Linear compressor cylinder and head construction

摘要

A cylinder assembly for a linear compressor includes a cylinder chassis with an inner surface defining a cylinder space extending along an axis from a cylinder head end. The cylinder space is at least substantially cylindrical. A cylindrical cylinder liner, open at both ends is located within the chassis. The outer surface of the liner is engaged against the cylinder space defining portion of the inner surface of the chassis. A valve plate is being bonded or fused to the cylinder head end of the cylinder liner. The valve plate sealingly closes the cylinder head end of the cylinder space.
