[0070] A house has a window structure, and a user can install an air conditioner outdoor unit in the house using a mounting bracket. Currently, the mounting bracket includes a load-bearing frame with a mounting position for the air conditioner outdoor unit, a connecting portion connected to the load-bearing frame, and an adjustment portion arranged in parallel with the load-bearing frame. The adjustment portion is connected to the load-bearing frame via the connecting portion. The adjustment portion, the connecting portion, and the load-bearing frame bracket define a mounting channel for the window structure to enter. The connecting portion has multiple adjustment positions in the direction from the adjustment portion to the load-bearing frame, which can be screwed to the adjusting portion to adjust the width of the mounting channel, thereby allowing the mounting bracket to be mounted on window structures of various sizes.

[0071] However, when using the mounting bracket, the user needs to select the adjustment position for the adjustment part to be locked according to the width of the part for the hanging channel to be hung in the user's window structure. The adjustment part and the connecting part may be separated from each other due to unstable locking by the user, causing the air conditioner outdoor unit to fall, and then causing a safety accident.

[0072] To this end, the present application proposes a mounting bracket, which aims to reduce the possibility of the air conditioner outdoor unit falling due to user installation and reduce the occurrence of installation accidents.

[0073] 1 to 5 , and also with reference to FIG. 7 and 9 , in one embodiment of the present application, the mounting bracket 300 is used to mount the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 on a house 100 having a window structure 110. It should be noted that the house 100 may be a fixed building 100, or a vehicle 100, such as, but not limited to, a recreational vehicle 100.

[0074] The mounting bracket 300 includes a mounting structure 410 and a load-bearing frame 500. The mounting structure 410 has a mounting channel 420 for accessing the window structure 110. It should be noted that the window structure 110 may be a window structure 110 installed on the pitched roof of the attic of the house 100. The window structure 110 includes a window frame and a window door mounted therein, the window door being used to open and close the window frame. The mounting structure 410 may be mounted to the window edge of the window frame, and the mounting channel 420 may be accessible from the window edge. The window structure 110 may also be a French window structure, and the mounting structure 410 may be mounted to the railing 111 of the French window structure, and the mounting channel 420 may be accessible from the railing 111. The window structure 110 may also take other window structures for attachment to the mounting structure 410, without limitation. The width of the mounting channel 420 tends to increase in the direction in which the mounting structure 410 is mounted. In this way, the attachment channel 420 can accommodate a wide variety of widths of window sills, railings 111, and other portions of the window structure 110 to which the attachment structure 410 is attached. The portion of the window structure 110 to which the attachment structure 410 is attached is defined herein as the attached portion. This eliminates the need for users to adjust the width of the attachment channel 420 to the attached portion, allowing the attachment structure 410 to be readily accessible and conveniently installed. Furthermore, the mounting bracket 300 reduces the possibility of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 falling during installation, thus reducing installation accidents.

[0075] The load-bearing frame 500 is connected to the hanging structure 410 and is provided with an air-conditioning outdoor unit mounting position 522 for mounting the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200. Thus, the user can complete the installation of the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 by mounting the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 on the air-conditioning outdoor unit mounting position 522 and hanging the hanging structure 410 on the window structure 110.

[0076] The hooking structure 410 allows users to conveniently attach the mounting bracket 300 to the house 100. This allows users to install the air conditioner themselves, eliminating the need to wait for an installer to come to their home. Furthermore, since users can install the air conditioner themselves, they can avoid paying installer fees. Furthermore, since the mounting bracket 300 is attached to the house 100 via a hooking mechanism, drilling holes in the window sill or railing 111 of the window structure 110 is unnecessary, preventing damage to the window structure 110.

[0077] The mounting structure 410 can be constructed in a variety of ways. In one embodiment, the mounting channel 420 has a first side 430 and a second side 440 opposite each other in the width direction of the mounting channel 420. The first side 430 includes a first sidewall 431 connected to the load-bearing frame 500, and the second side 440 includes a second sidewall 441 arranged at an angle to the first sidewall 431. Thus, the first sidewall 431 and the second sidewall 441 are planar, facilitating the manufacture of the mounting structure 410. It will be appreciated that the distance between the first sidewall 431 and the second sidewall 441 in the width direction of the mounting channel 420 gradually increases in the mounting direction. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first sidewall 431 and / or the second sidewall 441 are curved.

[0078] There are many structural forms of the hanging structure 410. In one embodiment, the hanging channel 420 also has a channel bottom wall 450 connecting the first side 430 and the second side 440, and the normal of the channel bottom wall 450 is arranged parallel to the hanging direction. In this way, the minimum width dimension of the hanging channel 420 is the dimension of the channel bottom wall 450 in the width direction of the hanging channel 420. It can be understood that the value of this dimension is not zero. The hung parts, such as window sills and railings 111, usually have a minimum width dimension that is not zero. In this way, the space utilization rate of the hanging channel 420 is improved. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first side 430 and the second side 440 are directly connected. For example, the first side 430 and the second side 440 are arranged at an angle, or the connection between the first side 430 and the second side 440 is a smooth transition.

[0079] In one embodiment, the second sidewall 441 is connected to the channel bottom wall 450. The first side 430 further includes a third sidewall 433, and the first sidewall 431 is connected to the channel bottom wall 450 via the third sidewall 433. In the hooking direction, the third sidewall 433 and the first sidewall 431 are arranged sequentially. In the hooking direction, the increasing distance between the third sidewall 433 and the second sidewall 441 tends to be greater than the increasing distance between the first sidewall 431 and the second sidewall 441. Thus, the first sidewall 431 transitions to the groove bottom wall via the third sidewall 433, resulting in a smoother transition between the first side 430 and the channel bottom wall 450, thereby preventing hand injuries when a user grasps the hook structure 410. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first sidewall 431 is directly connected to the channel bottom wall 450.

[0080] In one embodiment, the second side 440 further includes a fourth side wall 442 parallel to the first side wall 431. In the attachment direction, the fourth side wall 442 and the second side wall 441 are arranged sequentially, and the fourth side wall 442 is connected to the channel bottom wall 450 via the second side wall 441. If the attached portion has two parallel side surfaces along its width, and the distance between the two side supports is the same as the distance between the fourth side wall 442 and the first side wall 431, the first side wall 431 and the fourth side wall 442 will respectively abut the two side surfaces, thereby ensuring a more stable connection between the attachment structure 410 and the attached portion. In addition, if the width of the hung portion is small, when the hanging structure 410 is hung on the hung portion, if it is affected by external airflow and causes the second side 440 and the hung portion to slide relative to each other, the hanging structure 410 and the hung portion have a tendency to separate. It can be understood that the angle between the second side wall 441 and the fourth side wall 442 is an obtuse angle. When the hung portion slides to the fourth side wall 442, the fourth side wall 442 is conducive to suppressing the tendency of the hung portion to separate from the hanging structure 410, which allows the mounting bracket 300 to be more firmly connected to the hung portion.

[0081] In one embodiment, the mounting bracket 300 further includes a rope 910. The rope 910 is arranged to pass through the first side 430 and the second side 440 in the width direction of the attachment channel 420, thereby defining a restricted space 800 with the first side 430, the second side 440, and the channel bottom wall 450. The window structure 110 includes a railing 111, and the restricted space 800 is provided for the railing 111 to pass through. In this manner, even in inclement weather, such as a storm, the attachment structure 410 is unlikely to separate from the railing 111 due to the restriction of the restricted space 800, thereby improving the safety of the mounting bracket 300. However, the present design is not limited to this embodiment. In other embodiments, the rope 910 passes through the support frame 500 and the second side 440, thereby defining the restricted space 800 together with the support frame 500 and the attachment portion. In the attachment direction, the rope 910 is located below the restricted space 800.

[0082] In one embodiment, the rope 910 has a first end for connecting to the house 100 and a second end for connecting to the first side 430. This prevents the mounting bracket 300 from falling from the house 100 due to the tension of the rope 910, thereby improving the safety of the mounting bracket 300. Furthermore, the second side 440 is provided with a retaining notch 443 for the rope 910 to pass through. This allows the rope 910 to pass through the retaining notch 443, which is very convenient. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the rope 910 has a first end for connecting to the house 100 and a second end for connecting to the first side 430, and the second side 440 is provided with a retaining hole for the rope 910 to pass through. It is worth noting that the first end of the rope 910 can be connected to, but is not limited to, the anti-theft net of the window structure 110 or the indoor air conditioner unit in the room.

[0083] 6 , in one embodiment, the limiting notch 443 includes an inlet and outlet section 444 for the rope 910 to enter in a direction opposite to the hooking direction, a limiting section 446 for the rope 910 to enter in the hooking direction, and a connecting section 445 connecting the inlet and outlet section 444 and the limiting section 446. It is understood that if the hooking structure 410 is to be detached from the hooked portion, the hooking structure 410 needs to move in a direction opposite to the hooking direction. Since the limiting section 446 allows the rope 910 to enter in the hooking direction, the more the hooking structure 410 moves in a direction opposite to the hooking direction, the further the rope 910 enters the limiting section 446 in the hooking direction, relative to the rope 910 that has already entered the limiting section 446. In other words, the rope 910 will not be detached from the limiting section 446, which helps to improve the connection stability between the hooking structure 410 and the hooked portion. Furthermore, even if the rope 910 escapes the retaining section 446, to fully escape the retaining notch 443, the rope 910 must move from the connecting section 445 into the entry / exit section 444. This means that the rope 910 must move along the length of the attachment channel 420 to the connecting section 445, and finally, along the attachment direction to the entry / exit section 444, before it can escape the retaining notch 443. This makes it more difficult for the rope 910 to escape the retaining notch 443, which helps improve the stability of the connection between the mounting bracket 300 and the attached portion. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the retaining notch 443 may have other shapes, as long as they can prevent the rope 910 from escaping the housing of the retaining notch 443.

[0084] In one embodiment, the first end of the rope 910 is connected to the house 100 via a wire lock 930. For example, the first end is connected to an air conditioner indoor unit in the house 100 or to the anti-theft net of the house 100 via the wire lock 930. In this way, the rope 910 can be more securely connected to the house 100.

[0085] In one embodiment, the second end of the cord 910 is connected to the first side 430 via a buckle 920 . The buckle 920 facilitates the user to connect the cord 910 to the first side 430 .

[0086] Referring to Figures 11 to 13 , in one embodiment, the load-bearing frame 500 includes a main frame 510 connected to the mounting structure 410 and an adjustment frame 520 connected to the main frame 510. The main frame 510 extends along the mounting direction, and the adjustment frame 520 is provided with a mounting position 522 for an outdoor air conditioner. In the mounting direction, either the adjustment frame 520 or the main frame 510 is provided with multiple adjustment positions 521 for selectively installing the other, thereby adjusting the distance between the outdoor air conditioner mounting position 522 and the mounting structure 410. Without loss of generality, the adjustment frame 520 having the adjustment positions 521 is used as an example for description. Thus, if the window structure 110 is located in an environment with high airflow intensity, the user can select an adjustment position 521 farther from the mounting structure 410 for installation of the main frame 510, thereby reducing the distance between the outdoor air conditioner mounting position 522 and the mounting structure 410. For ease of explanation, a first unit is defined as comprising the mounting bracket 300 and the outdoor air conditioner 200. This shortens the distance between the center of gravity of the first unit and the mounting structure 410, reducing the impact of airflow on the first unit and improving the stability of the connection between the mounting structure 410 and the window structure 110. For example, if the main frame 510 has an adjustment position 521, the user can select an adjustment position 521 closer to the mounting structure 410 for the adjustment frame 520 installation, thereby reducing the distance between the air conditioner outdoor unit mounting position 522 and the mounting structure 410. It should be noted that the term "multiple" herein refers to at least two. Furthermore, the user can select a desired adjustment position 521 to further the distance between the air conditioner outdoor unit mounting position 522 and the mounting structure 410, thereby moving the air conditioner outdoor unit mounting position 522 away from the window frame, thereby facilitating the positioning of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 away from the window frame. This helps prevent interference between the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 and the window door, reducing the window door opening, and thereby improving the air conditioner's cooling or heating effect on the room 100.

[0087] In one embodiment, the main frame 510 and the hanging structure 410 are integrally formed. Thus, the overall structural strength of the main frame 510 and the hanging structure 410 is high. Furthermore, the user can hang the mounting bracket 300 on the window structure 110 without additional tools.

[0088] In one embodiment, adjacent adjustment positions 521 are spaced apart. Thus, the plurality of adjustment positions 521 are arranged discontinuously, thereby enabling the load-bearing frame 500 to achieve adjustable positions, which helps reduce the manufacturing cost of the mounting bracket 300. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, adjacent adjustment positions 521 are connected. Thus, the plurality of adjustment positions 521 are arranged continuously as a whole, thereby enabling the load-bearing frame 500 to achieve infinite adjustment.

[0089] In one embodiment, the adjustment frame 520 is provided with a first guide slot 524 that slidably engages with the main frame 510. The first guide slot 524 extends along the attachment direction. Thus, a user can slide the adjustment frame 520 relative to the main frame 510 via the first guide slot 524. Without loss of generality, the adjustment frame 520 having adjustment positions 521 is used as an example for explanation. It can be understood that the main frame 510 is correspondingly provided with a first mounting position 518 for mounting at one of the adjustment positions 521. During the relative sliding of the main frame 510 and the adjustment frame 520, the first mounting position 518 can pass through all of the adjustment positions 521. The user can position the first mounting position 518 at a desired adjustment position 521, facilitating installation of the main frame 510 at that adjustment position 521. This helps reduce the time required to align the first mounting position 518 with the adjustment position 521 to be mounted. However, the present design is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the main frame body 510 may be provided with a first guide groove 524 that is slidably engaged with the adjustment frame 520 , and the first guide groove 524 extends along the hanging direction.

[0090] In one embodiment, the adjustment frame 520 includes a first groove bottom plate 525 and two first groove side plates 526 disposed on the first groove bottom plate 525. The first groove bottom plate 525 and the two first groove side plates 526 enclose a first guide groove 524. This reduces the material required to form the adjustment frame 520. In one embodiment, each first groove side plate 526 is provided with a first flange 527 extending toward the other first groove side plate 526. The main frame 510 is disposed between the first groove bottom plate 525 and the first flange 527. Thus, the first groove bottom plate 525 and the first flange 527 provide a position limit for the main frame 510 in the depth direction of the first guide groove 524, allowing the main frame 510 to slide more stably within the first guide groove 524. Furthermore, the provision of the first flange 527 prevents the first groove side plates 526 from injuring hands during assembly and disassembly of the mounting bracket 300.

[0091] 8 , in one embodiment, the mounting bracket 300 further includes a bolt provided at an adjustment position 521 for passing through the main frame 510 and the adjustment frame 520. This allows the main frame 510 and the adjustment frame 520 to be relatively fixed, thereby improving the structural stability of the mounting bracket 300. Furthermore, bolts are readily available components on the market, and when damaged, they are easily accessible. It is understood that the main frame 510 is correspondingly provided with a first mounting position 518 for selecting one of the adjustment positions 521 for installation. The adjustment position 521 is provided with an adjustment hole, and the first mounting position 518 is provided with a mounting hole. Bolts are passed through the adjustment hole and the mounting hole to connect the main frame 510 and the adjustment frame 520. It is worth mentioning that the bolts may be, but are not limited to, hand-tightened bolts.

[0092] In one embodiment, the mounting bracket 300 further includes an adapter bracket 600 for connecting to the outdoor air conditioner 200. The main frame 510 is provided with a second guide slot 511 extending in the mounting direction, into which the adapter bracket 600 slides. The adapter bracket 600 provides users with flexibility. If the house 100 has a shelf for the outdoor air conditioner 200, the user can choose not to connect the adapter bracket 600 to the outdoor air conditioner 200 and directly move the outdoor air conditioner 200 to the shelf, thereby reducing the weight of the outdoor air conditioner 200. If the house 100 does not have a shelf for the outdoor air conditioner 200, the user can connect the outdoor air conditioner 200 to the main frame 510 via the adapter bracket 600. The adapter bracket 600 slides into the second guide slot 511, further facilitating installation of the outdoor air conditioner 200. The outdoor air conditioner mounting position 522 is configured as a stop 523. The adapter frame 600 can slide between the mounting structure 410 and the stop 523. The stop 523 is used to allow the outdoor air conditioner 200 to be stopped by the adapter frame 600. In this way, the user can push the outdoor air conditioner 200 to slide the adapter frame 600 toward the stop 523. When the adapter frame 600 stops at the stop 523, the outdoor air conditioner 200 is installed. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the adjustment frame 520 is provided with a shelf, and the shelf is provided with the outdoor air conditioner mounting position 522.

[0093] In one embodiment, the main frame 510 includes a second groove bottom plate 512 and two second groove side plates 513 arranged on the second groove bottom plate 512. The second groove bottom plate 512 and the two second groove side plates 513 surround the second guide groove 511. In this way, less material is required for forming the main frame 510.

[0094] In one embodiment, any second slot side plate 513 is provided with a second flange 514 extending toward the other second slot side plate 513. The adapter frame 600 is disposed between the first slot bottom plate 525 and the first flange 527. Thus, the second slot bottom plate 512 and the second flange 514 provide a position limit for the adapter frame 600 in the depth direction of the second guide slot 511, allowing the adapter frame 600 to slide relatively stably within the second guide slot 511. Furthermore, the provision of the second flange 514 prevents injuries to the second slot side plates 513 during assembly and disassembly of the bracket 300.

[0095] In one embodiment, in the attachment direction, the second guide groove 511 includes a first guide segment 515 and a second guide segment 516, arranged sequentially. The first guide segment 515 connects to the second guide segment 516, and the second flange 514 is disposed on the second guide segment 516. It is understood that users typically place the adapter frame 600 against the connection between the attachment structure 410 and the main frame body 510 for leverage to adjust the position of the adapter frame 600, thereby facilitating smooth sliding of the adapter frame 600 into the second guide groove 511. Because the second flange 514 is disposed on the second guide segment 516 rather than the first guide segment 515, the adapter frame 600 is not interfered with by the second flange 514 during position adjustment, allowing the adapter frame 600 to quickly enter the first guide segment 515. As the second guide segment 516 slides, the adapter frame 600 gradually slides along the attachment direction, allowing the adapter frame 600 to smoothly slide into the second guide segment 516.

[0096] 10 , in the first embodiment, the adapter frame 600 includes a sliding portion that slides with the second guide groove 511 . The sliding portion is groove-shaped and includes a third groove bottom plate 610 and two third groove side plates 620 provided on the third groove bottom plate 610 . In this way, less material is required for forming the sliding portion.

[0097] In the first embodiment, any third slot side plate 620 is provided with a third flange 630 extending toward the other third slot side plate 620. The third flange 630 abuts the second slot bottom plate 512, and the third slot bottom plate 610 abuts the second flange 514. This allows the sliding portion to slide relatively stably within the second guide slot 511. Furthermore, the provision of the third flange 630 prevents the sliding portion from injuring the hands during assembly and disassembly of the mounting bracket 300.

[0098] In one embodiment, each third slot side plate 620 is bent toward the other third slot side plate 620, and the distance between the two third slot side plates 620 decreases in the direction from the third slot bottom plate 610 to the third reversing plate. In this way, the bent portion of the third slot side plate 620 can cooperate with the second slot side plate 513 to facilitate the insertion of the adapter frame 600 into the second guide slot 511.

[0099] In one embodiment, a second guide groove 511 is provided on a side of the main frame 510 facing away from the attachment channel 420. A transition guide groove 470 communicating with the second guide groove 511 is provided on the side of the attachment structure 410 facing away from the attachment channel 420, allowing the adapter frame 600 to slide from the transition guide groove 470 into the second guide groove 511. This allows the adapter frame 600 to be relatively close to the interior space of the house 100. Without loss of generality, a user can carry the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 and the adapter frame 600 together. When aligning the adapter frame 600 with the transition guide groove 470, the user can reduce the amount of forward leaning required, potentially even eliminating the need for the user to overextend their arms, thereby allowing the user to install the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 without excessive fatigue. When the adapter bracket 600 is matched with the transition guide groove 470, the window can provide supporting force for the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, which helps to reduce the burden on the user. Then, the user can push the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 to make the adapter bracket 600 slide from the transition guide groove 470 into the second guide groove 511.

[0100] In one embodiment, the mounting bracket 300 further includes a support base 710 for contacting the house 100. The support base 710 is provided on one side of the adjustment frame 520 in the width direction of the attachment channel 420, and the other side faces the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. The main frame 510 is provided with a first air hole 517, the adjustment frame 520 is provided with a second air hole 528, and the adapter frame 600 is provided with a third air hole 640. Along the width direction of the attachment channel 420, the first air hole 517, the second air hole 528, and the third air hole 640 collectively expose the air intake area of ​​the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. Thus, the support base 710 supports the load-bearing frame 500, forming an air duct between the load-bearing frame 500 and the house 100. The air duct communicates with the first air hole 517, the second air hole 528, and the third air hole 640, thereby ensuring a large air intake for the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. Since the first air hole 517, the second air hole 528, and the third air hole 640 are used to jointly reveal the air inlet area of ​​the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, the path from the air passage to the air inlet area is less blocked, which is beneficial to improving the smoothness of air intake in the air inlet area.

[0101] In one embodiment, the support base 710 and the adjustment frame 520 are integrally formed. This provides a more stable connection between the support base 710 and the adjustment frame 520. However, the present design is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the support base 710 and the adjustment frame 520 are pivotally connected, with the rotation axis of the support base 710 parallel to the attachment channel 420. This allows the angle between the support frame 500 and the house 100 to be adjusted by rotating the support base 710, thereby increasing the airflow path between the mounting frame and the house 100. Without loss of generality, taking the attic of house 100 as an example, the sloping roof of the attic of house 100 is provided with a window structure 110, the connecting surface is connected to the lower window edge of the window frame of the window structure 110, and the support seat 710 is provided on the outside of the sloping roof of the attic. For the same lower window edge and the outside of the sloping roof at different angles to the lower window edge, the mounting bracket 300 can be rotated relative to the adjustment frame 520 through the support seat 710 to make the wind passage between the load-bearing frame 500 and the outside of the sloping roof larger, so that the air intake area has a larger air intake volume.

[0102] In one embodiment, the mounting bracket 300 further includes a buffer pad 720, and the support base 710 abuts against the house 100 via the buffer pad 720. In this way, damage to the house 100 caused by the mounting bracket 300 can be reduced.

[0103] In one embodiment, the cushioning pad 720 is configured as a rubber pad. This cushioning pad 720 not only reduces damage to the housing 100 caused by the mounting bracket 300 but also increases friction between the mounting bracket 300 and the housing 100, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the mounting bracket 300 and the housing 100. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the cushioning pad 720 may also be configured as a silicone pad.

[0104] This application provides a mounting bracket. Referring to Figures 14 to 18 , in one embodiment of the present application, the mounting bracket 300 includes a mounting structure 410, a load-bearing frame 500, an adapter frame 600, and a roller module 550. The mounting structure 410 is used to connect to a window, and the load-bearing frame 500 is connected to the mounting structure 410 and extends in a first direction. Thus, the mounting structure 410 provides support for the load-bearing frame 500. The adapter frame 600 is used to connect to the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. The roller module 550 is disposed between the load-bearing frame 500 and the adapter frame 600, allowing the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 to slide along the adapter frame 600 and be mounted on the load-bearing frame 500 in the first direction via the roller module 550. This reduces the friction generated by the roller module 550 during the sliding movement of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 on the load-bearing frame 500 in the first direction, thereby reducing wear on the load-bearing frame 500.

[0105] In one embodiment, a protective paint layer is provided on the outer surface of the load-bearing frame 500 , which can also reduce the wear of the protective paint layer.

[0106] Referring also to FIG. 19 , in one embodiment, the roller module 550 includes a guide frame 560 that slidably engages with the load-bearing frame 500, and a roller 580 disposed on the guide frame 560. The guide frame 560 is capable of sliding along the load-bearing frame 500 in a first direction. Guided by the guide frame 560, the adapter frame 600 is prevented from deflecting during movement in the first direction. In some alternative embodiments, the adapter frame 600 directly slidably engages with the load-bearing frame 500.

[0107] In one embodiment, the guide frame 560 is provided with a receiving cavity 561 having a first opening, and the adapter frame 600 is configured to be placed in the receiving cavity 561 through the first opening. This facilitates the alignment of the receiving cavity 561 and the adapter frame 600, while the guide frame 560 provides guidance for the adapter frame 600. This also reduces the difficulty of inserting the adapter frame 600 into the receiving cavity 561. This facilitates easier insertion of the adapter frame 600 into the receiving cavity 561 when a user moves the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 connected to the adapter frame 600, allowing the adapter frame 600 to follow the guide frame 560, thereby completing the installation of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 and reducing the user's effort. In some alternative embodiments, the adapter frame 600 is bent to form a mounting groove, which is configured to be mounted on the guide frame 560 along the first direction.

[0108] In one embodiment, the first opening of the receiving cavity 561 is oriented in a second direction opposite to the first direction. Thus, when the user installs the mounting bracket 300 on the window, the first direction can be downward, and the first opening can be upward. After the adapter bracket 600 is placed in the receiving cavity 561, the weight of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 can be fully utilized to drive the adapter bracket 600 downward, making the installation of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 on the mounting bracket 300 easier. In some alternative embodiments, the first opening is oriented at an angle to the first direction. Thus, when the user installs the mounting bracket 300 on the window, the first opening can be oriented upward. After the adapter bracket 600 is placed in the receiving cavity 561, the weight of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 can be fully utilized to drive the adapter bracket 600 downward, making the installation of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 on the mounting bracket 300 easier.

[0109] Referring also to FIG. 20 , in one embodiment, the roller 580 is provided with a seat 570 , which is disposed within the receiving cavity 561 . The guide frame 560 is provided with a relief hole 564 communicating with the receiving cavity 561 . The roller 580 is disposed within the relief hole 564 and is used to press against the load-bearing frame 500 . This fully utilizes the space in the receiving cavity 561 , facilitating a compact structure for the mounting bracket 300 and making it easier to transport. In other embodiments, the seat 570 may be omitted, with the guide frame 560 acting as the seat 570 ; alternatively, the seat 570 may be disposed outside the receiving cavity 561 and the relief hole 564 may be eliminated.

[0110] In one embodiment, the side of the base 570 facing away from the roller 580 is connected to the wall of the receiving chamber 561. Thus, when the roller 580 presses against the load-bearing frame 500, the wall of the receiving chamber 561 opposite the side of the base facing away from the roller 580 provides relatively stable support for the base. In other embodiments, one side of the base 570 is connected to the wall of the receiving chamber 561 in the direction of the rotation axis of the roller 580.

[0111] In one embodiment, the receiving chamber 561 includes two parallel first mounting chambers 562 extending along a first direction. The first mounting chambers 562 are equipped with rollers 580. The receiving chamber 561 also includes a chamber body 563 disposed between the two first mounting chambers 562. The chamber body 563 is configured to receive the adapter rack 600. Thus, in the direction separating the two first mounting chambers 562, the rollers 580 provide good support for both sides of the adapter rack 600 placed in the chamber body 563. This ensures that the roller module 550 is subjected to relatively uniform force during movement in the first direction, thereby extending the service life of the roller module 550.

[0112] Without loss of generality, using Figures 17 to 19 as an example, the first mounting cavity 562 has a second cavity opening oriented in the second direction, the cavity body 563 has a third cavity opening oriented in the second direction, and the second cavity opening and the third cavity opening are connected to form a first cavity opening. This makes the process of installing the roller module 550 on the guide frame 560 and placing the adapter frame 600 into the cavity body 563 very convenient. In the direction in which the roller 580 presses against the load-bearing frame 500, the cavity wall of the wall body away from the load-bearing frame 500 is provided with an escape notch 565 extending from the first cavity opening along the first direction. The escape notch 565 is used to allow the adapter frame 600 to partially extend outside the cavity body 563 to facilitate connection to the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. In addition, in the first direction, the length of the guide frame 560 is smaller than the length of the adapter frame 600, and the length of the guide frame 560 is smaller than the length of the load-bearing frame 500. In this way, the adapter frame 600 has a longer size to be connected to the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, so that the adapter frame 600 is firmly connected to the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, and the load-bearing frame 500 is less worn during the relative sliding of the guide frame 560 with the load-bearing frame 500.

[0113] The structures shown in Figures 17 to 19 are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application.

[0114] In some other embodiments, one first installation cavity 562 is provided, one cavity body 563 is provided, and both the first installation cavity 562 and the cavity body 563 extend along the first direction.

[0115] In one embodiment, the first mounting cavity 562 is provided with a plurality of rollers 580 spaced apart along the first direction. This facilitates smoother movement of the roller module 550 along the first direction. Furthermore, if one of the plurality of rollers 580 disposed in the first mounting cavity 562 becomes damaged and unable to roll on the support frame 500, the remaining rollers 580 can still utilize their inherent rolling properties to allow the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 to be slidably mounted on the support frame 500. In some other embodiments, to reduce the cost of manufacturing the mounting bracket 300, one roller 580 is provided in each first mounting cavity 562.

[0116] Referring also to FIG. 21 , in one embodiment, the load-bearing frame 500 includes a main frame 510 connected to the mounting structure 410, and an adjustment frame 520 connected to the main frame 510. The adjustment frame 520 is provided with a stop 523 for the adapter frame 600 to abut in a first direction. In the first direction, either the adjustment frame 520 or the main frame 510 is provided with multiple adjustment positions, allowing the other to selectively install at one position, thereby adjusting the distance between the stop 523 and the mounting structure 410. Without loss of generality, the adjustment frame 520 having an adjustment position will be used as an example for description. Thus, if the window is located in an environment with high airflow, the user can select an adjustment position farther from the mounting structure 410 for installation of the main frame 510, thereby reducing the distance between the stop 523 and the mounting structure 410. For ease of explanation, a first unit is defined as comprising the mounting bracket 300 and the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. This shortens the distance between the center of gravity of the first unit and the attachment structure 410, reducing the impact of airflow on the first unit and improving the stability of the connection between the attachment structure 410 and the window. For example, if the main frame 510 has an adjustment position, the user can select an adjustment position closer to the attachment structure 410 for the adjustment frame 520 to install, thereby shortening the distance between the stop 523 and the attachment structure 410. It should be noted that the term "multiple" herein refers to at least two.

[0117] In one embodiment, adjacent adjustment positions are spaced apart. This allows for a discontinuous arrangement of the adjustment positions, thereby enabling the load-bearing frame 500 to achieve adjustable positions and reducing the manufacturing cost of the mounting bracket 300. However, this design is not limited thereto; in other embodiments, adjacent adjustment positions are connected. This allows for a continuous arrangement of the adjustment positions as a whole, thereby enabling infinite adjustment of the load-bearing frame 500.

[0118] In one embodiment, the adjustment frame 520 is provided with a first guide slot 524 that slidably engages with the main frame 510, and the first guide slot 524 extends along a first direction. Thus, a user can slide the adjustment frame 520 relative to the main frame 510 via the first guide slot 524. Without loss of generality, the adjustment frame 520 is provided with an adjustment position as an example. It can be understood that the main frame 510 is correspondingly provided with a first mounting position for selecting an adjustment position for installation. During the relative sliding of the main frame 510 and the adjustment frame 520, the first mounting position can pass through all adjustment positions, and the user can stop the first mounting position at the desired adjustment position, thereby facilitating the user's installation of the main frame 510 at that adjustment position. This helps reduce the time required to align the first mounting position with the adjustment position to be installed. In some other embodiments, the main frame 510 may also be provided with a first guide slot 524 that slidably engages with the adjustment frame 520, and the first guide slot 524 extends along the first direction.

[0119] In one embodiment, the load-bearing frame 500 has a first side and a second side that are opposite each other. The first side is provided with a support base 710 for abutting against a wall, so that the first side and the support base 710 can limit the air passage 540. The second side is used to face the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. The load-bearing frame 500 has an air passage area 530 extending from the second side to the first side. The air passage area 530 is connected to the air passage 540. This helps to increase air flow on the second side, thereby increasing the air intake and / or air discharge volume of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200.

[0120] In one embodiment, the support base 710 is disposed on the adjustment frame 520. This allows the support base 710 to be relatively far from the hanging structure 410, providing better support for the support frame and making the mounting bracket 300 more stable. However, the present design is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the support base 710 is disposed on the main frame 510.

[0121] This application also provides an air conditioner, comprising an outdoor air conditioner 200 and the aforementioned mounting bracket 300. The specific structure of the mounting bracket 300 is similar to that of the aforementioned embodiments. Since this air conditioner utilizes all of the technical solutions of all of the aforementioned embodiments, it at least possesses all of the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the aforementioned embodiments, and thus will not be further detailed here. The outdoor air conditioner mounting position 522 of the mounting bracket 300 is used for mounting the outdoor air conditioner 200.

[0122] In one embodiment, the air conditioner further includes an indoor unit equipped with a compressor. Thus, the compressor is located in the indoor unit rather than in the outdoor unit 200 . This helps reduce the force exerted by the outdoor unit 200 on the mounting bracket 300 , which in turn helps reduce the force exerted on the attachment structure 410 , thereby improving the connection stability between the attachment structure 410 and the window structure 110 .

[0123] The above are merely optional embodiments of the present application and do not limit the patent scope of the present application. All equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present application, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
