A pulse tube refrigerator, comprising:a compressor having a sealed case with a cylinder and an opening at one end thereof, a motor mounted in the sealed casing, and a piston operatively attached with the motor to compress and expand an operating gas via the opening; an after-cooler connected with the compressor in order to cool the operating gas discharged from the compressor; a regenerating unit connected with the after-cooler in order to store and release latent heat of the operating gas reciprocating between the compressor and a reservoir formed at an outer surface of the sealed casing and a cover attached to the sealed casing; a pulse tube connected with the regenerating unit, the pulse tube having a cryogenic portion formed thereon; an inertance tube connected with the pulse tube in order to accelerate a forming of the cryogenic portion and connected with the cover; a sealing member which is placed between the cover and the casing in order to prevent leakage of the operating gas; and a vibration absorbing unit placed inside of the reservoir in order to reduce vibration occurring due to the operation of the motor.
- 5. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 4, wherein the inertance tube coils around an outer circumference of the compressor and the reservoir.
- 6. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 4, wherein the vibration absorbing unit comprises:a fixed shaft combined to the center of the lower surface of the sealing member; a plurality of plate springs combined to the fixed shaft in order to generate a frequency of vibration coincided with a frequency of vibration of the motor; and a mass body fixedly combined to the plurality of plate springs.
- 7. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 6, wherein a protrusive combining portion is formed on an upper portion of the sealing member so as to be inserted and combined to the inner circumference of the casing in order to coincide a center line of an operating shaft of the motor with a center line of the fixed shaft.
- 8. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 6, wherein the casing comprises a flange portion radially extended therefrom, and a position setting protrusion portion downwardly extended from the outline of the flange portion in order to coincide an operating shaft of the motor with a center line of the fixed shaft, an outer circumference of the sealing member is extended so as to correspond to an inner circumference of an inner groove of the position setting protrusion portion, and the cover is extended so as to correspond to an outer circumference of the flange portion.
- 9. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 8, wherein a position setting pin is fixedly combined to an outer circumference of the flange portion in order to coincide an operating shaft of the operating motor with the center line of the fixed shaft, and a pin hole is formed on an outer circumference of the sealing member so as to correspond to the position setting pin.
- 10. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 9, wherein the position setting pin is fixedly combined to the outer circumference of the sealing member in order to coincide the operating shaft of the motor with the center line of the fixed shaft, and the pin hole is formed on the outer circumference of the flange portion.
- 11. The pulse tube refrigerator according to claim 4, wherein the casing, sealing member, and cover are sealed, combined with a combining member by forming a through hole on an outer circumference of the sealing member, and formed with a through hole on a flange portion of the lower circumference of the casing combined to the sealing member and upper outer circumference of the cover combined to the sealing member so as to correspond to the through hole formed on the sealing member.
