Cable management apparatus

A cable management apparatus for managing a cable, the cable management apparatus comprising:

• a mounting bracket to receive the cable, and fix a rear end of the cable;
• a plurality of guiding members mounted to the mounting bracket;
• a sliding bar fixed to a front end of the cable, slidable forwards and rearwards relative to the mounting bracket, and defining a plurality of guiding slots, each of the guiding slots comprising a driving portion extending slantingly relative to a sliding direction of the sliding bar;
• and
• a plurality of rotating arms rotatably mounted to the mounting bracket, each of the rotating arms comprising a rod, the rod slidably engaged in a corresponding one of the guiding slots of the sliding bar;
• wherein each of the rotating arms is arranged between two neighboring guiding members to make the cable be sandwiched between the guiding members and the rotating arms;
• in response to the sliding bar sliding forwards, the rods slide along the driving portions of the corresponding guiding slots to rotate the corresponding rotating arms forwards to stretch the cable;
• in response to the sliding bar sliding rearwards, the rods slide in the driving portions of the corresponding guiding slots to rotate the corresponding rotating arms rearwards to wind up the cable.
