Abstract
A valve seat member is provided in a cap member. A first sub valve is provided in another side chamber. A second sub valve is provided in a cap chamber formed between a bottom portion of the cap member and the valve seat member. In a second passage, an orifice is disposed on an upstream side or a downstream side from the first sub valve in flow by which the first sub valve is opened. In a region in which a piston speed is low, a valve of a second damping force generating mechanism is opened in a state in which a valve of a first damping force generating mechanism is closed. In a speed region in which the piston speed is higher than in another region, the valve of the first damping force generating mechanism and the valve of the second damping force generating mechanism are both opened.
