Oldham coupler, it appears to be. The top image indicates the shafts are not in line with each other.

(I am hoping this isn't homework, I may have chimed in too quickly)

it is not oldham coupling.An Oldham coupling has three discs, one coupled to the input, one coupled to the output, and a middle disc that is joined to the first two.Fig is below

Yes, there are three discs shown in your image. It appears the shafts do not align. This is (appears to be, anyway) an application for an oldham coupler.

Do the input and output shafts align?

"...and in between them a spider is placed..." I can't imagine the spider is very happy about that!

Spider? As in jaw coupling?

I don't feel like playing twenty questions today. Somebody else will come along and play with you. Good luck.
