Abstract
A vibration-absorbing coupler (A) which is capable of suppressing the torsional vibration of the transmission shaft () and also capable of enhancing the durability thereof is disclosed. This vibration-absorbing coupler (A) is featured in that the rotation of an output shaft () of an internal combustion engine () is enabled to transmit to a transmission shaft () through a torsion coil spring (A) and torsional vibration of the transmission shaft () is enabled to be absorbed by the torsion coil spring (A). The vibration-absorbing coupler (A) further includes a regulator (A) for regulating the rotation of the torsion coil spring (A) so as not to allow it to twist more than a predetermined angle.
