[0039] The main body 1 is configured to install a heat exchanger 200;
[0040] A fixing portion 2, configured to be fixedly connected to a mounting portion 301 of a predetermined structure;
[0041] The fixing part 2 includes a horizontal fixing plate 21 and a vertical fixing plate 22, the vertical fixing plate 22 is provided with a buckle 221, and one end of the horizontal fixing plate 21 is provided with a retaining edge 211 bent relative to the horizontal fixing plate 21; when the fixing part 2 is installed with the mounting part 301, the vertical fixing plate 22 is located at the first side of the mounting part 301, and the buckle 221 is stuck in the slot 3013 provided on the first side of the mounting part 301, the horizontal fixing plate 21 is located on the top surface 3011 of the mounting part 301, and the retaining edge 211 is stopped at the second side of the mounting part 301 adjacent to the first side. The structure of the mounting part 301 can refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown.
[0042] The solution provided by the embodiment of the present application is that the buckle 221 provided on the vertical fixing plate 22 of the fixing part 2 is clamped in the clamping groove 3013 provided on the first side of the mounting part 301, and the horizontal fixing plate 21 cooperates with the top surface 3011 of the mounting part 301, so that the heat exchanger bracket 100 can be pre-installed on the mounting part 301, and the retaining edge 211 is stopped on the second side surface of the mounting part 301 adjacent to the first side, which can not only position the installation of the heat exchanger bracket 100, but also effectively prevent the heat exchanger bracket 100 from tipping over, thereby making the heat exchanger bracket 100 relatively stably pre-installed on the mounting part 301, and then further fixed by means such as bolt connection. Therefore, the solution provided by the present application can not only make the installation structure of the heat exchanger bracket 100 stable, but also the pre-installation method can be conducive to improving the installation efficiency of the heat exchanger bracket 100.

The heat exchanger 200 is provided to be fixed to the main plate 11 by bolts passing through the mounting hole 13, and the lower part of the heat exchanger 200 is supported by the support portion 14. The support provided by the support portion 14 can prevent the main plate 11 from being damaged due to the bolts being pulled down by the gravity of the heat exchanger 200, and the bolts being pulled down to looseness. The support portion 14 can be formed by cutting a part of the plate on the main plate 11 and turning it up, and the part of the plate that serves as the support portion 14 is turned up to form an opening 15 on the main plate 11. Of course, the support portion 14 can also be a structure fixed to the main plate 11 by welding or bolting.

Figure 2 It is shown that the concave area 113 is convex relative to the first area 111 and the second area 112.
