A cup member has a cylindrical portion, a bottom portion, and a short shaft portion having a solid shaft shape and including a joining end surface at an end portion thereof. A shaft member has a solid shaft shape and includes a joining end surface at one end thereof. The joining end surfaces of the cup and shaft members are brought into abutment against each other and welded from a radially outer side to form a welded portion. At this time, center segregation is prevented from interfering with the welded portion. The cup member is formed by forging including upsetting a billet having a columnar shape successively in a plurality of stages, extruding the cylindrical portion and the short shaft portion, and ironing the cylindrical portion. In the course of the upsetting, a region of the billet corresponding to a bottom side of the cup member is narrowed. 1. An outer joint member of a constant velocity universal joint , comprising:a cup member; anda shaft member,the outer joint member being manufactured by joining the cup member and the shaft member,the cup member having a bottomed cylindrical shape that is opened at one end, and comprising a cylindrical portion, a bottom portion, and a short shaft section protruding from the bottom portion, the short shaft portion having a solid shaft shape, and comprising a joining end surface at an end portion thereof,the shaft member having a solid shaft shape, and comprising a joining end surface at one end thereof,the joining end surface of the cup member and the joining end surface of the shaft member being brought into abutment against each other and welded to form a welded portion having an annular shape, to prevent interference of center segregation with the welded portion.2. A method of manufacturing an outer joint member of a constant velocity universal joint claim 1 , when the outer joint member of a constant velocity universal joint of is to be manufactured claim 1 , the method comprising: upsetting a billet having a ...
