| (57) A support, fixing and damping device for a compressor (2) in a refrigeration appliance
having a refrigerator circuit containing said compressor (2), this latter having flat
lateral projecting portions (47) provided with at least one through hole (48) and
being positioned in a compartment of a cabinet of said refrigeration appliance, in
said compartment a bracket (6) being present to which said lateral portions (47) of
said compressor are fixed, retention members (13) being provided to cooperate with
said lateral portions (47) in order to fix them to the support (6); each retention
member (13) presents a flat part (21) on which at least one elastically projecting
element (29) is present and is movable relative to a corresponding seat (30) provided
in said flat part (21), this latter slidably receiving a projecting lateral portion
(47) of the compressor (2) in its movement from a first side (50) of said member to
an opposing second side (41) thereof, during said movement the projecting element
(29) of said member (13) being urged towards the corresponding seat (30) to subsequently
emerge therefrom when it is reached by the hole (48) present in said projecting lateral
portion (47) of the compressor (2), in said situation the projecting element (29)
penetrating into the hole (48) to block said sliding, said member (13) having lateral
means (42) for retaining said lateral portions (47) in a direction perpendicular to
that of said sliding.
