Securing an air conditioning unit to a building by applying force to an interior and an exterior surface of the building

摘要

A system for securing an air conditioning unit to a building without the need for any alteration and/or damage to the building itself. The system includes a cross bar, an air conditioning unit support, and a strut. The arrangement of the components results in the cross bar applying an outward force to an interior surface of the building and strut applying an inward force to an exterior surface of the building in response to the downward force exerted on the air conditioning unit support. The sum of the forces applied on the surfaces of the building are sufficient to secure the air conditioning unit to the building.

主权项

1. A system that secures an air conditioning unit at a fixed position, said system comprising:
an adjustable first member that, when extended, extends beyond the width of a window of a building and abuts an interior surface of said building on either side of said window; a single support member comprising an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve, where an effective length of said single support member is adjustable by sliding said outer sleeve along the length of said inner sleeve; said single support member, when coupled to said first member, extends from the center of said first member at the center of said window, said single support member supporting said air conditioning unit; and a third member, when coupled to said single support member, extends between said single support member and an exterior surface of said building.
