  • Patent number: 11732759
    Abstract: A flexible coupling for coupling a first shaft and a second shaft includes a first body and a second body. The first body includes a first end to be fixed to the first shaft, a second end to be fixed to the second shaft and a first tooth, fixed to the radially inner face. The second body is secured to the first body, and has a radially outer face and a second tooth fixed to the radially outer face. The first tooth and the second tooth come into contact when a torque is applied to the first end of the first body so as to transmit the torque to the second end of the first body by the intermediary of the second body.
