Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO THE RELATED APPLICATIONS This application is based upon and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202422704633.2, filed on Nov. 6, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to the field of air conditioner brackets, specifically, to a modular air conditioner mounting bracket. BACKGROUND An air conditioner mounting bracket, also known as an air conditioner support bracket, is a key component used to support and secure air conditioning equipment and plays a vital role in an air conditioning system. It ensures the stability and safety of the air-conditioner outdoor unit and meanwhile impacts the air conditioner's service life. Structurally, there are diverse types of air conditioner brackets. Fixed bracket is typically composed of angle bracket and support bracket, with an L- or T-shaped structure, and used for fixation to a wall or ground to bear the weight of the air-conditioner outdoor unit. Cantilever bracket is used to suspend the air-conditioner outdoor unit from a wall through an arm structure and suitable for applications requiring a suspended installation. Furthermore, mobile bracket, which is equipped with rollers or rails, allows for easy movement of air conditioner equipment, meeting the requirement of flexible adjustment of air conditioner position. For example, the invention patent, with the application number CN202010516461.X, entitled “Air Conditioner Mounting Bracket”, discloses its use process as follows: before placing the air-conditioner outdoor unit on the auxiliary rod, sliding two anti-slip rods so that the distance between the two anti-slip rods corresponds to the width of the air-conditioner outdoor unit, and tightening positioning bolts to prevent the anti-slip rods from sliding, after placing the air-conditioner outdoor unit between the two anti-slip rods, connecting the air-conditioner outdoor unit to the auxiliary rod by bolts while the air-conditioner outdoor unit is not easily slidable, making it easier for people to connect the air-conditioner outdoor unit to the auxiliary rod.
