To reduce the impact of this vibration on the washing machine itself and the surrounding environment, shock absorbers are typically used. These shock absorbers need to be installed and secured to the washing machine's base using specialized brackets to ensure stability and effective vibration damping. However, most existing washing machine shock absorber brackets are individually designed based on the washing machine model and size, fixing the mounting space for the shock absorber. This makes them unsuitable for different sized shock absorbers, resulting in poor versatility and certain shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a mounting bracket for a washing machine shock absorber to solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fixing frame for a washing machine shock absorber, including a fixing base, with sliding ring grooves on both side plates of the fixing base, and a shock absorber sliding ring slidably installed in the sliding ring grooves.

The shock-absorbing liner 2c is fixedly sleeved on the inner ring of the cylinder 2a. The diameter of the cylinder 2a is smaller than the height of the slip ring groove 5, and the diameter of the retaining ring 2b is larger than the height of the slip ring groove 5. A shock-absorbing sleeve is sleeved at the contact point between the outer wall of the cylinder 2a and the fixing base 1.

[0020] Furthermore, it also includes a reinforcing plate 7, with limiting blocks 9 fixedly connected to the top and bottom surfaces of the reinforcing plate 7. The two side plates of the fixed base 1 with slip ring groove 5 have limiting grooves 10 adapted to the limiting blocks 9 at one end. The limiting blocks 9 are slidably disposed in the limiting grooves 10. The height of the reinforcing plate 7 is the same as the height of the slip ring groove 5. Threaded holes 11 are provided on the side plates of the reinforcing plate 7 and the fixed base 1. Bolts 8 are threaded into the threaded holes 11 to fix the reinforcing plate 7 to the fixed base 1. One side of the reinforcing plate 7 and one end of the slip ring groove 5 are semi-circular structures adapted to the outer diameter of the cylinder 2a.

[0021] Furthermore, a rubber pad 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed base 1. The bottom of the rubber pad 4 is provided with anti-slip texture. The rubber pad 4 can further improve the shock absorption effect and anti-slip performance of the fixed frame.

[0022] Furthermore, the damping liner 2c is made of rubber and has multiple damping grooves on its surface. These grooves can increase the deformation capacity of the damping liner 2c, thereby improving the damping effect.

[0023] Furthermore, the fitting clearance between the limiting block 9 and the limiting groove 10 is 0.1-0.3mm, which ensures that the limiting block 9 slides smoothly in the limiting groove 10 while also playing a good limiting role.

[0026] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, after fixing the base 1 to the washing machine with bolts, when installing the shock absorber, one end of the shock absorber is placed between the two side plates of the base 1. A pin is inserted into the connecting hole of the shock absorber and into the cylinder 2a of the shock absorber slip ring 2 to fix the shock absorber to the device. The shock-absorbing liner 2c and the shock-absorbing sleeve outside the cylinder 2a can further reduce the vibration generated during the operation of the washing machine. Adjust the position of the shock absorber slip ring 2 in the slip ring groove 5 according to the length and installation position of the shock absorber. Then, insert the positioning pin 3 into the corresponding pin hole 6. The magnetic suction piece 3a at the bottom of the positioning pin 3 is attracted to the base 1, thereby fixing the shock absorber slip ring 2 in a suitable position. The reinforcing plate 7 is installed at one end of the base 1 through the cooperation of the limiting block 9 and the limiting groove 10. The reinforcing plate 7 is fixed to the base 1 with bolts 8. The reinforcing plate 7 can improve the structural strength of the base 1 and improve the stability of the mounting frame. The rubber pad 4 can further improve the shock absorption effect of the mounting frame.
