Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a support mechanism for an outdoor HVAC unit includes a pair of columns 1, a pair of support rods 2, a screw 3, and a handwheel 4.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a pair of columns 1 are spaced apart and vertically arranged side by side on the exterior wall surface, and a pair of support rods 2 are horizontally arranged on the pair of columns 1 respectively. Diagonal braces 5 are provided below the columns 1, and the support rods 2 and diagonal braces 5 are vertically slidably connected to the columns 1.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the screw 3 is vertically rotatably connected to the column 1 and threadedly connected to the support rod 2 and the diagonal brace 5. The handwheel 4 is located at the upper end of the screw 3. An adjustment hole 21 is horizontally provided through the middle of the support rod 2, and a laser pointer 22 is horizontally inserted into the adjustment hole 21.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a positioning rod 6 is horizontally arranged on the side wall of one of the columns 1. The positioning rod 6 includes a tube 61, a rod 62 and a screw 63. The tube 61 is connected to the column 1, and the column 1 is provided with an insertion rod 64 for inserting the tube 61.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the rod 62 is horizontally slidably connected to the tube 61. A positioning plate 65 is provided at the end of the rod 62 for another column 1 to abut against. The screw 63 is threadedly connected to the tube 61 and is used to press the outer wall of the rod 62.

[0032] When it is necessary to install and fix the external unit, first take out the column 1 with the insertion rod 64, and fix the column 1 at a fixed point to make the column 1 vertical and fix it to the external wall. Then take out the positioning rod 6, and pull the rod body 62 to slide inside the tube body 61 as needed. Finally, tighten the screw 63 to press the rod body 62 to realize the adjustment of the total length of the positioning rod 6.

[0033] Then insert the rod 64 into the tube 61. At this time, the support rod 2 is horizontal and the support plate is vertical. Then take out the other column 1 and let the column 1 lean against the positioning plate 65 to achieve quick positioning and fixation of the other column 1.

[0034] Then, the laser pointer 22 is inserted into the adjustment hole 21 on one of the support rods 2. Subsequently, the handwheel 4 on the other column 1 is rotated. The handwheel 4 drives the screw 3 to rotate, and controls the support rod 2 and the diagonal brace 5 to move vertically in sync. This continues until the laser beam from the laser pointer 22 passes through the adjustment hole 21 on the other column 1, proving that the two support rods 2 are on the same horizontal plane.

[0035] Finally, the external unit can be installed on a pair of support rods 2. Then, the pair of support rods 2 can be controlled to slide vertically in sync as needed to adjust the height of the external unit, thereby meeting different installation requirements and improving practicality.

[0036] Therefore, by setting up a height-adjustable support rod 2, the height of a pair of support rods 2 can be quickly adjusted to be on the same plane during installation, which facilitates the installation and fixing of the outdoor unit, improves construction efficiency, and also enables the adjustment of the height of the outdoor unit to meet different installation needs and improve practicality.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a dovetail block 7 is provided on the support rod 2. The dovetail block 7 is used to fix the lower end face of the external motor. The support rod 2 is provided with a groove 23 for the dovetail block 7 to be inserted and a dovetail groove 24 that connects to the back side of the groove 23 and allows the dovetail block 7 to slide and be inserted.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the support rod 2 is provided with a locking mechanism 8 for fixing the dovetail block 7. The locking mechanism 8 includes a locking rod 81, a locking plate 82, and a hook 83.

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the locking rod 81 is horizontally slidably connected to the support rod 2 and is used to extend into the dovetail groove 24. The locking plate 82 is provided at the outer end of the locking rod 81, and the hook 83 is provided on the outer wall of the support rod 2. The locking plate 82 is provided with a locking hole 84 for the hook 83 to pass through.

[0040] When it is necessary to fix the external mount, first install the dovetail block 7 on the lower end face of the external mount, then place the external mount on a pair of support rods 2, so that the dovetail block 7 is embedded in the groove 23, and then push the external mount to slide horizontally, so that the dovetail block 7 slides into the dovetail groove 24.

[0041] Then, control the locking plate 82 to drive the locking rod 81 to slide inward until the locking rod 81 touches the outer wall of the dovetail block 7. Press the locking plate 82 hard so that the hook 83 passes through the locking hole 84 on the locking plate 82, thereby fixing the locking plate 82 and the locking rod 81, thus fixing the dovetail block 7 and completing the snap-fit ​​fixing of the external mounting unit, thereby achieving the quick installation and fixing of the external mounting unit.

[0042] The specific embodiments are merely explanations of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to these embodiments without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
