[0036] An installation bracket for an air conditioner outdoor unit generally includes a main bracket and a support bracket. One end of the main bracket is installed on the window frame, and the other end extends out of the window and is used to support the air conditioner outdoor unit. However, the size specifications of existing installation brackets are fixed, resulting in the installation brackets being unable to adapt well to different installation environments, thus causing user complaints.

[0037] Specifically, referring to Figure 2 , the first direction refers to the direction parallel or nearly parallel to the central axis of the window, that is, Figure 2 the front-back direction in Figure 2 . The window-wall spacing refers to the spacing between the window frame and the outer wall surface in the first direction, as shown by the distance L in Figure 2 . It can be understood that the window-wall spacing is related to the thickness of the wall where the window is located and the installation position of the window frame on the window, so the window-wall spacing may vary due to different buildings, resulting in the fixed-size installation brackets being unable to adapt well to different window-wall spacings.

[0038] In view of this, the present utility model proposes an installation bracket, which can improve the adaptability of the installation bracket in use, so as to be able to adapt to different installation environments.

[0039] Specifically, referring to Figures 1 to 4 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the installation bracket includes:

[0040] A main bracket 10, including a window-installing bracket 11 and a load-bearing bracket 12 connected to each other. The window-installing bracket 11 can be installed on the window frame, and the load-bearing bracket 12 extends to the outside of the window along the first direction (i.e., the front-back direction in the figure). The air conditioner outdoor unit is arranged on the upper side of the load-bearing bracket 12, and

[0041] A support bracket 20, the upper end of the support bracket 20 is connected to the load-bearing bracket 12, and the lower end is used to abut against the outer wall surface. The support bracket 20 can adjust its length so that the lower end of the support bracket 20 can be adapted to abut against the outer wall surface.

[0042] In the technical solution of the present utility model, since the length of the support bracket 20 is adjustable, on the premise that the window-installing bracket 11 can be correctly installed on the window frame, the user can appropriately adjust the length of the support bracket 20 according to different window-wall spacings, so that the lower end of the support bracket 20 just abuts against the outer wall surface, so that the load-bearing bracket 12 can be in a substantially horizontal state, so that the air conditioner outdoor unit can be stably placed on the main bracket 10. In the technical solution of the present utility model, by setting the support bracket 20 as a structure with adjustable length, the adaptability and convenience of the installation bracket in use can be improved, so that the installation bracket can adapt to different window-wall spacings, that is, it can be flexibly applicable to different installation environments.

[0043] It can be understood that the air conditioner of the present utility model can be a split-type air conditioner that is convenient for users to install personally. It uses flexible refrigerant pipes to connect the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and injects refrigerant into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. In this way, when the user installs the equipment by himself, he only needs to fix the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner respectively, without assembling the refrigerant pipes and filling the refrigerant, thus reducing the installation difficulty and realizing personal installation by the user.

[0044] However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the air conditioner of the present utility model can also be a common split-type air conditioner or an integrated air conditioner, such as a window air conditioner integrated machine. At this time, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner refers to the part of the window air conditioner that extends to the outdoor side.

[0045] Furthermore, the air conditioner further includes a compressor (not shown in the drawings). The compressor is arranged in the indoor unit of the air conditioner, and the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger through a flexible refrigerant pipe. In this way, the weight of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can be reduced, thus facilitating the user to install the outdoor unit of the air conditioner by himself. Optionally, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also has a noise reduction structure corresponding to the compressor. For example, the noise reduction structure includes sound insulation cotton surrounding the outer circumference of the compressor. The present application does not make specific limitations on this. In this way, the working noise of the compressor and the indoor unit of the air conditioner can be reduced, thus improving the use experience. Of course, in other embodiments, the compressor can also be arranged in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0046] Furthermore, the air conditioner further includes an electric control box (not shown in the drawings). The electric control box is arranged in the indoor unit of the air conditioner. In this way, the weight of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can be further reduced, thus facilitating the user to install the outdoor unit of the air conditioner by himself. Of course, in other embodiments, the electric control box can also be arranged in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0047] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , optionally, the support bracket 20 includes a first support portion 21 and a second support portion 22 that are connected and can move relative to each other. The upper end of the first support portion 21 is connected to the load-bearing bracket 12. One end of the second support portion 22 is connected to the lower end of the first support portion 21, and the other end is used to abut against the outer wall surface. In this way, the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the support bracket 20 can also be in other structural forms to achieve the function of adjustable length. For example, the support bracket 20 can be configured as a multi-segment support rod that can be detachably connected, and the head and tail ends of the support rod are connected by threads, so that the installation quantity of the support rod can be selected according to the window-wall spacing.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 2, in the direction close to the window installation bracket 11, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 extend obliquely downward. Thus, both the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 extend obliquely downward, which can make the abutting position of the support bracket 20 on the outer wall surface farther away from the window installation bracket 11, facilitating the improvement of the bearing capacity of the bearing bracket 12. Moreover, it is also beneficial to the force transmission between the second support portion 22 and the first support portion 21.

[0049] Of course, in other embodiments, it may also be that the first support portion 21 extends obliquely downward in the direction away from the window installation bracket 11; it may also be that the second support portion 22 extends obliquely upward in the direction close to the window installation bracket 11, or the second support portion 22 extends in the horizontal direction, or the first support portion 21 extends vertically downward.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 , optionally, one of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 is provided with a sliding groove 224, and the other is slidably connected to the sliding groove 224. In this way, the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the sliding groove 224 may not be provided, but instead configured as meshing gears and racks, with the gear provided on one of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, and the rack provided on the other.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , optionally, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 extend in the same direction. That is, the inclination angle of the first support portion 21 relative to the horizontal plane is set the same as the inclination angle of the second support portion 22 relative to the horizontal plane. Further, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 extend in a straight line. In this way, the force transmission ability of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 can be improved, and it is beneficial to improve the connection reliability between the two.

[0052] It can be understood that in the embodiment where both the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 extend obliquely downward in the direction close to the window installation bracket 11, when the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 extend in a straight line, a triangular force structure can be formed among the support bracket 20, the bearing bracket 12, the window installation bracket 11 and the outer wall, thereby further improving the installation reliability and stability of the installation bracket. Of course, in other embodiments, it may also be that the inclination angles of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 relative to the horizontal plane are set differently, or the inclination angles of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 relative to the horizontal plane are set differently.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, optionally, the first support portion 22 has a limiting groove 211, a sliding groove 224 is provided in the second support portion 22 and buckles on the outer side surface of the limiting groove 211. A plurality of first mounting holes 212 are distributed at intervals in the length direction of the groove side wall of the limiting groove 211. A second mounting hole 223 is provided in the groove side wall of the sliding groove 224 corresponding to the first mounting hole 212, and the second mounting hole 223 is installed in the first mounting hole 212 through a fastener. Specifically, optionally, the fastener can be a bolt shown in the figure or a buckle, etc. In this way, the installation and disassembly of the second support portion 22 and the first support portion 21 are realized through the fastener, and the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the second mounting hole 223 may not be provided, and the second support portion 22 is correspondingly provided with an elastic clamping protrusion, and the elastic clamping protrusion can be clamped into or disengaged from the first mounting hole 212 and can be selectively installed in one of the plurality of first mounting holes 212.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 , optionally, the second support portion 22 is provided with a sliding groove 224, and the outer side surface of the groove wall of the limiting groove 211 is slidably abutted against the inner side surface of the groove wall of the sliding groove 224. Two first mounting holes 212 are provided on the same groove side wall of the sliding groove 224. That is, the sliding groove 224 buckles on the outer side surface of the limiting groove 211, the bottom wall of the limiting groove 211 and the bottom surface of the sliding groove 224 are slidably abutted, and the groove side wall of the limiting groove 211 and the groove side surface of the sliding groove 224 are slidably abutted. In this way, not only can the smoothness of the movement of the second support portion 22 on the first support portion 21 be improved, but also the problem of left - right shaking of the second support portion 22 and the resulting abnormal noise can be avoided. Secondly, the second support portion 22 is selectively installed with the fastener and two of the plurality of first mounting holes 212, which can improve the installation stability of the second support portion 22. Furthermore, the groove side wall of the sliding groove 224 is exposed outside, so that the second mounting hole 223 can be directly observed, which is conducive to the user's operation of moving the second support portion 22 and aligning the second mounting hole 223 with the first mounting hole 212.

[0055] Of course, in other embodiments, it may also be that the limiting groove 211 is provided in the second support portion 22 and the sliding groove 224 is provided in the first support portion 21; or only one first mounting hole 212 is provided on the same groove side wall of the sliding groove 224, or the limiting groove 211 is not provided.

[0056] In the related art, in order to adjust the installation position of the support bracket 20 on the load - bearing bracket 12, it is possible to select to open a plurality of holes along the first direction on the load - bearing bracket 12 for the support bracket 20 to be selectively installed through a fastener in the plurality of holes, so as to adjust the installation position of the support bracket 20 on the load - bearing bracket 12. However, the structure of opening many holes will obviously weaken the structural strength and stiffness of the load - bearing bracket 12. As a part directly supporting the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, the structural performance of the load - bearing bracket 12 is crucial.

[0057] Therefore, please refer toFigure 1 and Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present utility model, optionally, the installation position of the upper end of the support bracket 20 on the bearing bracket 12 is relatively fixed in the first direction and is located at one end of the bearing bracket 12 away from the window installation bracket 11. That is, the installation position of the upper end of the support bracket 20 on the bearing bracket 12 is not adjustable. Thus, the support bracket 20 of this embodiment can achieve the adaptive abutment against the outer wall surface by adjusting its own length, and can avoid the problem that the structural performance of the bearing bracket 12 becomes weak due to the opening of multiple hole structures.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 In the embodiment, optionally, one of the support bracket 20 and the bearing bracket 12 is provided with a positioning shaft convex 23, and the other is provided with a positioning hole 122. The positioning shaft convex 23 is in positioning cooperation with the positioning hole 122 in the first direction. Thus, the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the upper end of the support bracket 20 can also be directly welded and fixed on the bearing bracket 12.

[0059] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In the embodiment, optionally, the lower side surface of the bearing bracket 12 is provided with an installation groove 121. The groove side wall of the installation groove 121 is provided with a positioning hole 122. The groove opening of the installation groove 121 is bent inwards to form a first flanging 123. The upper end of the support bracket 20 is inserted into the installation groove 121 and has two opposite limiting side walls 213. The limiting side walls 213 are abutted against the first flanging 123 and are provided with a positioning shaft convex 23. Thus, through the positioning cooperation between the limiting side walls 213 and the first flanging 123, the problem that the upper end of the support bracket 20 shakes left and right on the bearing bracket 12 can be avoided, thereby improving the installation stability of the support bracket 20. Of course, in other embodiments, the first flanging 123 can also not be provided, and the groove side wall of the installation groove 121 directly abuts against the limiting side walls 213; or the installation groove 121 can not be provided.

[0060] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In the embodiment, optionally, the upper end of the support bracket 20 is provided with a limiting groove 211. The groove side wall of the limiting groove 211 is configured as a limiting side wall 213. The groove bottom wall of the limiting groove 211 is bent towards the side where the limiting side wall 213 is located to form an installation flanging 214. The upper side surface of the installation flanging 214 abuts against the groove bottom surface of the installation groove 121. Thus, the force exerted by the support bracket 20 from the outer wall surface can be transmitted to the groove bottom surface of the installation groove 121 through the installation flanging 214 and then transmitted to the air conditioner outdoor unit on the bearing bracket 12. That is, the support function of the support bracket 20 on the bearing bracket 12 is realized, and the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the installation flanging 214 can also not be provided.

[0061] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4, optionally, the upper side edge of the limiting side wall 213 is bent inward to form a third flanging 216, and the upper side surface of the third flanging 216 abuts against the bottom surface of the installation groove 121. That is, the upper side surface of the third flanging 216 is flush with the upper side surface of the installation flanging 214. In this way, the third flanging 216 and the installation flanging 214 together play a supporting role for the bearing bracket 12, which can improve the installation reliability of the bearing bracket. Of course, in other embodiments, only the third flanging 216 can be provided without the installation flanging 214.

[0062] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , optionally, an installation protrusion 215 also protrudes from the outer side surface of the limiting side wall 213, and the positioning hole 122 is configured as an elongated hole extending in the up-down direction. The positioning shaft protrusion 23 can move and rotate in the positioning hole 122 in the up-down direction, so that the lower end of the support bracket 20 can rotate relative to the positioning hole 122 and approach or move away from the outer wall surface. In this way, the positioning shaft protrusion 23 and the positioning hole 122 cooperate with each other, and additionally provide a rotational freedom degree for the support bracket 20. This rotational freedom degree combined with the length adjustment function of the support bracket 20 can make the operation of the support bracket 20 adapting to abut against the outer wall surface more flexible and convenient. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning shaft protrusion 23 and the positioning hole 122 can also not be provided, that is, the upper end of the support bracket 20 cannot rotate relative to the bearing bracket 12.

[0063] Specifically, the support bracket 20 has a first posture and a second posture, and can move and switch between the first posture and the second posture, where Figures 1 to 4 the support bracket 20 in Figure 5 is in the first posture,

[0064] the support bracket 20 in

[0065] is in the second posture. In the first posture, the positioning shaft protrusion 23 is located at the upper end of the positioning hole 122, the upper side surface of the installation flanging 214 abuts against the bottom surface of the installation groove 121 in parallel, and the lower side surface of the installation protrusion 215 abuts against the upper side surface of the first flanging 123 in parallel; in the second posture, the positioning shaft protrusion 23 is located at the lower end of the positioning hole 122, the upper side surface of the installation flanging 214 abuts against the bottom surface of the installation groove 121 in an intersecting manner, and the lower side surface of the installation protrusion 215 abuts against the upper side surface of the first flanging 123 in an intersecting manner or is disengaged.

[0064] In this way, on the one hand, the installation protrusion 215 abuts against the upper side surface of the first flanging 123, which can limit the downward movement tendency of the upper end of the support bracket 20. On the other hand, the installation flanging 214 abuts against the bottom surface of the installation groove 121, which can limit the upward movement tendency of the upper end of the support bracket 20, so that the relative position of the upper end of the support bracket 20 in the up-down direction is more stable and reliable.

[0065] Secondly, the positioning boss 23 can move up and down within the positioning hole 122, allowing the mounting boss 215 and the mounting flange 214 to rotatably change their relative posture and position, thereby enabling the upper end of the support bracket 20 to rotate relative to the load-bearing bracket 12 while maintaining effective contact and force transmission between the mounting flange 214 and the bottom surface of the mounting groove 121. This structure is simple and easy to implement.
