         14 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 13 , wherein:
 the first hinge base includes a plane section;   the first connection plate includes a connection member coplanar with the extension member; and   the connection member and the extension member are attached to a bottom of the plane section, the connection member being fixedly connected to the plane section.   
     
     
         15 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 14 , wherein:
 the first connection plate includes a plate body; and   the connection member is constructed as a protrusion structure located at a top of the plate body.   
     
     
         16 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 14 , wherein the pivot component is fixedly connected to the connection member through a threaded fastener. 
     
     
         17 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 11 , wherein:
 the first connection plate includes a connection member, the pivot component being supported at a top of the connection member; and   the connection member is provided with an engagement structure, an end of the pivot component close to the indoor unit component being engaged with the engagement structure to prevent the pivot component from being vertically separated from the first connection plate.   
     
     
         18 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 17 , wherein:
 the engagement structure is constructed as an elastic snap and forms an engagement opening opened towards the outdoor unit component; and   an end of the pivot component close to the indoor unit component is engaged in the engagement opening.   
     
     
         19 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 17 , wherein:
 the first connection plate includes a plate body; and   the connection member is constructed as a protrusion structure located at a top of the plate body.   
     
     
         20 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 17 , wherein the pivot component is fixedly connected to the connection member through a threaded fastener. 
     
     
         21 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 11 , wherein:
 the outdoor unit component includes a bent member at a top of a back plate of the outdoor unit component, the bent member extending to a position above the second connection plate; and   when the window air conditioner is in the use state, the bent member is sandwiched between the extension member and the second connection plate, and a top cover of the outdoor unit component covers over the second connection plate and the pivot component.   
     
     
         22 . The window air conditioner according to  claim 11 , wherein:
 the connector includes a bottom plate and a top plate connected to an upper part of the bottom plate;   an accommodation cavity is formed between the bottom plate and the top plate;   at least one of a line or a pipeline for connecting the indoor unit component with the outdoor unit component passes through the accommodation cavity; and   the bottom plate serves as the first connection plate.
