PURPOSE: To reduce bending vibrations of a driveshaft and to solve unbalanced problem of damping materials by freely vibratingly connecting a vibration damper to a non-rotating part subjected to the action of the inner rubber connecting member of a bearing member. CONSTITUTION: A tapered end of an intermediate shaft 16 is fitted into an intermediate bearing 19. This intermediate bearing 19 comprises a ball bearing and a rubber diaphragm 20 and the ball bearing has the bearing outer ring 17a connected to a vehicle body via the rubber diaphragm 20. The hollow shaft 16 has the tapered end held inside a bearing inner ring 17b and holds a joint fork 23 of a center joint 18, and the center joint 18 is connected to a joint fork 26 of a second hollow shaft 27 via a cross pin 2. The vibrating member 21 of the vibration damper 15 is connected via a ring 22 arranged concentrically therewith and the ring 22 is directly fixed to the bearing outer ring 17a. |
