ABSTRACT:
An appliance stabilizing device which is useful in securing an appliance in position against a supporting structure surface. The device includes a plurality of brackets which are selectively positionable on an appliance, with a plurality of elongated members, each pivotally attached to a bracket. Each elongated member has at least one aperture spaced a distance along the length of the elongated member from the pivotal point with the bracket. The elongated member is attached to a support surface, frequently a bottom plate or sole pate of the wall. The bracket includes apertures spaced from each other in a generally triangular configuration or a configuration of equivalent strength. The elongated member is typically pivotally attached at the apex of a generally triangular configuration of apertures. The device is self adjusting during attachment of the appliance to a supporting structure. An advantageous embodiment includes a quick-release mechanism at the pivotal attachment between the brackets and the first ends of the elongate members.
