- connection rod 844 rotates in one direction
- the second pressure member 642 is not rotated by the guide pin 846 , but moves upwardly or downwardly, i.e., rectilinearly moves in the longitudinal direction of the damper cylinder 610 .
- the frictional force between the friction member 630 and the inner wall of the damper cylinder 610 is adjusted by the vertical movement of the second pressure member 642 .
- damper 600 b Other configurations and operating method of the damper 600 b are substantially the same as those of the damper of the first embodiment, and a detailed description thereof will thus be omitted because it is considered to be unnecessary.
- the second pressure member 642 of the damper 600 c moves by the magnetic force of an electromagnet 945 , similarly to the damper 600 of the first embodiment.
- the damper 600 c includes the electromagnet 945 provided on the first pressure member 641 , and a first metal member 946 provided on the second pressure member 642 .
- the electromagnet 945 passes through the first pressure member 641 so that the surface of the upper end of the electromagnet 945 coincides with the surface of the upper end of the first pressure member 641 .
- the electromagnet 945 includes a core 945 a installed on a body of the shaft 620 , a bobbin 945 b installed outside the core 945 a , and a coil (not shown) wound on the bobbin 945 b several times.
- the core 945 a of the damper 600 c of this embodiment is fixed to the upper end of the body of the shaft 620 , the position of the core 945 a is not limited thereto.
- the electromagnet 945 further includes a second metal member 945 c surrounding the outer cylindrical surface of the bobbin 945 b provided with the coil wound thereon.
- the second metal member 945 c uniformly distributes the magnetic force generated when current flows along the coil, and improves the magnetic force of the electromagnet 945 .
- the first metal member 946 serves to move the second pressure member 642 towards the first pressure member 641 when current flows along the electromagnet 945 .
- the first metal member 946 is fixed to the second pressure member 642 . More preferably, the first metal member 946 is fixed to the lower part of the second pressure member 642 .
- a guide rod 944 which passes through the second pressure member 642 so that one end of the guide rod 944 is connected to one end of the electromagnet 945 , is provided.
- the guide rod 944 vertically passes through the central portion of the second pressure member 642 so that the lower end of the guide rod 944 is fixed to the core 945 a of the electromagnet 945 .
- a guide hole through which the guide rod 944 passes, is formed through the second pressure member 642 .
- the guide hole has a larger diameter than that of the guide rod 944 .
- a stopper 944 a for preventing the separation from the second pressure member 642 is formed on the guide rod 944 .
- the stopper 944 a is provided on the other end of the guide rod 944 , i.e., the upper end of the guide rod 944 , and has a larger diameter than that of the guide hole.
- the second pressure member 642 when the supply of current to the electromagnet 945 is cut off, the second pressure member 642 is distant from the first pressure member 641 by force applied to the friction member 630 , and a designated distance between the second pressure member 642 and the first pressure member 641 is maintained by the stopper 944 a . That is, the second pressure member 642 moves upwardly to a designated distance, and is then stopped by the stopper 944 a.
- damper 600 c Other configurations and operating method of the damper 600 c are substantially the same as those of the damper of the first embodiment, and a detailed description thereof will thus be omitted because it is considered to be unnecessary.
- the friction member may contact the inner wall of the damper cylinder by a small force in the normally vibrated state of the object rather than in the excessively vibrated state of the object.
- the damper of the present invention adjusts the damping force thereof according to the vibration degree of an object to be vibrated and/or the number of rotation of the object, thereby improving a vibration-damping effect and a noise-preventing effect.
- the damper of the present invention decreases the transmission of the vibration of the object, thereby preventing peripheral components from being damaged.
- the damper of the present invention has the simple configuration of a pressure unit for pressing a friction member, thereby being easily manufactured.
- the damper of the present invention does not require a power device for reducing the damping force of the damper, thereby reducing production costs.
- the damper of the present invention reduces or eliminates frictional force between a damper cylinder and the friction member in the normally vibrated state of a tub, thereby lengthening the life span of the friction member.
