Abstract: A solenoid apparatus for a shift lever is provided that includes a bobbin having an aperture therein and a coil wound therearound. A core is mounted on the exterior of the bobbin, surrounds an end portion of the aperture, and is magnetized by a current applied to the coil.

A shaft is inserted into, and penetrates through, the plunger and a buffer member is disposed at an end of the shaft exposed from the plunger. An elastic member is disposed between the buffer member and an end of the aperture. The plunger moves toward the core due to combined forces obtained by combining forces applied in a direction of the movement of the plunger by a magnetic field generated by the current and attractive forces generated vertically between the plunger and the core.

The refrigerant suction guide structure includes a cylinder having an accommodating space inside, a piston having suction channels through which refrigerant is inhaled inside and inserted into the cylinder to be in a linear reciprocating motion, a suction valve included in the end of the piston to open and close the suction channels, and a valve fixing member for combining the suction valve with the piston. The suction channels of the piston include inclined surfaces for guiding refrigerant to the outside in which the suction valve is first opened. The suction channels are formed so as to be inclined to reduce flow resistance of inhaled refrigerant such that the amount of the inhaled refrigerant is increased. Therefore, it is possible to improve the efficiency of a compressor.

The linear compressor comprises the piston adapted to reciprocally move in the cylinder, the piston being internally formed with a suction path, a suction valve to open or close the suction path of the piston to selectively connect the suction path of the piston to the interior of the cylinder, and a suction valve stopper to limit the degree of opening of the suction valve, whereby no excessive stress is applied to the suction valve. This has the effect of eliminating damage and deformation of the suction valve, minimizing vibration and noise due to the opening/closing operations of the suction valve, and maintaining the compression efficiency of the compressor at a constant value.
