Hinge connector suitable for use in a hinge portion included in an electronic device

摘要

A hinge connector includes a pair of tubular members. Each of the tubular members has a tubular section formed with a hollow portion, and a fitting section formed with a receiving space for receiving a counterpart connector. The tubular members are coupled with each other so as to be turnable relative to each other. The hinge connector further includes a flexible conductor. The flexible conductor has connect portions at its both ends and a flexible intermediate portion connecting the connect portions. The flexible intermediate portion of the conductor is turned and arranged in the hollow portions of the tubular sections, while the connect portions thereof are disposed in the corresponding receiving spaces of the fitting sections so as to be connected to the corresponding counterpart connectors, respectively.
