Abstract
A stability mechanism that can reduce deformation of a frame of a compressor. The stability mechanism can have a support member with an x-shaped configuration having a pair of peripheral members and diagonal components disposed therebetween. In use, the support member can work in combination with elongated 'tie bars' to prevent deformation of the frame that may result from installation and/or use of the compressor.
