DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and the embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary.

As shown in FIGS. 1-4, some embodiments of the present application provide a window air conditioner assembly 300 which includes a window air conditioner 200 and a mounting bracket 100. The window air conditioner 200 is mounted to a window by the mounting bracket 100.

The mounting bracket 100 includes a support body 1, a support leg 2 and a support foot 3. The support body 1 is used for supporting the window air conditioner 200. One end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1, the support foot 3 is connected to the other end of the support leg 2, and the support foot 3 is used for supporting on the wall.

The support body 1 can be connected to the window frame or window sill. The support body 1 extends out of the window, and the window air conditioner 200 is placed on the support body 1. The support body 1 is connected to one end of the support leg 2, and the end of the support leg 2 can rotate before being connected to the support body 1, that is, one end of the support leg 2 and the support body 1 have a connected state and a non-connected state, when the two are in the connected state, one end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1, and there is a certain angle between the support leg 2 and the support body 1, so as to facilitate the support with the wall. When the two are in a non-connected state, one end of the support leg 2 can slide and rotate relative to the support body 1, and the sliding can facilitate the adjustment of the connecting position of the support leg and the support body 1, and the rotation can facilitate the switching between the support leg and the support body at different angles and states.

The other end of the support leg 2 is supported on the wall by the support foot 3. The support foot 3 can be rotated relative to the other end of the support leg 2, and has a supporting state and a storage state. When the support foot 3 is in the supporting state, it forms an angle with the support leg 2, and the support foot 3 is supported on the wall, and when the support foot 3 is in the storage state, it also forms an angle with the support leg 2, which can further facilitate storage.

In this way, a closed and stable force-bearing structure can be formed by the wall, the support foot 3, the support leg 2 and the support body 1, thereby forming an effective and stable supporting effect on the window air conditioner 200 positioned on the support body 1.

The support leg 2 is rotatable relative to the support body 1, and when the mounting bracket 100 is in the transportation or storage state, the support leg 2 can be rotated to an angle approximately parallel to the support body 1 to fold the support leg 2, thereby saving the vertical occupied space and facilitating regular placement. When the mounting bracket 100 needs to be used to support the window air conditioner 200 outside the window, in this case, the support leg 2 is rotated from the storage state substantially parallel to the support body 1 to the supporting state having a certain acute angle relationship with the support body 1, that is, at this time, a stable triangular force-bearing structure is formed between the support leg 2, the support body 1 and the wall, so that the mounting bracket 100 can form a stable support for the window air conditioner 200.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the mounting bracket 100 further includes a support pad 4 disposed on the support foot 3, and the support pad 4 is used to contact the wall. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the support foot 3 is provided with a support rib 31 protruding towards one side of the wall, the support pad 4 is provided with a perforation 41 penetrating the support rib, and the support rib 31 is provided in the perforation 41.

The support pad 4 is arranged on the support foot 3, and the support pad 4 is arranged between the support foot 3 and the wall. When the wall receives the force from the support leg 2, on the one hand, the support pad can play a certain vibration damping and buffering effect on the wall to protect the wall; on the other hand, the elastic deformation of the support pad 4 can make the contact between the support foot 3 and the wall more closely.

In addition, the support rib 31 projecting towards the one side of the wall on the support foot 3 is provided with the perforation 41 on the support pad 4, so that on the one hand, the support foot 3 and the support pad 4 can form a limiting relationship to avoid mutual sliding, thereby ensuring assembly stability; on the other hand, after the support pad 4 is pre-contacted with the wall, when the support pad 4 is elastically deformed and compressed, the support rib 31 extends to the outside of the perforation 41 of the support pad 4 and comes into hard contact with the wall, so that the contact tightness between the support foot 3 and the wall can be further increased, the risk of the support foot 3 slipping from the wall can be prevented, and the supporting stability of the window air conditioner 200 by the mounting bracket 100 can be improved.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the support ribs 31 extend in the left-right direction, and the perforation 41 correspondingly extends in the left-right direction.

Since the gravity direction is the up-down direction, the support rib 31 extends in the left-right direction, so that the contact area between the support rib 31 and the wall on the same horizontal plane height can be increased, and the friction force at this position can be increased, so as to effectively prevent the support rib 31 from sliding down. Moreover, the support ribs 31 are structurally concentrated at the same level, so that the force exerted by the support ribs 31 on the wall at this level can be strengthened.

Furthermore, the perforation 41 corresponds to the support rib 31, which also extend in the left-right direction, so that the risk that the support rib 31 easily slide relatively within the perforation 41 can be avoided, thereby ensuring the installation stability between the support foot 3 and the support pad 4.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 12, the distance from the support rib 31 to the upper end of the support foot 3 and the distance from the support rib 31 to the lower end of the support foot 3 are both greater than the distance from the support rib 31 to the center of the support foot 3, so that the support rib 31 can be located close to the middle of the support foot 3, and the middle position of the support foot 3 is also the main position where the wall bears the force, therefore such arrangement allows the support rib 31 to better transmit the force from the support leg 2 to the wall, thereby ensuring tighter contact between the support rib 31 and the wall.

The distance from the perforation 41 to the upper end of the support pad 4 and the distance from the perforation 41 to the lower end of the support pad 4 are both greater than the distance from the perforation 41 to the center of the support pad 4, so that the arrangement form of the perforation 41 on the support pad 4 can correspond to the arrangement form of the support rib 31 on the support foot 3, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the support pad 4 and the support foot 3.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 12, a side surface of the support pad 4 facing the wall is provided with an anti-slip rib 42. The anti-slip rib 42 is provided at intervals from the perforation 41, and a side surface of the anti-slip rib 42 facing the wall is provided with an anti-slip bump 421.

The anti-slip rib 42 can concentrate the acting force on the support pad 4 on the anti-slip rib 42, thereby forming a relatively large pressure, and further enhancing the friction force between the support pad 4 and the wall. The anti-slip rib 42 and the perforation 41 are arranged at intervals so as to avoid interference with each other.

The anti-slip bump 421 can further concentrate the acting force on the anti-slip rib 42 on the anti-slip bump 421, thereby forming a greater pressure, enhancing the friction force between the support pad 4 and the wall, and ensuring closer contact between the support foot 3 and the wall. The anti-slip bump 421 may be a circular bump or an elliptical bump, but is not limited thereto.

As shown in FIGS. 12 and 15, the anti-slip ribs 42 extend in the left-right direction, and a plurality of anti-slip bumps 421 distributed at intervals in the left-right direction are provided on the side surface of each of the anti-slip ribs 42 facing the wall.

The plurality of anti-slip ribs 42 are arranged up and down at intervals and extend in the left-right direction, so that the friction force between the anti-slip ribs 42 and the wall in the up-down direction can be increased, so as to ensure that the support foot 3 does not have a risk of up and down sliding. The plurality of anti-slip bumps 421 on each of the anti-slip ribs 42 are similarly arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, so that the frictional force between the anti-slip bumps 421 and the wall in the up-down direction can be further increased, thereby avoiding the problem that the support foot 3 slips in the up-down direction.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, the support foot 3 is provided with a first through hole 32, and the side surface of the support pad 4 facing the support foot 3 is provided with a protrusion 43, and the protrusion 43 is fitted in the first through hole 32.

The protrusion 43 on the support pad 4 is in limiting fit with the first through hole 32 of the support foot 3, so that the assembly stability between the support pad 4 and the support foot 3 can be increased, and the risk of relative shaking between the support pad and the support foot will not occur.

As shown in FIG. 13, the support rib 31 is connected to the upper edge of the first through hole 32, the support rib 31 is structured in a flat plate shape, and the support rib 31 is formed by bending a portion of the support foot 3 corresponding to the first through hole 32, so that the support rib 31 can also play a role of opening the first through hole 32 in the support foot 3 to adapt to the support upper protrusion 43 on the premise that the support rib is integrally molded in the support foot 3, thereby improving the practicability and scientific design of the support foot 3.

For example, the support rib 31 is located at the upper edge of the first through hole 32, so that the plate originally corresponding to the first through hole 32 can be obtained by simply bending after the hole is opened.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the side edge and partial lower edge of the first through hole 32 are configured as curved edges, and the side surface and partial lower surface of the protrusion 43 are configured as curved surfaces, and the curved edges are adapted to mate with the curved surfaces.

The upper edge of the first through hole 32 is formed with a shape difference from its own side edge and the lower edge. When the protrusion 43 on the support pad 4 is assembled with the first through hole 32 on the support foot 3, this configuration serves as a fool-proof mechanism, preventing the support pad 4 and the support foot 3 from being incorrectly assembled upside down.

In addition, both the curved edge and the curved surface can decompose the received force into horizontal and vertical component forces, so that the forces can be uniformly transferred, thus avoiding the problem of easy structural damage caused by stress concentration.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 12, 14 and 15, the support pad 4 includes a pad body 44 and a bent portion 45. The pad body 44 is provided with the perforation 41, the pad body 44 is used for contact with a wall, and the bent portion 45 is respectively connected to the upper end and the lower end of the pad body 44, the bent portion 45 is bent relative to the pad body 44, and the bent portion 45 and the pad body 44 are respectively located on opposite sides of the support foot 3.

That is, the upper and lower ends of the pad body 44 are connected to the bent portions 45, and the bent portions 45 are bent towards the support foot 3, so that the bent portion 45 on the support pad 4 can form a limit action in the up-down direction on the support foot 3, thereby ensuring the installation stability between the support pad 4 and the support foot 3, while the bent portion 45 can also play a role in strengthening the structural strength of the support foot 3 and the support pad 4, and can also play a role in protecting the upper and lower edges of the support foot 3 to a certain extent.

Furthermore, the perforation 41 is provided on the pad body 44 facing the wall, so that the support rib 31 on the support foot 3 can directly contact the wall by passing through the perforation 41, so that the support rib 31 can make a hard contact with the wall and strengthen the tightness of the connection.

As shown in FIG. 13, the bent portion 45 is provided with a limiting protrusion, the support foot 3 is provided with a limiting hole 33, and the limiting protrusion is in limiting fit with the limiting hole 33 in the up-down direction.

The limiting protrusion on the bent portion 45 is in limiting fit with the limiting hole 33 on the support foot 3, so that the installation stability between the support foot 3 and the support pad 4 can be further enhanced. The width of the bent portion 45 located at the upper end of the support pad 4 may be smaller than the width of the bent portion 45 located at the lower end of the support pad 4.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, the support foot 3 can be rotated relative to the support leg 2, so that the relative positional relationship between the support leg and the support foot can be adjusted by rotating by a certain angle. For example, when the mounting bracket 100 is transported or stored, the support foot 3 can be rotated to be substantially flush with the support leg 2, thereby reducing the occupied space volume and improving the stacking storage efficiency. As another example, when the mounting bracket 100 needs to be mounted to support the window air conditioner 200, the support foot 3 is rotated to an appropriate angle to be in surface contact with the wall, thereby increasing the friction force.

As shown in FIGS. 9 and 17, one end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1, the support foot 3 is connected to the other end of the support leg 2, and the other end of the support leg 2 is provided with a first abutment portion 21. The first abutment portion 21 abuts and engages with the support foot 3 when the support foot 3 is rotated to a preset position relative to the support leg 2.

The other end of the support leg 2 is provided with the first abutment portion 21 capable of mutually abutting with the support foot 3, that is, when the support foot 3 is rotated to a preset position relative to the support leg 2, the first abutment portion 21 and the support foot 3 are abutted and matched. In this case, the support foot 3 can maintain the relative angular position of the support foot 3 and the support leg 2 under the common force of the wall and the support leg 2, and prevent the support foot 3 from having an unexpected rotation action relative to the support leg 2, so as to ensure the support stability of the mounting bracket 100.

The support foot 3 is rotatable relative to the support leg 2. When the mounting bracket 100 is in a transport or storage state, the support foot 3 can be rotated to an angle approximately parallel to the support leg 2 to retract the support foot 3, thereby saving vertical space and facilitating neat arrangement. When the mounting bracket 100 is required to support the window air conditioner 200 on the outdoor side of the window, the support foot 3 is rotated from the retracted state (approximately parallel to the support leg 2) to a supporting state where it forms an acute angle with the support leg 2. In this state, the support leg 2 enables the support foot 3 to establish a surface contact relationship with the wall, ensuring that the support foot 3 stably contacts the wall and thereby improving the support stability of the mounting bracket 100.

The first abutment portion 21 is provided to be bent relative to the support leg 2, and the first abutment portion 21 has an abutment surface 212, and the abutment surface 212 comes into surface contact with the support foot 3 when the support foot 3 rotates to a preset position relative to the support leg 2.

The first abutment portion 21 is located at the other end of the support leg 2, and is bent relative to the main body of the support leg 2, which can change the structural extension direction of the support leg 2, so that when the support foot 3 rotates relative to the support leg 2 to the preset position where the support foot 3 is in surface contact with the abutment surface 212, the support foot 3 is blocked by the abutment surface 212 and cannot continue to rotate towards the support leg 2, thus allowing the support foot 3 to reach a suitable angle for contact with the wall.

In addition, compared with the traditional mounting bracket (when the support foot is rotated in place relative to the support body, the support foot and the support leg are in line contact), and after the support foot 3 is rotated to the preset position, the support foot 3 and the support leg 2 are in surface contact, so that the force contact area of the support foot 3 and the support leg 2 can be increased, thereby enhancing the support stability of the support foot 3 and the support leg 2, and further improving the support reliability of the mounting bracket 100.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 16, the support leg 2 includes a leg body plate 22 and leg side plates 23, the leg side plates 23 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the leg body plate 22, one end of the leg body plate 22 and/or one end of the leg side plate 23 is connected to the support body 1, and the other end of the leg side plate 23 is connected to the support foot 3. Here, the first abutment portion 21 is connected to the leg body plate 22 and the leg side plate 23, respectively, and the first abutment portion 21 is bent relative to the support body plate 22.

The opposite sides of the leg body plate 22 are respectively connected to the leg side plates 23, and the two ends of the leg body plate 22 are respectively connected to the support body 1 and the support foot 3, so that the support leg 2 can serve as a force transmission channel between the support body 1 and the support foot 3. Furthermore, the first abutment portion 21 is connected to the leg body plate 22 and the leg side plate 23, thereby enhancing the structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness of the first abutment portion 21.

Furthermore, the first abutment portion 21 changes the original extending direction of the leg body plate 22, so that it is convenient to form a certain angle with the leg body plate 22, Thus, the support foot 3 can abut against the first abutment portion 21 (at this time, the position of the support foot 3 abutting against the first abutment portion 21 also allows the support foot 3 to form a certain angle with the leg body plate 22, facilitating stable contact of the support foot 3 with the wall surface).

As shown in FIGS. 9 and 16, the support pad 4 is provided on the support foot 3, and the support pad 4 is used to contact the wall. The other end of the leg body plate 22 and the first abutment portion 21 together form an avoiding hole 221, the avoiding hole 221 is used for fitting with the support pad 4 for avoidance.

The support pad 4 for contacting the wall is provided on the support foot 3, and the other end of the leg body plate 22 and the first abutment portion 21 together form an avoiding hole 221 for avoiding the support pad 4, so that the structural interference problem between the leg body plate 22 and the support pad 4 and between the first abutment portion 21 and the support pad 4 can be avoided, and the design rationality of the support leg 2 can be improved.

The bent portion 45 connected to the upper end of the pad body 44 is in avoidance fit with the avoiding hole 221. The bent portion 45 at the upper end of the pad body 44 is bent and extends towards the support foot 3, and the avoiding hole 221 on the support leg 2 can be used to avoid the bent portion 45 to avoid structural interference therebetween, and the two do not interfere with each other, thereby improving the rationality of the arrangement thereof.

As shown in FIGS. 11 and 17, when the support foot 3 is rotated to the preset position with respect to the support leg 2, the projection 43 is spaced from the first abutment portion 21. During the rotation of the support foot 3 relative to the support leg 2 until the preset position, there is no structural interference phenomenon between the projection 43 and the first abutment portion 21, thereby ensuring that the projection 43 and the first abutment portion 21 do not interfere with each other and work normally.

As shown in FIG. 9, a transition portion 222 is configured at the connection between the other end of the leg body plate 22 and the first abutment portion 21. This configuration, on one hand, allows stress to transition uniformly at the transition portion 222, avoiding stress concentration issues at the connection between the other end of the leg main plate 22 and the first abutment portion 21. On the other hand, the transition portion 222 accommodates the rotation path of the support foot 3 relative to the support leg 2, thereby improving the rationality of its arrangement.

In some embodiments, the transition portion 222 may be a transition arc.

As shown in FIG. 13, the support foot 3 includes a foot main plate 34 and foot side plates 35. The foot side plates 35 are connected to opposite sides of the foot main plate 34, respectively, the foot side plates 35 correspond one-to-one with the leg side plates 23, and the foot side plates 35 and the leg side plates 23 are rotatably connected via rotating shafts 36.

The foot main plate 34 and the foot side plates 35 correspond to the leg body plate 22 and the leg side plates 23, respectively, and the foot side plates 35 and the leg side plates 23 are rotatably connected via the rotating shafts 36, this facilitates the relative rotation of the support foot 3 with respect to the support leg 2.

As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the first abutment portion 21 and a portion where the leg side plate 23 and the first abutment portion 21 are connected are located between the foot side plates 35 on opposite sides of the foot main plate 34. That is, the support leg 2 is located inside the support foot 3, thereby increasing a contact area of the support foot 3 facing the wall, resulting in an increase in the frictional force between the support foot 3 and the wall.

As shown in FIG. 9, the foot side plate 35 is provided with a first mounting hole 351, and the leg side plate 23 is provided with a second mounting hole 231, and the first mounting hole 351 is provided opposite to the second mounting hole 231. The rotating shaft 36 may be configured as a screw. The screw is threaded through the first mounting hole 351 and the second mounting hole 231 in sequence. The screw is threaded with the second mounting hole 231 and rotatable relative to the first mounting hole 351.

The screw sequentially passes through the first mounting hole 351 on the foot side plate 35 and the second mounting hole 231 on the leg side plate 23, so that the foot side plate 35 and the leg side plate 23 can be connected into a single unit. Moreover, the screw is screwed with the second mounting hole 231 on the leg side plate 23 located inside the foot side plate 35, this design facilitates easy assembly and disassembly on one hand, and provides self-locking properties on the other hand, thereby preventing the screw from easily slipping out of the second mounting hole 231. Additionally, the screw can also serve as the rotating shaft 36, enabling the support foot 3 to rotate relative to the support leg 2 around the screw.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9, the leg body plate 22 is provided with a first groove 223 extending along its length direction, so that a spatial mode of the leg body plate 22 can be increased, thereby enhancing the bending and torsional stiffness of the leg body plate 22.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the support body 1 is provided with a plurality of first connection holes 11, and one end of the support leg 2 is provided with a second connection hole 24. The mounting bracket 100 further includes a fastener that passes through one of the plurality of first connection holes 11 and the second connection hole 24 to connect the support body 1 and the support leg 2.

The fastener can selectively pass through one of the plurality of first connection holes 11 on the support body 1 and connect with the second connection hole 24 on the support leg 2, thereby integrating the support body 1 and the support leg 2 into a single unit, which facilitates the adjustment of the connection position of the support leg 2 on the support body 1, and thus flexibly adjusts the reasonable position of the support leg 2 connected to the support body 1 according to the distance between the length of the support leg 2 and the wall position, thereby improving the practicality and versatility of the mounting bracket 100.

The plurality of first connection holes 11 penetrate the support body 1 in the up-down direction, the second connection hole 24 penetrates one end of the support leg 2 in the up-down direction, and the fastener passes through one of the plurality of first connection holes 11 and the second connection hole 24 in the up-down direction.

Both the first connection hole 11 and the second connection hole 24 are opened in the up-down direction, as compared with the conventional arrangement of the mounting bracket (the mounting holes are opened in the left-right direction), this configuration allows the user to observe the installation status of the fastener conveniently (since the mounting bracket 100 is on the outside of the wall when the window air conditioner 200 is installed, while the user is on the inside of the wall, making it easier to observe in a front view than a side view), thereby reducing the installation difficulty of the mounting bracket 100 and improving the installation convenience.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 8, 18 and 19, the fastener is a screw, and a lower surface of one end of the support leg 2 is provided with a sleeve portion 25. The sleeve portion 25 surrounds the second connection hole 24, and the screw is threaded with the sleeve portion 25 after being successively passed through the first connection hole 11 and the second connection hole 24.

That is to say, the screw sequentially passes through the first connection hole 11 and the second connection hole 24 from top to bottom, and then threaded with the sleeve part 25, thereby eliminating the need for using a traditional nut to fix the screw in the connection structure, instead directly connecting the screw to the support leg 2, so that the number of parts can be reduced and the assembly efficiency can be improved.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 19, the first connection hole 11 is configured as an elongated hole in the left-right direction, the middle portion of the first connection hole 11 is provided with a connection groove 111, the fastener passes through the middle portion of the first connection hole 11, and the fastener engages with the connection groove 111.

Since the cross section of the fastener is circular, the connection groove 111 is provided in the middle portion of the first connection hole 11, which accommodates the outer contour of the fastener as it passes through the first connection hole 11, allowing the fastener to smoothly pass through the first connection hole 11, thereby enhancing the rationality of its arrangement. Of course, the first connection hole 11 may be a circular hole, but the present application is not limited thereto.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 19, one end of the support leg 2 is provided with a limiting portion 26, and the limiting portion 26 is in limiting fit with another one of the plurality of first connection holes 11 in the front-rear direction.

When the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1, the limiting portion 26 on one end of the support leg 2 extends into the first connection hole 11, and the first connection hole 11 can limit the limiting portion 26 in the front-rear direction, thereby improving the installation stability of the support body 1 and the support leg 2 in the front-rear direction.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, the limiting portion 26 is located at an edge of one end of the support leg 2, and the limiting portion 26 is configured as a bent plate bent relative to one end of the support leg 2. The limiting portion 26 is a bent plate bent at one end edge of the support leg 2 towards the support body 1, and this arrangement can facilitate the integral molding of the limiting portion 26 on the support leg 2, thereby reducing manufacturing difficulty.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 16, the support leg 2 includes a leg body plate 22, leg side plates 23, and a second abutment portion 27. The leg side plates 23 are connected to opposite sides of the leg body plate 22, respectively. The leg side plates 23 are connected to the support foot 3, and the second abutment portion 27 is connected to the leg body plate 22 and the leg side plate 23, respectively. The second abutment portion 27 is bent relative to the leg body plate 22, and the second connection hole 24 is provided on the second abutment portion 27.

For example, when the support leg 2 is open in the supporting state, an upper end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1, the leg side plate 23 at the lower end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support foot 3, and the second abutment portion 27 is bent relative to the extending direction of the upper end of the leg body plate 22, which can change the extending direction of the leg body plate 22, enabling the second abutment portion 27 to achieve surface contact with the support body 1, thereby enhancing the force contact area between the support leg 2 and the support body 1, and enhancing the support stability and reliability of the support leg 2 relative to the support body 1.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 16, the support body 1 has a sliding groove 12 formed below the plurality of first connection holes 11, the leg side plate 23 is provided with a sliding portion 233, and one end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1 after the sliding portions 233 slides within the sliding groove 12 to a preset position.

As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the leg side plates 23 on both sides of the support leg 2 have sliding portions 233 on the side surfaces facing the support body 1, and the sliding portions 233 can slide in the sliding groove 12, so that the connection position between the support leg 2 and the support body 1 can be adjusted to a suitable preset position by pulling or pushing the support leg 2 on the premise that the support leg 2 does not fall on the sliding groove 12, thereby saving the effort required when the user installs and adjusts the installation position of the support leg 2, and further improving the installation convenience.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 and 20, the support body 1 includes at least two support rods 13 spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction, i.e., at least two support rods 13 are spaced apart along the length direction of the mounting pole assembly 15. In some optional embodiments, the support body 1 may include one support rod.

The support rods 13 include a rod main plate 131, rod side plates 132 and rod flanges 133. The rod main plate 131 is provided with a plurality of first connection holes 11. The rod side plates 132 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the rod main plate 131, and the rod flanges 133 are connected to the lower edges of the rod side plates 132. The rod flanges 133, the rod side plates 132, and the rod main plate 131 together form the sliding groove 12.

In some optional embodiments, at least two support rods 13 spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction may form a symmetrical support structure on both sides of the window air conditioner 200. The rod main plate 131 is provided with a plurality of first connection holes 11 penetrating in the up-down direction. The rod side plates 132 are bent and connected to the opposite left and right sides of the rod main plate 131. The rod flanges 133 are bent and connected to the lower edges of the rod side plates 132, and the rod flanges 133 and the rod main plate 131 correspond to each other in the up-down direction. This configuration allows for the formation of a sliding groove 12 extending in the front-rear direction within the support body 1, facilitating the sliding fit between the sliding portion 233 on the support leg 2 and the sliding groove 12.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in connection with FIGS. 18 and 20-21, the rod side plate 132 is provided with a plurality of third mounting holes 1321, and the leg side plate 23 is provided with a fourth mounting hole. The fourth mounting hole is selectively disposed opposite one of the plurality of third mounting holes 1321 as an alternate mounting method.

That is, the rod side plate 132 and the leg side plate 23 are formed with a plurality of third mounting holes 1321 and the fourth mounting hole in the left-right direction, respectively, which allows the support body 1 and the support leg 2 to be connected into a single unit by selectively threading the fastener through one of the plurality of third mounting holes 1321 and the fourth mounting hole. This connection method can serve as a supplementary alternative method for connecting and fastening the support body 1 and the support leg 2 in the up-down direction, thereby increasing the diversity of choice of installation methods and improving the installation flexibility.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 7, the support body 1 is provided with a recessed groove 14 extending along its length direction. A plurality of first connection holes 11 are provided in the bottom wall of the recessed groove 14, and the head of the fastener is located in the recessed groove 14.

The recessed groove 14 can increase the spatial mode of the support body 1, thereby enhancing the bending and torsional stiffness of the support body 1. In addition, since the recessed groove 14 is lower than the upper surface of the support body 1, the first connection hole 11 is opened at the bottom wall of the recessed groove 14, so that the head of the fastener can be placed in the recessed groove 14 without protruding from the upper surface of the support body 1, thereby avoiding structural interference effect on the window air conditioner 200 located above the support body 1, thereby improving the placement stability of the window air conditioner 200 by the support body 1 and the rationality of structural design.

For example, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 38 and 39, the support body 1 is provided with a plurality of mounting hole marks 141 on one side of the recessed groove 14, and the plurality of mounting hole marks 141 are provided at uniform intervals along the length direction of the support body 1 on one side of the recessed groove 14.

In the length direction (that is, in the front-rear direction) of the support body 1, a plurality of mounting hole marks 141 are arranged at uniform intervals on one side of the recessed groove 14, serving as indications for the position of the mounting hole, so that the user can quickly find the corresponding position of the mounting hole according to the indications, thereby improving the installation efficiency. For example, the indications may be A, B, C, D, E, F, G, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or the like, but is not limited thereto.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 18-22, one end of the sliding groove 12 is provided with a limiting baffle 121, and when the sliding portion 233 slides to one end of the sliding groove 12, the limiting baffle 121 is in limiting fit with the sliding portion 233. The other end of the sliding groove 12 is provided with a limiting flange 122, and when the sliding portion 233 slides to the other end of the sliding groove 12, the limiting flange 122 is in limiting fit with the sliding portion 233.

For example, the sliding groove 12 is provided with the limiting baffle 121 at one end away from the support foot 3 in the length direction of the support body 1, and when the sliding portion 233 on the support leg 2 slides to one end of the sliding groove 12, the limiting baffle 121 limits the sliding portion 233 to prevent the sliding portion 233 from continuing to move towards the limiting baffle 121. The other end of the sliding groove 12 forms the limiting flange 122, which can also prevent the sliding portion 233 from continuing to move towards the limiting flange 122. In summary, this arrangement can limit the sliding displacement interval of the sliding portion 233, thereby avoiding the risk of the sliding portion 233 falling out of the sliding groove 12, and thus ensuring the installation safety of the mounting bracket 100.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 21 and 22, the limiting baffle 121 and the limiting flange 122 are respectively connected to both ends of the rod flange 133, the basis that the sliding portion 233 is slidably arranged on the sliding groove 12, a limiting structure can also be formed for the sliding portion 233 at both ends of the sliding groove 12, to control the sliding range of the sliding portion 233, thereby preventing the sliding portion 233 from disengaging from the sliding groove 12.

The limiting baffle 121 is provided at one end of the rod flange 133 to be bent towards the rod main plate 131. In this case, the limiting baffle 121 is provided at the end of the rod flange 133 away from the wall to be bent towards the rod main plate 131, so that the sliding portion 233 can be prevented from continuing to move away from the wall, the position where the movement of the sliding portion is limited at this time is the extreme limit of how far the sliding portion 233 can move relative to the wall.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 7, 8, 18, and 20, the rod main plate 131 includes a first plate body 1311, a second plate body 1312, and a third plate body 1313. The second plate body 1312 is connected between the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313. The first plate body 1311 is higher than the third plate body 1313, the second plate body 1312 is inclined relative to the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313. The rod flange 133 is located below the third plate body 1313, and the limiting flange 122 is located below the second plate body 1312.

For example, since the first plate body 1311, the second plate body 1312, and the third plate body 1313 are sequentially connected in the length direction of the support rod 13 away from the wall, and the first plate body 1311 is higher than the third plate body 1313, the second plate body 1312 is obliquely connected between the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313, so that the support rod 13 is inclined to a certain extent in the length direction, to ensure that the window air conditioner 200 is slightly inclined to the outdoor side after being mounted to the mounting bracket 100, thereby facilitating the flow of condensed water to the outdoor side of the base of the air conditioner.

In addition, the third plate body 1313 is horizontally arranged, and the rod flange 133 is located below the third plate body 1313, which can facilitate the rod main plate 131 and the rod side plate 132 connected to the third plate body to form a straight-extending sliding groove 12 together, so that the sliding portion 233 can smoothly slide in the sliding groove 12. The second plate body 1312 is inclined, that is, the second plate body 1312 forms a bend with the sliding groove 12, so that the bent region and the limiting flange 122 can jointly prevent the sliding portion 233 from falling off.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 8, 20 and 21, the rod flanges 133 located on one side are respectively connected to the corresponding limiting baffle 121 and the limiting flange 122; and the rod flange 133 located on the other side is only connected to the corresponding limiting baffle 121.

The rod flanges 133 on both sides of the support rod 13 are arranged with limiting baffles 121 on one end away from the wall, which ensures that the support leg 2 can not come out of the support rod 13 at the end away from the wall, while at the end of the support rod 13 close to the wall, the rod flange 133 at one side has a limiting flange 122 and has no limiting flange 122 at the other side, so that on the one hand, the sliding portion 233 can be limited, and on the other hand, the support leg 2 can be taken out from the side rod flange 133 that does not have the non-limiting flange 122 under the disassembly requirement of the user, thereby improving its practicality and convenience.

In some implementations, combined with FIGS. 8, 20 and 22, the rod flange 133 on each side is respectively connected to the corresponding limiting baffle 121 and the limiting flange 122, and the limiting flange 122 on one side is provided with the sliding portion avoiding hole 221. In this way, under the premise that the limiting flange 122 forms a limiting effect on the sliding portion 233, a notch (i.e., the sliding portion avoiding hole 221) also be provided to allow the sliding portion 233 to escape from the sliding groove 12.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 7-9 and 16, the support leg 2 includes a leg body plate 22 and the leg side plates 23. The leg side plates 23 are connected to opposite sides of the leg body plate 22, respectively, and the leg side plates 23 are connected to the support foot 3. Each leg side plate 23 is provided with the sliding portion 233. That is, in the left-right direction, the sliding portions 233 are provided on both sides of each leg side plate 23, so that each support leg 2 can slide in the sliding groove 12 of the support rod 13, thereby improving the installation flexibility of the mounting bracket 100.

Optionally, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 and 16, the sliding portion 233 is configured as a sliding plate. The leg side plate 23 is provided with a second through hole 234, and the sliding plate is formed by bending the plate material originally located at the second through hole when the second through hole 234 is opened. This configuration allows the sliding portion 233 to be integrally formed with the leg side plate 23 while also enabling the sliding portion 233 to slide within the sliding groove 12 by bending the plate material corresponding to the second through hole 234. As a result, the functional diversity and practicality of structure of the support leg 2 are enhanced.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 7, 9 and 16, the support leg 2 includes a second abutment portion 27, the second abutment portion 27 is connected to the leg body plate 22 and the leg side plate 23, respectively. The second abutment portion 27 is bent relative to the leg body plate 22, and the second abutment portion 27 abuts against the support body 1 for abutment after the support leg 2 is rotated to a preset position relative to the support body 1.

The upper end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support body 1, the leg side plate 23 at the lower end of the support leg 2 is connected to the support foot 3, and the second abutment portion 27 is bent relative to the extending direction of the upper end of the original leg body plate 22, so that the extending direction of the leg main body can be changed. When the support leg 2 is rotated relative to the support body 1 until the second abutment portion 27 is in surface contact with the support body 1, this allows the second abutment portion 27 and the support body 1 to form surface-to-surface abutment, thereby increasing the force-bearing contact area between the support leg 2 and the support body 1, and further enhancing the supporting stability and reliability of the support leg 2 to the support body 1.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 20, after the support leg 2 is rotated to a preset position relative to the support body 1, the sliding portion 233 is in limiting fit with the rod flange 133 in the up-down direction. When the sliding portion 233 slides in the sliding groove 12, the sliding portion 233 is spaced apart from the rod flange 133 in the up-down direction.

For example, when the support leg 2 rotates relative to the support body 1 to a preset position where the second abutment portion 27 and the lower surface of the rod main plate 131 form a surface abutment, the connection between the support leg 2 and the support body 1 is more stable at this time. The rod flange 133 and the sliding portion 233 form a limiting fit relationship in this case, which can restrict the range of downwards movement of the sliding portion 233 during the rotation of the support body 1, thereby ensuring that both the requirement for the second abutment portion 27 to rotate smoothly within a limited space to achieve surface contact with the support body 1 and the prevention of structural interference between the sliding portion 233 and the rod flange 133 during the rotation of the support leg 2 to the preset position are taken into account, and improving the rationality of its arrangement.

For another example, when the sliding portion 233 slides in the sliding groove 12 to adjust the relative position between the support leg 2 and the support body 1, the sliding portion 233 and the rod flange 133 maintain a certain distance in the up-down direction, so that a certain space allowance can be left for the sliding portion 233 in the process of rotating with the support body 1, and the risk of structural interference between the sliding portion 233 and the rod flange 133 in the rotation path can be avoided.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 7, 23, and 24, the support body 1 includes a mounting pole assembly 15, at least two support rods 13, and a first connecting rod 16. The mounting pole assembly 15, the at least two support rods 13 and the first connecting rod 16 constitute the main structural profile of the support body 1.

For example, the mounting pole assembly 15 is used to be installed on a window sill or window frame. At least two support rods 13 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. One end of each of at least two support rods 13 is connected to the mounting pole assembly 15. At least two support rods 13 are used to support the window air conditioner 200. The support legs 2 are at least two in number and connected in one-to-one correspondence with the support rods 13, and the other end of each of at least two support rods 13 is connected to the first connecting rod 16. At least two support rods 13 and the first connecting rod 16 are integrally formed.

In some optional embodiments, at least two support rods 13 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, the mounting pole assembly 15 is connected to one ends of the at least two support rods 13 close to the wall, and the first connecting rod 16 is connected to the other ends of the at least two support rods 13 away from the wall, so that the support body 1 can be constructed as a frame-like stabilizing force structure.

In some optional embodiments, at least two support rods 13 are used to support the window air conditioner 200 outside the window, and the mounting pole assembly 15 is used to be mounted to the window sill or window frame, so that the support body 1 can establish a connection relationship with the window sill or window frame, and the first connecting rod 16 is connected at the other ends of at least two support rods 13, which can strengthen the overall structural strength of the support body 1.

In addition, at least two support rods 13 and the first connecting rod 16 are integrally molded, and as compared with the split connection, such an arrangement can be beneficial to increasing the structural strength of the support body 1, improving the overall structural consistency of the support body 1, and can eliminate the need for mutual fixing and mounting steps, thereby effectively improving the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the support body 1.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, combined with FIGS. 7, 23 and 24, the support body 1 further includes a second connecting rod 17, one end of each of at least two support rods 13 is connected to the second connecting rod 17, and the second connecting rod 17 is connected to the mounting pole assembly 15; and at least two support rods 13, the first connecting rod 16, and the second connecting rod 17 are integrally formed.

One end of each of at least two support rods 13 close to the wall is connected to the second connecting rod 17. Since the outdoor unit of the window air conditioner 200 is mainly located on the support rod 13, the end farthest from the window on the support rod 13 is the fulcrum, then the end closest to the window receives the largest turning torque at this time, so the second connecting rod 17 is provided here, which can increase the structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness of the support body 1, and prevent the risk of easy overturning of the support body 1.

In addition, at least two support rods 13, the first connecting rod 16, and the second connecting rod 17 are integrally formed. As compared with the split connection, such arrangement can be beneficial to increasing the structural strength of the support body 1, improving the overall structural consistency of the support body 1, and can eliminate the installation links fixed to each other, thereby effectively improving the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the support body 1.

In some optional embodiments, combined with FIGS. 7, 23 and 24, the support body 1 further includes a third connecting rod 18 extending in a length direction of the support rod 13. The third connecting rod 18 is connected between the first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17, and located between two adjacent support rods 13. At least two support rods 13, the first connecting rod 16, the second connecting rod 17, and the third connecting rod 18 are integrally formed.

For example, the third connecting rod 18 extends in the front-rear direction and is connected between the first connecting rod 16 and the second connecting rod 17, and the third connecting rod 18 and the two adjacent support rods 13 are provided at intervals in the left-right direction, so that the number of support structures for supporting the window air conditioner 200 can be increased, thus the support frame density of the support body 1 can be increased, and the overall structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness of the support body 1 can be increased, thus the structural reliability of the support body 1 can be increased.

In addition, at least two support rods 13, the first connecting rod 16, the second connecting rod 17, and the third connecting rod 18 are integrally formed, and compared with the split connection, such arrangement can be beneficial to increasing the structural strength of the support body 1, improving the overall structural consistency of the support body 1, and can eliminate the installation links fixed to each other, thereby effectively improving the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the support body 1.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 7, 23 and 24, the support body 1 further includes a fourth connecting rod 19 extending in a width direction of the support rod 13. The fourth connecting rod 19 is connected between two adjacent support rods 13. The third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19 are connected in an intersecting manner to form a hole around the third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19, so as to reduce the weight of the support body 1. A mounting grip portion 191 is formed at the intersection of the third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19.

For example, the fourth connecting rod 19 extends in the left-right direction and is connected between two adjacent support rods 13, and the third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19 are connected in an intersecting manner, so that the number of support structures for supporting the window air conditioner 200 can be increased, thus the support frame density of the support body 1 can be increased, and the overall structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness of the support body 1 can be further increased, thus the structural reliability of the support body 1 can be increased.

The hole for weight-reducing is formed around the third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19, which is beneficial to reduce the overall weight of the support body 1, and thus is beneficial to realize the lightweight of the support body 1.

Further, the mounting grip portion 191 is formed at the intersection of the third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19, so that the user can easily hold the support body 1 by hand, thereby improving the convenience of the user in carrying the support body 1.

In some implementations, as shown in FIGS. 7, 23, and 24, at least two support rods 13, the first connecting rod 16, the second connecting rod 17, the third connecting rod 18 and the fourth connecting rod 19 are integrally formed, and compared with the split connection, such an arrangement can be beneficial to increasing the structural strength of the support body 1, improving the overall structural consistency of the support body 1, and can eliminate the need for mutual fixing and assembly steps, thereby effectively improving the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the support body 1.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, the second connecting rod 17 is formed with a downwardly recessed second groove 171, and the second groove 171 also extends to the support rod 13, so that the spatial mode on the second connecting rod 17 and the support rod 13 can be increased, thereby enhancing the structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness at the second connecting rod 17 where the stress is highly concentrated. Furthermore, the second groove 171 is recessed downwards in the second connecting rod 17, and does not interfere with the loading operation of the window air conditioner 200 above.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, the bottom of the second groove 171 is provided with a drainage hole 1711, so that the window air conditioner 200 and the outside water gathered in the second groove 171 can be discharged through the drainage hole 1711, thereby ensuring that the accumulated water can be discharged from the mounting bracket 100 in time.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 20, the support rod 13 includes a rod main plate 131, the rod main plate 131 includes a first plate body 1311, a second plate body 1312, and a third plate body 1313. One end of the first plate body 1311 is connected to the mounting pole assembly 15. The second plate body 1312 is connected between the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313. The first plate body 1311 is higher than the third plate body 1313, and the second plate body 1312 is inclined relative to the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313. Here, the first plate body 1311 is inclined rearwards and downwards with respect to the mounting pole assembly 15. An angle between the first plate body 1311 and the horizontal plane is denoted as α, and a satisfies the relationship: α≥2°.

For example, since the first plate body 1311, the second plate body 1312, and the third plate body 1313 are sequentially connected in the length direction of the support rod 13 away from the wall, and the first plate body 1311 is higher than the third plate body 1313, the second plate body 1312 is obliquely connected between the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313, so that the support rod 13 is inclined to a certain extent in the length direction, to ensure that after the window air conditioner 200 is mounted to the mounting bracket 100, the window air conditioner 200 exhibits an overall trend of being slightly inclined towards the outdoor side, thereby facilitating the flow of condensed water to the outdoor side of the base of the air conditioner.

As another example, the first plate body 1311 is inclined rearwards and downwards relative to the mounting pole assembly 15, and the angle α between the first plate body 1311 and the horizontal plane is greater than or equal to 2°. With this arrangement, under the effect of gravity, water automatically flows downwardly along the inclined first plate body 1311 to the lower second plate body 1312 (the second plate body 1312 is farther away from the wall), thereby ensuring that the window air conditioner 200 drains water to the outdoor side, and thus preventing water from entering the indoor side of the window air conditioner 200. For example, a may be 2°, 2.5°, or 3°, but is not limited thereto.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 23-26 and 35, the mounting pole assembly 15 includes a first mounting pole 151, and a second mounting pole 152. The first mounting pole 151 is connected to at least two support rods 13. The first mounting pole 151 is formed with a sliding channel 1512. The second mounting pole 152 is slidably arranged on the sliding channel 1512, and the second mounting pole 152 is fixed to the first mounting pole 151 after sliding to a preset position relative to the first mounting pole 151.

At least two support rods 13 are connected to the first mounting pole 151 at one end close to the window, and the second mounting pole 152 is slidably arranged in the sliding channel 1512 inside the first mounting pole 151, so that the second mounting pole 152 can be moved according to the width of the window (it is recommended that the window width be between 23 and 38 inches), to achieve effective abutting fit of the second mounting pole 152 with the left and right sides of the window, and further enhance the supporting stability of the mounting bracket 100.

Optionally, in combination with FIGS. 23 and 24, the first mounting pole 151 is integrally formed with at least two support rods 13, and as compared with the split connection, such an arrangement can be beneficial to increasing the structural strength of the support body 1, improving the overall structural consistency of the support body 1, and can eliminate the need for mutual fixing and mounting steps, thereby effectively improving the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the support body 1.

Alternatively, the first mounting pole 151 is welded to at least two support rods 13. Welding provides high connection strength and excellent sealing properties. Therefore, connecting the first mounting pole 151 to at least two support rods 13 by welding can enhance the overall structural reliability.

As shown in FIGS. 23 and 25, the support rod 13 is provided with a plurality of fifth mounting holes 134, which are spaced along the length direction thereof, the first mounting pole 151 is provided with a sixth mounting hole 1511, and any one of the plurality of fifth mounting holes 134 is connected to the sixth mounting hole 1511 by a fastener.

For example, the fastener selectively passes through one of the plurality of fifth mounting holes 134 in the support rod 13 and the sixth mounting hole 1511 in the first mounting pole 151, so that the support rod 13 and the first mounting pole 151 can be connected as a single unit. In this way, the relative position of the first mounting pole 151 and the support rod 13 in the length direction (that is, the front-rear direction) can also be adjusted according to the individual needs of the user, thereby improving the installation flexibility and versatility of the mounting bracket 100.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 23, 24 and 36, a baffle 161 is provided on the first connecting rod 16. The baffle 161 is used to prevent the window air conditioner 200 from moving, and the baffle 161 is integrally formed with the first connecting rod 16.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 23, 24, and 34, the first connecting rod 16 is provided with a baffle 161 that blocks the window air conditioner 200 from moving forward, so that the window air conditioner 200 can be limited to prevent the window air conditioner from coming out of the front side of the mounting bracket 100.

In addition, the baffle 161 is integrally formed with the first connecting rod 16. As compared with the split connection, such an arrangement can be beneficial to increasing the structural strength of the first connecting rod 16, improving the overall structural consistency of the support body 1, and can omit steps for mutual fixing and mounting, thereby effectively improving the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the support body 1.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, combined with FIGS. 28, and 33 to 35, the mounting pole assembly 15 includes a first mounting pole 151 and a second mounting pole 152. The first mounting pole 151 is connected to at least two support rods 13. The first mounting pole 151 is formed with a sliding channel 1512. The first mounting pole 151 is provided with a reinforcing rib 1513 protruding towards the inside of the sliding channel 1512. The second mounting pole 152 is slidably arranged on the sliding channel 1512, and the second mounting pole 152 is provided with a mating groove 1521 that is open at one end. The mating groove 1521 is slidably engaged with the reinforcing rib 1513, and the second mounting pole 152 is fixed to the first mounting pole 151 after sliding to a preset position relative to the first mounting pole 151.

For example, the first mounting pole 151 is fixedly connected to one end of at least two support rods 13 close to the window, the second mounting pole 152 is slidably disposed in the sliding channel 1512 extending in the left-right direction in the first mounting pole 151, and the mating groove 1521 on the second mounting pole 152 and the reinforcing rib 1513 further enhance the guiding action of the sliding fit, so that the sliding stability of the second mounting pole 152 when sliding relative to the first mounting pole 151 can be enhanced. Moreover, this arrangement can also play a fool-proof role, and avoid the problem of the first mounting pole 151 and the second mounting pole 152 being incorrectly assembled in reverse.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 35, the reinforcing rib 1513 is provided on the front side wall of the first mounting pole 151, and the reinforcing rib 1513 extends in the length direction of the first mounting pole 151. The mating groove 1521 is provided in the front side wall of the second mounting pole 152, and the mating groove 1521 extends in the length direction of the second mounting pole 152.

In the front-rear direction, the reinforcing rib 1513 protrudes rearwards at the front side wall of the first mounting pole 151, and the reinforcing rib 1513 extends along the length direction (that is, the left-right direction) of the first mounting pole 151, while the mating groove 1521 correspondingly protrudes rearwards at the front side wall of the second mounting pole 152, and extends along the length direction (that is, the left-right direction) of the second mounting pole 152, so that the positional correspondence between the reinforcing rib 1513 and the mating groove 1521 can be ensured, thereby ensuring smooth sliding fit between the reinforcing rib 1513 and the mating groove 1521.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 26, the bottom wall of the first mounting pole 151 is provided with a plurality of first fixing holes 1514. The bottom wall of the second mounting pole 152 is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes 1522, and one of the plurality of first fixing holes 1514 and its corresponding second fixing hole 1522 are selectively connected by a fastener.

For example, when the second mounting pole 152 slides to a preset position relative to the first mounting pole 151 according to the width of the window, the fastener passes through one of the plurality of first fixing holes 1514 at the bottom wall of the first mounting pole 151 and one of the plurality of second fixing holes 1522 at the bottom wall of the corresponding second mounting pole 152 can firmly fix the second mounting pole 152 at the preset position, thereby establishing a tight connection relationship with the inner walls of the left and right sides of the window frame, further improving the support reliability of the mounting bracket 100.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 26, the first mounting pole 151 is provided with a plurality of locking holes 1515, and the second mounting pole 152 is provided with a locking member 1523. The locking member 1523 selectively fits with one of the plurality of locking holes 1515 for locking.

For example, when the user pushes or pulls the second mounting pole 152 to slide to a preset position relative to the first mounting pole 151 according to the width of the window, once the user cancels the force, the locking member 1523 in the second mounting hole 231 will spring into one of the plurality of locking holes 1515 on the corresponding first mounting pole 151, so that the second mounting pole 152 can be temporarily fixed relative to the first mounting pole 151, thereby reducing the workload spent on relative sliding and fixing between the first mounting pole 151 and the second mounting pole 152, and improving the installation convenience of the mounting bracket 100.

Optionally, in conjunction with FIG. 27, the bottom wall of the second mounting pole 152 is formed with a third through hole 1524 and a fourth through hole 1525 spaced apart from each other. The strip-shaped plate of the bottom wall located between the third through hole 1524 and the fourth through hole 1525 is configured as a locking member 1523. The middle portion of the locking member 1523 protrudes downwards.

The bottom wall of the second mounting pole 152 is formed with a third through hole 1524 and a fourth through hole 1525 arranged at intervals in the front-rear direction, and the third through hole 1524 and the fourth through hole 1525 extend along the length direction of the second mounting pole 152. The strip-shaped plate located between the third through hole 1524 and the fourth through hole 1525 is configured as a locking member 1523 that locally arches downwards. This allows the locking member 1523 to undergo elastic deformation and be compressed when subjected to an external force in the left-to-right direction by the user, sliding along with the second mounting pole 152 in the direction of the applied force. When the user removes the external force, the locking member 1523 releases the compressed elastic force and springs into the corresponding locking hole 1515 located below it, thereby completing the locking and fixation of the second mounting pole 152. In addition, the external force in the left-to-right direction also refers to the external force a length direction of the second mounting pole 152.

Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 28-30, the bottom wall of the second mounting pole 152 is formed with a mating hole 1526. The locking member 1523 includes a locking portion 15231 and a plurality of connecting arms 15232. The locking portion 15231 passes through the mating hole 1526, and the locking portion 15231 is selectively engaged with one of the plurality of locking holes 1515 for locking. The plurality of connecting arms 15232 are respectively connected to the locking portion 15231, and each connecting arm 15232 is abutted against the wall of the second mounting pole 152.

In some embodiments, the connecting arms 15232 may be elastic, and the connecting arms 15232 may be made of plastic, metal or other materials.

For example, each connecting arm 15232 abuts on the inner wall of the second mounting pole 152, and the plurality of connecting arms 15232 are connected to a locking portion 15231, and the locking portion 15231 penetrates downwardly through the mating hole 1526 at the bottom wall of the second mounting pole 152.

For example, the connecting arm 15232 is capable of undergoing elastic deformation when subjected to external force exerted by a user in the left-right direction. The elastic arm 15232 can be forcibly compressed and move upwards while carrying the locking portion 15231. In this manner, it becomes difficult for the locking portion 15231 to achieve a stable locking fit with the locking hole 1515. As a result, the elastic locking portion 15231 can slide along with the second mounting pole 152 in the direction of the user's force. When the user removes the external force, the connecting arm 15232 releases its compressed elastic force and ejects the connected locking portion 15231 into the corresponding locking hole 1515 located below the locking portion 15231, thereby completing the locking and fixation of the second mounting pole 152.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 23, 26, 28, and 29, the second mounting pole 152 comprises a front plate 1527, a bottom plate 15272, a rear plate 15273, a front flange 15274, and a rear flange 15275. The front plate 1527 is provided with a mating groove 1521. The bottom plate 15272 is connected to the front plate 1527, and the bottom plate 15272 bends backwards relative to the front plate 1527. The rear plate 15273 is connected to the bottom plate 15272, and the rear plate 15273 bends upwards relative to the bottom plate 15272. The front flange 15274 is connected to the front plate 1527, and the front flange 15274 bends backwards. The rear flange 15275 is connected to the rear plate 15273, and the rear flange 15275 bends forwards. A gap is left between the front flange 15274 and the rear flange 15275.

The front plate 1527 and the rear plate 15273 are oppositely arranged, and the bottom plate 15272 is bent and connected between the front plate 1527 and the rear plate 15273. The front flange 15274 extends backwards by bending from the top edge of the front plate 1527, and the rear flange 15275 extends forwards by bending from the top edge of the rear plate 15273. This forms a three-dimensional structure in an open-ring shape, which maintains good structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness in different directions, thereby effectively enhancing the structural reliability of the second mounting pole 152. Furthermore, the gap between the front flange 15274 and the rear flange 15275 allows for the reduction of weight while ensuring the structural strength of the second mounting pole 152, thereby enhancing the overall weight reduction of the mounting bracket 100.

Optionally, as shown in FIGS. 23, 28, and 29, the front plate 1527, bottom plate 15272, rear plate 15273, front flange 15274, and rear flange 15275 are integrally formed. Compared to a split connection, this arrangement can increase the structural strength of the second mounting pole 152, improve the overall structural uniformity of the second mounting pole 152, and eliminate the need for mutual fixing and mounting steps. This effectively enhances the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the second mounting pole 152.

As shown in FIGS. 23-26, the rear plate 15273 is provided with a plurality of window frame mounting holes 152731. The plurality of window frame mounting holes 152731 are spaced apart in the length direction of the rear plate 15273. The front plate 1527 is provided with a plurality of tool access holes 152711, the plurality of tool access holes 152711 are spaced apart in the length direction of the front plate 1527. The plurality of window frame mounting holes 152731 and the plurality of tool access holes 152711 correspond one to the other. The cross-sectional area of the tool access holes 152711 is larger than that of the window frame mounting holes 152731.

The rear plate 15273 is provided with plurality of window frame mounting holes 152731 for connecting with the window frame. The plurality of window frame mounting holes 152731 are spaced apart in the length direction of the rear plate 15273. The plurality of tool access holes 152711 are correspondingly spaced apart in the length direction of the front plate 1527. This arrangement allows the user, when threading a fastener through the window frame mounting holes 152731 of the rear plate 15273, to use a tightening tool to first pass through the tool access holes 152711 from front to rear before reaching the working position of the window frame mounting holes 152731, providing a convenient installation environment for securing the second mounting pole 152 to the window frame, thereby enhancing the rationality of the layout.

Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of the tool access holes 152711 is larger than that of the window frame mounting holes 152731. This design provides additional space for tools when they pass through the tool access holes 152711, making it easier for users to observe the tool operation behind the tool access holes 152711. Additionally, it offers more maneuvering space for the tools, which can reduce installation difficulty and enhance installation efficiency.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 23, a stopper is provided at the end of the second mounting pole 152 that is away from the first mounting pole 151. The stopper is used to abut against the wall.

In the left-right direction, the stopper is provided at the end of the second mounting pole 152 away from the first mounting pole 151. This serves two purposes: firstly, it prevents the risk of the second mounting pole 152 sliding completely inside the first mounting pole 151 and becoming difficult to remove; secondly, it can be used to abut against the wall, thereby increasing the contact area between the left and right ends of the second mounting pole 152 and the wall, and subsequently enhancing the friction between the second mounting pole 152 and the wall.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 23, a shock-absorbing pad 15277 is provided at the end of the second mounting pole 152 away from the first mounting pole 151. The shock-absorbing pad 15277 is sleeved onto the end of the second mounting pole 152.

For example, in the left-right direction, the shock-absorbing pad 15277 is sleeved onto the end of the second mounting pole 152 away from the first mounting pole 151, which can prevent the risk of the second mounting pole 152 sliding completely inside the first mounting pole 151 and becoming difficult to remove, and can be used to abut against the wall, thereby increasing the contact area between the left and right ends of the second mounting pole 152 and the wall, and subsequently enhancing the friction between the second mounting pole 152 and the wall. Additionally, the shock-absorbing pad 15277 provides shock absorption and cushioning between the second mounting pole 152 and the wall, reducing the vibrational energy transferred from the second mounting pole 152 to the wall.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 7, 24 and 31, the support body 1 further comprises a limiting bracket 20. The limiting bracket 20 is disposed on the outermost support rod 13, and the limiting bracket 20 extends in a direction away from the center of the support body 1. The limiting bracket 20 is used for limiting fit with the side wall of the window air conditioner 200.

For example, at least two support rods 13 are spaced apart in the left-right direction, and the limiting brackets 20 are provided on the outermost support rods 13 in the left-right direction. The limiting brackets 20 extend outwardly in directions away from the center of the support body 1. This allows for limiting fit with the side walls on the left and right sides of the window air conditioner 200, thereby providing a limiting effect in the direction of action on the window air conditioner 200 and enhancing the assembly stability between the window air conditioner 200 and the mounting bracket 100.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the limiting bracket 20 comprises an extension plate 201 and a limiting plate 202. One end of the extension plate 201 is connected to the outermost support rod 13, and the extension plate 201 extends in a direction away from the center of the support body 1. The limiting plate 202 is connected to the other end of the extension plate 201, and the limiting plate 202 is bent upwards relative to the extension plate 201. The limiting plate 202 is used for limiting fit with the side wall of the window air conditioner 200.

In the left-right direction, one end of the extension plate 201 is connected to the outermost support rod 13, and the other end of the extension plate 201 is connected to the limiting plate 202. The limiting plate 202 changes the direction of structural extension of the extension plate 201, and the limiting plate 202 bends upwards relative to the extension plate 201. This design increases the support area of the mounting bracket 100 for the window air conditioner 200 through the extension plate 201 and provides a limiting effect in the left-right direction on the side wall of the window air conditioner 200 through the limiting plate 202.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, a third fixing hole 135 is provided on the top wall of the outermost support rod 13, and a fourth fixing hole 2011 is provided on one end of the extension plate 201. The third fixing hole 135 and the fourth fixing hole 2011 are oppositely disposed, and the third fixing hole 135 and the fourth fixing hole 2011 are connected by a fastener.

In the up-down direction, the third fixing hole 135 on the top wall of the support rod 13 and the fourth fixing hole 2011 on the extension plate 201 are aligned vertically. By passing a fastener through the third fixing hole 135 and the fourth fixing hole 2011, the support rod 13 and the extension plate can be connected as a single unit, thereby increasing their structural strength and enabling the installation and fixation of the limiting bracket 20 onto the support rod 13.

As shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the outermost support rod 13 is provided with a positioning hole 136, and one end of the extension plate 201 is provided with a positioning plate 2012. Additionally, one end of the extension plate 201 is bent relative to the positioning plate 2012, and the positioning plate 2012 extends into the positioning hole 136.

In other words, the positioning plate 2012 on one end of the extension plate 201 can extend into the positioning hole 136 on the support rod 13, which provides a pre-positioning function for the installation of the extension plate 201 and also serves as a limiting function between the extension plate 201 and the support rod 13 to a certain extent, thereby facilitating users to quickly and accurately complete the installation of the limiting bracket 20 and improving assembly convenience.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the fourth fixing holes 2011 are located on both sides of the positioning plate 2012, and a part of the plate body of the extension plate 201 located between the fourth fixing holes 2011 on both sides is bent to constitute the positioning plate 2012.

The fourth fixing holes 2011 are located on both sides of the positioning plate 2012 in the front-rear direction. This allows for the formation of connection force paths on both sides of the positioning plate 2012, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the extension plate 201 and the support rod 13.

Furthermore, the positioning plate 2012 is formed by bending a portion of the plate body of the extension plate 201 located between the fourth fixing holes 2011 on both sides. This facilitates the integral formation of the positioning plate 2012 with the extension plate 201, thereby eliminating the need to install additional parts to serve as the positioning plate 2012, further simplifying the structural components and manufacturing process of the mounting bracket 100.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the upper end of the limiting plate 202 is provided with a guiding portion 2021. The guiding portion 2021 is in guiding fit with the side wall of the window air conditioner 200. In the left-right direction, the upper end of the limiting plate 202 is provided with a guiding portion 2021 that extends outwardly. This enables the guiding function when the window air conditioner 200 is placed on the upper surface of the mounting bracket 100. That is, the side wall of the window air conditioner 200 can be initially moved downwards along the guiding portion 2021 and gradually placed onto the mounting bracket 100, thereby serving the functions of pre-positioning and installation guidance. This improves the accuracy and efficiency of placing the window air conditioner 200 onto the mounting bracket.

For example, the guiding portion 2021 is configured as a guiding plate that is inclined outwardly and upwardly. This allows for a wider pre-guiding position adjustment area before the window air conditioner 200 finally falls into the accurate installation position. This facilitates the window air conditioner 200 to gradually adjust its placement position along the pre-guidance of the guiding portion 2021 until it reaches the preset installation position, thereby improving the accuracy of the installation position and installation efficiency.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 18, the outermost support rod 13 includes a first plate body 1311, a second plate body 1312, and a third plate body 1313. The second plate body 1312 is connected between the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body. The first plate body 1311 is higher than the third plate body 1313, and the second plate body 1312 is inclined relative to the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313. The limiting bracket 20 is connected to the third plate body 1313.

Since the first plate body 1311, the second plate body 1312, and the third plate body 1313 are sequentially connected in the length direction of the support rod 13 away from the wall, and the first plate body 1311 is higher than the third plate body 1313, the second plate body 1312 is obliquely connected between the first plate body 1311 and the third plate body 1313, so that the support rod 13 is inclined to a certain extent in the length direction, to ensure that the window air conditioner 200 is slightly inclined to the outdoor side after being mounted to the mounting bracket 100, thereby facilitating the flow of condensed water to the outdoor side of the base of the air conditioner.

Preferably, since the third plate body 1313 has a larger structural extension path, and the third plate body 1313 extends horizontally, the connecting of the limiting bracket 20 to the third plate body 1313 allows the limiting bracket 20 to be roughly positioned in the middle of the length direction of the support rod 13. This provides a better limiting effect on the side wall of the window air conditioner 200.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, the limiting bracket 20 is configured as a one-piece molded metal bracket. Compared to a split connection, this arrangement can help increase the structural strength of the limiting bracket 20, improve the overall structural uniformity of the limiting bracket 20, and eliminate the installation step of securing separate components together. This effectively enhances the structural reliability and assembly efficiency of the limiting bracket 20.

Furthermore, metal is characterized by high structural strength, good fire resistance, and high shape stability. Therefore, using a metal bracket for the limiting bracket 20 can improve the structural reliability and practicality of the limiting bracket 20.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, the mounting bracket 100 further comprises a level gauge, which is disposed on the top wall of the support rod 13. The level gauge is used to measure the degree of inclination of a surface in the horizontal direction. By placing the level gauge on the top wall of the support rod 13, users can easily ensure the levelness of each support rod 13 during installation of the support rod 13 by observing the level gauge. This guarantees the installation quality of the support rods 13.

Referring to FIGS. 37 and 40-41, according to some optional embodiments of the present application, the mounting pole assembly 15 includes a first mounting pole 151 and a second mounting pole 152. The first mounting pole 151 is connected to at least two support rods 13, and the first mounting pole 151 is equipped with a sliding channel 1512. Additionally, a plurality of locking holes 1515 are disposed on the side wall of the sliding channel 1512 of the first mounting pole 151. The second mounting pole 152 is slidably disposed within the sliding channel 1512, and a locking member 1523 is provided inside the second mounting pole 152. The locking member 1523 is selectively in locking fit with one of the plurality of locking holes 1515. For example, the locking member 1523 can be a plastic locking member 1523 made of POM (Polyoxymethylene) plastic particles, for example, a plastic damping locking member. Alternatively, the locking member 1523 may be a metal component made of stainless steel spring steel sheet, for example, a metal elastic locking member. The material and type of the locking member are not limited to these examples. In some embodiments, an elastic locking member comprises the plastic damping locking member and metal elastic locking member.

The second mounting pole 152 can slide relative to the sliding channel 1512. When the second mounting pole 152 slides to a preset position on the first mounting pole 151, the external force on the locking member 1523 is removed. Under the elastic force of the locking member 1523, the locking member 1523 springs towards the inner wall of the sliding channel 1512 and engages with one of the locking holes 1515 at the preset position, fixing the second mounting pole 152 relative to the first mounting pole.

For example, when the user pushes or pulls the second mounting pole 152 to slide relative to the first mounting pole 151 to a preset position based on the width of the left and right sides of the window to be matched, the user then releases the force. At this point, the locking member 1523 inside the second mounting pole 152 will snap into one of the plurality of locking holes 1515 on the first mounting pole 151 that corresponds to the current position. This completes the fixation of the second mounting pole 152 relative to the first mounting pole 151, thereby reducing the amount of work required for relative sliding and fixation between the first mounting pole 151 and the second mounting pole 152, and thus enhancing the installation convenience of the mounting bracket 100.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 41 to 43, the side wall of the second mounting pole 152 is formed with a mating hole 1526. The locking member 1523 includes a locking portion 15231 and a plurality of connecting arms 15232. The locking portion 15231 extends through the mating hole 1526, and the locking portion 15231 selectively engages with one of the plurality of locking holes 1515. The plurality of connecting arms 15232 are respectively connected to the locking portion 15231, and the connecting arms 15232 provides an elastic locking force to the locking portion 15231 through their own elastic deformation.

As shown in FIG. 44, in order for the locking portion 15231 of the second mounting pole 152 to lock into the locking hole 1515 of the first mounting pole 151, the side wall of the second mounting pole 152 is formed with a mating hole 1526 that accommodates the locking portion 15231 to pass through a side arm 15235 of the second mounting pole 152. This allows the locking portion 15231 of the second mounting pole 152, under the elastic force of the connecting arms 15232, to selectively establish a locking relationship with the locking hole 1515 through the mating hole 1526, thereby accommodating both locking fixation and mutual sliding between the first mounting pole 151 and the second mounting pole 152.

For example, when the user pushes or pulls the second mounting pole 152 to slide relative to the first mounting pole 151 to a preset position based on the window width, and then releases the force, the connecting arms 15232 of the second mounting pole 152 release the elastic force caused by their elastic deformation, causing the locking portion 15231 to pass through the mating hole 1526 and establish a locking fit with one of the plurality of locking holes 1515 on the first mounting pole 151, thereby completing the fixation of the second mounting pole 152 relative to the first mounting pole 151. Alternatively, when the user adjusts the relative position between the second mounting pole 152 and the first mounting pole 151, the user applies a force to the second mounting pole 152, which overcomes the elastic force of the connecting arms 15232 themselves, allowing the locking portion 15231 to disengage from the locking fit with the first mounting pole 151, thereby enabling a change in the relative position between the first mounting pole 151 and the second mounting pole 152.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 42 and 43, the locking member 1523 further includes a seating 15233, and an accommodation groove 152331 is formed in the seating 15233. The locking portion 15231 and the plurality of connecting arms 15232 are disposed within the accommodation groove 152331, and the locking portion 15231 and the plurality of connecting arms 15232 are connected to the side walls of the accommodation groove 152331.

The seating 15233 primarily serves to structurally reinforce, mount and fix, and protect the locking portion 15231 and the plurality of connecting arms. The accommodation groove 152331 within the seating 15233 provides an accommodation space for the locking portion 15231 and the plurality of connecting arms, and also offers protection around the periphery of the locking portion 15231 and the connecting arms. Moreover, the locking portion 15231 and the plurality of connecting arms 15232 are connected to the side walls of the accommodation groove 152331, which allows the locking portion 15231 and the plurality of connecting arms 15232 to be integrated with the accommodation groove 152331 as a single unit, thereby improving the overall structural durability of the locking member 1523.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 44-46, the locking member 1523 further includes a plurality of base arms 15234, and each of base arms 15234 is connected to at least one connecting arm 15232. The base arms 15234 abut against the side wall of the second mounting pole 152.

For example, the connecting arms 15232 are connected to the base arms 15234, and the base arms 15234 abut against the side wall of the second mounting pole 152. This allows the base arms 15234 to form an abutting relationship with the inner side wall of the second mounting pole 152 in the up-down direction, thereby providing a fixed support point for the connecting arms 15232 at the end away from the locking hole 1515. This enables the connecting arms 15232 to form a readily elastically deformable active end at the end close to the locking portion 15231, with the connection point between the base arms 15234 and the side arm 15235 of the second mounting pole 152 serving as the fulcrum. This enhances the locking stability and reliability of the locking member 1523.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIG. 44, the locking member 1523 further includes a side arm 15235, and the side arm 15235 is connected to at least one side of the base arm 15234. The side arm and the base arm 15234 abut against different side walls of the second mounting pole 152, respectively. This allows the side arm 15235 to enhance the fixed support role of the base arm 15234 within the second mounting pole 152. In other words, the side arm 15235 can increase the force transmission path and force contact area between the base arm 15234 and the inner side wall of the second mounting pole 152, thereby effectively improving the support stability of the base arm 15234 within the second mounting pole 152.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIG. 44, the locking member 1523 further includes a support arm 15236, and one end of the support arm 15236 is connected to the base arm 15234. Additionally, the end of the support arm 15236 is bent relative to the base arm 15234. The support arm 15236 and the base arm 15234 abut against opposite side walls of the second mounting pole 152, respectively.

One end of the support arm 15236 abuts against a side wall of the second mounting pole 152 (e.g., an upper side wall), while the other end of the support arm 15236 is bent and connected to the base arm 15234. The base arm 15234 abuts against another side wall of the second mounting pole 152 (e.g., a lower side wall). Such an arrangement allows the support arm 15236 to increase the support force of the base arm 15234 in the opposite direction, thereby enhancing the installation stability of the locking member 1523 within the second mounting pole 152.

In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIG. 45, the locking member 1523 further includes a bottom arm 15237, and the bottom arm 15237 is connected to the bottom of the base arm 15234. Additionally, the bottom arm 15237 is bent relative to the base arm 15234, and the bottom arm 15237 is in surface contact with a side wall of the second mounting pole 152. The bottom wall is bent and connected to the bottom of the base arm 15234, which changes the structural extension direction of the base arm 15234. Additionally, the bottom arm 15237 is in surface contact with the side wall (such as the lower side wall) of the second mounting pole 152. This increases the force-bearing contact area between the locking member 1523 and the side wall of the second mounting pole 152 in the up-down direction. Consequently, the support force of the locking member 1523 at the ends away from the locking hole 1515 is enhanced, thereby improving the stability of support between the locking member 1523 and the inner side wall of the second mounting pole 152. This prevents the risk of the locking member 1523 easily shaking or sliding within the second mounting pole 152.

As shown in FIG. 45, the locking member 1523 may not necessarily include the support arm 15236 or the side arm 15235. The connecting arm 15232 connects the locking portion 15231 and the base arm 15234, and the base arm 15234 is connected to the bottom arm 15237. The bottom arm 15237 abuts against one of the side walls of the second mounting pole 152, while the connection point between the connecting arm 15232 and the base arm 15234 abuts against another side wall of the second mounting pole 152.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 45, at least two connecting arms 15232 on the same side can be connected to the same base arm 15234.

In some optional embodiments, at least two connecting arms 15232 on the same side can be connected to different base arms 15234. As shown in FIG. 46, the connecting arm 15232 includes a first arm 152321 and a second arm 152322. The first arm 152321 is connected to the locking portion 15231, and the first arm 152321 is bent relative to the locking portion 15231. The second arm 152322 is connected to the first arm 152321, and the second arm 152322 is bent relative to the first arm 152321. The connection point between the first arm 152321 and the second arm 152322, and the connection point between the second arm 152322 and the base arm 15234, abut against opposite side walls, such as the upper and lower side walls, of the second mounting pole 152.

The locking portion 15231, the first arm 152321, and the second arm 152322 are sequentially connected in a direction away from the locking portion 15231. The first arm 152321 is bent relative to the locking portion 15231, and the second arm 152322 is bent relative to the first arm 152321. This allows the connecting arm 15232 to form two bending sections, which can concentrate the stress generated by elastic deformation, thereby effectively increasing the locking force provided by the connecting arm 15232 to the locking portion 15231 and enhancing the locking stability and reliability of the locking member 1523.

In some optional embodiments, the connecting arm 15232 is provided with a hole extending along the extension direction of the connecting arm 15232. This can appropriately reduce the weight of the connecting arm 15232 while ensuring that the connecting arm 15232 provides sufficient locking force to securely lock the locking portion 15231 with the locking hole 1515, thereby improving the weight lightening of the locking member 1523.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 47-50, the support body 1 includes a mounting pole assembly 15, at least two support rods 13, a first connecting rod 16, and a stop bracket 2001. The mounting pole assembly 15 is mounted to a window sill or window frame. The at least two support rods 13 are spaced apart in the left-right direction, and one end of each of the at least two support rods 13 is connected to the mounting pole assembly 15. The at least two support rods 13 are used to support the window air conditioner 200. The support legs 2 are at least two in number and are connected to the support rods 13 in a one-to-one correspondence. The other end of each of the at least two support rods 13 is connected to the first connecting rod 16. The stop bracket 2001 is disposed on the first connecting rod 16, and the stop bracket 2001 is used to stop the window air conditioner 200.

For example, the mounting pole assembly 15 is used to be installed on a window sill or window frame, and at least two support rods 13 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. One end of each of at least two support rods 13 is connected to the mounting pole assembly 15, and at least two support rods 13 are used to support the window air conditioner 200. The support legs 2 are at least two in number and connected in one-to-one correspondence with the support rods 13, and the other end of each of at least two support rods 13 is connected to the first connecting rod 16.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 47-49, at least two support rods 13 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. The mounting pole assembly 15 is connected to one ends of the at least two support rods 13 close to the wall. The first connecting rod 16 is connected to the other ends of the at least two support rods 13 away from the wall. In this way, the support body 1 can be constructed as a frame-like stabilizing force structure.

At least two support rods 13 are used to support the window air conditioner 200 outside the window, and the mounting pole assembly 15 is used to be mounted to the window sill or window frame, so that the support body 1 can establish a connection relationship with the window sill or window frame, and the first connecting rod 16 is connected at the other ends of at least two support rods 13, which can strengthen the overall structural strength of the support body 1.

Furthermore, in the front-rear direction, the stop bracket 2001 is disposed on the first connecting rod 16 on the side away from the window. The stop bracket 2001 can be used to provide a stop blocking effect on the front side of the window air conditioner 200 away from the window, preventing the window air conditioner from sliding out.

In some embodiments, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 47-50, the first connecting rod 16 forms a via 162. The stop bracket 2001 includes a rotating seat 2002 and a stopping portion 2003. The rotating seat 2002 is rotatably disposed below the first connecting rod 16. The stopping portion 2003 is connected to the part of the rotating seat 2002 that passes through the via 162 and is located above the first connecting rod 16. The rotating seat 2002 has a first position and a second position. When the rotating seat 2002 is in the first position, the stopping portion 2003 is laid flat above the first connecting rod 16. When the rotating seat 2002 is in the second position, the stopping portion 2003 is vertically disposed above the first connecting rod 16. The rotating seat 2002 is in limiting fit with the first connecting rod 16.

The first connecting rod 16 is formed with a via 162 that extends vertically. The rotating seat 2002 is connected to the stopping portion 2003, and the rotating seat 2002 can rotate around a rotational axis extending in the left-right direction, simultaneously driving the stopping portion 2003 to rotate synchronously.

Alternatively, when the rotating seat 2002 is rotated to the first position, the stopping portion 2003 is laid flat above the first connecting rod 16, where the stop bracket 2001 is in a folded state (the window air conditioner 200 is not mounted and secured at the present time), which is advantageous for saving storage space and thus improving space utilization during transportation or storage. When the rotating seat 2002 is rotated to the second position, the stopping portion 2003 is vertically disposed above the first connecting rod 16, where the stop bracket 2001 is in an open state (the mounting and fixing the window air conditioner 200 by the mounting bracket 100 can be in progress at the present time). The stopping portion can then provide a stopping and blocking effect on the side of the window air conditioner 200 away from the window, thereby preventing the window air conditioner 200 from sliding out and ensuring the stability of installation of the window air conditioner 200.

Furthermore, when the rotating seat 2002 is in the second position, the rotating seat 2002 is in limiting fit with the first connecting rod 16. This restricts the rotation angle of the rotating seat 2002, thereby ensuring the stability of the stopping position of the stopping portion 2003.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, the first connecting rod 16 is provided with a first rotating portion 163 below the via 162. The rotating seat 2002 includes a seat body 20021 and a second rotating portion 20022. The seat body 20021 is connected to the stopping portion 2003, and the second rotating portion 20022 is connected to the seat body 20021. The first rotating portion 163 and the second rotating portion 20022 are rotatably engaged.

In some embodiments, the first rotating portion 163 of the first connecting rod 16 is rotatably connected to the second rotating portion 20022 on the rotating seat 2002. This allows the stop bracket 2001 to also be selectively rotated relative to the first connecting rod 16 on the premise that the stop bracket 2001 is connected to the first connecting rod 16. As a result, the stop bracket 2001 can be rotated to a preset position according to different application scenarios, thereby enhancing the flexibility and practicality of the stop bracket 2001.

For example, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, the seat body 20021 includes a first seat plate 200211 and a second seat plate 200212. The stopping portion 2003 and the second rotating portion 20022 are respectively connected to the first seat plate 200211. The second seat plate 200212 is in bent connection to the first seat plate 200211. When the rotating seat 2002 is in the second position, the second seat plate 200212 is in limiting fit with the first connecting rod 16.

The first seat plate 200211 is in bent connection to the second seat plate 200212, which allows the extension direction of the second seat plate 200212 to be changed. Thus, the first seat plate 200211 and the second seat plate 200212 can have structural extension directions at different angles during the rotation of the second rotating portion 20022. The second rotating portion 20022 is in bent connection to one of both sides of the first seat plate 200211 in the left-right direction, which facilitates the rotation of the second rotating portion 20022 around a rotational axis extending in the left-right direction. When the rotating seat 2002 rotates to the second position with the second rotating portion 20022, the second seat plate 200212 forms a limiting fit relationship with the first connecting rod 16. Therefore, the rotating seat 2002 cannot continue to rotate along its original rotation trend. Consequently, the stopping portion 2003 connected to the first seat body 20021 can be placed vertically above the first connecting rod 16, allowing the stopping portion 2003 connected to the first seat body 20021 to fulfill its stopping and blocking role.

In some embodiments, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, the first rotating portion 163 is configured as a first rotating plate, and the first rotating plate is distributed on both ends of the via 162. The second rotating portion 20022 is configured as a second rotating plate, and the second rotating plate is distributed on both ends of the first seat plate 200211. The first rotating plate corresponds to the second rotating plate, and the first rotating plate and the second rotating plate are rotatably engaged through a rotating shaft.

In the left-right direction, the first rotating portion 163 and the second rotating portion 20022 are respectively distributed on both ends of the via 162 and on both ends of the first seat plate 200211. The first rotating plate and the second rotating plate are rotatably engaged around the same rotating shaft, which facilitates smooth relative rotation between the stop bracket 2001 and the first connecting rod 16.

For example, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, the front edge of the first connecting rod 16 is provided with a downwardly bent limiting flap 164, and the second seat plate 200212 is provided with a protruding limiting arm 2002123. When the rotating seat 2002 is in the second position, the front edge of the limiting arm 2002123 is limited by the limiting flap 164.

The front edge of the first connecting rod 16 is provided with the limiting flap 164 facing downward. When the rotating seat 2002 rotates to the second position, the limiting arm 2002123 on the second seat plate 200212 is obstructed by the limiting flap 164. This limits the rotation angle of the rotating seat 2002, ensuring positional stability of the stopping portion 2003 in the second position and thus ensuring the limiting function of the stop bracket 2001. Furthermore, the limiting arm 2002123 can also enhance the spatial modality and weight of the second seat plate 200212, thereby improving the structural strength and bending and torsional stiffness of the second seat plate 200212.

In some embodiments, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, a bent plate 20031 is connected between the stopping portion 2003 and the seat body 20021. When the rotating seat 2002 is in the first position, the bent plate 20031 passes through the via 162. The bent plate 20031 is in bent connection with between the stopping portion 2003 and the seat body 20021, which increases the distance between the stopping portion 2003 and the seat body 20021. This provides necessary space for the stopping portion 2003 to smoothly pass through the via 162 and lie flat on the upper surface of the first connecting rod 16, thereby enhancing the rationality of this arrangement. For example, when the rotating seat 2002 is in the first position, the bent plate 20031 passes through the via 162, allowing the stopping portion 2003 to utilize the extra space created by the bent plate 20031 to rest stably on the upper surface of the first connecting rod 16.

In some embodiments, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, there are a plurality of stopping portions 2003, and the plurality of stopping portions 2003 are spaced apart on the seat body 20021. That is, the plurality of stopping portions 2003 are spaced apart in the left-right direction, which increases the number of stopping portions 2003 and thus enhances the stopping area and force transmission path of the stopping portions 2003 against the window air conditioner 200, thereby improving the reliability of stopping the window air conditioner 200.

In some embodiments, as shown in conjunction with FIGS. 49 and 50, the first connecting rod 16 is provided with a connecting rib 165 within the via 162, and the connecting rib 165 is located between adjacent stopping portions 2003. The connecting rib 165 is provided within the via 162, which can strengthen the structural strength near the via 162 without interfering with the passage of the stopping portions 2003 through the via 162, thereby enhancing the structural reliability of the first connecting rod 16.

According to some optional embodiments of the present application, since the weight of the stopping portion 2003 is lower than that of the rotating seat 2002, the stop bracket 2001 will automatically rotate to the second position under the gravitational force of the rotating seat 2002. At this point, the stopping portion 2003 is vertically positioned above the first connecting rod 16, and the rotating seat 2002 is in limiting fit with the first connecting rod 16, thereby serving as a stopping mechanism.
