ABSTRACT:
A flexible coupling element used in a flexible coupling for interfacing a drive shaft and a driven shaft and for transmitting torque therebetween while accommodating angular misalignment; the flexible coupling may be offset-link type or single disc type, both types incorporating a composite fiber wound around drive-bushings and driven-bushings in a winding pattern; the flexible coupling element being formed by compression and heat cured so that the runs connecting each bushing taper to a point midway between adjacent bushings.
