Abstract

A flexible shaft coupling of a type which uses a serpentine metal grid (25) to connect teeth (18) on hubs (12) attached to driving and driven shafts (10, 11) has the sides of the teeth (18) made of a polymeric resin material such as a polyurethane or a reinforced nylon 6/6, lubricated with PTFE. The side faces of the teeth (18) deflect and deform under torque load to accommodate to the grid (25).
