Abstract
A flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) connection mechanism of the present invention includes a first connector which is connected to one end of a first FPCB and a second connector which rotatably coupled with the first connector and is connected to one end of a second FPCB. The FPCB connection mechanism of the present invention provides a mechanical and electrical connection between the main body and the cover body of the handset without twisting of two FPCBs that are respectively connected to the main PCB of the main body and the auxiliary PCB of the cover body so to avoid the physical damage of the FPCBs caused by frequent rotational movement of the cover body in relation to the main body and prevent the physical damages of FPCBs from changing the circuitry resistances or shorting the circuitry.
