One of the gear members includes a peripheral groove formed in inner or outer portion, and a ring engaged in the peripheral groove of the gear member, and engageable with the teeth of the other gear member, to reduce noises that may be generated between the gear members. The ring may also include a number of teeth for engaging with the teeth of the other gear member, to effectively reduce the noises.
