Abstract

L'objet de la présente invention est de fournir un amortisseur qui assure l'apport d'une force et qui peut être léger. Dans la présente invention, un cylindre externe tubulaire (113) pour loger un mécanisme d'amortissement a une paire de parties de fixation de mâchoire (104a, 104b) faisant saillie dans une direction à partir de la surface extérieure du cylindre externe (113) et formant une seule pièce avec le cylindre externe (113). Les parties de fixation de mâchoire (104a, 104b) ont des surfaces de grande largeur respectives se faisant face et les surfaces de grande largeur sont disposées dans la direction axiale du cylindre externe (113). Lorsque l'épaisseur du cylindre externe (113) sur les côtés des parties de fixation de mâchoire (104a, 104b) sur une ligne virtuelle reliant l'axe central du cylindre externe (113) et le point médian entre les deux surfaces se faisant face des parties de fixation de mâchoire (104a, 104b) est défini comme ta et l'épaisseur du cylindre externe (113) sur les côtés opposés des parties de fixation de mâchoire (104a, 104b) par l'axe central du cylindre externe (113) est définie comme tc, le cylindre externe (113) est conçu pour avoir une partie de paroi épaisse qui satisfait la relation : ta > tc.
