[0044] According to another embodiment of the inverter installation structure of the present invention, please refer to Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the difference from an embodiment is that the inverter installation structure includes a bracket 3, and the bracket 3 is used to support the inverter 1 to reduce the force on the hook structure 12.

[0045] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 , connecting columns 31 are fixed on both sides of the bracket 3, and each vertical rod 212 is fixed with an adjusting member 4, and the adjusting member 4 is connected to the vertical rod 212 by bolts. The adjusting member 4 is provided with an adjusting hole 41, and the adjusting hole 41 is a waist-shaped hole. The connecting column 31 at least partially has an external thread, and the connecting column 31 can move in the adjusting hole 41.

[0046] In this embodiment, see Figure 8 The axis of the adjustment hole 41 is inclined at a certain angle relative to the vertical rod 212. When the connecting column 31 is located at the bottom position of the adjustment hole 41, the position of the bracket 3 decreases along the height direction H of the frame 22. At the same time, the bracket 3 moves away from the vertical rod 212 along the thickness direction of the frame 22, further avoiding interference with the installation of the inverter 1.

[0047] To lock the bracket 3 in the supporting position, see Figure 8The adjusting member 4 is provided with an auxiliary hole 42 , and the auxiliary hole 42 is used for installing a bolt, and the bolt connects the adjusting member 4 and the bracket 3 .

[0049] According to another embodiment of the inverter installation structure of the present invention, please refer to Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the difference from one embodiment is that the vertical rod 212 is set as a height-adjustable structure.

[0050] See also Fig.10 The vertical rod 212 includes an upper section 2121 and a lower section 2122. The upper section 2121 is sleeved on the inner side of the lower section 2122. The lower section 2122 is provided with a first hole 2123, and the first hole 2123 is formed by stacking a plurality of diamond holes. The upper section 2121 is provided with a plurality of circular holes arranged at intervals. The upper section 2121 and the lower section 2122 are locked by bolts. The relative position between the upper section 2121 and the lower section 2122 changes, so as to realize the height adjustment of the vertical rod 212 to adapt to different application requirements.

[0051] The installation process of the inverter of the present invention is as follows, see Fig.11 Before installing the inverter 1, adjust the bracket 3 to the lowest position; the inverter 1 is tilted at a certain angle. At this time, the four upper, lower, left and right end faces of the inverter 1 are all tilted relative to the frame 22, and the installation space surrounded by the first hook 121, the second hook 122, the third hook 123 and the fourth hook 124 is also in a tilted state. After that, the frame 22 is installed in the installation space, and then the inverter 1 is rotated so that the four end faces of the inverter 1 are respectively parallel to the four sides of the frame 22, so that the inverter 1 and the frame 22 are connected; finally, the connecting column 31 of the bracket 3 is pushed to the highest position of the adjustment hole 41 and locked with bolts.

[0052] The present invention provides a hook structure 12 on the box body 11, and a frame 22 is correspondingly provided on the bracket 2.
