A flexible coupling has a pair of hub members each having a flange and being connected, respectively, with a drive shaft and a driven shaft, and a main set mounted for free removal between the flanges of the respective hub members facing each other, said main set having a pair of disks and a plurality of connecting members, each connecting member being composed of connecting elements in the form of layers each made of resilient thin sheet material, the disks each having a plurality of pins fixed perpendicularly on the surface of the disk in an arrangement in which each two adjacent pins have an equal distance between them along the circumferential direction of the disks, the disks facing each other with the pins on each disk projecting toward the opposite disk so that the pins of the respective disks facing each other are arranged alternately side by side with an equal distance between any two adjacent pins, the connecting members being connected between adjacent pins to form polygonal links between the disks in the circumferential direction. Torque is transmitted from the drive shaft to the driven shaft through the connecting members so as to produce a tensile force thereon.
