Abstract
A bearing member includes a concave section receiving a spherical body therein, and swing grooves into which end sections of a rotating force transmission pin are inserted. The swing groove at least includes a parallel part an axis and a curved part, an undercut section is not provided in the concave section when the concave section is viewed from an opened side of the concave section in a direction of the axis of the bearing member, and a clearance between the two swing grooves in a direction which is orthogonal to the direction of the axis on the opened side of the concave section is shorter than a distance between both ends of the rotating force transmission pin in the direction which is orthogonal to the axis of the bearing member even when the shaft member is mounted on the bearing member in a posture inclined at the most.
