A bayonet coupling including an annular groove and bayonet lugs on an inner ring-shaped
member and an outer ring-shaped member; and insertion openings formed on either
the inner ring-shaped member or the outer ring-shaped member which includes the
annular groove. The bayonet lugs includes first bayonet lugs associated with the
insertion openings to be insertable into the annular groove through the insertion
openings, and a second bayonet lug for which no associated insertion opening is
formed. The insertion openings, the first bayonet lugs and the second bayonet lug
are shaped so that the second bayonet lug is insertable into the annular groove
with axes of the outer and inner ring-shaped members being inclined to each other,
and so that the first bayonet lugs are insertable into the annular groove through
the insertion openings, respectively, after the second bayonet lug is inserted
into the annular groove.
