Abstract:
1. A bracket for attaching a heat exchanger to a supporting member, the bracket comprising: a vibration proof member which is formed from an elastic body and through which the heat exchanger is attached to the supporting member; a first bracket member that is fixed to the supporting member; and a second bracket member that is joined to a projection, which is formed to project from the heat exchanger, through the vibration proof member, the second bracket member is attached to the first bracket member, wherein the second bracket member includes: a joining part into which the projection is inserted so that the joining part is joined to the projection with the vibration proof member intervening therebetween, a direction of insertion of the projection into the joining part defining a joining direction; and an attaching part that is inserted in the first bracket member from a direction that intersects with the joining direction in which the joining part is joined to the projection, so that the attaching part is attached to the first bracket member at an arbitrary position of the first bracket member in the joining direction; wherein the vibration proof member is attached to the second bracket member to be integrated with the second bracket member and to hold the heat exchanger; and the bracket further comprises: a fastening member configured to fasten together the first bracket member and the second bracket member, the fastening member extending through the first and second bracket members in a direction perpendicular to the joining direction.
