BACKGROUND ART In general, a reciprocating motor is an apparatus for generating a driving force as an armature undergoes a linear reciprocating movement by a flux formed around a winding coil when a current is applied to the winding coil at the side of the stators.

Figure 1 is a side view of a reciprocating motor in accordance with a conventional art, and Figure 2 is a sectional view in the direction of A-A line of Figure 1.

The reciprocating motor roughly includes stators 10 forming a flux when a current is applied thereto from an external source, and an armature 15 positioned in the stators 10, undergoing a linear reciprocating movement by virtue of the flux generated around the stators.

The stators 10 includes a cylindrical outer core 20, an inner core 25 positioned inside the outer core and a winding coil 30 installed at an inner side of the outer core 20 or the inner core 25, to which a current is applied from an external source.

The outer core 20 is formed cylindrical as a plurality of lamination sheets 21 are radially stacked, and the inner core 25 is formed also cylindrical as a plurality of lamination sheets 26 are radially stacked.

The lamination sheets 21 are mutually fixed by a fixing ring 23 connected to the side thereof.

The winding coil 30 is installed at one of the outer core 20 and the inner core 25 and constructed such that a coil is wound within a bobbin 35 made of an insulation material so as to be insulated with the outer core 20 or the inner core 25 where the flux is formed.

The bobbin 35 is formed in a hollow ring shape and includes a winding part 36 in which the coil is wound and a terminal part 37 protruded from one side of the winding part 36 and press-fit with a wire so that the winding coil 30 can be connected to an external power source.

A connector 38 is provided at the end of the terminal part 37 so as to be easily connected to the external power source.

The armature 15 includes a cylindrical movable cylinder 16 inserted between the outer core 20 and the inner core 25 and linearly moved to transmit a driving force and a plurality of permanent magnets 18 mounted at the moving cylinder 16, for generating a mutual interaction force with a flux generated when a current is applied to the winding coil 30.

In the reciprocating motor constructed as described above, when a current is applied to the winding coil 30, a flux is formed around the winding coil 30, which flows forming a closed loop along the outer core 20 and the inner core 25.

At this time, as a mutual interaction force is generated between the flux flowing to the outer core 20 and the inner core 25 and the magnetic flux formed by the permanent magnet 18, the armature 15 including the permanent magnet receives a force in the axial direction, and undergoes a linear movement.

Accordingly, in the reciprocating motor, when the direction of the current applied to the winding coil 30 is changed in turn, the armature 15 continuously undergoes a linear movement between the stators 10 and generates a reciprocating movement force.

Figure 3 is a schematic view showing an assembly structure that lamination sheets are stacked centering around a bobbin, and Figure 4 is an enlarged view of a portion'B'of Figure 1 showing how the lamination sheets and the terminal part contact each other.

With reference to Figure 3, the lamination sheets 21 of the outer core 20 are successively stacked around the winding part 36 of the bobbin 35.

Especially, the lamination sheets 21 is formed in an'L'shape with the side portion 21 a and the upper portion 21 b integrally formed. The lamination sheets 21 and 21'are stacked in turn at the left side and the right side to make a cylindrical structure.

Accordingly, as shown in Figure 4, though the outer diameter side'H' of the outer core 20 is fixed through a fixing ring 23 in a state that the outer peripheral portions 221 b of the lamination sheets 21 mutually contact closely, there is a gap between the lamination sheets 21 at the inner diameter side (I) of the core.

The terminal part 37 of the bobbin 35 is formed in a fan shape such that it is gradually widened as it goes from the inner diameter side of the outer core to the outer diameter side so that the laminations sheets 21 can be densely stacked in a cylindrical form.

In the outer core 20 formed as the lamination sheets 21 are stacked centering around the bobbin 35, when a current is applied to the winding coil 30 and a flux is formed, electromagnetic force is generated between the lamination sheets 21, so that the lamination sheets 21 at the side of the inner diameter (I) are vibrated.

At this time, since a mutual repulsive pulse is generated between the mutually adjacent lamination sheets 21 in terms of the magnetic circuit structure, the lamination sheets 21 do not collide with each other.

However, in case of the lamination sheet 21 adjacent to the terminal part 37 of the bobbin 35, since the lamination sheet 21"collides with the terminal part 37 while being vibrated, a collision noise is generated from the portion'K'of Figure 4, and in the worst case, it deteriorates a durability so that an operational efficiency of the motor is degraded or causes an occurrence of breakdown.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a reciprocating motor which is capable of preventing a lamination sheet from vibrating during operation of a motor so that interference between elements such as the lamination sheet and a terminal is prevented to reduce a collision

noise and damage to components and heighten a reliability in operation of the motor.

In order to achieve the above objects, there is provided a reciprocating motor including : a bobbin in which a coil is wound; a terminal part formed at one side of the bobbin to electrically connect the coil and an external circuit; a core part at which a plurality of lamination sheets are radially stacked in the circumferential direction centering around the bobbin; and a fixing part for fixing at least one of lamination sheets at the side of the core part.

accompanying drawings.

Figure 5 is a side view of a reciprocating motor in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 is a sectional view taken along line'C-C'of Figure 5 in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention and Figure 7 is an enlarged view of a portion'D'of Figure 5, a major part in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention.

A reciprocating motor in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention includes stators 50 and an armature 55 which undergoes a reciprocating movement according to interaction of a magnetic flux within the stators 50.

The stators 50 includes a cylindrical outer core 60 and a cylindrical inner core 65 positioned inside the outer core 60, and a winding coil 70 is installed inside the outer core 60, to which a current is applied from an external source.

The armature 55 includes a moving cylinder 56 inserted between the outer core 60 and the inner core 65 and moved linearly to transmit a driving force, and a plurality of permanent magnets 58 mounted at the moving cylinder 56 and generating a mutual interaction force with a flux generated when a current is applied to the winding coil 70.

The outer core 60 and the inner core 65 are formed cylindrical as a plurality of lamination sheets 61 and 66 are radially stacked, and the stacked lamination sheets 61 are mutually fixed by a fixing ring 63.

The winding coil 70 is wound in a bobbin 75 made of an insulation

material so as to be electrically insulated with the outer core.

The bobbin 75 includes a hallow annular winding part 76 in which a coil is wound, and a terminal part 77 having a connector 78 protruded at one side of the winding part 76, to which a wire is connected so that the winding coil 70 and an external source can be connected, and connected to an external power source.

The terminal part 77 of the bobbin 75 is formed fan-shaped such that it is widened as it goes toward the outer diameter so that the lamination sheets 61 can be densely stacked in the circumferential direction.

The lamination sheet 61 is formed in an'L'shape such that the side portion 61 a and the upper portion 61 b are integrally formed.

Accordingly, the outer core 60 is formed cylindrical as the plurality of lamination sheets 61 are alternately stacked at the left side and the right side from one side to the opposite side of the terminal part 77 of the bobbin.

In this respect, as shown in Figure 7, a bonding member 80 is filled between the lamination sheet 61'adjacent to the terminal part 77 and the terminal part 77 and between the lamination sheet 61'and the lamination sheet 61"so that mutually adjacent portions can be fixed each other.

In Figure 7,'S'indicates a portion glued by using the bonding member 80.

The bonding member 80 is filled at the inner diameter portion, that is, at the side portion 61 a and the upper portion 61 b except the pole portion (P) of the lamination sheet 61, to mutually fix the lamination sheets 61'and 61" as well as the lamination sheet 61'and the terminal part 77.

Not limited to the portion adjacent to the terminal part 77, the bonding member 80 may be filled all over the outer core 60 in the circumferential direction to mutually fix the lamination sheets 61. Or, the bonding member 80 may be filled only between the terminal part 77 and the lamination sheets 61 adjacent to the terminal part 77 to fix only the lamination sheet 61'adjacent to the terminal part 77.

In the reciprocating motor in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention, when a current is applied to the winding coil 70, a flux is formed around the winding coil 70, and the flux flows forming a closed loop along the outer core 60 and the inner core 65.

At this time, as an electromagnetic force is generated between the lamination sheet 61 of the outer core 60, each lamination sheet 61 would be vibrated, but, as shown in Figure 7, since the lamination sheet 61'and the lamination sheet 61"and the terminal part 77 and the lamination 61'are mutually fixed by the bonding'member 80, no collision between the adjacent members occurs.

Of course, in case of the mutually adjacent lamination sheets 61 which are not fixed by the bonding member 80, since mutual repulsive force is generated between them in terms of the magnetic circuit structure, they do not collide with each other.

In a state that no collision occurs between the lamination sheets 61' and 61"of the outer core 60 and between the lamination sheet 61'and the terminal part 77, a mutual interaction force is generted between the flux flowing at the outer core and the inner core 65 and a magnetic flux formed by

the permanent magnet 58, so that the armature 55 including the permanent magnet 58 receives a force in the axial direction and undergoes a limear movement.

Accordingly, in the reciprocating motor, when the direction of the current applied to the winding coil 70 is alternately changed, the armature 55 undergoes a linear movement successively between the stators 50, generating a reciprocal movement force, and at this time, since no collision occurs between the lamination sheet 61 and the terminal part 77, a noise possibly generated during the operation of the motor can be reduced as much.

Figure 8 is a detailed view of a major part of a reciprocating motor in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention.

A reciprocating motor in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention is featured in that a structure of a bobbin 75'is modified to prevent a collision between a terminal part 77'and a lamination sheet 61'.

That is, the terminal 77'of the bobbin 75'is formed fan-shaped so as for the lamination sheets 61'to be stacked densely in a cylindrical form. A fixing part 78'is protruded so that the terminal part 77'can be continuously adhered to a lamination sheet 61 a'adjacent to the both sides of the outer core 60'at the side of the inner diameter.

The fixing part 78'is gradually protruded in the lamination sheet 61 a' direction as it goes from the center of the side face of the terminal 77'to the inner diameter of the core and formed to be adhered to the side of the lamination sheet 61'.

It is preferred that the protrusion of the fixing part 78'is as high as that the lamination sheet 61 a'where the fixing part is adhered is contactable to an adjacent lamination sheet 61 b'.

Though the fixing part 78'is formed wholly protruded at the side of the terminal 77', it may be formed that a part thereof is protruded at the side of the terminal part 77'according to a designing condition.

As aforementioned, in the reciprocating motor in accordance with the second embodiment of the present invention, since the terminal part 77'and the lamination sheet 61 a'adjacent to the terminal part 77'are mutually adhered by the fixing part 78', the lamination sheet 61 a'adjacent ot the terminal part 77'will not move during an operation of the motor, so that collision with the terminal part 77'would not occur.

Figure 9 is a detailed view of a major part of a reciprocating motor in accordance with a third embodiment of the present invention.

A reciprocating motor in accordance with the third embodiment of the present invention is featured in that a structure of a bobbin 75"is modified to prevent a collision between the terminal part 77'and the lamination sheet 61".

That is, the terminal part 77"of the bobbin 75"is formed in a shape (S) with both sides at the inner diameter side of the outer core 60"deleted so as for the lamination sheets 61"not to collide with each other while being vibrated.

It is preferred that the deleted portion (S) in the terminal part 77"is distanced from the lamination sheet 61"as far as by more than twice the thickness (t) of the lamination sheet 61".

Accordingly, the reciprocating motor in accordance with the third embodiment of the present invention, even though the lamination sheets 61" adjacent to the terminal part 77"are vibrated owing to the mutual repulsive force during operation of the motor, they would not collide with the terminal part 77"thanks to the deleted portion (S).

Figure 10 is a detailed view of a major part of a reciprocating motor in accordance with a fourth embodiment of the present invention.

A reciprocating motor in accordance with the fourth embodiment of the present invention is feature in that a lamination sheet 111 adjacent to a terminal part 117 of a bobbin 115 is bent to be adhered to the terminal part 117.

That is, in a lamination sheet 111, an inner end portion 111 a forming the inner diameter of an outer core 110 is bent to have an elasticity to be adhered to the terminal part 117, so that the inner end portion 111 a of the lamination sheet 111 is put to a state of being constantly adhered to the side of the terminal part 117.

Accordingly, since the lamination sheet 111 adjacent to the terminal part 117 is elastically adhered to the terminal part 117, the lamination sheet 111 is prevented from colliding with the terminal part 117 during an operation of the motor.

Figure 11 is a detailed view of a major part of a reciprocating motor in accordance with a fifth embodiment of the present invention.

A reciprocating motor in accordance with a fifth embodiment of the present invention is featured in that, unlike the reciprocating motor in

accordance with the fourth embodiment of the present invention, an inner end portion 121 a of a lamination sheet 121 is completely attached to the terminal part 127 by using an adhesive 129.

That is, in the fifth embodiment of the present invention, in a state that the middle portion of the lamination sheet 121 is somewhat bent, the side face at the side of the inner end portion 121 a is attached to the side face of the terminal part 125 by using an adhesive 129, to have a completely fixed structure, and accordingly, the lamination sheet 121 and the terminal part 125 are prevented from colliding with each other during an operation of the motor.

sheet 141 and a lamination sheet 141'or between the lamination sheet 141 and a terminal part 145, so that they can be mutually fixed by a hardened molding member 149.

In detail, the molding member 149 is filled between the lamination sheets 141 and the terminal part 145 in a melt state at the side of the outer core and hardened to a sold state, so that the lamination sheet 141 is prevented from colliding with the terminal part 145.

In this respect, when the molding member 149 is injected between the lamination sheet 141 and the terminal part 145, if the molding member 149 flows out to the inner diameter of the outer core 140 and is hardened, an interruption occurs with respect to an armature (not shown) during an operation of the motor. Thus, it is preferred that the molding member is filled only at the inner side except the pole portion (P), the inner end portion of the lamination sheet, and hardened.

Meanwhile, the reciprocating motor is typically used for a compressor of a freezing cycle. Thus, as the molding member 149, a member having a property of maintaining the hardening characteristic as it is is preferably selected for use according to a type of a coolant.

Similar to the insertion member of the eighth embodiment of the present invention, the rubber member 169 is made of a rubber material having an elasticity, and especially, it is preferred that portions inserted between the two members are integrally formed by being mutually connected by a connection portion 169a.

Accordingly, as for the reciprocating motor in accordance with the ninth embodiment of the present invention, since the rubber member 169 is inserted between the terminal part 165 and the lamination sheet 161 adjacent ot the terminal part 165, the lamination sheet 161 is prevented from colliding with the terminal part 165 during an operation of the motor, so that a noise

generation can be reduced during the operation of the motor.

A reciprocating motor in accordance with the tenth embodiment of the present invention is feature in that a conductor member 179 is installed at both sides of a terminal part 175 of a bobbin to create a repulsive force with respect to a lamination sheet 171.

The conductor member 179 is formed as a thin plate having an area equivalent to the area of the lamination sheet 171 and attached to the side of the terminal part 175.

Accordingly, in the reciprocating motor in accordance with the tenth embodiment of the present invention, since a flux is formed even at the conductor attached to both sides of the terminal part 175 as well as at the lamination sheet 171 as the motor is operated, a pushing force works between the conductor member 179 and the lamination sheet 171.

Accordingly, the lamination sheet 171 adjacent to the terminal part 175 is prevented from being vibrated, so that collision between the terminal part 175 and the lamination sheet 171 is prevented.
