Claim:
1. A linear actuator including an inner core; a pair of flat springs provided so as to interpose the inner core from front and rear of the inner core in an axial direction; and an outer core that is provided outside the inner core in a radial direction so as to be disposed on the same axial center as the inner core while being supported by the pair of flat springs, permanent magnets being formed at one of the inner core and the outer core, and magnetic pole portions being formed at the other of the inner core and the outer core to face the permanent magnets with predetermined gaps formed therebetween, wherein through holes are formed in the inner core and the pair of flat springs at positions of the same axial center, a shaft having a large diameter portion formed at one end is closely inserted into the through holes from the other end, and a fixing collar is forcibly pressed into the other end protruding through the through holes in the axial direction, wherein a spring member is provided at least one of between any one of the pair of flat springs and the large diameter portion, and between any one of the pair of flat springs and the fixing collar, wherein positions of the inner core and the pair of flat springs are restricted while applying urging force in the axial direction of the shaft by the spring member between the larger diameter portion and the fixing collar, wherein the outer core includes stopper members at positions corresponding to the large diameter portion of the shaft and the fixing collar on both sides in the axial direction, the stopper members are provided with holes arranged with predetermined gaps formed between the stopper members and outer circumferences of the large diameter portion and the fixing collar, and the predetermined gap is smaller than a gap between the permanent magnet and the magnetic pole portion, wherein a resin collar is provided at least any one of the outer circumferences of the large diameter portion and the fixing collar and inner circumferences of the stopper members corresponding to the outer circumferences.
