ABSTRACT:
A coupling system provided with a dual torque transmitting arrangement to provide compensation for axial misalignment between a drive shaft and a driven shaft where a primary flexible coupling member transmits torque between the drive shaft and the driven shaft preferably through a sleeve also coupled with a flexible coupling member to the driven shaft; the flexible member includes a gear transmission system for transmitting torque in the event of severe torsional overload of the flexible member which causes the gear teeth of the secondary coupler to engage and transmit torque from the drive to the driven shaft.
