Abstract: A rubber element according to the present invention includes a pair of mounting plates (2) attached respectively to a pair of rib surfaces of drive and driven ribs which are spaced and opposed to each other; and an elastic member (4) made of rubber held between the pair of mounting plates (2) which are spaced and opposed to each other and bonded to joining surfaces of the pair of mounting plates (2). The pair of mounting plates (2) are respectively provided with protrusions (3) protruding toward each other in central areas of the joining surfaces or lateral areas of the joining surfaces including the central areas and extending in a direction parallel to an axis about which flanges rotate.

Abstract: A compression elastic coupling device has: a drive flange fixedly mounted on an end of a drive shaft, the drive flange being provided on its surface facing a driven shaft with drive protrusions arranged at equal angular intervals; a driven flange fixedly mounted on an end of a driven shaft, the driven flange being provided on its surface facing the drive shaft with driven protrusions arranged at equal angular intervals so as to be interposed between adjacent drive protrusions of the drive flange; and power transmitting elastic members radially inserted in spaces each formed between adjacent drive and driven protrusions from a side of outer circumferences of the drive and driven flanges toward a central axis of the drive and driven shaft.
