A shock-absorbing damper for absorbing the impact force generated during the opening/closing of a furniture door, the damper including: a load pin in a housing to move back and forth during the opening/closing of the furniture door; a main valve coupled to the load pin to form a first flow path; a check valve coupled to a guide bar of the main valve in a manner to form a second flow path; a guider coupled to the main valve to guide the fluid flow; and a pressure adjuster interposed between the main valve and the check valve to vary the first flow path. The pressure adjuster and the guider are provided in the shock-absorbing damper to vary a flow path corresponding to an opening/closing load of the furniture door, thereby opening/closing the furniture door at a set speed regardless of the size or weight.

A variable shock-absorbing damper for a furniture hinge, which includes a pressure adjuster built in the furniture hinge to buffer and absorb an external load occurring in the process of opening and closing a furniture door, the damper comprising: a housing configured to have accommodated therein

1. A variable shock-absorbing damper for a furniture hinge, which includes a pressure adjuster built in the furniture hinge to buffer and absorb an external load occurring in the process of opening and closing a furniture door, the damper comprising: a housing configured to have accommodated therein a working fluid of the shock-absorbing damper;a load pin fittingly coupled to the housing and configured to reciprocate in the process of opening and closing the furniture door;a main valve coupled to the load pin and including a first flow path defined therein;a check valve slidably coupled to a guide bar of the main valve so as to allow a second flow path to be defined between the guide bar and the check valve, wherein the check valve comprises a semi-circular groove concavely formed in a position facing the first flow path so as to partly accommodate a body of the pressure adjuster;a guider configured to be deformed or returned by a pressure of the working fluid while being coupled to the main valve to guide a fluid flow; anda pressure adjuster interposed between the main valve and the check valve and configured to be deformed according to the pressure of the fluid to vary the first flow path,wherein the guider comprises a body coupled to a coupling hole of the main valve by means of a fitting protrusion, and a skirt integrally formed on the outer circumferential surface of the body through a connection member so that the skirt is deformed or returned according to the pressure of the fluid.
