A hydraulic shock absorber that combines a hydraulic damping force generation mechanism and a coil spring is known as a suspension system for vehicles such as two-wheeled vehicles. It is known that the spring load can be adjusted to change the damping characteristics.

A conventional shock absorber of this type is, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, in which a piston 51 is slidably fitted and a screw 54a at the middle or upper part of a cylinder 53, in which a rod 52 extends outward, is fitted. The carved sleeve 54 is fitted and fixed, and the spring receiving part 55 is attached to this.
On the other hand, a spring receiver 57 is provided at the end of the rod 52, and a coil spring 58 is interposed between them so as to surround the rod and the cylinder. 59 is a lock nut of the adjuster 56. . In the above, the adjuster 56
By rotating the coil spring, it moves in the axial direction around the cylinder 53, and the spring load of the coil spring 58 is adjusted. However, in this conventional means, it is necessary to separately install the threaded sleeve 54, and the number of parts is reduced. It is disadvantageous that the number of sleeves 51 increases, that manufacturing is troublesome because it is necessary to maintain the inner diameter accuracy of the sleeve 51, and that the work of fitting the sleeve and welding increases, which increases the number of man-hours.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, a screw 64 is directly carved on the outer periphery of the middle or upper part of the cylinder 63, and a spring 68 is inserted between an adjuster 66 screwed into the screw and a spring receiver 67 provided on the piston rod 62. A system in which adjustment is performed by screwing the adjuster 66 forward and backward has also been proposed, but this increases the thickness of the cylinder 63, making machining difficult, and increases the weight, which meets the demand for lighter vehicles. There are disadvantages such as going against the rules.

The present invention has been made to improve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to carve a threaded part directly around the plug body of the cylinder and screw the adjuster into this, thereby making use of existing components. It is possible to provide a threaded part while also reducing the weight, and further improves the structure.
The object of the present invention is to provide a hydraulic shock absorber that is easy to manufacture.

The aforementioned plug body 2 has a cup shape in which the circumferential wall portion 2a has a certain length in the axial direction, and has a mounting portion 15 on the outside of the bottom portion 2b for attaching to a rear fork or the like on the wheel side. The inner diameter part of the lower end part 1a of the cylinder 1 is fitted to the outer periphery of the upper end part 2c of the peripheral wall part 2a, and both are welded.
A threaded portion 16 is formed on the outer periphery of the peripheral wall portion 2a excluding the upper end portion 2c. A nut-shaped adjuster 17 having a seat 17a formed of a stepped portion on the outer diameter is screwed around the threaded portion 16, and both ends 18a, 18b of a coil spring 18 are provided so as to surround the rod 8 and the cylinder. is locked by the spring bearing ring 13 and the seat 17a of the adjuster 17, and Fig. K19 shows the lock nut.

Next, to explain the operation and effect in detail, by loosening the lock nut 19 and screwing the adjuster 17, the adjuster 17 is guided by the threaded portion 16 and axially engages the plug 2.
The spring load of the spring 18 interposed between the adjuster 17 and the spring bearing ring 13 is adjusted by moving the spring 18 forward and backward around the circumference, therefore around the cylinder 1, and by raising the adjuster 17, the spring becomes harder. By lowering it, the spring becomes softer and the damping properties are changed.

By the way, in order to provide the screw part for the adjuster on the stopper that forms a part of the cylinder, the number of parts and man-hours increase, such as fitting and welding a threaded sleeve around the cylinder, which is the same as providing the screw part for the adjuster on the plug body that forms part of the cylinder.
The complexity of manufacturing is eliminated, and on the other hand, in order to provide a threaded part on the plug body, the peripheral wall of this is made thick, and the cylinder is necessary and sufficient in terms of strength and rigidity, and when the threaded part is formed integrally with the cylinder. There is no weight increase, and the plug body is short in length in the axial direction, so threading is easy.
