ABSTRACT:
A flexible coupling for coupling a drive member with a driven member has a supporting plate to which a first pair of flexible plates and a second pair of flexible plates are fixed in such a way that the former extends in parallel in one direction and the latter extends in parallel in a direction opposite the one direction. To free end portions of the flexible plates, a first and second joint members for connecting the drive and driven members to the flexible coupling, respectively, are connected. When there is a dis-alignment between the axes of the drive and driven members, a bending force is applied to the flexible plates to flex the same, thus absorbing the axial offset therebetween. In this case, since the rotational force to be transmitted is applied in the width direction of the respective plate members, they can be rigid against the rotational force to be transmitted and are hardly distorted thereby.
