The seal member is constructed of a high-rigidity support member and an elastic member, and an intermediate portion of the support member is bent, one end of the support member is a fixed portion fixed to the end portion of the female shaft, and at least an end portion on the other side of the support member is a fitted portion to which the elastic member is fitted so as to be in contact with an outer peripheral surface of the male shaft with frictional force.
