Therefore, this application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0026] An embodiment of this application provides an auxiliary bracket 1. The auxiliary bracket 1 is provided with a motor mounting portion and a positioning connecting member. The motor mounting portion is used for mounting and fixing a motor 5, and the positioning connecting member is used for positioning and connecting with a main mounting bracket 4 so that the motor 5 is disposed on the main mounting bracket 4 through the auxiliary bracket 1.

[0027] In an embodiment of this application, the auxiliary bracket 1 is used to assist in mounting the motor 5 on the main mounting bracket 4. The auxiliary bracket 1 is provided with a motor mounting portion and a positioning connecting member. First, the motor 5 is placed into the motor mounting portion of the auxiliary bracket 1, and then the auxiliary bracket 1 is positioned and fixed on the main mounting bracket 4 through the positioning connecting member. At this time, the motor 5 is fixed on the main mounting bracket 4 through a connecting member. When disassembling and assembling the motor 5, the motor mounting portion can support the motor 5. At this time, the installer does not need to hold the motor 5 with one hand and can complete the installation and disassembly of the motor 5, which is convenient for the installer to complete the operation independently without adding additional installers to jointly complete the disassembly and assembly. Moreover, the motor mounting portion supports the motor 5, and the motor 5 will not fall during the disassembly and assembly process, which can prevent the motor 5 from being damaged and can also prevent the installer from being injured by the motor 5, improving the efficiency of the installer in disassembling and assembling the motor 5, reducing labor costs, and reducing the possibility of component damage.

[0028] In some embodiments, the auxiliary bracket 1 includes a bracket body 2. The motor mounting portion is disposed on the bracket body 2, and the positioning connecting member is connected to the bracket body 2. The main mounting bracket 4 is provided with a mounting through-hole 41. The bracket body 2 is used to be disposed at one end of the mounting through-hole 41, and the motor mounting portion passes through the mounting through-hole 41 and extends to the other end of the mounting through-hole 41.

[0029] Specifically, the bracket body 2 is installed at one end of the installation through hole 41. A circular hole 21 is provided through the bracket body 2. The motor installation part penetrates the space in the middle of the bracket body 2 and extends to the other end of the installation through hole 41. After the motor 5 is installed in the motor installation part, a part of the motor 5 is located in the circular hole 21, and the other part extends into the installation through hole 41. The area of the motor installation part is relatively large, and it can stably support the motor 5. With such a setting, the motor installation part can transition between the bracket body 2 and the installation through hole 41, and can stably play a supporting role when installing the motor 5. In some other embodiments, the bracket body 2 is directly installed in the installation through hole 41 through a positioning connecting piece.

[0030] In some embodiments, the motor installation part includes a plurality of support sub-parts 11 arranged at intervals in sequence along the circumference of the installation through hole 41, and the plurality of support sub-parts 11 support the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5.

[0031] Specifically, the motor installation part includes a plurality of support sub-parts 11. The support sub-parts 11 have support surfaces for contacting the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5. The plurality of support sub-parts 11 jointly support the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5, and the plurality of support sub-parts 11 are distributed at intervals along the circumference. With such a setting, the contact area between the motor installation part and the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5 can be increased, and the support stability of the auxiliary bracket 1 for the motor 5 can be improved. In some other embodiments, the motor installation part includes a support plate body extending in an arc shape along the circumference of the installation through hole 41, and the support plate body is used to support the motor 5.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there are four support sub-parts 11 evenly distributed at intervals along the circumference. The motor 5 has four mounting seats 51. Through holes are provided on the mounting seats 51, and a support sub-part 11 is provided between two adjacent mounting seats 51. When the motor 5 is installed in the motor installation part, the circumferential rotation of the motor 5 can be restricted by the support sub-parts 11, and the support sub-parts 11 can be arranged to avoid the mounting seats 51, preventing interference between the two structures. And such a design also has an anti-mistake function. When installing, the installer can quickly nest and install the motor 5 and the auxiliary bracket 1, which is more rapid and convenient.

[0033] In some embodiments, the support sub-part 11 includes a first plate body 11a and a second plate body 11b. The first plate body 11a protrudes from the bracket body 2, and the second plate body 11b is angularly connected to the first plate body 11a. The first plate body 11a extends along the radial direction of the installation through hole 41, and the second plate body 11b extends along the axial direction of the installation through hole 41. The plurality of second plate bodies 11b jointly enclose a clamping part 12, and the clamping part 12 is used to clamp the motor 5.

[0034] Specifically, the first plate body 11a extends along the axis of the circular hole 21 of the bracket body 2. The second plate body 11b is connected to the end of the first plate body 11a far from the bracket body 2. The extending direction of the second plate body 11b is parallel to the axis of the circular hole 21. The included angle between the first plate body 11a and the second plate body 11b is a right angle. The extension of the first plate body 11a enables the second plate body 11b to abut against the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5. A plurality of second plate bodies 11b together enclose a clamping portion 12. The width inside the clamping portion 12 is the same as the diameter of the motor 5. However, when the motor 5 is not placed in the clamping portion 12, the opening size of the clamping portion 12 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the motor 5. When the motor 5 needs to be installed, one of the second plate bodies 11b can be pried outwards a little bit. After the motor 5 is placed, the motor 5 is clamped. With such a setting, all the second plate bodies 11b can abut against the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5, which can further increase the placement stability of the motor 5, and the motor 5 is not likely to fall off, and the safety of the installer during operation is higher. In some other embodiments, the supporting sub - portion 11 includes a plurality of elastic blocks. The elastic blocks are arranged on the inner hole wall of the circular hole 21 of the bracket body 2 and extend towards the motor 5. The plurality of elastic blocks are used to jointly clamp the motor 5.

[0035] In some embodiments, the second plate body 11b is adapted to the outer shape of the motor 5 and is arranged as an arc - shaped plate. The arc - shaped plate abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5.

[0036] Specifically, since the motor 5 is cylindrical, the second plate body 11b is arranged as an arc - shaped plate. The surface of the second plate body 11b facing the motor 5 is an arc surface, and this arc surface can completely adhere to the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5. With such a setting, the contact area between the second plate body 11b and the motor 5 can be increased, and the clamping stability of the second plate body 11b for the motor 5 can be increased. In some other embodiments, the second plate body 11b is a straight plate, and an arc - shaped sponge is provided on the side of the straight plate facing the motor 5. The arc - shaped sponge is adapted to the outer peripheral surface of the motor 5.

[0037] In some embodiments, the supporting sub - portion 11 includes a reinforcing rib 11c. Adjacent ends of the reinforcing rib 11c are respectively connected to the first plate body 11a and the second plate body 11b.

[0038] Specifically, a reinforcing rib 11c is provided at the included angle between the first plate body 11a and the second plate body 11b, and the reinforcing rib 11c is connected to both of them. With such a setting, the connection strength between the first plate body 11a and the second plate body 11b can be increased. When the second plate body 11b abuts against the motor 5, the reinforcing rib 11c can share some pressure, making the second plate body 11b not easily deformed, and increasing the service life of the supporting sub - portion 11.

[0039] Further, the motor mounting portion further includes an arc-shaped support plate 13 provided on the inner hole wall of the circular hole 21. The extending direction of the arc-shaped support plate 13 is opposite to that of the second plate body 11b. An arc-shaped support plate 13 is provided between two adjacent support sub-portions 11, and the arc-shaped support plate 13 is used to support the outer peripheral wall of the motor 5.

[0040] In some embodiments, the positioning connecting member and the support sub-portion 11 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the bracket body 2, and the bracket body 2 is detachably connected to the main mounting bracket 4 through the positioning connecting member.

[0041] Specifically, the positioning connecting member and the support sub-portion 11 are respectively provided on two sides of the bracket, and their settings will not interfere with each other. When installing the motor 5, first install the motor 5 on the motor mounting portion, then position and install the auxiliary bracket 1 on the main mounting bracket 4 through the positioning connecting member, and then install the motor 5 on the main mounting bracket 4 through the screw connector, and then remove the auxiliary bracket 1. This setting makes the disassembly and assembly of the auxiliary bracket 1 convenient, without the need to additionally provide a connecting member for the auxiliary bracket 1, improving the usability. In some other embodiments, the positioning connecting member and the support sub-portion 11 are provided on the same side of the bracket body 2 and are spaced apart from each other.

[0042] In some embodiments, the positioning connecting member includes a hook portion 31. The hook portion 31 protrudes from the bracket body 2 and extends in an arc shape along the circumference of the mounting through-hole 41. The main mounting bracket 4 is provided with a clamping hole 42 corresponding to the hook portion 31. After the hook portion 31 extends into the clamping hole 42, rotate the bracket body 2 to make the hook portion 31 clamped to the mounting bracket.

[0043] Specifically, the hook portion 31 protrudes from the bracket body 2. A part of the hook portion 31 extends in an arc shape along the circumference of the bracket body 2. There is a certain gap between the extended hook portion 31 and the bracket body 2. The hook portion 31 passes through the clamping hole 42 as a whole, and then rotate the bracket body 2 to make the hook portion 31 move to a position where it abuts against the rear side of the bracket body 2, realizing the connection between the bracket body 2 and the main mounting bracket 4, and the hook portion 31 can limit the movement and rotation of the bracket body 2. This setting realizes detachable connection, and the disassembly and assembly actions are convenient and simple. In some other embodiments, the positioning connecting member includes a plurality of first magnetic attraction members, and a plurality of second magnetic attraction members are provided on the main mounting bracket 4. The first magnetic attraction members and the second magnetic attraction members are magnetically connected in one-to-one correspondence to realize the installation of the auxiliary bracket 1 on the main mounting bracket 4; in another embodiment, the positioning connecting member can also be a plug-in shaft. There are a plurality of plug-in shafts, and a plurality of plug-in holes are correspondingly provided on the main mounting bracket 4 in one-to-one correspondence. The plug-in shaft and the plug-in hole are in clearance fit.

[0044] In some embodiments, there are multiple engaging hook portions 31. The multiple engaging hook portions 31 are sequentially and spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the mounting through-hole 41. The multiple engaging hook portions 31 all extend in the same direction. There are multiple engaging holes 42, and the engaging holes 42 correspond to the engaging hook portions 31 one by one.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, there are four engaging hook portions 31. The multiple engaging hook portions 31 are evenly and spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the bracket body 2. Each engaging hook portion 31 extends in an arc shape in the clockwise direction. When installing the auxiliary bracket 1 on the main mounting bracket 4, first align the engaging hook portions 31 with the engaging holes 42 and insert them. Then rotate the bracket body 2. At this time, all four engaging hook portions 31 can abut against the rear side of the main mounting bracket 4, thereby increasing the contact area between the bracket body 2 and the main mounting bracket 4. The main mounting bracket 4 is provided with mounting holes 43 corresponding to the mounting seats 51 of the motor 5. At the same time, during the installation of the motor 5, first fix the motor 5 on the bracket body 2, and then rotate and snap the bracket body 2 onto the main mounting bracket 4. At this time, the four mounting seats 51 on the motor 5 just correspond to the four mounting holes 43 on the main mounting bracket 4, and a connecting piece can directly pass through the motor 5 and the mounting holes 43 to fix the motor 5. Such a setting can increase the friction between the bracket body 2 and the main mounting bracket 4, so that the bracket body 2 can be more stably installed on the main mounting bracket 4, ensuring that the auxiliary bracket 1 will not fall off when disassembling and assembling the motor 5, and further improving the safety of the installer during work.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the bracket body 2, the supporting sub-portion 11, and the positioning connecting piece are integrally injection-molded.

[0047] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner, including the auxiliary bracket 1, the motor 5, and the main mounting bracket 4 as described above. The auxiliary bracket 1 is used to mount the motor 5 on the main mounting bracket 4.

[0048] The above has introduced the auxiliary bracket and the air conditioner provided by the embodiments of the present application in detail. Specific examples are used in this article to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and its core idea of the present application; at the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present application, there will be changes in the specific implementation manner and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.
