Flexible couplings are couplings that allow the rotor to have a separate axial displacement, and there can be a certain deviation in the alignment of the two rotors connected.
Flexible coupling refers to the ability to compensate the relative displacement of the two axes of the coupled shaft.

Mechanical parts used to connect two shafts (drive shaft and driven shaft) in different mechanisms to rotate together to transmit torque. In high-speed and heavy-duty power transmission, some couplings also cushion, dampen and improve the dynamic performance of the shaft system. The coupling consists of two halves, which are respectively connected to the driving shaft and the driven shaft. Most power machines are usually connected to the working machine by means of a coupling.
