the bracket is provided with a receiving part configured to receive a tip end of the trim rod,
the receiving part includes:
a buffer member made of a resin or rubber; and
a contact member made of metal, which is provided on a surface of the buffer member at a side at which the trim rod is arranged, and which is in contact with the tip end of the trim rod,
a holding member is provided on a surface of the buffer member, which is opposite to the surface of the buffer member on which the contact member is provided, and
the holding member has a box shape of which one wall part is opened, and the buffer member is arranged in the box shape.
2. The outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 1 , wherein
a surface of the contact member, with which the trim rod is in contact, is a concave curved surface.
3. An outboard engine comprising:
the outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 1 ; and
the propulsion device attached to the bracket of the outboard engine lifting/lowering device.
4. The outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 1 , wherein
a surface of the holding member, which is opposite to a surface thereof at which the buffer member is arranged, is provided with a pillar-shaped male screw.
5. The outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 4 , wherein
a surface of the contact member, which faces the buffer member, is provided with a projection, and
the buffer member is formed in the surface which faces the contact member with a concave part configured to be concave so as to accommodate therein the projection or a hole configured to accommodate therein the projection.
6. The outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 1 , wherein
a surface of the contact member, which faces the buffer member, is provided with a projection, and
the buffer member is formed in the surface which faces the contact member with a concave part configured to be concave so as to accommodate therein the projection or a hole configured to accommodate therein the projection.
7. An outboard engine lifting/lowering device comprising:
a bracket which is to be rotatably provided to a hull and which is to be fixed to a propulsion device; and
a rod unit which includes a tilt rod and a trim rod that are configured to rotate the propulsion device and the bracket, wherein
the bracket is provided with a receiving part configured to receive a tip end of the trim rod,
the receiving part includes:
a buffer member made of a resin or rubber; and
a contact member made of metal, which is provided on a surface of the buffer member at a side at which the trim rod is arranged, and which is in contact with the tip end of the trim rod,
a holding member is provided on a surface of the buffer member, which is opposite to the surface of the buffer member on which the contact member is provided, and
a surface of the holding member, which is opposite to a surface thereof at which the buffer member is arranged, is provided with a pillar-shaped male screw.
8. The outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 7 , wherein
a surface of the contact member, with which the trim rod is in contact, is a concave curved surface.
9. An outboard engine comprising:
the outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 7 ; and
the propulsion device attached to the bracket of the outboard engine lifting/lowering device.
10. The outboard engine lifting/lowering device according to claim 7 , wherein
a surface of the contact member, which faces the buffer member, is provided with a projection, and
