Rotatable connector device
A rotatable connector device includes a stationary member, a rotatable member rotatably attached thereto, and a flat cable housed in an annular space between the stationary and rotatable members. One end of the flat cable is connected to a stationary-side connector fixed to the stationary member, and another end of the flat cable is connected to a rotating-side connector fixed to the rotatable member. The flat cable includes a folded-back portion bent and folded back at a middle section in a longitudinal direction thereof. The flat cable includes a predetermined number of conductor/conductors each comprising a copper alloy and wound up or rewound with bending kept at the folded-back portion. Each conductor satisfies Y14.175X.sup.2249.35X+1406.9 for a bending radius of 4 to 8 mm, where X denotes bending radius, and Y denotes 0.2% yield stress, and has an electrical conductivity of 50% IACS or greater.
Mobile apparatus
An electronic apparatus comprises a first body including a keyboard and an adaptor having protrusions and a second body including a display and a frame having recesses to receive the protrusions of the adaptor. The adaptor includes a first magnetic structure, a second magnetic structure, and a first electric contact portion disposed between the first and second magnetic structure.
