Abstract
In a shock absorber 100, 200, an inner case 1 is biased in the axial direction relative to an outer case 2 made of resin by a spring 5, and the inner case 1 and the outer case 2 abut each other in the radial direction via ribs 2g, 8c.
Claims5
A shock absorber comprising:
- an inner case filled with hydraulic fluid;
- an outer case made of resin disposed so as to cover the inner case, the outer case forming a reservoir for storing the hydraulic fluid between the outer case and the inner case;
- a biasing member accommodated within the reservoir, the biasing member being configured to bias the inner case relative to the outer case in the axial direction of the outer case;
- and protrusions formed on either one of an outer peripheral surface of the inner case and an inner peripheral surface of the outer case so as to protrude toward and abut the other one of the outer peripheral surface of the inner case and the inner peripheral surface of the outer case.
