Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce leakage of magnetic flux from an electromagnetic actuator so as to eliminate an influence of magnetic disturbance on the surrounding without increasing size and weight of a device in an electromagnetically driven reciprocating mechanism used to a Sterling refrigerator, etc., for cooling an infrared ray detecting element. SOLUTION: In a Sterling refrigerator in which a reciprocative electromagnetic actuator 4 is incorporated in the housing 1a of a compressor 1 as a driving part for a piston 1b and which is supported movable in axial direction by means of a suspension spring 5 where a piston rod 1c is incorporated in a housing, the suspension spring 5 located adjacent to a clearance (opening of magnet path) between yokes 4b and 4c as a means for blocking a flux of magnet leaking from the electromagnetic actuator and a supporting cylinder 6 for the suspension spring 5 are made of high permeability material (suspension spring: precipitation hardening type stainless steel; supporting cylinder: electromagnetic soft iron, low-carbon steel, silicon steel) and are allowed to work as a magnetic shield to leaking magnetic flux.
