Abstract
An armature of a linear motor is provided. The armature includes an armature core having a plurality of teeth arranged linearly and spaced at predetermined intervals, and a plurality of bobbins fitted onto adjacent teeth, each of the bobbins having flange parts, a winding being wound around the bobbin to form a coil. At least one of the flange parts of the bobbin is formed with a first protrusion and a second protrusion. An overlapped section is formed by the first and second protrusions of two adjacent bobbins contacting or overlapping with each other.
