ABSTRACT:
A rotating side case supporting the rotor of an in-wheel motor and a wheel or a hub are interconnected by a flexible coupling which comprises a motor-side plate and a wheel-side plate having a plurality of grooves and a plurality of grooves formed on their opposed surfaces in the circumferential direction at an angle of 45° from the radial direction of the plates and extending in directions orthogonal to each other, respectively, small balls sandwiched between the grooves and in such a manner that they can slide, and an intermediate plate interposed between the above plates and having guide holes for guiding the small balls in a direction orthogonal to the radial direction of the plates and which has a small number of parts and is easily assembled.
