Suspension system for a linear compressor

摘要

The suspension system is applied in a compressor, presenting a shell in which interior is horizontally suspended a motor-compressor assembly having opposite ends that are spaced from the shell by an axial spacing. Mounting elements are each attached to an end of the motor-compressor assembly and suspension springs are mounted to the shell and to each respective mounting element. The suspension system comprises stop elements attached to the shell and having a free end portion disposed between a respective end of the motor-compressor assembly and the adjacent suspension spring. A first distance defined between the stop element and the adjacent end of the motor-compressor assembly is smaller than the axial spacing and smaller than a second distance defined between the stop element and an adjacent suspension spring.
