Abstract
The present disclosure provides a shock absorber apparatus that includes a bump stopper coupled to a piston rod of a shock absorber. A piston housing comes into contact with the bump stopper when the shock absorber is moved vertically. A support supports a spring surrounding the piston housing. An air cap extends from an upper end of the piston housing to the support so as to cover the piston housing and has an upper surface through which a piston rod passes, a side surface downwardly extending from an end of the upper surface, and an air channel through which compressed air of the bump stopper is guided and discharged to the support.
