US 2001/0043870 A1 · Spring supporting structure of linear compressor

Abstract

The present invention relates to a spring supporting structure of a linear compressor which is capable of reducing the horizontal length of the compressor by reducing the overall length which adds the length of an inner resonance spring to the length of an outer resonance spring by placing at least three inner resonance springs and outer resonance springs so as to cross each other to the cylindrical direction vertical to the center line of a inner/outer spring supporters placed between an inner stator assembly and an outer stator assembly fixedly formed on a frame elastically installed inside of a casing in order to make the magnet assembly perform the linear reciprocating motion, and placing the part of the elastic region of the certain inner resonance spring so as to overlap with the elastic portion of the adjacent outer resonance spring.

Dependent claims

A spring supporting structure of a linear compressor, comprising

a frame elastically installed inside of a casing;
a magnet assembly placed between an inner stator assembly and an outer stator assembly installed fixedly on the frame;
a magnet frame combined to the side of the magnet assembly;
an outer spring supporter combined to the side surface of the magnet frame so as to form supporting portion of an outer resonance spring;
a disk spacer combined to the inner spring supporter so as to have a certain interval;
an inner spring supporter combined to the side surface of the disk spacer so as to form supporting portion of an inner resonance spring;
and
a plurality of inner resonance springs and outer resonance springs having the phase difference separately placed so as to cross each other with a certain interval to the cylindrical direction vertical to the center line of the inner/outer spring supporters.
