[0034] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0035] The present invention is based on the inventor's discovery and understanding of the following facts and problems:

[0036] In the prior art, the water level switch float is usually installed on the casing of the air-conditioning equipment. When the water pump needs to be installed or repaired after sales, the casing needs to be removed first, and then the water level switch float needs to be removed and installed in other locations. Finally, the water pump or the repaired water pump is installed at the original location where the water level switch float was installed. This process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and reduces the efficiency of after-sales maintenance.

[0037] The bracket of the embodiment of the utility model is described below.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the bracket 10 of the embodiment of the utility model includes a first plate 1 and a second plate 2. The material of the bracket 10 can be metal, plastic, etc. When the bracket 10 is metal, the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 can be formed by stamping.

[0039] The first plate 1 is used to be attached to and connected with the middle partition plate 20 of the air conditioning equipment, for example, Figure 2 As shown, during installation, the first plate 1 can be arranged vertically, the first plate 1 can be located on the rear side of the middle partition 20 and in close contact with the rear side surface of the first plate 1, and then the first plate 1 can be connected to the middle partition 20 by fasteners, snap-on fixation, etc.

[0040] The second plate 2 is connected to the first plate 1, and the extension direction of the second plate 2 is arranged to intersect with the extension direction of the first plate 1. The second plate 2 is provided with a mounting portion 21 and a first hole 22. The mounting portion 21 is used to install the water level detection device 30, and the first hole 22 is used for the wire of the water level detection device 30 to pass through.

[0041] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the second plate 2 can be a long plate as a whole, and the second plate 2 can generally extend along the front-to-back direction, and the front end of the second plate 2 can be connected to the bottom end of the first plate 1. The mounting portion 21 can be a slot provided at the rear end of the second plate 2, and the water level detection device 30 can be a water level switch float, such as Figure 2 As shown, the water level detection device 30 can first be transversely embedded in the slot, and then the water level detection device 30 can be fixed to the mounting portion 21 of the second plate 2 by nuts or the like.

[0042] The first hole 22 can penetrate the second plate 2 in the up and down direction. The first hole 22 can be arranged on the front side of the mounting portion 21. When the water level detection device 30 is fixed at the mounting portion 21, the wire of the water level detection device 30 can pass through the first hole 22. Thus, the wire can be limited and the wire can be prevented from drooping at will.

[0043] The bracket 10 of the embodiment of the utility model can install the water level detection device 30 on the middle partition 20, avoiding the situation in the prior art that the water level detection device 30 needs to be removed before the water pump can be installed when the water level detection device 30 is installed on the shell, thereby improving the convenience of operation. Secondly, it also facilitates the routing of the water level detection device 30, avoids the situation where the wires of the water level detection device 30 droop, and facilitates the arrangement and fixation of the wires.

The provision of the protrusion 23 can play a role in structural reinforcement, thereby reducing the effect of setting the first hole 22 on structural weakening.

[0046] In some embodiments, the protrusion 23 extends along the extension direction of the second plate 2 , the first hole 22 is a long hole, and the extension direction of the first hole 22 is consistent with the extension direction of the protrusion 23 .

[0047] For example, the protrusion 23 and the first hole 22 can both be roughly runway-shaped, and the protrusion 23 and the first hole 22 can both extend in the front-to-back direction, wherein the protrusion 23 extending in the front-to-back direction can enhance the reinforcement area of ​​the structure, and the first hole 22 extending in the front-to-back direction can facilitate the wire to pass through the first hole 22, and also allows the wire to be adjusted along the first hole 22.

[0048] In some embodiments, the first plate 1 is provided with a second hole 11, and the second hole 11 is used for passing a fastener connecting the first plate 1 and the middle partition plate 20. Figure 1 As shown, the second hole 11 can pass through the first plate 1 along the front-to-back direction, and the second hole 11 can be set at the top of the first plate 1. When the first plate 1 is fitted with the middle partition 20, fasteners such as screws can be passed through the second hole 11, thereby facilitating the connection and fixation of the first plate 1 and the middle partition 20.

[0049] In some embodiments, one of the first plate 1 and the middle partition plate 20 is provided with a slot 12 , and the other is provided with a snap-fitting portion 201 , which passes through the slot 12 and is snap-fitted with the first plate 1 to limit position.

[0050] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the slot 12 can be provided on the first plate 1, and the clamping portion 201 can be provided on the middle partition 20. During assembly, the first plate 1 and the middle partition 20 can be pre-fixed by first cooperating with the clamping portion 201 and the slot 12, thereby playing a role in positioning the first plate 1 and the middle partition 20, and also facilitating the connection and fixing of the first plate 1 and the middle partition 20 by fasteners.

[0051] In some embodiments, the card slot 12 is provided on the first plate 1, and the card slot 12 includes a first slot section 121 and a second slot section 122. The second slot section 122 is located between the first slot section 121 and the connection between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2. The width dimension of the first slot section 121 is not less than the width dimension of the second slot section 122, and the snap-in portion 201 is located in the second slot section 122.

[0052] For example, Figure 1As shown, the first slot segment 121 can be connected to the top of the second slot segment 122, the first slot segment 121 can be generally trapezoidal, the second slot segment 122 is generally rectangular, the second slot segment 122 can be connected to the bottom of the first slot segment 121, and the width dimensions of the first slot segment 121 and the second slot segment 122 can both be regarded as the slot width dimensions in the left-right direction, wherein the width dimension of the first slot segment 121 at any position is not less than the width dimension of the second slot segment 122.

[0053] During assembly, the clamping portion 201 can be first inserted into the first slot section 121 and then moved down to the second slot section 122. Since the first slot section 121 is wider, the convenience of operation is improved.

[0054] In some embodiments, the width of the first slot segment 121 gradually decreases in a direction close to the second slot segment 122, and the width of the second slot segment 122 remains unchanged in a direction away from the first slot segment 121. Thus, the first slot segment 121 can have a guiding function, thereby further improving the convenience of assembling the clamping portion 201 to the second slot segment 122.

[0055] In some embodiments, a plurality of reinforcing portions 3 are provided at the connection between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 , the plurality of reinforcing portions 3 are located within the angle formed by the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 , and the plurality of reinforcing portions 3 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the connection between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 .

[0056] For example, Figure 1 As shown, two reinforcing parts 3 can be provided, both of which can be convex, and both of which can be formed by stamping at the connection between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2. The setting of the reinforcing part 3 can enhance the structural strength of the connection between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2, thereby fully ensuring the use needs of the second plate 2 to overhang and fix the water level detection device 30.
