ABSTRACT IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS A flexible coupling for transmitting torque between two relatively rotatable component comprises a plurality of connector members and resilient; elements arranged alternately to form a ring in which alternate connector members are adapted for connection to a respective one of the components and each resilient element is disposed between confronting load transmitting surfaces which are inclined relative to the rotational axis of the coupling whereby axial loads are accommodated by the elements 7 in compression and shear. An even number of members is provided for connection to each component and successive members which in use are connected to the same component are reversed so that under torque loads there is no net axial component of force acting on either the members or the members (5) tending to urge them towards or away from one another in the axial direction.
