Abstract:
A linear compressor and a refrigerator including a linear compressor are provided. The linear compressor may include a compressor casing connected to each of a suction inlet, through which a refrigerant may be introduced, and a discharge outlet, through which the refrigerant may be discharged, a compressor body mounted within the compressor casing, within which the refrigerant suctioned in through the suction inlet may be compressed due to a linear reciprocating motion of a piston in an axial direction of the compressor casing and discharged into the discharge outlet, and at least one plate spring disposed on each end of the compressor body in the axial direction.
Abstract:
A linear compressor is provided that may include a cylinder which defines a compression space for a refrigerant and into which a piston that reciprocates in an axial direction may be inserted, a frame in which the cylinder may be accommodated, a discharge valve that selectively discharges the refrigerant compressed in the compression space for the refrigerant, a spring assembly coupled to the discharge valve, a discharge cover on which the spring assembly may be seated and having a discharge space through which the refrigerant discharged through the discharge valve may flow, and a first gasket seated inside of the discharge cover to support the spring assembly and attenuate vibration during an operation of the discharge valve.
Abstract:
An linear compressor and a linear motor for a linear compressor is provided. The linear compressor may include a shell, in which a suction inlet may be provided, a cylinder disposed in the shell to define a compression space for a refrigerant, a frame coupled to an outer side of the cylinder, a piston reciprocated in an axial direction within the cylinder, a stator cover coupled to the frame, and a linear motor supported by the frame and the stator cover to provide power to the piston. The stator cover may include a body, and at least one frame coupling portion coupled to the frame. The at least one frame coupling portion may extend from the body toward the frame.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a gripper including a pair of main bodies each having an internal space and spaced apart from each other, a pair of openings provided at ends of the pair of main bodies, a pair of moving bodies protruding from the ends of the pair of main bodies through the openings, a pair of inner bodies fixed in the internal space of the pair of main bodies, and a pair of springs configured to be compressed between the inner body and the moving body.
Abstract:
A linear compressor is provided that may include a shell; a compressor body accommodated in the shell to compress a refrigerant; a discharge cover assembly through which the refrigerant compressed in the compressor body may be discharged; a cover pipe that extends from the discharge cover assembly to discharge the refrigerant discharged into the discharge cover assembly to an outside of the discharge cover assembly; a discharge pipe coupled to the shell to discharge the refrigerant flowing along the cover pipe to an outside of the shell; a loop pipe having a first end connected to the cover pipe and a second end connected to the discharge pipe; and a coupling member that respectively couples both the first and second ends of the loop pipe to the cover pipe and the discharge pipe. The coupling member may include a connection member, a first portion of which is inserted into the loop pipe and a second portion of which is inserted into the discharge pipe or the cover pipe. The connection member may be formed of a steel material. At least one of the discharge pipe or the cover pipe may be formed of a steel material.

A linear compressor and a refrigerator including a linear compressor are provided. The linear compressor may include a shell coupled to a suction inlet, through which a refrigerant may be introduced, and a discharge outlet, through which the refrigerant may be discharged, a cylinder disposed within the shell to accommodate a piston reciprocated to compress the refrigerant introduced through the suction inlet, a frame that accommodates the cylinder, the frame being mounted inside the shell, and a discharge cover coupled to a front surface of the frame to discharge the refrigerant compressed by the piston to the discharge outlet. A front surface of the cylinder that faces the discharge cover may be spaced a predetermined distance from the discharged cover.
