Abstract
A small end of a connecting rod includes an oil supply hole extending from an outer surface to an inner surface of the small end. The oil supply hole includes an oil storage groove and a communication hole. The oil storage groove is recessed from the outer surface and extends along the circumference of the small end. The communication hole extends through a bottom surface of the oil storage groove and connects the outer and inner surfaces. Opposite edges of the oil storage groove contact the outer surface in a direction the oil storage groove extends. The bottom surface of the oil storage groove has an opening contacting a wall surface of the communication hole. When the small end includes a distal end of the connecting rod defining a top, the opposite edges are located between the top and the opening in the bottom surface of the oil storage groove.
