An electromagnetic compressor capable of reciprocating a piston to suck in and compress a gas by the force of an electromagnet and the resilient force of a return spring and a manufacturing method therefor are provided. The compressor includes a cylinder assembly including a front cylinder portion, a rear cylinder portion, and a center hole capable of storing the piston for reciprocation and having a working chamber defined by means of the piston, and an electromagnet located between the front cylinder portion and the rear cylinder portion and capable of actuating the piston. The cylinder assembly and the electromagnet have an integral structure molded from a resin in a manner such that the internal passage is hermetically sealed with respect to the electromagnet and the electrically conductive member.

A dispenser includes a cartridge moving mechanism and a hopper. The cartridge moving mechanism moves between a cartridge receiving position and an extracting position and between the extracting position and a cartridge exhaust position. The hopper has a dropping unit and is disposed immediately above the cartridge receiving position. The dropping unit serves to drop a cartridge consisting of a fluid-impermeable outer frame and a filters. A space defined between the filters and the outer frame and contains a powdery or granular material to be extracted. An extracting mechanism of the dispenser has an upper extracting head, and a lower extracting head including an extracting tank. The upper extracting head is provided above the extracting position and has an extracting chamber. The extracting tank is provided below the extracting position to face the upper extracting head, and another extracting chamber is formed in the extracting tank. The lower extracting head has a heater for heating the extracting tank and a liquid heating passage communicating with the extracting chamber. The dispenser effectively obtains an extract from the material of the cartridge by dripping.
