Abstract
The linear actuator includes an inner core (), and an outer core () provided outside the inner core in a radial direction while being supported by a pair of flat springs (and). Permanent magnets (and) are formed at one of the inner core and the outer core, and magnetic pole portions (and) are formed at the other of the inner core and the outer core to face the permanent magnet with predetermined gaps formed therebetween. Spacers (and) are respectively provided between the inner core and the flat springs, abutting portions are respectively configured by abutting facing surfaces of the spacers and the inner core and facing surfaces of the spacers and the flat springs adjacent to the spacers in the axial direction, and at least an engagement portion including a recess and a protrusion are arranged at the abutting portions.
