Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a bearing member having a highly accurate dynamic pressure generating portion stably at low cost. Dynamic pressure grooves () and () are formed as the dynamic pressure generating portions on an inner circumferential surface of the electroforming portion () by an electroforming process, and injection molding is performed by using a resin while inserting the electroforming portion (), thereby forming a bearing member (). A shaft member () is inserted into an inner circumference of the bearing member.
