The two-legged section is rotatably connected to the arm holder via a bolt. A rear end of the axle support arm includes a bearing section provided with a slot. The axle support arm is rotatably connected to an axle via the bearing section. Indentations that open upwardly are formed in a central part of the axle support arm with bearing sections provided on lower ends of the pushrods being fitted in the indentations and a bolt inserted into the bearing sections from a side direction.
