PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a low torque stabilizer link capable of restricting the backlash between a spherical part and a bearing member of a ball stud.SOLUTION: A stabilizer link 1 of the invention comprises a housing 11 for supporting a ball stud 10, a connection 1b of which is connected to first and second structures 2 and 3b, swingably and rotatably, in which the ball stud 10 has a stud part 10s extending from a spherical part 10b; the housing 11 includes a bearing member 12 for slidably accommodating the spherical part 10b in a spherical space 10k so as to support the ball stud 10; the bearing member 12 includes an aperture 12i where the spherical space 10k is opened on the side of the stud part 10s and a concave lubricant receiving part 12c opposing the aperture 12i; and on a wall surface 12n on which the spherical space 12k of the bearing member 12 is formed and the spherical part 10b slides, concave grooves 12m1 and 12m2 are formed on both sides or one side of a maximum inner diameter part using a central axis J1 of the spherical space 12k from the side of the aperture 12i on the side of the lubricant receiving part 12c as an axis.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 18
【課題】ボールスタッドの球体部と支持部材との間のガタつきを抑制でき、低トルクのスタビリンクを提供する。【解決手段】本発明のスタビリンク1は、接続部10bが、第1・第2構造体2、3bに連結されるボールスタッド10を揺動可能および回転可能に支持するハウジング11を有し、ボールスタッド10は、球体部10bからスタッド部10sが延設され、ハウジング11は、球形空間10kに球体部10bを摺動可能に支持部材12を有してボールスタッド10を支持し、支持部材12は、スタッド部10s側で球形空間10kが開口される開口部12iと、開口部12iと対向する凹状の潤滑剤受け部12cとを有し、支持部材12の球形空間12kが形成され球体部10bが摺動する壁面12nには、開口部12iの側から潤滑剤受け部12cの側への球形空間12kの中心軸J1を軸とする最大内径部の両側又は片側に、凹溝12m1、12m2が形成される【選択図】図18
