Abstract
An active vibration control apparatus includes a linear actuator and a controller. The linear actuator includes a moving element, a stator and an elastic support. The stator has a plurality of coils surrounding the moving element. The elastic support supports the moving element to be reciprocally movable relative to the stator in an axial direction of the moving element due to elastic deformation of the elastic support. The controller is configured to apply an alternating current to the stator to generate vibration due to relative displacement of the moving element and the stator in the axial direction. The controller is configured to correct a center position of an amplitude of the vibration by additionally applying a predetermined direct current as a biased current to the stator when the linear actuator satisfies a predetermined vibration condition.
