摘要:
A buffer member and impact absorbing device can buffer various impacts, namely from an extremely strong impact such as drop to a weak impact or repetitive vibration such as daily operation. The buffer member is formed of a soft flexible part (S111) that deforms compressively, has cushion performance, and has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and a sheet-like substrate part (S112) that has flexibility, is made of resin material, and has a substantially rectangular shape. A slit is formed by substantially vertically slotting the flexible part from its one surface to a midway so as to leave a surplus material part (W), and the substrate part is inserted and mounted to the slit formed in the flexible part. A relatively weak impact force is absorbed by the surplus material part of the flexible part, and a strong impact force that has not been completely absorbed by the surplus material part is absorbed by interaction between the flexible part and the substrate part.
