Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1785626A1] Disclosed herein is a linear compressor in which a piston reciprocally moves in a cylinder upon receiving a reciprocating drive force of a linear motor to compress working-fluid, for example, refrigerant, received in the cylinder. The linear compressor comprises a piston (80) adapted to reciprocally move in a cylinder (70), the piston (80) being internally formed with a suction path (81), and a suction valve (84) inserted in the suction path (81) of the piston (80) to move relative to the suction path (81), the suction valve performing opening/closing operations as it moves relative to the piston (80) when the piston (80) reciprocally moves. With this configuration, the suction valve (84) always exhibits an even stroke, achieving an improvement in response and durability and minimizing vibration and noise due to the opening/closing operations thereof.
