A bladder (10) for an accumulator (20) has a hollow shell (21) formed of an elastic material layer (11), a gas-barrier layer (12) laminated thereon, and a central portion (11A). An elastic fitting portion is formed at an inner surface of a radially outward peripheral edge portion (11B) of the elastic material layer to be pressed radially outwardly towards the shell when the fitting portion (11A) is attached to the shell by an attaching element (22). The thickness of the bladder varies between the central and peripheral edge portions by being thinner proximate the central portion and thicker at a curved inversion portion (11C) between the intermediate portion and the outer peripheral edge portion to reduce rigidity at the intermediate portion and preventing lumping in the curved inversion portion. |
