Abstract

See full text

A base for supporting a component of an appliance and a method of assembling the same, is formed from a single sheet having four opposing sides and a top of the base when erected. Two of the opposing sides include inner and outer panels that are affixed to one another to maintain the base in the erected configuration, and define an internal cavity therein for receiving the appliance component. When a force is applied to the appliance, the erected base supports the component, which may be the motor of a washing machine, within the internal cavity to inhibit movement of the component.
