An air damper comprises a cylinder (1) having first (1a) and second (1b) openings at both ends, a piston (2) that moves in the cylinder (1), a piston rod (3) coupled to the piston (2) and moving in and out at the first opening (1a) of the cylinder (1); and a cap (4) positioned at the second opening (1b) of the cylinder (1). The piston rod has a continuous outer wall and an opening extending along the longitudinal axis of the rod. The cross-sectional view of the piston rod taken along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis is an inverse U-shape, an inverse V-shape, a C-shape, or the like. The piston rod has a fixing ring at the leading end. A plane containing the opening is perpendicular to a plane defined by the fixing ring. The piston rod is fixed to a glove box so that the opening faces down. <IMAGE> |
