To provide a protective guide for a retracting cable or the like to which excessive tension or stress is not imparted to a cable or the like during bending and extending or retracting operations operating a retracting unit in and out, and which does not need a troublesome securing operation for a cable or the like, and further which is excellent in even point of aesthetics. The present invention relates to a protective guide for a retracting cable or the like, which protects and guides a cable or the like extending between a case body 130 and a retracting unit 110 retractably accommodated in the case body. According to the present invention, the protective guide includes two linear tubular support members 140, which enclose the cable or the like to support it in a linear manner and a tubular bending member 120, which articulately connects said two linear support members 140 with a desired curvature or more.
A protective guide for a retracting cable or the like, which protects and guides a cable or the like trained between a case body and a retracting unit retractably accommodated in the case body, characterized in that said protective guide includes two linear support members, which enclose said cable or the like to support it in a linear manner and a bending member, which articulately connects said two linear support members for relative angular movement with a desired curvature without a sharp bend.
