Abstract:
A rotary member includes a rotary shaft with a flange that projects radially out from a position near an end of the rotary shaft. A shaft end portion of the rotary shaft projects longitudinally beyond the flange and has a lubricant filling hole for receiving a lubricant. The rotary member also includes a bearing with a wall surface that has a recess. The recess has an opening and a closed depth end. The shaft end portion is accommodated in the recess so that the flange contacts the wall surface and closes off the recess to define a substantially closed space that can retain lubricant.
