<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To bring a cable guide member housed in a cable reel into contact with a flat cable without imposing a load on the flat cable in winding up and winding back the flat cable. <P>SOLUTION: A cable guide member 18 of this cable reel is formed by combining a pair of frame members 18A and 18B with each other; each frame member comprises an inside frame 18c, an outside frame 18b, an arc frame 18a for connecting longitudinal one-side ends of the inside frame 18c and the outside frame 18b, and a connecting open end at the longitudinal other-side end; evagination parts 18d evaginating outward are formed at the connecting open end of the one-side frame member 18A, pressed in the connecting open end of the other-side frame member 18B, and connected by energizing the other-side connecting open end and by forming a sprig part A. The spring part A is expanded and contracted according to tensile force of the flat cable installed along the outside frame 18b and the inside frame 18c of the guide member 18 to always tightly fit the guide member 18 to the flat cable. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
