[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a mounting bracket, a water pump assembly and an air conditioning device. Background Art

[0002] Air conditioning equipment on the market with water tanks, such as cold fans, will easily breed bacteria in the water in the water tanks as the usage time increases, which not only affects the user experience but also poses a threat to the user's health.

[0003] In order to improve hygiene and safety, the water tank needs to be sterilized. Some products directly install a sterilization box on the shell of the water tank. This method requires the user to reach into the water tank when removing and installing the sterilization box, which is inconvenient to operate and affects the user experience. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a mounting bracket, a water pump assembly and an air conditioning device to solve the problem that when disassembling and assembling the sterilization box, the user needs to put his hand into the water tank, which is inconvenient to operate.
