Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a refrigeration type motor compressor assembly in which an integrated motor compressor unit is resiliently mounted in a sealed casing. A skeleton-like frame facilitates integrating the motor and compressor with a minimum amount of structural material. This frame includes a shaft bearing member and a cylinder member for the compressor function, these two members being joined by a beam member which is attached to the bearing member and extends to the cylinder member. The beam member has support posts depending therefrom which rest on the upper surface of the stator laminations.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
137 words
A motor compressor assembly for refrigerators, comprising a casing, a motor including a rotor and a stator resiliently mounted in said casing for rotation about a vertical axis, said stator including a stack of laminations, a vertically extending motor shaft having a crank at the upper end thereof spaced from said rotor, a bearing member for said shaft disposed between said crank and said rotor, a beam member attached to and extending laterally from said bearing member, a cylinder member at the radially outer end of said beam member, a piston for said cylinder member, a connecting rod connecting said piston to said crank, support means extending downwardly from said radially outer end of said beam member and engaging the top of said stack of laminations, and fastening means for attaching said support means to said laminations.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
137 words
A motor compressor assembly for refrigerators, comprising a casing, a motor including a rotor and a stator resiliently mounted in said casing for rotation about a vertical axis, said stator including a stack of laminations, a vertically extending motor shaft having a crank at the upper end thereof spaced from said rotor, a bearing member for said shaft disposed between said crank and said rotor, a beam member attached to and extending laterally from said bearing member, a cylinder member at the radially outer end of said beam member, a piston for said cylinder member, a connecting rod connecting said piston to said crank, support means extending downwardly from said radially outer end of said beam member and engaging the top of said stack of laminations, and fastening means for attaching said support means to said laminations.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A motor compressor according to claim 1 including at least one sound damping chamber at the radially outer end of said beam member adjacent said cylinder member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
A motor compressor according to claim 1 including two sound damping chambers at the radially outer end of said beam member on opposite sides of said cylinder member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
36 words
