Abstract

See full text

A linear free piston Stirling machine having a displacer piston mounted on first and second planar springs. The first spring has a stiffness which increases with increasing spring displacement. The second has a stiffness which is less variable with spring displacement to provide a combined stiffness which rapidly increases once the displacer piston displacement exceeds a fixed limit. Each of the springs has a plurality of spiral spring portions and a stress relieving hole beyond the outer edge of the spiral spring portions.
