    Abstract: A linear motor includes: a movable element including a permanent magnet; a stator including a coil positioned to face the permanent magnet; and a linear guide configured to guide the movable element to move linearly. A support portion provided on the linear guide and a holding portion provided on the movable element to correspond to the support portion are fitted and thereby the movable element is attached to the linear guide. The coil includes a yoke having a plate shape and a winding wire wound around the yoke. The winding wire is continuously wound around the yoke to include a first region where the winding wire is wound around the yoke in a first winding direction and a second region where the winding wire is wound around the yoke in a second winding direction opposite to the first winding direction.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a linear motor that undergoes no deterioration of the measurement accuracy or the driving accuracy depending on a driving situation, and a medical care apparatus including the linear motor. The linear motor of the present disclosure is a linear motor that moves linearly, the linear motor including: a movable element including a permanent magnet; a stator including a coil positioned to face the permanent magnet; and two parallel linear guides configured to guide the movable element to move linearly. Support portions provided on the linear guides, respectively, and holding portions provided on the movable element to correspond to the support portions are fitted with play and thereby the movable element is attached to the linear guides. A position where the permanent magnet is attached to the movable element is asymmetrical with respect to each of the holding portions.
