The closed end 11b of the Sleeve 11 and the shaft end 12b are made to be point-contacted through the ball 14. By this point contact, while allowing the sleeve 11 and the shaft 12 to rotate, the pressurization in the axial direction between the sleeve and the shaft can be received. Further, by giving this pressurization, the inner ring 13a of the bearing 13 is displaced toward the axial direction (downward in FIG. 1) interposing the ball 13b to absorb the play of the bearing 13. Accordingly, even though merely one bearing 13 is used, the sleeve 11 and the shaft 12 are prevented from being deflected, to obtain the pivot assembly 10 having a necessary rotation precision.
