Abstract:
A connecting member includes a tube portion, a bottom portion provided at an end of the tube portion, an opening provided at the other end of the tube portion, a first limit portion extending from the bottom portion toward the opening in a way that a gap is left between the first limit portion and an internal periphery of the tube portion, and a second limit portion located inside the tube portion and spacedly facing the first limit portion. The first and second limit portions have first and second notches. The connecting member is used in a roller unit of an electronic image-forming apparatus. The connecting member is capable of being coupled with a rotational force receiving member in a way that the rotational force receiving member is freely swingable within an angle range relative to the connecting member without being detached from the connecting member.

Claim (Index 9):
The roller unit of the electronic image-forming apparatus as defined in  claim 3 , wherein the resilient member has an end portion connected with the rotational force receiving member and provided with a stopper portion located inside the second notch and between one of the limit posts of the rotational force receiving member and the second axially extending portion of the second limit portion.
