A stability mechanism that can reduce deformation of a frame of a compressor. The stability mechanism can have a support member with an x-shaped configuration having a pair of peripheral members and diagonal components disposed therebetween. In use, the support member can work in combination with elongated “tie bars” to prevent deformation of the frame that may result from installation and/or use of the compressor.

1. A compressor, comprising: a central frame having members that form an interior cavity with an opening to allow access therein; anda stability mechanism disposed in the opening and coupled with the members of the central frame, the stability mechanism comprising a support member and a first tie bar, the support member dimensionally larger than the first tie bar so as to cover more area of the opening than the first tie bar,wherein the support member comprises a central member and a pair of peripheral members, and wherein the central member has a plurality of legs radiating from a center point to the peripheral members. 2. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the plurality of legs form an x-shaped configuration. 3. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the plurality of legs form a pair of diagonal components that intersect at the center point. 4. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the plurality of legs form an angle relative to a centerplane that intersects the central point, and wherein the angle is from 30° to 60°. 5. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the plurality of legs adjoin the peripheral members at a joint region that forms a curved surface. 6. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the plurality of legs have a width that varies in a direction from the peripheral members to the center point. 7. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the support member is removable from the central frame. 8. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the central frame has a center portion and a pair of peripheral portions disposed on either side of the center portion, wherein the central member is disposed in the center portion and the tie bar is disposed in one of the peripheral portions. 9. The compressor of claim 8, wherein the stability mechanism comprises a second tie bar and a third tie bar, each disposed in one of the peripheral portions. 10. A compressor, comprising: a central frame with an opening into an interior cavity;a plurality of tie bars extending across the opening; anda support member extending across the opening in between the plurality of tie bars, the support member comprising a pair of peripheral members spaced apart from one another and a plurality of legs disposed therebetween, wherein the plurality of legs are arranged as diagonal components and are coupled with the pair of peripheral members,wherein the plurality of legs have a width that varies in a direction from the peripheral members to a central point formed by two centerplanes that bisect the support member, one each in a horizontal direction and a longitudinal direction. 11. The compressor of claim 10, wherein the support member is removable from the central frame. 12. The compressor of claim 10, wherein the plurality of legs form an angle relative to the centerplane in the horizontal direction, and wherein the angle is from 30° to 60°. 13. The compressor of claim 10, further comprising bearings disposed in the interior cavity, wherein the support member is located in a position in the opening that is set-off from the bearings. 14. The compressor of claim 13, wherein the support member is disposed proximate a centerplane of the central frame. 15. The compressor of claim 10, wherein the peripheral members have a first side and a second side, each with a surface that contacts the central frame. 16. A reciprocating machine, comprising: a frame with walls forming an interior cavity with an opening to allow access therein;a shaft assembly disposed in the interior cavity;bearings disposed on the shaft;a support member disposed in the interior cavity proximate the opening in the frame top and between the bearings, the support member comprising, a pair of peripheral members, each having an elongated, rectangular body that couples with the frame; anda pair of diagonal components, each extending between the peripheral members to intersect with one another at a central point; anda pair of tie bars disposed on either side of the support member. 17. The reciprocating machine of claim 16, wherein the pair of diagonal components form an angle relative to a centerplane disposed between the peripheral members, and wherein the angle is from 30° to 60°. 18. The reciprocating machine of claim 16, wherein the support member is dimensionally larger than each of the pair of tie bars so as so as to cover more area of the opening than either of the pair of tie bars individually.
