1. A sensor bracket structure, adapted to mount an external sensor to a moving body via a bracket, the sensor bracket structure comprising:
the bracket, comprises a fixing surface, a main load receiving surface connected to the fixing surface, and at least two subordinate load receiving surfaces connected to the main load receiving surface, such that the fixing surface and the main loading receiving surface are sandwiched between the at least two subordinate load receiving surfaces,
wherein an upper side of the external sensor is covered by the main load receiving surface in a vertical direction of the moving body, and an outer side of the external sensor is covered by the at least two subordinate load receiving surfaces in a longitudinal direction of the moving body,
wherein in the bracket, at least a portion of the fixing surface is surrounded by the main load receiving surface and the at least two subordinate load receiving surfaces, so that the external sensor is encompassed by the main load receiving surface and the at least two subordinate load receiving surfaces when the external sensor is fixed to the fixing surface,
wherein a plurality of load receiving surfaces among the main load receiving surface and the at least two subordinate load receiving surfaces are provided on at least one of a side and another side of the fixing surface.
