Abstract

Disclosed herein is a linear compressor having a sensor for detecting the position of a piston. The linear compressor has a position-detecting unit for detecting the position of a piston. The position-detecting unit comprises a sensor core mounted such that the sensor core can be moved along with the piston and the position of the sensor core can be adjusted, and a sensor having a detection hole formed therein for detecting the position of the sensor core disposed in the detection hole. The sensor is fixed to a fixing frame. The sensor core is engaged with a core-supporting member in such a manner that the height of the sensor core can be adjusted without using washers for adjusting the height of the sensor, whereby productivity is improved and manufacturing costs are reduced.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

[0001] This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 2004-36266, filed on May 21, 2004 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] 1. Field of the Invention

[0003] The present invention relates to a linear compressor, and, more particularly, to a linear compressor having a sensor for detecting the position of a piston.

[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art

[0005] Generally, a compressor is part of a refrigerating cycle that is used to generate conditioned air through the circulation of a coolant in an air conditioner or a refrigerator. Specifically, the compressor serves to compress the coolant at high temperature and high pressure. One kind of compressor is a linear compressor, which has a linear motor driven through the interaction due to change in direction of magnetic flux for reciprocating a piston.
