A compressor is provided that may include a cylinder comprising at least one gas inlet formed on an outer circumferential surface, the cylinder being formed in a cylindrical shape; a piston disposed inside of the cylinder and configured to reciprocate axially; a spring supporter disposed outside of the cylinder and coupled to a rear of the piston; a resonant spring coupled to the spring supporter; a magnet frame coupled to a front of the spring supporter; and a mover disposed on the magnet frame. The at least one gas inlet may include a first gas inlet, and a second gas inlet disposed at a rear of the first gas inlet. A straight line extending radially from a center of mass of the piston, the spring supporter, the magnet frame, and the mover may be disposed between the first gas inlet and the second gas inlet.

Compressor

A linear compressor includes one spring assembly including a plurality of spring parts fixed to both side surfaces of a supporter and a rear cover and configured to support a load generated in the compressor. In addition, both side portions of the spring part are provided with fixing brackets coupled to the supporter and the rear cover, and the fixing bracket is provided with an insertion member or a bracket coupling member so that the coupling force of the spring part can be increased.

Linear compressor

A transverse flux reciprocating motor and a linear compressor including the same are described. The transverse flux reciprocating motor includes an outer stator including a stator core, a teeth portion extended from the stator core to an inside, and a teeth shoe extended from an inner end of the teeth portion in a circumferential direction; a coil disposed on the teeth portion; an inner stator disposed in the outer stator and configured to reciprocate in an axial direction due to an electromagnetic interaction with the coil; and a magnet disposed on the teeth shoe and facing the inner stator. The stator core includes a plurality of core plates stacked in the axial direction. The magnet includes first and second magnets that are spaced from each other in the axial direction.
