Abstract: A shock absorber includes an outer tube, an inner tube having a proximal end sleeved slidably into the outer tube and a distal end extending away from the outer tube, a shaft disposed inside the inner tube, a plurality of shock absorbing elastic blocks which are mounted on the outer tube for positioning resiliently the distal end away from the outer tube and which are sleeved around the shaft inside the inner tube without contacting the inner tube, each block having an inner tubular part sleeved around the shaft, and an outer tubular part wrapped around the inner tubular part. The inner and outer tubular parts are made of rubber materials having different degrees of stiffness. The inner tubular part has a stiffness higher than that of the inner tubular part to resist and limit impact pressure acting on the outer tubular part, thereby reducing deformation of the outer tubular part along radial directions and preventing the blocks from contacting the inner tube upon shock.
