Abstract
In an auto-tensioner, a damping device is used to control a fluid communication between a first fluid chamber and a second chamber for adjusting an engagement of an idler pulley with a belt-shaped power transmission member in such a manner that when a tension thereof is decreased, a quick propulsive movement of the idler pulley to the belt-shaped power transmission member is allowed by the first urging member, while when the tension is increased, the idler pulley is retracted gradually from the belt-shaped power transmission member by a registration of the belt-shaped power transmission member.
