PCT No. PCT/JP91/00612 Sec. 371 Date May 27, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date May 27, 1992 PCT Filed May 8, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/06311 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 16, 1992.A shaft coupling includes a plurality of first channels (10) which runs in a first direction formed at a flange portion (3) at the end portion of a driving shaft and a plurality of second channels (12) which run in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction formed at a flange portion (5) at the end portion of a driven shaft. A torque transmitting member (14) is interposed between the flange portion (3) and the flange portion (5). A plurality of first slide members (16) which each slidably fit with the first channels are formed on the transmitting member (14), and a plurality of second slide members (18) which each slidably fit with the second channels are formed thereon. The transmitting member (14) is made of plastic material, and the flange portions (3) and (5) are made of metal. According to this shaft coupling, the eccentricity, deviation of angle and axial movement between the driving shaft side and the driven shaft side can be effectively undertaken and a great torque can be thereby smoothly transmitted with a small loss.
