Folding-type electronic apparatus comprising two base members hinge-connected by a hinge connector with an FPC

An electronic apparatus comprising:

• a first base member for mounting a first electric element;
• a second base member for mounting a second electric element;
• a hinge element having a receptacle portion and connecting said first and said second base members so that said first and said second base members are rotatable around a predetermined axis with respect to each other;
• and
• a flexible conductor element electrically-connecting said first and said second electric elements to each other, said flexible conductor element having both end portions connected to said first and said second electric elements, respectively, and an intermediate portion located between said both end portions and received in said receptacle portion of said hinge element, said hinge element comprising:
• a first member held by said first base member;
• and
• a second member held by said second base member and rotatable around said predetermined axis with respect to said first member, said first and said second members having first and second holding parts for holding said flexible conductor element, respectively, said flexible conductor element having first and second engaging portions to be engaged with said first and said second holding parts, respectively;
• said electronic apparatus further comprising shielding layers extending along said flexible conductor element from said both end portions to said first and said second engaging portions, respectively, said first and said second members having conductive portions electrically connected to said shielding layers, respectively.
