The invention discloses a damping type gas spring. The damping type gas spring. comprises a cylinder barrel and a piston rod arranged on the cylinder barrel in a telescopic mode, the piston rod is provided with a piston assembly, the piston assembly comprises a piston framework, a rectangular ring, a bowl-shaped ring, a piston flat gasket and a piston fancy gasket, and the piston framework is fixedly installed on the piston rod; the rectangular ring and the bowl-shaped ring are both arranged on the piston framework in a sleeving mode, the piston flat gasket abuts against the rectangular ring for limiting, the piston fancy gasket abuts against the bowl-shaped ring for limiting, and the outer side wall of the bowl-shaped ring is arranged to be a cylindrical surface; and a long-strip-shaped thin groove is formed in the inner wall of the cylinder barrel in the axial direction of the cylinder barrel, and air in the cylinder barrel circulates through the thin groove. The damping type gas spring has the following advantages and effects that a new mechanical structure is utilized for the scheme, the mode that the single bowl-shaped ring is matched with the rectangular ring is adopted, friction resistance with the inner wall of the cylinder barrel during movement can be reduced to a certain extent, accordingly, large static locking force is prevented from being generated during starting, the outward expansion degree of the bowl-shaped ring can be reduced through the cylindrical surface, and elastic restoring force is reduced, so that starting force is reduced, and starting is more convenient.
