Abstract
A cryocooler includes a cold head including a displacer movable in an axial direction, a drive piston connected to the displacer to move the displacer in the axial direction, an expansion chamber formed with the displacer, a piston drive chamber formed with the drive piston, a spool valve including a valve drive chamber, a spool that moves between a first position and a second position in response to a pressure of the valve drive chamber, and a pressure control mechanism configured to control a pressure of the valve drive chamber so that the spool reciprocates between the first position and the second position, and to generate a pressure fluctuation having an opposite phase to the pressure fluctuation in the expansion chamber in the piston drive chamber in synchronization with the reciprocation of the spool.
