Claim:
1. A linear motor comprising: a mover formed by lining up a plurality of pieces of permanent magnets or magnetic materials side-by-side while inversing a magnetization direction thereof; and an armature, including: a first magnetic pole tooth, and a second magnetic pole tooth, disposed in such a way as to vertically tuck the permanent magnet or the magnetic material; a magnetic material for linking the first magnetic pole tooth to the second magnetic pole tooth, thereby forming a path for a magnetic flux; and windings disposed on the first magnetic pole tooth and the second magnetic pole tooth, respectively, together with at least two units of the armatures being lined up in the traveling direction of the mover or the armature, to be linked with each other by use of the magnetic material, the linear motor producing thrust for causing the mover and the armatures to make a relative horizontal movement, wherein at least two different flux paths for allowing a magnetic flux from each of the windings to pass therethrough are provided, wherein
