In a damping force generator for a hydraulic damper, the valve is protected from pressure rise in the damper and its durability is thereby enhanced. The damping force characteristics can be vary in stepwise fashion by providing a main leaf valve 21 and a sub-leaf valve which closes an opening 21A formed in the main leaf valve 21, and the approximate mid-point of the main leaf valve 21 is supported by a plurality of intermediate seat surfaces 16 from the side of a port 13. The outer circumference of a main leaf valve 64 is supported by an outer circumferential seat surface 62, and the outer circumference of a sub-leaf valve 65 extends outwards to the vicinity of a part where the outer circumference of the main leaf valve 64 and the outer circumferential seat surface 62 overlap.

1. A damping force generator for a hydraulic damper comprising a main leaf valve and a sub-leaf valve laminated on each other, wherein said sub-leaf valve closes an opening formed in said main leaf valve and has a lower bending rigidity than that of said main leaf valve, only said sub-leaf valve opens to generate a damping force when a stroke speed of a piston rod is low, and said main leaf valve opens to suppress an increase of the damping force when the stroke speed of said piston rod is high, and said generator is characterized in that:said generator further comprises a seat surface supporting an outer circumference of said main leaf valve, and said main-leaf valve is pushed onto said seat surface by pushing an inner circumference of said main-leaf valve to bend said main-leaf valve, the inner circumference of said main-leaf valve being pushed and shifted by a spacer which supports said sub-leaf valve, the spacer being selected to set an initial load of said main-leaf valve.
