A cup-shaped flexible external gear 3 of a flexed meshing type gear drive 1 is flexed into an elliptical shape by a wave generator 4. A first torque detection device 6 is disposed on a portion of the external gear 3, for example, on a diaphragm 33 thereof which has a pair of torque detection elements arranged at an angular interval of 90° around a center axis 1a. Likewise, a second torque detection device 7 is also disposed, which has a pair of torque detection elements arranged at an angular interval of 90°. The first and second torque detection devices 6, 7 are arranged at an angular interval of (kx45°) around the center axis 1a with each other. A torque detection mechanism of this invention synthesizes outputs of the two torque detection devices 6, 7, thereby realizing a high accurate torque detection with quite few effect of rotational ripple and with high linearity.
