  • Patent number: 4436335
    Abstract: The invention is particularly adpated to support refrigerators in recreational vehicles, to maintain the refrigerators in level condition, although the invention may be adapted for use in supporting other appliances, such as stoves and the like. The gas-fired absorption type of refrigerator is the most popular type for travel trailers, but it must be maintained in level condition in order for it to operate properly. My invention provides a support for a refrigerator wherein the latter is always gravity-urged to level condition. Dash pot devices are included to yieldably oppose movement of the refrigerator, so that the latter moves gently from one position to another in accordance with the angularity of the terrain over which the travel trailer travels or on which it is parked. The supporting means may be built as part of the refrigerator at the factory, or it may be offered in kit form for installation on refrigerators already in use or on the market.
