On a mount member 6 at the side of the driving shaft, slide members 10a, 10b at the side of the driving shaft are each mounted and, on a mount member 8 at the side of the driven shaft, slide members 12a, 12b at the side of the driven shaft are each mounted. A torque transmitting member which is disposed therebetween comprises a disk portion 14a, an inner circumferential rib 14b, an outer circumferential rib 14c and an intermediate rib 14d extending between these ribs, and has through holes 16a, 16b and 18a, 18b having a pair of first and second inner slide surfaces slidable relative to a pair of outer slide surfaces of each slide member at the side of the driving shaft and the driven shaft. These first and second inner slide surfaces include a plane formed by the foregoing intermediate rib. A shaft coupling according to the present invention can effectively cope with the eccentricity, angular deviation and the axial movement between the driving shaft side and the driven shaft side and which is simple in arrangement and lightweight while allowing a great torque to be transmitted.
