Abstract
In a yoke for a cross shaft universal joint, the forming direction of a through hole () and a screw hole () is inclined relative to the axes of circular holes () formed in a pair of engaging arm parts (). And, by fastening a bolt () to thereby put first and second flange parts () nearer to each other, mutually approaching forces are applied to the connecting arm parts () in a direction inclined relative the axes of the circular holes (). Thus, cup bearings () incorporated in the circular holes () are pressed against the end of a shaft part () constituting a cross shaft (), thereby enabling suppression of occurrence of shaking motion between the bearings incorporated in the circular holes and the end of the shaft part of the cross shaft supported rotatably by the bearings.
