Linear compressor

A linear compressor comprising:

• a compressor main body comprising:
• a cylinder that defines a compression space,
• a piston located inside of the cylinder and configured to reciprocate relative to the cylinder in an axial direction of the cylinder,
• a mover coupled to the piston and configured to transfer driving force to the piston,
• a stator that defines a cylinder space accommodating the cylinder and that is configured to generate the driving force together with the mover,
• a frame that is in contact with a first side of the stator and that supports the stator in the axial direction,
• a cylinder support member that is spaced apart from the frame in the axial direction, that is located between an inner circumferential surface of the stator and an outer circumferential surface of the cylinder, and that is configured to restrict the cylinder from moving relative to the stator in the axial direction,
• a stator cover that supports a second side of the stator in the axial direction and that is fastened to the frame, and
• a discharge valve configured to open and close at least a portion of the compression space;
• a first guide coupled to the compressor main body;
• and
• a second guide that is spaced apart from the compressor main body, that is located at a position facing the first guide, and that is configured to receive the first guide to support a weight of the compressor main body,
• wherein the cylinder support member comprises:
• a cylindrical portion,
• a first bent portion that is located at a first end of the cylindrical portion, that is bent radially outward to the stator, and that is supported by the stator in the axial direction, and
• a second bent portion that is located at a second end of the cylindrical portion opposite to the first end, that is bent radially inward to the cylinder, and that supports an area of the cylinder in the axial direction.
