That is because it never was called a repulsor before that asshole hack Matt Fraction was - Oh gravest of mistakes! - given control over the comic.
Before the movie, Iron Man had never had a reactor in his chest. In the original comic, he needed a metal chestplate to keep the shrapnel into place, but it obviously wasn't invasive. Eventually he got a heart transplant - actually more like repair surgery - and no longer needed the chest plate. Much much later he had a potentially fatal heart attack and one of his armors, which had gained sentience, implanted an artificial heart in his chest. But that also did not generate any energy, so he needed to recharge it every 48 hours or so. Then, Warren Ellis - damn his arrogant English ass - pretended there never had been an artificial heart, and introduced him to Extremis. Then, Matt "I only care a tiny" Fraction decided Tony needed a glowing disc on his chest, like in the movie (I suppose it could have been editorial mandate, but in that case fuck him for kowtowing!) so he first gave Pepper one, which eventually was implanted into Tony's body for no good reason whatsoever.
Tony'd had his mind gradually wiped - itself a totally retarded story - and to get back, he 'needed' a "Repulsor generator" put inside him. No, of course he did not. There was no reason for it - none. Except that someone wanted a glowing disc inside Tony's chest.
And a "Repulsor generator"? A repulsor is a weapon. Always has been, always will be. It pushes things. That is why it doubles as a propulsion unit. The movie handled it with elegant genius. Fraction handled it as if he still was drunk, instead of a recovering alcoholic: actually the repulsor was the entire basis of the Iron Man!
I don't think I will ever forgive that talentless charlatan.
