The damping device for a washing machine comprises a damping suspension rod, an upper bracket, a damping spring, a sliding damping support seat, and a sliding damping piece. An upper end of the damping suspension rod is installed on a cabinet of the washing machine, the upper bracket is installed on an outer tub of the washing machine. The damping suspension rod, passes through the upper bracket, the sliding damping piece, the sliding damping support seat and the damping spring in sequence from top to bottom. The outer tub of the washing machine shakes or swings to put an eccentric pressure on the upper bracket, then the damping spring is compressed, and the sliding damping piece is tightened to generate a sliding damping acting on the damping suspension rod.
