COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLIES INCLUDING LOWER COVERS HAVING MOUNTING FEET SKIRTS CONFIGURED FOR INCREASING MOUNTING FEET STIFFNESS AND RESISTANCE TO CRACK FORMATION

Abstract: exemplary embodiments are disclosed of compressor assemblies including lower covers having mounting feet skirts configured for increasing mounting feet stiffness and provide better resistance to crack formation due to vibration, e.g., in mobile and transport applications, etc. the mounting feet skirts may comprise full, rounded, and/or radiused skirts disposed along or around the entire end portions of the mounting feet near the mounting holes (e.g., bolt holes, etc.) in the mounting feet. using full, rounded, and/or radiused skirts avoids or eliminates sharp corners, such as the sharp corner fillet features of conventional lower covers that are prone to having cracks form due to vibration while in transit.
