[0047] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the water receiving tray of the air conditioner according to one embodiment of the utility model. Figure 1 As shown, and refer to Figure 2-8 . An embodiment of the utility model provides a mounting bracket for a liquid level switch of a water receiving tray, comprising a water tank cover 220 and a connecting frame 240. The water tank cover 220 is used to detachably cover the upper side of the water tank 400 of the water receiving tray 100. The water tank cover 220 is formed with a first opening slot 221 and a positioning column 222. The first opening slot 221 is horizontally arranged so that the vertically arranged liquid level switch 300 passes through the first opening slot 221. The positioning column 222 is fixedly connected to a lateral side of the opening of the first opening slot 221, and the extending direction of the positioning column 222 is in the same direction as the opening direction of the first opening slot 221.

[0048] The liquid level switch 300 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 240. The connecting frame 240 includes a horizontally arranged first cover plate 241 and a vertically arranged first side plate 242. The first cover plate 241 is used to cover the upper side of the first opening groove 221. The first side plate 242 is provided with a positioning hole 243 that cooperates with the positioning column 222 plug-in sleeve.

[0049] The liquid level switch 300 can be a float switch, an electromagnetic induction switch, an electronic switch, etc. The liquid level switch 300 is usually vertically arranged in the water tank 400 to detect the water level. The liquid level switch 300 is arranged in the water receiving tray 100 to timely grasp the height of the water level and avoid overflow.

[0050] In this embodiment, the water receiving tray 100 may be provided with a receiving tank at the lower side of the heat exchanger of the air conditioner to receive condensed water, dehumidified water, etc. The water tank 400 is connected to the receiving tank so as to accurately reflect the water level in the receiving tank. The volume of the water tank 400 is smaller than the receiving tank, and a water tank cover 220 is provided on the upper side of the water tank 400. The liquid level switch 300 vertically passes through the first opening groove 221 provided on the water tank cover 220 and is inserted into the water tank 400 at the lower side of the water tank cover 220. The water tank cover 220 can prevent dust, foreign matter, etc. from entering the water tank 400, thereby avoiding clogging the water tank 400 or damaging the liquid level switch 300.

[0051] Specifically, the water tank cover 220 can be detachably mounted on the upper side of the water tank 400 by means of buckles, fasteners, etc. The first opening slot 221 can be U-shaped, and its opening can be located at one side edge of the water tank cover 220. For example, Figure 6 As shown, the opening of the first opening slot 221 is located at one side edge in the length direction of the water tank cover 220. Thus, the positioning column 222 is located outside the one side edge in the length direction of the water tank cover 220 and extends outward.

[0052] This embodiment does not limit the cross-sectional shape of the positioning column 222, and the positioning column 222 may be cylindrical or polygonal, and the shape of the positioning hole 243 on the first side plate 242 may match the cross-sectional shape of the positioning column 222. There may be one or more positioning columns 222 to improve the connection strength between the water tank cover 220 and the connecting frame 240.

[0053] Since the positioning column 222 and the positioning hole 243 are both arranged horizontally, when the connecting frame 240 is arranged on the water tank cover 220 along the horizontal socket, the positioning column 222 will restrict the connecting frame 240 from moving up and down, that is, limit the liquid level switch 300 in the vertical direction.

[0054] When in use, the connecting frame 240 is first installed on the water tank cover 220 along the horizontal socket, and then the water tank cover 220 is placed on the water tank 400, and the assembly of the liquid level switch 300 and the water tank cover 220 is completed. When disassembling, the water tank cover 220 is removed from the water tank 400, and then the connecting frame 240 is pulled outward, and the disassembly of the liquid level switch 300 is completed. The disassembly and assembly process of this technical solution is relatively simple, and the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the liquid level switch 300 is improved.

[0055] On the other hand, since the connecting frame 240 is installed on the sink cover 220 through the positioning hole 243 and the positioning column 222, compared with the prior art of fixing it in the sink 400 by screws, the use of screws can be reduced, fundamentally avoiding the problem of deformation and damage of the screw holes that is easily caused by multiple disassembly and assembly of the screws, thereby achieving the effect of reducing after-sales costs.

[0056] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-8 As shown, the water tank cover 220 further includes a first buckle hole 223, and the opening direction of the first buckle hole 223 is the same as the opening direction of the first opening slot 221.

[0057] The mounting bracket 200 further includes a connection cover 250 , which includes a second cover plate 251 arranged horizontally, a second side plate 252 arranged vertically, a first buckle 253 and a second buckle 254 .

[0058] The second cover plate 251 is used to be attached to the upper surface of the first cover plate 241 .

[0059] The second side plate 252 is used to be closely connected to a surface of the first side plate 242 that is away from the first opening groove 221 .

[0060] The first buckle 253 extends outward from one end of the second cover plate 251 close to the first buckle hole 223 , so that when the second side plate 252 is attached to the first side plate 242 , the first buckle 253 is inserted and connected to the first buckle hole 223 .

[0061] The second buckle 254 extends outward from a side surface of the second side plate 252 close to the first side plate 242 and is located at the lower side of the first side plate 242 so as to be clamped on the lower edge of the first side plate 242 when the second side plate 252 is attached to the first side plate 242 .

[0062] In this embodiment, a connection cover 250 is also provided on the connection frame 240. The first buckle hole 223 and the first buckle 253 can be arranged horizontally and form a plug-in connection. On the one hand, the connection cover 250 and the water tank cover 220 sandwich the connection frame 240 in the vertical direction to further limit the liquid level switch 300. On the other hand, after the first buckle hole 223 and the first buckle 253 form a plug-in connection, a horizontal limit is also formed to prevent the connection cover 250 from detaching from the water tank cover 220 along the opening direction of the first opening groove 221. Since the second side plate 252 of the connection cover 250 is attached to the first side plate 242 from the outside, the connection frame 240 is prevented from detaching from the water tank cover 220 along the opening direction of the first opening groove 221.

[0063] In particular, the connecting cover 250 is further provided with a second buckle 254, and the second buckle 254 and the first buckle 253 are respectively located at opposite ends of the connecting cover 250 along the opening direction of the first opening slot 221. After the second buckle 254 is connected to the first side plate 242, on the one hand, the first side plate 242 can stop the second buckle 254 from moving upward, and the positioning column 222 of the water tank cover 220 directly stops the first side plate 242 from moving upward through the positioning hole 243, that is, at least at one end of the first side plate 242, the connecting frame 240 and the connecting cover 250 are fixedly connected to the water tank cover 220 in the vertical direction. On the other hand, the first side plate 242 also stops the second buckle 254 from detaching from the connecting frame 240 in the opening direction of the first opening slot 221 in the horizontal direction, that is, the connecting frame 240 and the connecting cover 250 are fixedly connected to the water tank cover 220 in the horizontal direction.

[0064] In this embodiment, by providing the connection cover 250, the connection frame 240 is further limited, so that the liquid level switch 300 is firmly connected to the water tank cover 220. In addition, the connection cover 250 is connected to the water tank cover 220 and the connection frame 240 by buckles, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0065] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 8 As shown, the connection cover 250 further includes a second opening groove 255 and an opening cap 260 .

[0066] The second opening slot 255 is located on the second cover plate 251 , and the opening direction of the second opening slot 255 is opposite to the opening direction of the first opening slot 221 , so that when the second side plate 252 is attached to the first side plate 242 , the liquid level switch 300 passes through the first opening slot 221 and the second opening slot 255 in sequence from bottom to top.

[0067] The opening cap 260 includes a U-shaped side wall 261 extending upward from the groove edge of the second opening groove 255 , and a top wall 262 covering the upper end of the U-shaped side wall 261 .

[0068] In this embodiment, by providing the second opening slot 255, the upper end of the liquid level switch 300 can be extended out of the water tank cover 220 and the connecting frame 240. On the one hand, it can prevent water drops from flowing downward into the liquid level switch 300 through the first opening slot 221, causing damage to the liquid level switch 300 or inaccurate measurement. On the other hand, the cable of the liquid level switch 300 can be extended from the second opening slot 255 and the opening of the opening cap 260, without having to provide additional threading holes on the water tank cover 220.

[0069] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-8 As shown, on a horizontal projection plane, the connection cover 250 and the connection frame 240 cover the first opening slot 221 .

[0070] In this embodiment, the connecting cover 250 and the connecting frame 240 are both located on the upper side of the first opening groove 221, and block and cover the first opening groove 221, which can prevent water droplets in the upper heat exchanger or air duct from flowing into the first opening groove 221 and then entering the liquid level switch 300 or the water tank 400.

[0071] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-8 As shown, there are two positioning posts 222 located at two lateral sides of the opening of the first opening slot 221 . There are two positioning holes 243 corresponding to the two positioning posts 222 .

[0072] In this way, the water tank cover 220 can further limit the connection frame 240 to prevent the connection frame 240 from moving, rotating or shaking, so that the liquid level switch 300 is located at a preset position.

[0073] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-8 As shown, there are two first buckle holes 223 arranged at intervals and located at two lateral sides of the opening of the second opening slot 255. There are two first buckles 253 arranged corresponding to the two first buckle holes 223.

[0074] In this way, the water tank cover 220 can further limit the connection cover 250 to prevent the connection cover 250 from moving, rotating or shaking, thereby preventing the connection frame 240 from moving, rotating or shaking, so that the liquid level switch 300 is at a preset position.

[0075] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-8 As shown, there are two second buckles 254 disposed at intervals and located on both sides of the liquid level switch 300 in the lateral direction.

[0076] In this way, the connection cover 250 can further limit the connection frame 240 to prevent the connection frame 240 from moving, rotating or shaking, so that the liquid level switch 300 is located at a preset position.

[0077] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-8 As shown, a plurality of first opening slots 221 are arranged at intervals along the upper side of the water tank cover 220. The connecting frame 240 and the connecting cover 250 are arranged in a plurality corresponding to the plurality of first opening slots 221 one by one.

[0078] In this embodiment, by setting multiple first open grooves 221, connecting frames 240 and connecting covers 250 on a water tank cover 220, multiple liquid level switches 300 can be set in the water tank 400 to detect water levels at different depths to meet the diverse drainage and water use needs of the air conditioner.

[0079] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 2-3 As shown, the sink 400 includes a plurality of first side walls 410 corresponding one to the first opening grooves 221, each first side wall 410 has a side surface that is gap-fitted with the second side plate 252 of the corresponding connecting cover 250, and the top end of each first side wall 410 is higher than the lower end of the second side plate 252 of the corresponding connecting cover 250, so that when the sink cover 220 is covered on the sink 400, each first side wall 410 blocks the corresponding connecting cover 250 in the horizontal direction.

[0080] In this embodiment, the first side wall 410 may contact the second side plate 252 of the connecting cover 250, or have a small gap therebetween, so as to limit the connecting cover 250 in the horizontal direction, thereby limiting the sink cover 220 and preventing the sink cover 220 from detaching from the sink 400 in the horizontal direction.

[0081] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-6 As shown, the water tank cover 220 further includes a third cover plate 224 arranged horizontally, a concave U-shaped step 225 is formed on the upper surface of the third cover plate 224, and the first opening groove 221 is formed on the table surface of the U-shaped step 225. The first cover plate 241 is located in the U-shaped step 225, and the lateral edges of the first cover plate 241 are gap-matched with the lateral inner walls of the U-shaped step 225.

[0082] In this embodiment, the horizontal projection surface of the first cover plate 241 may be a convex U-shape, so as to be fitted downwardly in the U-shaped step 225. The inner walls on both sides of the U-shaped step 225 are in contact with the edges on both sides of the first cover plate 241, or have a small gap, so as to limit the first cover plate 241 in the horizontal direction.

[0083] Preferably, the edge of the first snap hole 223 or the inner side wall of the U-shaped step 225 can be matched with the edge gap of one end of the first cover plate 241 away from the first side plate 242 to stop the first cover plate 241 in the insertion direction of the connecting frame 240 and limit the first cover plate 241.

[0084] In some embodiments of the mounting bracket 200 of the present invention, as Figure 4-6 As shown, the sink cover 220 further includes a connecting hole 226 and a third side plate 227 disposed vertically.

[0085] The connection hole 226 is vertically arranged on the third cover plate 224 , and a connection column 420 extending upward is arranged on the bottom surface of the water receiving tray 100 , and the connection hole 226 is fixedly connected to the connection column 420 by screws.

[0086] The third side plate 227 extends downward from one end of the third cover plate 224 away from the connection hole 226.
