Abstract
A plurality of wound portions are formed on a wiring cable to be arranged in a two-axis hinge that connects two casings. Winding directions of the wound portions which are adjacent are set opposite to each other. In a foldable electronic device in which two casings are pivotally connected to each other through a two-axis hinge having two pivot shafts, the wiring cable is arranged in the two-axis hinge. One wound portion of the wiring cable is wound around one pivot shaft of the two-axis hinge. The other wound portion of the wiring cable is wound around the other pivot shaft of the two-axis hinge.
