PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tensioner with a bent stopper pin for avoiding the contact of a handle portion of the stopper pin with an interfering article when mounting the tensioner with the stopper pin in a small space and for allowing the removal of the stopper pin while avoiding the interfering article even when there is only a small space after mounting the tensioner and components. SOLUTION: A plunger 3 is provided in a housing 5 so as to be protruded to the direction of setting a chain by an energizing means. The front end of the bent stopper pin 7 inserted through a pin through-hole 6 formed in the housing 5 engages with a locking groove 4 formed in the outer peripheral face of the plunger 3 to restrict the jump-out of the plunger 3 pushed in the housing 5. The bent stopper pin 7 consists of a pin body 8 and the handle portion 9, the handle portion 9 being bent at an angleαof 90°or less to the pin body 8. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
