It is easy to maintain the high-pressure state in the case body, and the air mixed in the case body can be easily exhausted only when the case body becomes a negative pressure state, and the case can be easily and firmly installed. A hydraulic tensioner with excellent durability of parts in the main body. The
exhaust valve unit of the hydraulic tensioner (100) consists of a one-way
ball valve (151) that prevents the outflow of pressure oil in the high-pressure oil chamber (R) and exhausts the mixed air, and includes the one-way
ball valve (151 ) state to make the ball guide (152) to swim, fix on the ball guide (152), seal the one-way
ball valve (151) in the disc-shaped baffle in the ball guide (152) (153), the ball seat (154) that is fixed on the ball guide (152), stops the outflow of the pressure oil in the high-pressure oil chamber (R) when the one-way ball valve (151) is in place, and to the ball seat ( 154) The ball valve loading of the one-way ball valve (151) is loaded with a spring (155).
