 2 includes a movable rail 201 , and the fixed rail 101 and the movable rail 201 are movable and matched.

[0070] Specifically, there are two fixed rails 101, and the two fixed rails 101 are arranged on both sides of the installation mechanism 100. There are two movable rails 201, and the two movable rails 201 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two fixed rails 101. Space is placed at the restricted position between the two fixed rails 101 and the two movable rails 201 to match the integrated air conditioner 200. By setting two fixed rails 101 and two movable rails 201 to cooperate, the stability of the installation mechanism 100 is improved.

[0071] like Figure 3 、 Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting mechanism 100 of the integrated air conditioner further includes a bottom fastening assembly 10, which is disposed at the bottom of the fixing assembly 1. The bottom fastening assembly 10 is used to support the integrated air conditioner 200 and is suitable for cooperating with the bottom of the window frame 300 to be positioned and installed on the window frame 300. The mounting mechanism 100 is fixed to the bottom of the window frame 300 by providing a bottom fastening portion 12. The mounting mechanism 100 is fixed to the bottom of the window frame 300. On the basis of the upper fastening assembly fixing the mounting mechanism 100 to the upper part of the window frame 300, the stability of the mounting mechanism 100 is further improved.

[0072] like Figure 3 、 Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom fastening assembly 10 includes: a supporting portion 11 and a bottom fastening portion 12 .

[0073] The support portion 11 is adapted to cooperate with the integrated air conditioner 200 to support the integrated air conditioner 200. The bottom fastening portion 12 is provided on the support portion 11 and is adapted to cooperate with the bottom of the window frame 300 to be positioned and installed on the window frame 300.

[0074] The bottom fastening portion 12 includes an abutment plate 121 and an abutment member (not shown). The abutment plate 121 is fixed to the support portion 11. The abutment member is movable relative to the abutment plate 121. The abutment member and the abutment plate 121 respectively abut against opposite sidewalls of the bottom of the window frame 300. By providing the abutment member and the abutment plate 121 to abut against the window frame 300, the mounting mechanism 100 is secured to the window frame 300, improving its stability. The abutment member is movable relative to the abutment plate 121. When installing the mounting mechanism 100, the abutment member is adjusted away from the abutment plate 121, leaving a large gap between the abutment member and the abutment plate 121, facilitating their movement to opposite sidewalls of the bottom of the window frame 300. After the abutment member and the abutment plate 121 have moved to opposite sidewalls of the bottom of the window frame 300, the abutment member is adjusted so that the abutment member is closer to the sidewalls of the bottom of the window frame 300. The abutment plate 121 and the abutment member abut against the opposite sidewalls of the bottom of the window frame 300, securing the mounting mechanism 100 relative to the window frame 300. When disassembling the mounting mechanism 100, the abutment member is adjusted away from the abutment plate 121, leaving a large gap between the abutment member and the abutment plate 121, allowing the mounting mechanism 100 to move relative to the window frame 300.

[0075] For example, the abutment plate 121 and the abutment member are arranged front to back, with the abutment member located in front of the abutment plate 121 and moving rearward to approach the abutment plate 121. When the mounting mechanism 100 is mounted on the window frame 300, the abutment member abuts against the front side wall of the bottom of the window frame 300, and the abutment plate 121 abuts against the rear side wall of the bottom of the window frame 300, thereby securing the mounting mechanism 100 to the window frame 300.

[0076] like Figure 3 、 Figure 8 As shown, specifically, the bottom fastening portion 12 further includes a bottom frame member 123 . The bottom frame member 123 is connected to the fixing rail 101 , and the stop plate 121 is provided on the bottom frame member 123 .

[0077] like Figure 3 、 Figure 8As shown, in some specific embodiments, the bottom fastening portion 12 further includes a fixed plate 124, which is fixed to the support portion 11. The abutment member includes a clamping plate (not shown) and a rotating member 1222. The rotating member 1222 is rotatably provided on the fixed plate 124. The rotating member 1222 is connected to the clamping plate to push the clamping member to move relative to the fixed plate 124 during rotation. The clamping plate and the abutment plate 121 abut against the window frame 300. By providing the rotating member 1222 to push the clamping plate, the clamping plate and the abutment plate 121 abut against the window frame 300, which facilitates the user to control the bottom fastening assembly 10 and facilitates the installation of the mounting mechanism 100. The fixed plate 124 is fixed to the support portion 11, and the abutment plate 121 is fixed to the support portion 11. The distance between the fixed plate 124 and the abutment plate 121 is fixed. The clamping plate is located between the fixed plate 124 and the stop plate 121 . The rotating member 1222 rotates on the fixed plate 124 to move itself. The moving rotating member 1222 pushes the clamping plate 124 to move relative to the fixed plate 124 .

[0078] For example, the fixed plate 124 is arranged in front of the stop plate 121, the rotating member 1222 is rotatably arranged on the fixed plate 124, and the clamping plate is arranged at the rear end of the rotating member 1222. The clamping plate is between the fixed plate 124 and the stop plate 121. The rotating member 1222 rotates to move itself forward, and the clamping plate is driven by the rotating member 1222 to move forward together. The rotating member 1222 rotates to move itself backward, and the clamping plate is pushed by the rotating member 1222 to move backward together. When the mounting mechanism 100 is mounted on the window frame 300, the rotating member 1222 rotates to move itself forward, the clamping plate moves forward, the distance between the clamping plate and the stop plate 121 increases, and the larger space between the clamping plate and the stop plate 121 makes it easy for the bottom of the window frame 300 to enter between the clamping plate and the stop plate 121, making it convenient for the mounting mechanism 100 to be mounted on the window frame 300; when the clamping plate and the stop plate 121 move to the two side walls of the bottom of the window frame 300, the rotating member 1222 rotates to move itself backward, and the clamping plate is pushed to move backward together with the rotating member 1222, the distance between the clamping plate and the stop plate 121 decreases, and the clamping plate continues to move backward until the clamping plate stops at the front side wall of the bottom of the window frame 300; When the mechanism 100 is installed on the window frame 300, the clamping plate stops at the front side wall surface of the bottom of the window frame 300, and the stop plate 121 stops at the rear side wall surface of the bottom of the window frame 300. The clamping plate and the stop plate 121 cooperate to clamp the bottom of the window frame 300. The cooperation between the clamping plate and the stop plate 121 fixes the installation mechanism 100 on the window frame 300; when the installation mechanism 100 is removed from the window frame 300, the rotating part 1222 rotates to move itself forward, and the clamping plate is driven forward by the rotating part 1222, and the clamping plate moves away from the stop plate 121. The gradually increasing space between the clamping plate and the stop plate 121 allows the installation mechanism 100 to move relative to the window frame 300, thereby facilitating the removal of the installation mechanism 100 from the window frame 300.

[0079] Specifically, the rotating member 1222 is a bolt, which is threadedly connected to the fixing plate 124 .

[0080] Optionally, a flexible member is further provided on the clamping plate, and the flexible member is provided to clamp the window frame 300 and protect the window frame 300. For example, the flexible member is made of rubber, and the window frame 300 is protected by utilizing the properties of rubber.

[0081] like Figure 3 、 Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting mechanism 100 of the integrated air conditioner further includes a locking mechanism 20, which is provided on the fixed rail 101. The locking mechanism 20 is located below the clamping assembly 4, and the locking mechanism 20 is suitable for cooperating with the integrated air conditioner 200 to position the integrated air conditioner 200. Positioning the integrated air conditioner 200 by setting the locking mechanism 20 facilitates the connection between the integrated air conditioner 200 and the mounting mechanism 100, improves the connection stability between the integrated air conditioner 200 and the mounting mechanism 100, and improves the user experience. The support part 11 cooperates with the integrated air conditioner 200 to support the integrated air conditioner 200, and the locking mechanism 20 is arranged on the fixed rail 101 and cooperates with the integrated air conditioner 200 to position the integrated air conditioner 200. By setting the locking mechanism 20, the integrated air conditioner 200 is positioned on the basis of the support part 11 supporting the integrated air conditioner 200. The integrated air conditioner 200 is firmly positioned on the mounting mechanism 100 under the dual positioning of the support part 11 and the locking mechanism 20, thereby improving the connection stability between the mounting mechanism 100 and the integrated air conditioner 200.

[0082] like Figure 3 、 Figure 7As shown, specifically, the mounting mechanism 100 of the integrated air conditioner further includes a barrier curtain 30, the upper and lower ends of which are connected to the locking mechanism 20 and the clamping assembly 4, respectively. By providing the barrier curtain 30, the flow of air inside and outside and the diffusion of liquid are blocked, thereby ensuring the temperature regulation effect of the integrated air conditioner 200. The upper end of the movable rail 201 is connected to the clamping assembly 4, and the locking mechanism 20 is provided on the fixed rail 101. When the movable rail 201 moves relative to the fixed rail 101, the distance between the clamping assembly 4 and the locking mechanism 20 changes; the upper and lower ends of the barrier curtain 30 are connected to the locking mechanism 20 and the clamping assembly 4, respectively. The distance between the upper and lower ends of the barrier curtain 30 can change as the distance between the clamping assembly 4 and the locking mechanism 20 changes, and the barrier curtain 30 always exerts a blocking effect. It is understood that during operation, the integrated air conditioner 200 blocks the flow of indoor and outdoor air by providing the barrier curtain 30. Furthermore, the barrier curtain 30 can change with the size of the window frame 300, allowing it to adapt to window frames 300 of different sizes, thereby improving the versatility of the installation mechanism 100. The specific structure of the barrier curtain 30 can be referenced to pleated curtains in the prior art and will not be further described here.

[0083] like Figure 3 、 Figure 7 As shown, in other specific embodiments, the locking mechanism 20 includes: a horizontal moving member 21, a hook portion 211 is provided on the horizontal moving member 21, and a hook hole (not shown) is provided on the integrated air conditioner 200. The hook portion is suitable for cooperating with the hook hole to position the integrated air conditioner 200. By providing the horizontal moving member 21 to position the integrated air conditioner 200, the user can install and remove the integrated air conditioner 200 as needed, meeting the user's needs to move the integrated air conditioner 200 and improving the user experience. The cooperation between the hook portion 211 and the hook hole allows the integrated air conditioner 200 to be positioned on the mounting mechanism 100, wherein the horizontal moving member 21 can move, and the movement of the horizontal moving member 21 causes the hook portion 211 to cooperate with the hook hole, thereby installing the integrated air conditioner 200 on the mounting mechanism 100; the movement of the horizontal moving member 21 can cause the hook portion 211 to disengage from the hook hole, thereby allowing the integrated air conditioner 200 to be removed from the mounting mechanism 100.

[0084] For example, the horizontal moving member 21 can move left and right. When the horizontal moving member 21 moves to the right, the hook portion 211 extends into the hook hole. The hook portion 211 hooks the integrated air conditioner 200, and the integrated air conditioner 200 is fixed on the mounting mechanism 100, avoiding the danger of the integrated air conditioner 200 leaning forward and falling from the mounting mechanism 100, thereby improving safety; when the horizontal moving member 21 moves to the left, the hook portion 211 moves out of the hook hole, and the integrated air conditioner 200 loses the restriction of the hook portion 211, and the integrated air conditioner 200 can be removed from the mounting mechanism 100. By setting the horizontal moving member 21, the installation of the integrated air conditioner 200 is facilitated and the installation steps are simplified.

[0085] like Figure 3 、 Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the horizontal moving member 21 is provided with a dial handle 212. The dial handle 212 is located on one side of the horizontal moving member 21 and extends away from the horizontal moving member 21. The provision of the dial handle 212 facilitates user control of the horizontal moving member 21. For example, the dial handle 212 is located at the upper end of the horizontal moving member 21, and the horizontal moving member 21 is located at the upper end of the integrated air conditioner 200. The dial handle 212 extends out of the integrated air conditioner 200, and the user can conveniently move the dial handle 212 to move the dial handle 212. Of course, the dial handle 212 can also be located at the upper end, left end, or rear end of the horizontal moving member, which will not be repeated here.

[0086] like Figure 3 、 Figure 7 As shown, in other embodiments, the locking mechanism 20 further includes a fixed beam 22, which is arranged on the fixed rail 101, and a first matching hole 221 is provided on the fixed beam 22, and a second matching hole 204 is provided on the integrated air conditioner 200. The locking mechanism 20 further includes a fastener (not shown in the figure), which passes through the first matching hole 221 and cooperates with the second matching hole 204. By setting the fastener to pass through the first matching hole 221 and cooperate with the second matching hole 204, the integrated air conditioner 200 is fixed to the mounting mechanism 100. On the basis of the hook portion 211 cooperating with the hook hole to position the integrated air conditioner 200, the integrated air conditioner 200 is further restricted, thereby improving the connection stability between the integrated air conditioner 200 and the mounting mechanism 100.

[0087] like Figure 3 、 Figure 7 As shown, specifically, the horizontal moving member 21 is movably mounted on the fixed beam 22. The locking mechanism 20 further includes an elastic member (not shown), one end of which is connected to the horizontal moving member 21 and the other end of which is mounted on the fixed beam 22. The elastic member has a tendency to lock the horizontal moving member 21. When the horizontal moving member 21 is in the locked state, the hook portion 211 on the horizontal moving member 21 cooperates with the hook hole to position the integrated air conditioner 200.

[0088] Alternatively, the elastic member is a spring, one end of which is connected to the horizontal moving member 21, and the other end of which is connected to the fixed beam 22. For example, the left end of the spring is connected to the horizontal moving member 21, and the right end of the spring is connected to the fixed beam 22, so that the spring pulls the horizontal moving member 21 to the right; alternatively, the right end of the spring is connected to the horizontal moving member 21, and the left end of the spring is connected to the fixed beam 22, so that the spring pushes the horizontal moving member 21 to the right. Of course, the elastic member can also move the horizontal moving member 21 to the left. The situation of the horizontal moving member 21 moving to the left is the same as the situation of moving to the right, and will not be repeated here.

[0089] More specifically, a limiting portion (not shown) is provided on the horizontal moving member 21, and a limiting member (not shown) is provided on the fixed beam 22. The limiting member moves on the limiting portion. By providing the limiting portion and the limiting member, the movement of the horizontal moving member 21 is restricted, thereby facilitating control of the horizontal moving member 21. When the limiting member abuts against the limiting portion, the horizontal moving member 21 enters a locked state.

[0090] Optionally, the limiting member is a limiting screw, the limiting portion is a limiting hole, the limiting screw passes through the screw hole and is threadedly connected to the fixed beam 22, and the limiting screw is arranged in the limiting hole.

[0091] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting mechanism 100 further includes a handle 40. The handle 40 cooperates with the movable rail 201 to drive the movable rail 201 to slide up and down relative to the fixed rail 101. The handle 40 is located below the clamping assembly 4. The clamping assembly 4 is located at the upper end of the movable rail 201 and cooperates with the upper portion of the window frame 300. It is understood that when the mounting mechanism 100 is installed on the window frame 300, the clamping assembly 4 is at a relatively high height. When the user installs the mounting mechanism 100, the user inevitably needs to climb to a high height. In this case, the user may be in danger. In addition, the above-mentioned installation steps are relatively cumbersome. The present invention provides a handle 40 to drive the movable rail 201 to slide up and down. The handle 40 is located below the clamping assembly 4. The user does not need to climb to a high height to control the handle 40 to slide the movable rail 201 up and down, thereby improving the installation and removal convenience of the mounting mechanism 100. At the same time, the user's safety is guaranteed, meeting the user's needs for self-service installation and relocation.

[0092] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the handle member 40 is arranged between the two movable rails 201, and the handle member 40 is in the placement space. By setting the handle member 40 in the placement space, when the integrated air conditioner 200 is installed in the placement space, the handle member 40 can position the integrated air conditioner 200 to prevent the integrated air conditioner 200 from tipping to one side, thereby improving safety.

[0093] like Figure 3 As shown, more specifically, the blocking curtain 30 is arranged between the two movable rails 201, and the movable rail 201 is provided with a sliding groove (not shown in the figure), and part of the blocking curtain 30 extends into the sliding groove. By setting part of the blocking curtain 30 to extend into the sliding groove, the blocking effect of the blocking curtain 30 is improved, and at the same time, the blocking curtain 30 is better limited and stored.
