Suspender and washing machine

The invention provides a suspender and a washing machine, relates to the technical field of washing machines, and aims to improve the damping effect of the suspender by additionally arranging a damping structure on the suspender. The invention provides the suspender which comprises a rod body and a lower suspension ball arranged on the rod body and further comprises a damping structure, wherein the damping structure is arranged on the rod body; a containing cavity is formed in the damping structure; non-Newtonian fluid is arranged in the containing cavity; and when the lower suspension ball moves downwards, the non-Newtonian fluid can be extruded to generate a damping effect. One or two damping structures are additionally arranged on a traditional suspender to improve the stability of the washing machine, and the damping structures use the non-Newtonian fluid, so that the damping effect of the suspender is further improved by means of the shear thickening characteristic of the non-Newtonian fluid; and the dam
