Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air conditioner installation frame used for mounting an outdoor unit of a separate type air conditioner (hereinafter, simply referred to as an air conditioner) on a roof, a wall surface or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An air conditioner installation frame used for installing an air conditioner has a sloping roof type,
It is divided into wall type and flat type. These air conditioner installation mounts have different assembly shapes, but the components are common to many mounts. The basic structure of a conventional air conditioner installation stand will be described with reference to FIG. 6 for a sloping roof type.

The sloping roof type air conditioner installation frame shown in FIG. 6 has two front and rear first base members 1 and 1 fixed laterally on a sloping roof surface with a predetermined interval, and a first base member. Two left and right second base members 2 and 2 vertically spanned between 1, 1 and two front and rear third base members 3 that are laterally attached to cross over the second base members 2 and 2. , 3 and.

Each of the second base members 2 and 2 is an inverted L-shaped member in which a horizontal member 2a and a vertical member 2b are combined, and the inclination of the roof surface, that is, the height difference between the first base members 1 and 1. According to the above, the connecting position of the horizontal member 2a and the vertical member 2b is adjusted so that the horizontal level of the horizontal member 2a is maintained. Further, since it is necessary to change the angle of the first base members 1, 1 with respect to the horizontal member 2a and the vertical member 2b according to the inclination angle of the roof surface, the bracket portion 1a is provided at two locations in the longitudinal direction of the first base member 1. , 1a are integrally formed, and the end portions of the second base members 2 and 2 are connected to these by a through bolt 4 parallel to the first base member 1.

The third base members 3 and 3 are horizontal members 2a and 2 of the second base members 2 and 2 for supporting the air conditioner.
It is hung between a. The reason why the third base members 3 and 3 are used is to cope with the difference in the width of various air conditioners, more strictly, the difference in the intervals between the legs of the air conditioner. That is, since the connecting portion between the first base member 1, 1 and the second base member 2, 2 has a rotatable structure using the bracket portions 1a, 1a, the second base member 2, 2 is
Therefore, it is necessary to use the third base members 3 and 3 to absorb the difference in the distance between the mounting feet due to the difference in the model of the air conditioner.

[0006]

Such a sloping roof type air conditioner installation frame has two first base members 1, 1 and third base members 3, 3 as lateral base members.
A pair is needed. The reason is that, as described above, the connecting portion between the first base members 1 and 1 and the second base members 2 and 2 has a rotatable structure, and it becomes impossible to adjust the distance between the second base members 2 and 2. However, compared with, for example, a wall-type air conditioner installation frame in which the distance between the second base members 2 and 2 can be adjusted, an increase in the number of parts due to the use of the third base members 3 and 3 is a problem. Is inevitable.

By the way, in the wall-mounted air conditioner installation stand, since the intersecting angle between the first base members 1 and 1 and the second base members 2 and 2 is basically a right angle, a penetration parallel to the first base member 1 is performed. The angle-adjustable type connecting structure using the bolts 4 is unnecessary, and the distance between the second base members 2 and 2 can be adjusted by combining the bolts and sliders that are perpendicular to the first base member 1 (FIG. 4). And FIG. 5).

The present invention has been devised in view of the above circumstances, and the distance between the second base members is large even though the connecting portion between the first base member and the second base member has a rotatable structure. It is an object of the present invention to provide an air conditioner mounting stand that can be adjusted and whose adjustment operation is easy.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above object, an air conditioner installation frame according to the present invention is provided with a first base member laterally fixed to a mounting surface for mounting an air conditioner and for supporting the air conditioner. , A second base member that is vertically mounted so as to intersect the first base member, and that is provided so as to be movable in the lateral direction using the first base member as a guide, and the end portion of the second base member is substantially the same as the first base member. And a slider connected by parallel bolts, the slider comprising a combination of two pivoting members that are foldably connected at a central portion, and the slider is bent by the tightening by the bolts to form a first base member. It is configured to be fixed.

In the air conditioner installation stand according to the present invention, the space between the second base member is adjusted and the structure is rotated by the bending type slider which is operated by using the bolt connecting the first base member and the second base member. Are realized at the same time.

As the slider, it is preferable to use a bracket constituted by connecting two L-shaped rotary members symmetrically arranged in abutting relationship with each other so as to be bendable because the bracket can be easily connected to the second base member.

The connecting structure of the two rotating members may be a hinge structure using a connecting pin, and the structure is not particularly limited, but the two rotating members can be bent by engaging at the abutting portion. The engagement type to connect is
The number of parts is small, which is preferable.

The air conditioner installation stand according to the present invention is not particularly limited in its type, but is particularly suitable for a sloping roof type in which the third base member can be omitted.
