ABSTRACT:
A mounting system for a compressor of a refrigerator includes a floating frame rigidly secured to a compressor housing in which the compressor is resiliently mounted, the floating frame being resiliently secured to the frame of the refrigerator. The floating frame includes a pair of support rails to which the refrigerator's condenser is rigidly secured as well as the compressor housing. In one embodiment the floating frame also includes a cross rail to which a first end of each of the support rails is rigidly secured. By increasing the effective mass of the compressor housing to include the condenser and floating frame the amount of vibration transmitted from the compressor to the refrigerator frame is reduced as well as the noise generated thereby.
