[0026] Based on the specific embodiments provided in this disclosure, refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a mounting bracket 10 is provided for an air conditioner outdoor unit 700, and includes a mounting plate 100 for mounting the electrical control board 300 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 700. The mounting plate 100 is provided with a wire clamping groove 130 and / or a wire clamping buckle 140 on its periphery.

[0027] Through the above technical solution, in the mounting bracket provided in this disclosure, the mounting plate 100 is provided with a wire-clamping groove 130 and / or a wire-clamping buckle 140 on its periphery. Thus, when the mounting bracket 10 provided in this disclosure is used in the field of electrical control component 710, an electrical control board 300 is mounted on the mounting plate 100, and there are multiple wire harnesses. One end of each wire harness is electrically connected to the electrical control board 300, and the other end is usually connected to different electrical devices. The wire-clamping groove 130 and / or wire-clamping buckle 140 can facilitate the limitation of the position of the wire harness to avoid the wire harness from getting tangled or bent. At the same time, it can also limit the wire harness to the periphery of the mounting plate 100 to prevent the wire harness from interfering with the installation of other components.

[0028] It should be further explained here that "the mounting plate 100 is provided with a wire-locking groove 130 and / or a wire-locking buckle 140 on its periphery" means that the mounting plate 100 can be provided with at least one of the wire-locking groove 130 and the wire-locking buckle 140 on its periphery. That is, the mounting plate 100 can be provided with a wire-locking groove 130, a wire-locking buckle 140, or both. This disclosure does not impose any specific limitations on this.

[0029] For ease of subsequent description, please refer to... Figure 4 As shown, the wire-locking grooves 130 provided on both sides of the mounting plate 100 in the width direction are respectively referred to as the first wire-locking groove 131 and the second wire-locking groove 132. In addition, it should be noted that in this disclosure, "the back side of the mounting plate 100" refers to the side opposite to the side where the electronic control board 300 is located.

[0030] In the mounting bracket 10 provided in this disclosure, as an exemplary embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 3 As shown, the mounting plate 100 can be provided with wire-clamping grooves 130 on opposite sides, and wire-clamping clips 140 can be provided on the other two sides of the mounting plate 100. In this way, the limiting requirements of wire harnesses with different functions can be met. Specifically, the appropriate position of the wire-clamping groove 130 or the wire-clamping clip 140 can be selected for limiting according to the different electrical devices connected to the wire harness. For example, the wire harness can pass through the entire wire-clamping groove 130 and be arranged around the periphery of the mounting plate 100, or the wire harness can pass through the wire-clamping clip 140 to pass from the side of the mounting plate 100 where the electrical control board 300 is mounted to the other side, that is, the back side of the mounting plate 100.

[0031] It should be noted that "the opposite sides of the mounting plate 100" can refer to the two sides of the mounting plate 100 in the width direction, and "the other two sides of the mounting plate 100" can refer to the two sides of the mounting plate 100 in the length direction. Alternatively, "the opposite sides of the mounting plate 100" can also refer to the two sides of the mounting plate 100 in the length direction, and "the other two sides of the mounting plate 100" can also refer to the two sides of the mounting plate 100 in the width direction. This disclosure does not impose any specific limitations on this.

[0032] In the mounting bracket provided in this disclosure, the wire clamping groove 130 can be constructed in any suitable form to further limit the position of the wire harness, and this disclosure does not impose any specific limitations on it. As an exemplary embodiment, refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, at least one first wire stopper 133 may be provided on the wire clamping groove 130. The first wire stopper 133 is used to prevent the wire harness in the wire clamping groove 130 from detaching from the wire clamping groove 130. The wire clamping groove 130 may also be connected to at least one wire outlet groove 135, which is used to allow the wire harness to extend out of the wire clamping groove 130. One end of the first wire stopper 133 may extend with the mounting plate 100, and the other end may extend toward the wire clamping groove 130, so as to lock the wire harness in the wire clamping groove 130 and prevent the wire harness from detaching from the wire clamping groove 130. The cable outlet groove 135 can be used for the cable harness to exit the cable clamping groove 130. In this disclosure, the cable outlet groove 135 of the first cable clamping groove 131 may include a groove provided on the side of the first cable clamping groove 131 and openings provided at both ends of the first cable clamping groove 131 in the length direction of the mounting plate 100. In actual use, the cable harness can enter the first cable clamping groove 131 through the groove and exit through the opening. The cable outlet groove 135 of the second cable clamping groove 132 may also include a through hole provided at the bottom of the second cable clamping groove 132 so that the cable harness can extend from the side of the mounting plate 100 where the electronic control board 300 is provided to the other side of the mounting plate 100.

[0033] In the mounting bracket provided in this disclosure, the cable tray 130 can limit the position of any suitable wire harness according to different actual conditions, and this disclosure does not impose specific limitations in this regard. As an exemplary embodiment, refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a first wire harness 510 can be provided in the wire clamping groove 130 on one side. The first wire harness 510 can be used to electrically connect the control board 300 and the motor 730 of the outdoor unit 700. Alternatively, a second wire harness 520 can be provided in the wire clamping groove 130 on one side. The second wire harness 520 is used to electrically connect the control board 300 and the compressor 740 of the outdoor unit 700. This is because, for the first wire harness 510, the motor 730 is located on the left side of the mounting bracket 10. Thus, one end of the first wire harness 510 is electrically connected to the control board 300, and the other end enters the first wire clamping groove 131 from the outlet groove 135 and extends to the left from the upper end of the first wire clamping groove 131 to electrically connect to the compressor 740. For the second wiring harness 520, the compressor 740 is located on the lower side of the mounting plate 100. Thus, one end of the second wiring harness 520 is electrically connected to the control board 300, and the other end enters the first wire clamping groove 131 from the outlet groove 135 and extends downwards from the lower end of the first wire clamping groove 131 to be electrically connected to the compressor 740. In some other embodiments, the first wiring harness 510 can also be used to electrically connect the control board 300 and electrical components such as the fan assembly 750 of the outdoor unit 700 located on the left side of the mounting plate 100, and the second wiring harness 520 can also be used to electrically connect the control board 300 and electrical components such as the temperature sensor located on the lower side of the mounting plate 100. This disclosure does not impose specific limitations in these respects.

[0034] Based on the above embodiments, the wire-holding groove 130 on the other side can also limit any suitable wire harness according to different actual situations, and this disclosure does not impose specific limitations in this regard. As an exemplary embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a power harness 540 may be provided in the cable tray 130 on the other side. The power harness 540 is used to electrically connect the control board 300 and the control box 720 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 700. And / or, a communication harness 550 may be provided in the cable tray 130 on the other side. The communication harness 550 is used to electrically connect the control board 300 and the control box 720 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 700. This is because both the power harness 540 and the communication harness are connected between the control board 300 and the control box 720. The control box 720 is installed on the second side of the mounting plate 100 and is set at an angle to the mounting plate 100, for example, vertically. In this way, the power harness 540 and the communication harness can enter the second cable tray 132 through the cable outlet 135 provided on the side wall of the second cable tray 132 near the control board 300, so that the position of the power harness 540 and the communication harness is limited to the side of the mounting plate 100. Then, they can exit through other cable outlet 135 provided on the second cable tray 132 and extend toward the back side of the mounting plate 100 to be electrically connected to the control box 720.

[0035] Based on the above embodiments, in order to facilitate the wiring harness passing through some parts of the mounting plate 100 where the control board 300 is provided to the other side of the mounting plate 100, as an exemplary embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the other side of the cable tray 130 can also be provided with an outlet channel 135 for the communication cable harness 550 to extend from the back side of the mounting plate 100. A second cable stop 134 can be provided at the outlet channel 135. In this way, after the communication cable harness enters the second cable tray 132 through the outlet channel 135 provided on the wall of the mounting tray, it can extend to the back side of the mounting plate 100 through the outlet channel 135 provided at the bottom of the second cable tray 132, so as to electrically connect with the electrical control box 720 located on the second side of the mounting plate 100. The second cable stop 134 can limit the cable harness passing through the outlet channel 135, improving the reliability of the cable harness being limited in the second cable tray 132.

[0036] In the mounting bracket provided in this disclosure, the wire clip 140 can limit the position of any suitable wire harness according to different actual conditions, and this disclosure does not impose specific limitations in this regard. As an exemplary embodiment, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, one of the wire clips 140 may include a first clip 141, which may be used to restrain a second wiring harness 520 for electrically connecting the control board 300 and the compressor 740 of the outdoor unit 700 of the air conditioner, and / or, one of the wire clips 140 may also include a second clip 142, which may be used to restrain a third wiring harness 530 for at least electrically connecting the control board 300 and the four-way valve of the outdoor unit 700 of the air conditioner. This is because, for the second wiring harness 520, the compressor 740 is located on the lower side of the mounting plate 100. Thus, one end of the second wiring harness 520 is electrically connected to the control board 300, and the other end enters the first wire clamping groove 131 from the outlet groove 135 and exits from the lower end of the first wire clamping groove 131 into the first snap fastener 141. The first snap fastener 141 defines the wiring path of the second wiring harness 520 and improves the reliability of the second wiring harness 520's position, allowing the second wiring harness 520 to continue extending downwards to electrically connect with the compressor 740. For the third wiring harness 530, the four-way valve is located on the back side of the mounting plate 100. One end of the third wiring harness 530 is electrically connected to the control board 300, and the other end passes through the second snap fastener 142 towards the back side of the mounting plate 100 to electrically connect with the four-way valve. The second snap fastener 142 defines the wiring path of the third wiring harness 530 and improves the reliability of the third wiring harness 530's position. The third wiring harness 530 may also be a wiring harness used to connect the electronic control board 300 and the sensor, or a wiring harness used to connect the electronic control board 300 and the temperature detector, etc. This disclosure does not impose any specific restrictions on it.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments, the wire clip 140 on the other side can also limit any suitable wire harness according to different actual situations, and this disclosure does not impose specific limitations in this regard. As an exemplary embodiment, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the cable clip 140 on the other side may include a third clip 143, which can be used to constrain the power harness 540, which is used to electrically connect the control board 300 and the control box 720 of the outdoor unit 700. Thus, after the power harness 540 exits through the cable outlet 135 above the second cable clip 132, it can extend to the third clip 143, pass through the third clip 143 to extend to the back side of the mounting plate 100, facilitating electrical connection with the control box 720 mounted on the second side of the mounting plate 100. The third clip 143 allows the power harness 540 to pass from the side of the mounting plate 100 where the control board 300 is mounted to the other side where the control box 720 is mounted, thus defining the wiring path of the power harness 540 and improving the reliability of the power harness 540's position.
