Patent attributes
Disclosed herein is a horizontal linear vibrator. The horizontal linear vibrator includes: a case and a bracket that are assembled with each other to form an inner space; a hollow coil that is installed in the case or the bracket; a vibrator that includes a magnetic field unit including one or more magnet disposed to penetrate through the inside of the hollow coil and a yoke formed to enclose the hollow coil and the magnets to generate magnetic field and a weight mounted in the magnetic field unit; a buffer member that is provided between the hollow coil and the yoke; and a spring member whose one end is fixed to the case or the bracket and other end is fixed to the vibrator and elastically supports the vibrator so as to horizontally move the vibrator. Thereby, there is provided the horizontal linear vibrator that has a horizontal vibration structure capable of maintaining the lifetime and response characteristics of the horizontal linear vibrator, implementing the sliminess thereof, increasing the vibration quantity thereof while controlling the motion displacement and improving the durability thereof.
