         8 . The mounting support according to  claim 7 , wherein:
 at least one first guide groove extending in a longitudinal direction is defined by the inner mounting member;   the inner stop member comprises a first guide rail extending in the longitudinal direction, the first guide rail being inserted into and engaged with the at least one first guide groove to guide the inner stop member to slide relative to the inner mounting member in the inner-outer direction; and   each of the at least one first guide grooves is arranged in a transverse direction and engaged with the first guide rail.   
     
     
         9 . The mounting support according to  claim 8 , wherein:
 the first guide groove has a first elongate hole at a wall of the first guide groove, the first elongate hole extending in the longitudinal direction; and   the first guide rail comprises a first limit member slidable along the first elongate hole.   
     
     
         10 . The mounting support according to  claim 7 , wherein:
 the inner stop member has a plurality of first locking holes arranged at intervals in a longitudinal direction; and   the inner mounting member has a first positioning hole, the first positioning hole being alignable with any of the plurality of first locking holes and lockable with the first locking hole by a first locking member.   
     
     
         11 . The mounting support according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an outer stop member slidingly engaged with the outer mounting member in an inner-outer direction, the outer stop member having an outer stop portion adapted to stop against an outer wall in response to the outer stop member moving to an inner limit position, to prevent the mounting support from moving towards an indoor side.   
     
     
         12 . The mounting support according to  claim 11 , wherein:
