[0054] Mounting brackets for air conditioner outdoor units typically consist of a main bracket and a support bracket. One end of the main bracket is mounted to the window frame, and the other end extends outside the window. It includes a load-bearing bracket to support and support the outdoor unit. One end of the support bracket is connected to the load-bearing bracket, and the other end rests against the exterior wall. The load-bearing bracket usually has multiple through holes, allowing the support bracket to be installed in one of these holes and its position on the main bracket to be adjusted to fit window sills of different widths. However, the presence of multiple through holes weakens the structural strength and rigidity of the load-bearing bracket, making it more prone to structural failure and increasing the risk of the outdoor unit accidentally falling.

[0055] In view of this, the present invention proposes an installation bracket for the installation of an outdoor air conditioner unit, which can improve the structural strength and rigidity of the load-bearing bracket, thereby improving the installation reliability of the outdoor air conditioner unit.

[0056] Please see Figures 1 to 7 In one embodiment of this utility model, the mounting bracket includes:

[0057] The main support 10 includes a load-bearing support 12 and a reinforcing support 13 disposed on the load-bearing support 12. The load-bearing support 12 extends along a first direction to the outer side of the window, and the outdoor air conditioning unit 52 is disposed on the upper side of the load-bearing support 12; and

[0058] Support bracket 20, the upper end of which is connected to load-bearing bracket 12, and the lower end which is used to abut against the exterior wall and / or window sill.

[0059] In this utility model, by setting a reinforcing bracket 13 on the load-bearing bracket 12, the structural strength of the load-bearing bracket 12 can be improved. Even if the load-bearing bracket 12 has a through hole structure, it can still maintain a certain structural strength and rigidity with the help of the reinforcing bracket 13, thereby ensuring that it maintains the stability and effectiveness of the structure in the process of supporting the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner, and thus improving the installation reliability of the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner.

[0060] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Optionally, in one embodiment, the main support 10 further includes a window mounting bracket 11 connected to the load-bearing support 12, and the window mounting bracket 11 can be installed on the window frame. Thus, by installing the window mounting bracket 11 on a structurally strong window frame, the installation operation of the bracket is facilitated, and the installation reliability of the bracket is improved. Of course, in other embodiments, the window mounting bracket 11 can also be installed on the wall of the window, or on an inner or outer wall.

[0061] It is understood that the air conditioner of this utility model can be a split-type air conditioner that is easy for users to install themselves. It uses flexible refrigerant pipes to connect the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit 52, and refrigerant is injected into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. In this way, when users install the equipment themselves, they only need to fix the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 52 separately, without assembling the refrigerant pipes and adding refrigerant, thereby reducing the difficulty of installation and realizing individual installation by users.

[0062] However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the air conditioner of this utility model can also be a common split air conditioner or an integrated air conditioner, such as a window air conditioner integrated unit. In this case, the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner refers to the part of the window air conditioner that extends to the outside.

[0063] Furthermore, the air conditioner also includes a compressor (not shown in the attached drawings), which is located in the indoor unit and connected to the outdoor heat exchanger via a flexible refrigerant pipe. This reduces the weight of the outdoor unit 52, making it easier for users to install it themselves. Optionally, the indoor unit also includes a noise reduction structure corresponding to the compressor, such as sound-absorbing cotton surrounding the compressor; this application does not specifically limit this. This reduces the operating noise of the compressor and the indoor unit, thereby improving the user experience. Of course, in other embodiments, the compressor can also be located in the outdoor unit 52.

[0064] Furthermore, the air conditioner also includes an electrical control box (not shown in the attached drawings), which is located in the indoor unit of the air conditioner. This further reduces the weight of the outdoor unit 52, making it easier for users to install the outdoor unit 52 themselves. Of course, in other embodiments, the electrical control box can also be located in the outdoor unit 52.

[0065] In one embodiment, optionally, the support bracket 20 is provided with a first positioning part, and the reinforcing bracket 13 is provided with a corresponding second positioning part. The first positioning part and the second positioning part cooperate in an upper limit engagement in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction. Thus, through the cooperation of the first positioning part and the second positioning part, the swaying of the support bracket 20 in the second direction can be limited, thereby improving the installation stability of the support bracket 20. It can be understood that the reinforcing bracket 13 also serves a limiting function, thus enriching the functional role of the reinforcing bracket 13. Of course, in other embodiments, the first positioning part and the second positioning part may not be provided, or the support bracket 20 and the reinforcing bracket 13 may not be connected.

[0066] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 11 In one embodiment, the reinforcing bracket 13 has two opposing first sidewalls 131 in a second direction, and the supporting bracket 20 has corresponding opposing second sidewalls 201. The first sidewall 131 is a first positioning part, and the second sidewall 201 is a second positioning part. The first sidewall 131 is positioned and abuts against the second sidewall 201. Thus, the displacement of the supporting bracket 20 can be limited by the mutual abutment of the first sidewall 131 and the second sidewall 201, resulting in a simple and easy-to-implement structure. Alternatively, in other embodiments, one of the first and second positioning parts can be a positioning protrusion, and the other a corresponding positioning groove, allowing the positioning protrusion to engage with the positioning groove.

[0067] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first direction refers to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The directions shown are from back to front, and the second direction refers to the left and right directions in the diagram. These directions are defined by default under the scenario that the mounting bracket and the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner are correctly installed on the window 51. If there are other meanings, they will be explained in detail.

[0068] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 11In one embodiment, the lower side of the load-bearing bracket 12 is provided with a downward-facing mounting groove 121. A reinforcing bracket 13 is disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting groove 121. The second sidewall 201 extends into the mounting groove 121 and is positioned and abuts against the edge of the groove opening. Thus, the upper edge of the second sidewall 201 is abutted by the first sidewall 131, and the upper middle portion of the second sidewall 201 is abutted by the edge of the groove opening of the mounting groove 121. That is, the second sidewall 201 is simultaneously abutted by both the first sidewall 131 and the edge of the groove opening of the mounting groove 121, which further reduces the risk of the support bracket 20 swaying in the second direction, thereby further improving the installation stability of the support bracket 20. Of course, in other embodiments, the edge of the groove opening of the mounting groove 121 and the second sidewall 201 may be spaced apart in the second direction.

[0069] It is understood that in this embodiment, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 121 is the supporting structure of the load-bearing bracket 12. The bottom wall of the mounting groove 121 abuts against the lower surface of the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner and bears and transmits the weight from the outdoor unit 52, making it more prone to plastic deformation and structural failure. By placing the reinforcing bracket 13 on the bottom surface of the mounting groove 121, the thickness of the bottom wall of the mounting groove is increased as a whole. That is, the local structural strength and rigidity of the bottom wall of the mounting groove 121 can be specifically strengthened, which is more conducive to improving the structural strength and rigidity of the load-bearing bracket 12. Tests have shown that the load-bearing bracket 12 with the reinforcing bracket 13 installed can withstand a weight of 180kg without deformation or structural failure. Of course, in other embodiments, the reinforcing bracket 13 can also be placed on the side wall of the mounting groove 121, or the reinforcing bracket 13 can be placed on both the bottom wall and the side wall of the mounting groove 121.

[0070] Please see Figure 11 In one embodiment, a third segment 123a extends inward from the opening of the mounting groove 121, and a fourth segment 123b extends downward from the inner edge of the third segment 123a. The fourth segment 123b abuts against the outer surface of the second sidewall 201. That is, the edge of the opening of the mounting groove 121 includes the third segment 123a and the fourth segment 123b. Thus, on the one hand, by using the surface of the fourth segment 123b to abut against the second sidewall 201, the effective contact area between the edge of the mounting groove 121 and the second sidewall 201 can be increased, thereby improving the installation stability of the support bracket 20 within the mounting groove 121. On the other hand, by providing the third segment 123a and the fourth segment 123b, the local structural strength of the edge of the mounting groove 121 can be increased. Of course, in other embodiments, the third segment 123a and the fourth segment 123b may not be provided.

[0071] Specifically, the load-bearing bracket 12 can be made of metal and formed by stamping. The third segment 123a is bent inward from the opening of the mounting groove 121121, and the fourth segment 123b is bent downward from the inner edge of the third segment 123a. This results in a structure with high strength and is easy to implement. Of course, the material and forming process of the load-bearing bracket 12 can also be other, such as injection molding.

[0072] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 11 In one embodiment, the first sidewall 131 includes a first segment 131a extending downward from the side edge of the reinforcing bracket 13 and a second segment 131b extending outward from the lower side edge of the first segment 131a. The first segment 131a abuts against the outer surface of the second sidewall 201. Thus, on the one hand, by using the surface of the first segment 131a to abut against the second sidewall 201, the effective contact area between the reinforcing bracket 13 and the second sidewall 201 can be increased, thereby improving the installation stability of the support bracket 20. On the other hand, by providing the first segment 131a and the second segment 131b, the local structural strength of the side edge of the reinforcing bracket 13 can be increased. Of course, in other embodiments, the first segment 131a and the second segment 131b may not be provided.

[0073] Optionally, the reinforcing bracket 13 is made of metal and formed by stamping. The first segment 131a is bent downward from the side edge of the reinforcing bracket 13, and the second segment 131b is bent outward from the lower side edge of the first segment 131a. This results in high structural strength and ease of implementation. Of course, the material and forming process of the load-bearing bracket 12 can also be other, such as injection molding.

[0074] Optionally, the support bracket 20 can move along a first direction on the load-bearing bracket 12 to adjust its installation position on the load-bearing bracket 12. Thus, the installation position of the support bracket 20 on the load-bearing bracket 12 is adjustable, making the position of the abutment surface of the support bracket 20, which supports the exterior wall and / or window sill, relative to the plane of the window frame adjustable. That is, the distance between the abutment surface of the support bracket 20 and the plane of the window frame is adjustable, and this adjustable distance can accommodate window sills of different widths. This allows the user to easily adjust the installation position of the support bracket 20 on the main bracket 10 to ensure that the support bracket 20 abuts well against the exterior wall and / or window sill, and that the mounting bracket can adapt well to different window sill widths.

[0075] It should be noted that the support bracket 20 can move on the load-bearing bracket 12 in the first direction (i.e., the back-to-forward direction in the figure), which does not specifically mean that the support bracket 20 can only move in the back-to-forward direction. That is, it also includes the case that the support bracket 20 can move in the front-to-back direction.

[0076] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 11 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 Optionally, in one embodiment, one of the support bracket 20 and the main bracket 10 is provided with a guide protrusion 24, and the other is provided with a guide groove 101 extending along a first direction. The guide protrusion 24 can slide within the guide groove 101. Thus, by utilizing the cooperation of the guide protrusion 24 and the guide groove 101, the support bracket 20 can be guided and positioned when it moves along the first direction, thereby improving the smoothness and stability of the position adjustment operation of the support bracket 20. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide protrusion 24 and the guide groove 101 may not be provided.

[0077] Please see Figure 13 In one embodiment, the upper end of the support bracket 20 is provided with a guide protrusion 24. The load-bearing bracket 12 and the reinforcing bracket 13 together define a guide groove 101. The guide protrusion 24 can slide within the guide groove 101 to adjust the installation position of the support bracket 20 on the load-bearing bracket 12. Thus, the guide groove 101 is defined by the load-bearing bracket 12 and the reinforcing bracket 13, resulting in a simple and easy-to-implement structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide protrusion 24 can be located on the load-bearing bracket 12 or the reinforcing bracket 13, and the guide groove 101 can be located on the support bracket 20.

[0078] It is worth mentioning that you should refer to Figure 11 In the embodiment where the support bracket 20 has a first segment 131a and the load-bearing bracket 12 has a fourth segment 123b, the two first segments 131a are spaced apart in the left-right direction, the two fourth segments 123b are spaced apart in the left-right direction, and the first segments 131a and the fourth segments 123b are spaced apart in the up-down direction. The first segments 131a, the second segments 131b, the third segments 123a, and the fourth segments 123b together define the guide groove 101. That is, the first segments 131a and the fourth segments 123b serve as the sidewalls of the guide groove 101. This increases the surface area of ​​the sidewalls of the guide groove 101, thereby increasing the effective contact area between the guide groove 101 and the guide protrusion 24, and thus improving the smoothness and stability of the guide protrusion 24 sliding within the guide groove 101.

[0079] Please see Figure 6In one embodiment, the load-bearing bracket 12 has a near-window end, and the reinforcing bracket 13 has a stop protrusion 134 at one end near the near-window end. The upper end of the supporting bracket 20 can be limited to abut against the side of the stop protrusion 134 away from the near-window end. Thus, the stop protrusion 134 can limit the extreme position of the supporting bracket 20's movement in a direction opposite to the first direction, thereby preventing the supporting bracket 20 from moving excessively towards the window and dislodging from the mounting groove 121. Furthermore, by using the reinforcing bracket 13 to achieve this limiting effect, the functional role of the reinforcing bracket 13 can be enriched. Of course, in other embodiments, the stop protrusion 134 may not be provided, or it may be provided on the load-bearing bracket 12.

[0080] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 8 In one embodiment, the guide groove 101 penetrates the end face of the load-bearing bracket 12 away from the window and forms an installation opening 126. The guide protrusion 24 can be inserted into the guide groove 101 through the installation opening 126. The mounting bracket also includes a cover 40 that seals the installation opening 126. Specifically, when installing the support bracket 20, the guide protrusion 24 can be inserted into the installation groove 121 from the end of the load-bearing bracket 12 with the installation opening 126, and the cover 40 is used to restrict the guide protrusion 24 from detaching from the installation opening 126, thereby ensuring that the guide protrusion 24 can move stably in the first direction within the installation groove 121, thereby improving the ease and reliability of installation of the support bracket 20 and the load-bearing bracket 12. Of course, in other embodiments, such as in embodiments where the guide protrusion 24 and the support bracket 20 are separately configured, the installation opening 126 and the cover may not be provided.

[0081] Please refer to the following: Figure 7 Optionally, the cover 40 is provided with a mounting buckle 41, and the reinforcing bracket 13 is provided with a corresponding engaging notch 133, with the mounting buckle 41 engaging in the engaging notch 133. Thus, using the reinforcing bracket 13 to install the cover 40 notch ...

[0082] It is understood that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcing bracket 13, in addition to serving as a reinforcing structure for the load-bearing bracket 12, also serves as a rear limiting structure for supporting the bracket 20 and an installation structure for the cover 40. That is, by integrating these structures onto the same part, it is beneficial to simplify the number of parts of the mounting bracket and reduce its manufacturing cost.

[0083] Please see Figure 8 and Figure 9 Optionally, in one embodiment, the support bracket 20 has a first position on the load-bearing bracket 12. In the first position, the guide protrusion 24 disengages from the guide groove 101 to allow the support bracket 20 to rotate relative to the load-bearing bracket 12, and to allow the support bracket 20 to have an unfolded state and a retracted state. In the retracted state, the lower end of the support bracket 20 is positioned close to the load-bearing bracket 12. Specifically, when the mounting bracket is factory-installed, the support bracket 20 can be pre-installed on the main bracket 10, and the support bracket 20 can be rotated to the retracted state (e.g., ...). Figure 9 As shown), the lower end of the support bracket 20 and the load-bearing bracket 12 are fixed together using cable ties, tape, etc. After the user takes the installation bracket out of the packaging box, they only need to cut the cable ties or tape, and the lower end of the support bracket 20 will rotate downwards to the unfolded state under its own weight (as shown). Figure 8 (As shown). This reduces the overall size and volume of the mounting bracket, facilitating its storage and transportation. Furthermore, users do not need to assemble the mounting bracket themselves; they can simply remove it from the packaging and use it directly, thus improving its ease of use. Of course, in other embodiments, the support bracket 20 may not have the ability to rotate relative to the load-bearing bracket 12.

[0084] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 To allow the support bracket 20 to rotate freely in the first position, in one embodiment, the reinforcing bracket 13 optionally has a clearance notch 132 corresponding to the first position, and the guide protrusion 24 can rotate and extend into the clearance notch 132. Specifically, the clearance notch 132 is located on the first sidewall 131 of the reinforcing bracket 13. When the reinforcing bracket 13 is in the unfolded state, the guide protrusion 24 is located below the clearance notch 132 and can slide into the guide groove 101 as the support bracket 20 moves in the first direction. When the reinforcing bracket 13 is in the retracted state, the rotation trajectory of the guide protrusion 24 is partially located within the clearance notch 132. Thus, by setting the clearance notch 132, the problem of interference between the guide protrusion 24 and the reinforcing bracket 13 during rotation can be effectively avoided, and the reinforcing bracket 13 can be allowed to extend to the side of the guide protrusion 24 (when the support bracket 20 is in the first position) away from the window mounting bracket 11, thereby increasing the effective length of the reinforcing bracket 13 and further enhancing the structural reinforcement effect of the reinforcing bracket 13 on the load-bearing bracket 12. Of course, in other embodiments, the avoidance notch 132 may not be provided, and the end face of the reinforcing bracket 13 may be located on the side of the guide protrusion 24 (at which time the support bracket 20 is in the first position) close to the window mounting bracket 11.

[0085] Alternatively, the reinforcing bracket 13 can be welded and fixed to the load-bearing bracket 12 to improve the connection strength between the two. Specifically, the reinforcing bracket 13 is welded and fixed to the lower side of the load-bearing bracket 12, thus avoiding the problem of the reinforcing bracket 13's structure being exposed on the upper surface of the load-bearing bracket 12, which could interfere with the displacement of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Of course, in other embodiments, the reinforcing bracket 13 can also be installed on the load-bearing bracket 12 by means of screwing, riveting, or other methods.

[0086] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 13 In one embodiment, the reinforcing bracket 13 is provided with a plurality of positioning through holes 135, and the load-bearing bracket 12 is provided with a plurality of positioning protrusions 129. The positioning protrusions 129 are adapted to be embedded in the positioning through holes 135. The shape and / or size and / or number of the positioning through holes 135 located on opposite sides of the reinforcing bracket 13 are configured to be different.

[0087] Specifically, you may refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The reinforcing bracket 13 has positioning through holes 135 on both sides of its length in the first direction. Two positioning through holes 135 are spaced apart in the left-right direction on the side closer to the window, while one positioning through hole 135 is on the side farther from the window. These three positioning through holes 135 are approximately circular and of roughly the same size. Thus, in this embodiment, the three positioning through holes 135 are arranged in a roughly triangular pattern. This arrangement ensures a more stable and reliable positioning effect when the positioning through holes 135 cooperate with the positioning protrusion 129. Furthermore, it prevents mistaken installation, avoiding the problem of the reinforcing bracket 13 and the load-bearing bracket 12 being installed in reverse order during the manufacturing process.

[0088] Of course, in other embodiments, the shape, size, number and arrangement of the positioning through holes 135 can also be in other forms. For example, a positioning through hole 135 is provided on each of the opposite sides of the reinforcing bracket 13, one of the positioning through holes 135 is a circular hole and the other positioning through hole 135 is a square hole; or the two positioning through holes 135 are one large and one small, and the size of the positioning protrusion 129 is also set to be one large and one small accordingly.

[0089] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4In one embodiment, the lower surface of the load-bearing bracket 12 is provided with a mounting groove 121, and the mounting groove 121 is provided with a plurality of limiting positions 122 distributed at intervals along the first direction; the mounting bracket also includes a limiting member 30, which is movably disposed at the upper end of the support bracket 20. The limiting member 30 includes a limiting part 31 and a pushing part 32 connected to each other. The limiting part 31 can be selectively locked and installed with one of the plurality of limiting positions 122. The pushing part 32 is exposed outside the support bracket 20 and is used for pushing to cause the limiting part 31 to disengage from the limiting position 122.

[0090] Specifically, by engaging the limiting part 31 with the limiting slot 122, the support bracket 20 can be relatively fixed at a certain position on the load-bearing bracket 12. Furthermore, by selectively engaging the limiting part 31 with one of the multiple limiting slots 122, the relative position of the support bracket 20 on the load-bearing bracket 12 can be adjusted, thereby allowing the mounting bracket to adapt to window sills of different widths. Before installing the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, the user needs to first assemble the mounting bracket on the outside of the window. For example, first extend the entire mounting bracket out of the window, then install the window mounting bracket 11 on the window frame, and then adjust the position of the support bracket 20 on the load-bearing bracket 12 so that the lower end of the support bracket 20 can abut against the outer wall surface below the window, and keep the load-bearing bracket 12 in a horizontal or approximately horizontal position, so that the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can be stably placed on the load-bearing bracket 12.

[0091] In this embodiment, during the process of adjusting the relative position of the support bracket 20, the user can easily observe and reach the exposed push part 32, and can apply force to the push part 32, for example, by pressing the push part 32 directly with a finger, so as to cause the limiting part 31 to disengage from or engage with the limiting slot 122, and realize the selective installation of the limiting part 31 with one of the multiple limiting slots 122, thereby improving the convenience of adjusting the position of the support bracket 20.

[0092] Please see Figures 3 to 6 Optionally, in one embodiment, the support bracket 20 is provided with a first through hole 21, and the pushing part 32 is correspondingly installed in the first through hole 21, with the portion of the pushing part 32 passing through the first through hole 21 used for pushing. Thus, the first through hole 21 guides and positions the pushing part 32, improving the smoothness and stability of its movement and thereby enhancing ease of operation. Of course, in other embodiments, the first through hole 21 may not be provided, and the pushing part 32 may be directly exposed on the outside of the support bracket 20.

[0093] Optionally, the inner edge of the first through hole 21 is provided with a guide flange 212. The inner circumferential surface of the guide flange 212 and the hole wall surface of the first through hole 21 together form a mating surface for the sliding of the pushing part 32. It is understood that the larger the surface area of ​​this mating surface, the more beneficial it is to the smoothness and stability of the movement of the pushing part 32, and the lower the risk of the pushing part 32 accidentally disengaging from the support bracket 20. It should be noted that the guide flange 212 can be a complete annular flange or an annular flange with a break. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide flange 212 may not be provided. For example, a limiting protrusion may be provided on the pushing part 32 to prevent the pushing part 32 from slipping out of the first through hole 21.

[0094] Please see Figures 3 to 6 Optionally, in one embodiment, the support bracket 20 further includes a second through hole 22, with the limiting part 31 correspondingly installed in the second through hole 22, and the portion of the limiting part 31 passing through the second through hole 22 engaging with the limiting slot 122. Thus, the second through hole 22 guides and positions the limiting part 31, improving the smoothness and stability of the movement of the pushing part 32, thereby enhancing operational convenience. Alternatively, the second through hole 22 can be omitted, and the limiting part 31 can be directly exposed on the outside of the support bracket 20.

[0095] Optionally, in one embodiment, the support bracket 20 is provided with a receiving groove 23, and a first through hole 21 and a second through hole 22 are provided on the side wall of the receiving groove 23. The limiting member 30 also includes a connecting part 33 provided in the receiving groove 23. The limiting part 31 is connected to the pushing part 32 through the connecting part 33. The connecting part 33 can elastically deform relative to the support bracket 20 so that the limiting part 31 tends to approach the limiting position 122. Specifically, when the pushing part 32 is driven by an external force (such as the pressure from the user's finger) to slide into the first through hole 21 in a direction closer to the center of the receiving groove 23, the connecting part 33 undergoes elastic deformation in the receiving groove 23 and its elastic potential energy gradually increases. At the same time, the limiting part 31 gradually disengages from the limiting position 122 to allow the support bracket 20 to move along the first direction carrying the limiting member 30. After the relative position of the support bracket 20 on the main bracket 10 is adjusted to the correct position, the external force is removed. Under the elastic reset action of the connecting part 33, the pushing part 32 can slide into the first through hole 21 in a direction away from the center of the receiving groove 23. At the same time, the limiting part 31 can be re-locked onto the new limiting position 122 to achieve relative fixation of the support bracket 20.

[0096] Optionally, the two sidewalls of the receiving groove 23 are the second sidewalls 201 of the support bracket 20 mentioned above. In the embodiment where the second sidewall 201 is provided with a guide protrusion 24, the guide protrusion 24 is provided on the two sidewalls of the receiving groove 23.

[0097] It should be noted that, Figures 1 to 5 , Figures 8 to 13 The limiting member 30 shown in the illustrations is in its natural state, meaning that the connecting portion 33 has not undergone elastic deformation. It can be understood that when the limiting member 30 is in its natural state, the distance between the two free ends of the limiting member 30 (i.e., the second end of the elastic piece 331) is greater than the width of the receiving groove 23 of the support bracket 20, so that the limiting member 30 can be in an energy-storing state after being inserted into the receiving groove 23. Therefore, this is not the final assembly state of the limiting member 30; the final assembly state of the limiting member 30 should be that the connecting portion 33 is received within the receiving groove 23, with only the limiting portion 31 and the pushing portion 32 exposed on both sides of the support bracket 20, rather than the state shown in the illustrations where part of the connecting portion 33 extends to the outside of the support bracket 20.

[0098] Of course, in other embodiments, the connecting part 33 may not have elastic deformation capability. For example, the limiting member 30 is a rigid structure as a whole, and the relative positions between the limiting part 31, the connecting part 33 and the pushing part 32 remain unchanged. The mounting bracket also includes an elastic reset member, which is connected between the limiting member 30 and the groove wall of the receiving groove 23 so that the limiting part 31 tends to approach the limiting position 122.

[0099] Please see Figures 4 to 6 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 Optionally, in one embodiment, each of the two opposite sidewalls of the mounting groove 121 is provided with a limiting slot 122. At least two limiting portions 31 and at least two pushing portions 32 are provided. The at least two limiting portions 31 are installed one-to-one with the limiting slots 122 on the two sidewalls of the mounting groove 121, and are also one-to-one with the at least two pushing portions 32. Optionally, in this embodiment, two limiting portions 31 and two pushing portions 32 are provided. This establishes a connection between the two limiting portions 31 and the two opposite sidewalls of the mounting groove 121, improving the installation stability of the support bracket 20 on the main bracket 10. Furthermore, the two pushing portions 32 are responsible for actuating the two limiting portions 31 respectively, saving on transmission structures and simplifying the structure of the mounting bracket. Of course, in other embodiments, only one limiting portion 31 and one pushing portion 32 may be provided.

[0100] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 11Optionally, in one embodiment, the connecting portion 33 includes two intersecting and opposing elastic sheet portions 331. Each elastic sheet portion 331 has a limiting portion 31 and a pushing portion 32. The two elastic sheet portions 331 are capable of relative elastic deformation, causing the opposing limiting portions 31 to tend to move away from each other. Specifically, the elastic sheet portions 331 have opposing first and second ends. The first ends of the two elastic sheet portions 331 are connected, and the second ends of the two elastic sheet portions 331 are far apart, resulting in a roughly V-shaped structure for the connecting portion 33. The pushing portion 32 is located in the middle of the elastic sheet portion 331, and the limiting portion 31 is located at the second end of the elastic sheet portion 331. Further, the elastic sheet portion 331 is made of an elastic metal material such as spring steel; of course, it can also be made of plastic. Even further, the elastic sheet portion 331, the limiting portion 31, and the pushing portion 32 are integrally formed, for example, by stamping.

[0101] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figures 8 to 11 Optionally, the limiting part 31 is disposed at the free end (i.e., the second end) of the elastic piece 331, and the pushing part 32 is disposed in the middle of the elastic piece 331 and exposed below the mounting groove 121. This provides more operating space below the mounting groove 121, making it easier to apply operating force to the pushing part 32. Furthermore, the pushing part 32's location in the middle of the elastic piece 331 facilitates smoother operation and improves ease of use. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the sidewall of the mounting groove 121 may have a clearance hole corresponding to the first through hole 21, and the end of the pushing part 32 may extend through both the first through hole 21 and the clearance hole.

[0102] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 10 , Figure 13 , Figure 14Optionally, in one embodiment, the limiting slot 122 is configured as a positioning hole, including a first positioning hole 124 and a second positioning hole 125. The first positioning hole 124 is set corresponding to a first position and extends along the depth direction of the mounting groove 121. The second positioning hole 125 is set corresponding to the guide groove 101. When the support bracket 20 is in the first position, the limiting part 31 can move within the first positioning hole 124. Specifically, the first positioning hole 124 is configured as an oval hole with its length direction being the depth direction of the mounting groove 121. The second positioning hole 125 is configured as a circular hole, and the outer peripheral surface of the limiting part 31 is configured as a cylindrical surface adapted to the second positioning hole 125. Thus, when the support bracket 20 switches between a retracted state and an unfolded state, the limiting part 31 can slide within the first positioning hole 124. Since the limiting part 31 can extend out of the first positioning hole 124, the limiting member 30 can be kept in a state with low elastic potential energy, which can avoid the problem of the limiting member 30 weakening its elasticity after long-term significant compression. Of course, in other embodiments, the limiting slot 122 may not be a through hole, but may be a positioning groove formed on the inner side of the mounting groove 121.

[0103] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 11 Optionally, the protrusion height of the limiting part 31 is greater than the protrusion height of the pushing part 32. That is, the height of the limiting part 31 extending out of the second through hole 22 is greater than the height of the pushing part 32 extending out of the first through hole 21. This ensures that the limiting part 31 can be reliably locked in the positioning hole and avoids the problem of the limiting part 31 accidentally dislodging from the positioning hole, thereby improving the installation reliability of the support bracket 20. Of course, in other embodiments, the protrusion height of the limiting part 31 may be less than or equal to the protrusion height of the pushing part 32.

[0104] Alternatively, the cross-sectional diameter of the pushing part 32 may be larger than that of the limiting part 31. This allows the more robust pushing part 32 to provide a larger surface area for resisting force, improving the comfort and convenience of user operation. Of course, in other embodiments, the cross-sectional diameter of the pushing part 32 may be less than or equal to that of the limiting part 31.

[0105] Please see Figure 6 Optionally, in one embodiment, the support bracket 20 is provided with a receiving groove 23, and the limiting member 30 is provided in the receiving groove 23. The sidewall of the receiving groove 23 is integrally formed with a guide protrusion 24. This simplifies the structure of the mounting bracket and reduces its manufacturing cost. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide protrusion 24 may also be provided separately.

[0106] Alternatively, the upper end of the receiving groove 23 has an opening, and the side edge of the opening is bent towards the center of the receiving groove 23 with a reinforcing flange 25. The opposite sides of the reinforcing flange 25 are connected to the sidewall of the receiving groove 23. In this way, the local structural strength of the upper end of the receiving groove 23 can be enhanced by the reinforcing flange 25, especially the structural strength of the area where the guide protrusion 24 is located, thereby improving the smoothness and stability of the movement of the guide protrusion 24 within the guide groove 101.

[0107] Specifically, the stop protrusion 134 can abut against the side of the reinforcing flange 25 near the window end. In this way, by the cooperation between the reinforcing flange 25 and the stop protrusion 134, the limit position of the displacement of the support bracket 20 in the front-to-back direction can be defined.

[0108] Please see Figure 15 and Figure 16 Optionally, in one embodiment, the mounting bracket further includes a first bracket 60 separately disposed from the load-bearing bracket 12. The first bracket 60 is disposed on the lower side of the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner. The lower surface of the first bracket 60 is provided with a first through groove 61 extending in a first direction. When the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner is placed on the load-bearing bracket 12 from top to bottom, the first bracket 60 is sleeved on the upper side of the load-bearing bracket 12 through the first through groove 61, and the load-bearing bracket 12 can move on the first through groove 61. The load-bearing bracket 12 is provided with a first stop portion 70 that can be elastically deformed, and the first through groove 61 is provided with a second stop portion 62. When the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner moves on the load-bearing bracket 12 in the first direction, the first stop portion 70 can be locked in the second stop portion 62.

[0109] It should be noted that, Figures 1 to 14 The first support 60 is not shown.

[0110] Optionally, the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner is first placed from top to bottom on one end of the load-bearing bracket 12 near the window 51, and then pushed forward to a fixed position. That is, after being pushed to a fixed position in the direction away from the window 51, the first stop part 70 is locked onto the second stop part 62.

[0111] Of course, in other embodiments, the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner can be placed from top to bottom at the end of the load-bearing bracket 12 away from the window 51, and then pulled back to a fixed position. That is, after being pulled to a fixed position in the direction close to the window 51, the first stop part 70 is locked on the second stop part 62.

[0112] In other words, the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner is first placed on the load-bearing bracket 12, and then pushed or pulled along the first direction so that the first stop part 70 can be engaged with the second stop part 62, thus fixing the outdoor unit 52 relatively on the load-bearing bracket 12, thereby completing the installation and fixing of the outdoor unit 52. In this way, the structure of the first stop part 70 and the second stop part 62 allows the installation and fixing of the outdoor unit 52 to be completed without the need for screws and corresponding screwdrivers, making the operation more convenient and improving the user experience.

[0113] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 12 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 Optionally, in one embodiment, the load-bearing bracket 12 further includes a third through hole 127 communicating with the mounting groove 121. A first stop portion 70 is disposed in the mounting groove 121, and a first locking protrusion 71 is provided corresponding to the third through hole 127. The portion of the first locking protrusion 71 extending out of the third through hole 127 can be engaged with the second stop portion 62. Thus, the first stop portion 70 can undergo elastic deformation within the mounting groove 121, and the third through hole 127 can limit and guide the first locking protrusion 71, thereby allowing the first locking protrusion 71 to be engaged or disengaged from the second stop portion 62 more smoothly. Of course, in other embodiments, the first stop portion 70 can also be directly formed on the side wall of the load-bearing bracket 12.

[0114] It should be noted that, Figure 9 The limiting member 50 shown is in its natural state (i.e., in an inelastic deformation state), so part of its first latching protrusion 51 is shown protruding out of the load-bearing bracket 12 and exposed. It can be understood that in actual application, the first latching protrusion 51 is completely contained within the first mounting groove 121 of the load-bearing bracket 12.

[0115] Optionally, the second stop portion 62 is disposed on the first groove sidewall of the first through groove 61. A guide plate 63 is also provided on the first groove sidewall of the first through groove 61. The second stop portion 62 and the guide plate 63 are sequentially distributed along the first direction and away from the window mounting bracket 11, with the guide plate 63 extending obliquely away from the load-bearing bracket 12. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner is placed on the load-bearing bracket 12 and pushed backward to fix it, during this pushing process, the first locking protrusion 71 contacts and is acted upon by the guide plate 63, causing the first stop portion 70 to undergo elastic deformation and automatically retract. Finally, after the first locking protrusion 71 aligns with the second stop portion 62, it automatically pops out and locks into the second stop portion 62. Thus, through the guiding action of the guide plate 63, the first locking protrusion 71 can be more smoothly locked into the second stop portion 62. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide plate 63 may not be provided. It is understood that in the embodiment where the outdoor unit 52 of the air conditioner is placed on the load-bearing bracket 12 and pulled inward to fix it, the guide plate 63 extends at an angle away from the load-bearing bracket 12 in the direction close to the window mounting bracket 11.

[0116] Please see Figure 15 and Figure 16 Optionally, in one embodiment, the first stop portion 70 includes two first pieces 72 and two second pieces 73. The two first pieces 72 are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, and connected by the two second pieces 73. The two second pieces 73 are arranged opposite to each other and intersecting. One of the first pieces 72 has a first latching protrusion 71 and elastically abuts against one sidewall of the mounting groove 121, while the other first piece 72 elastically abuts against the other sidewall of the mounting groove 121. Thus, the first stop portion 70 has a simple structure and is easy to implement, and can stably and elastically deform within the mounting groove 121 to provide a good actuating effect on the first latching protrusion 71. Of course, in other embodiments, the first stop portion 70 can also be directly formed from the sidewall of the mounting groove 121.

[0117] Please refer to the above as well. Figure 12Optionally, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 121 is provided with a fourth through hole 128. The first through groove 61 includes two opposing first plate segments 611, two second plate segments 612, two opposing third plate segments 613, and a fourth plate segment 614 connecting the two third plate segments 613. The side wall of the first through groove 61 is the first plate segment 611. The third plate segment 613 is opposite to the first plate segment 611. The second plate segment 612 connects the first plate segment 611 and the third plate segment 613. The bottom wall of the first through groove 61 is the second plate segment 612. The third plate segment 613 has a limiting notch 615 at the end away from the window mounting bracket 11. When the first bracket 60 moves forward in the first direction, the lower edge of the limiting notch 615 can move to the lower side of the hole edge of the fourth through hole 128, thereby realizing the limiting connection between the first bracket 60 and the fourth through hole 128. In this way, the swaying of the first bracket 60 in the vertical direction can be effectively restricted.

[0118] The stop protrusion 134 of the reinforcing bracket 13 is provided on the side of the fourth through hole 128 away from the window end. In this way, the stop protrusion 134 restricts the displacement of the support bracket 20 at this point to avoid the support bracket 20 moving too far back and colliding and interfering with the first bracket 60.

[0119] It is understood that the second stop portion 62 can have various structural forms; for example, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 16 The second stop portion 62 is configured as a notch or groove that matches the first latching protrusion 71. Specifically, the outline of the notch or groove matches the first latching protrusion 71. For example, in an embodiment where the first latching protrusion 71 is configured as a cylinder, the notch or groove is configured as a cylindrical surface segment. Of course, in other embodiments, the second stop portion 62 may also be configured as a limiting hole that matches the first latching protrusion 71.

[0120] Please see Figure 15 and Figure 16 To facilitate operation and avoid the risk of slipping when pushing or pulling the first bracket 60, the first bracket 60 is provided with an anti-slip part 64 on the side away from the second stop part 62. Specifically, the anti-slip part 64 includes an anti-slip grid hole provided on the side wall of the first through groove 61 and an undercut flange protruding from the outer side of the first through groove 61.

[0121] Please see Figure 1 Optionally, in one embodiment, the mounting bracket further includes a base 80 rotatably mounted on the support bracket 20. The plate surface of the base 80 intersects with the first direction, and the base 80 is used to abut against the exterior wall surface. Specifically, the base 80 is rotatably mounted on the support bracket 20 by a hexagonal head bolt or pin. In this way, the base 80 can adapt to exterior wall surfaces with inclination angles. That is, when the exterior wall surface is not vertical, the base 80 can freely rotate to a posture that fits the exterior wall surface better, thereby increasing the contact surface area between the base 80 and the exterior wall surface.

[0122] This utility model also proposes an air conditioner, which includes an outdoor unit and the aforementioned mounting bracket. The specific structure of the mounting bracket is as described in the above embodiments. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here. The mounting bracket is used to install the outdoor unit of the air conditioner on the outside of a window.

[0123] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
