Abstract
A mounting boot for mounting a vertical hermetic compressor to a horizontal base, includes a resilient cup-shaped member to receive the bottom end of the compressor housing. A cylindrical inner wall surface of the cup-shaped member frictionally engages the sidewall of the compressor. The bottom end of the compressor housing comprises a plate member having a radially extending flange portion resiliently enveloped by the inner wall surface of the cup-shaped member. The bottom end of the compressor housing is spaced from the bottom wall of the mounting boot, thereby defining an enclosed muffling chamber to suppress noises radiated from the compressor bottom end. The mounting boot is formed with radially extending mounting feet, and passages through which compressor inlet and outlet tubes may extend.
