Abstract
A motor mounting structure for washing machines includes a motor mount mounted on the outer bottom of a water-receiving tub by bolts and having an upper surface and short columnar rubber buffers interposed between a bracket of a motor and the upper surface of the motor mount. Metallic end plates are secured to upper and lower ends of each rubber buffer so that each rubber buffer is coupled to the motor bracket and the upper surface of the motor mount, respectively.
