Abstract
According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a first wall, a second wall, a moving portion, a flexible cable, and a first contact portion. The moving portion is located between the first wall and the second wall. The cable comprises a curving portion between the first wall and the second wall, a first portion brought into contact with the first wall, and a second portion brought into contact with the second wall. The first contact portion is provided on the first wall and is in contact with the first portion of the cable. The cable can slide more smoothly on the first contact portion than on the second wall.

An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a first wall;
- a second wall facing the first wall;
- a moving portion between the first wall and the second wall, configured to move along the first wall and the second wall;
- a flexible cable comprising an arcuate curving portion between the first wall and the second wall, a first portion which is continuous from one of end portions of the curving portion, fixed on the moving portion, and brought into contact with the first wall, and a second portion which is continuous from the other end portion of the curving portion, fixed on the second wall, and brought into contact with the second wall, the flexible cable being moved such that the first portion becomes longer and the second portion becomes shorter, or such that the first portion becomes shorter and the second portion becomes longer, due to the movement of the moving portion;
- and
- a first contact portion on the first wall and in contact with the first portion of the cable, on which the cable slides more smoothly than on the second wall.
