Abstract

A suspension and seal system for a motor compressor unit mounted within a hermetically sealed shell. The shell defines at least one chamber filled with refrigerant suction gas and a second chamber filled with refrigerant discharge gas. The compressor's cylinder block includes a radially extending wall member. A second wall member is spaced from the first wall member for defining a space for receiving a combination seal and suspension member. Resilient members are provided at predetermined locations about the motor compressor unit and are squeezed between opposed surfaces of the unit and the shell for dampening motion of the unit within the shell.
