Abstract

An assembly that includes a rotating component and flexible coupling. The flexible coupling includes a flexible torque disc having a first plurality of fixing points so that it can be mounted upon a first rotatable component, in use, and a second plurality of fixing points so that it can be mounted upon a second rotatable component, in use. The coupling also includes a support ring, and mounting means so that the flexible torque disc is secured to the support ring. The mounting means restrict deflection of the flexible torque disc relative to the support ring.
