ABSTRACT:
A propeller shaft PS1comprises a front pipe member10and first and second yoke members20and30, which are attached to both the ends of the front pipe member10. The first yoke member20is attached by press-fitting a first yoke fitting portion23into the inner circumferential part at the left end of the front pipe member10until the front end of the front pipe member comes near a stopper portion24. The second yoke member30, which has no stopper portion, is attached by press-fitting a second yoke fitting portion33into the inner circumferential part at the right end of the front pipe member10. When a compressive force greater than a predetermined force acts axially, while the first yoke fitting portion23is prevented from being further inserted by the stopper portion24, the second yoke fitting portion33is press-fit further into the inner circumferential part of the front pipe member, which is thereby expanded and destroyed.
