Abstract
An air suspension surrounding a shock absorber with a housing fixed to a car body and an elastic body to form an air chamber includes a first support member connected with a piston rod of the shock absorber, a second support member disposed at the outside of the first support member and connected with the housing, an O-ring interposed between the first and second support members to maintain the air chamber under the airtight condition and a stopper provided in relation with one of the support members and spaced from the other in an axial direction of the piston rod. The O-ring is disposed in a position to maintain the air chamber with airtightness when the stopper abuts against the first or second support member.
