Each of a sliding bearing and a rotating and sliding member according to the present invention includes an irregularity portion on its inner peripheral surface. The irregularity portion comprises projections adapted to come into contact with a rotary shaft, and recesses which are provided, so that they cannot be brought into contact with the rotary shaft to define gaps or spaces between the bearing itself and the rotary shaft. The irregularity portion is integrally formed-on the inner peripheral surface of the sliding bearing to extend in a direction of rotation of the sliding bearing, in such a manner that the recess is disposed at a central portion of the inner peripheral surface, and the projections are disposed on opposite sides of the recess. By forming the sliding bearing and the rotating and sliding member in the above manner, disadvantages such as the accumulation of a heat and the wearing of the bearing due to an increase in rotational speed can be suppressed to maintain a high rotational accuracy over a long period and to prolong the life of a product.
