- An intermediate member is provided for reducing wear due to friction accompanying relative movement with the outer peripheral surface.
- the slide bearing 80 is effective in that it can constitute an intermediate member for reducing the friction accompanying the relative movement by simple means.
- the plain bearing 80 is mounted so as to cover the intermediate portion 53 over substantially the entire length of the intermediate portion 53 of the shaft 50. Further, since the slide bearing 80 is mounted in a state where a clearance is provided with respect to the intermediate portion 53 of the shaft 50, it is possible to avoid co-rotation with the shaft 50.

There is no direct contact with the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate portion 53 of the cured shaft 50. That is, the slide bearing 80 is interposed between the inner peripheral surface of the valley portion 64 of the bellows portion 65 and the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate portion 53 of the shaft 50. Thereby, the inner peripheral surface of the valley portion 64 of the bellows portion 65 contacts the outer peripheral surface of the slide bearing 80 on one side of the boot 60, but the inner peripheral surface of the valley portion 64 of the bellows portion 65 is the outer peripheral surface of the slide bearing 80. And the inner peripheral surface of the slide bearing 80 slides with respect to the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate portion 53 of the shaft 50.
- the relative movement amount between the inner peripheral surface of the valley portion 64 of the bellows portion 65 and the outer peripheral surface of the slide bearing 80 is determined between the inner peripheral surface of the valley portion 64 of the bellows portion 65 and the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate portion 53 of the shaft 50. It can be made smaller than the relative movement amount.
