A shaft bearing member for supporting a shaft so that the shaft is rotatable has an inner circumferential face serving as a sliding surface. The, shaft bearing member includes an oil groove formed in the inner circumferential face so as to circumiferentially extend, and a plurality of narrow grooves formed on the inner circumferential face so as to extend at a predetermined angle relative to a rotation direction of the shaft from at least one of both widthwise sides of the oil groove toward an axial end side of the inner circumferential face with respect to the shaft. The narrow grooves guide a lubrication oil from the oil groove toward the axial end side with rotation of the shaft. The narrow grooves are shallower and narrower than the oil groove. |
