Abstract
A valve opening-closing timing control apparatus includes a phase adjustment mechanism. The phase adjustment mechanism includes an input gear and an elastic member that applies biasing force to the input gear in such a way that the input gear meshes with an output gear. An eccentric member includes one first concave portion along a circumferential direction thereof, being formed on an outer circumferential surface. The elastic member includes a supported portion supported by the first concave portion, and a curved portion and a biasing piece portion that generate biasing force. The elastic member is supported by the first concave portion at two different boundaries in the circumferential direction.
