Abstract

Transport refrigeration apparatus including a metallic frame having first and second upstanding end portions, an upstanding back portion, and a horizontally oriented portion which extends between the upstanding end portions and the upstanding back portion. The metallic frame includes first and second spaced end members each having first and second integral portions. The first integral portions form part of the upstanding back portion, and the second integral portions form the first and second upstanding end portions. The second integral portions function as support arms for refrigeration components of the apparatus, with each having a generally triangular configuration which includes a horizontally oriented lower side, a vertically oriented back side, and a flanged side. The flanged side includes a horizontally oriented lower portion which flares upwardly via a smoothly radiused intermediate portion to join an upper portion which slopes towards the vertically oriented back side.
