Image processing device

An image reading processor comprising:

• a first unit;
• a second unit attached to the first unit via a hinge so as to be rotatable relative to the first unit around a rotational axis, at least one of the first unit and the second unit containing one of an image reading unit configured read an image from an object to be read and an image forming unit configured to form an image on a recording medium;
• a plurality of flat cables configured to connect electrical elements disposed in the first unit with electrical elements disposed in the second unit;
• and
• a guide member having a plurality of wiring paths each defined between two of a plurality of separation walls, the guide member being configured to guide, from one to another of the first and second units, the plurality of flat cables laid through the plurality of wiring paths, respectively, at least one of the plurality of separation walls comprising a curving wall curved to surround the rotational axis, at least one of the plurality of flat cables being guided to have:
• a curving section that curves along the curving wall;
• a first extension that extends continuously from the curving section to the first unit;
• and
• a second extension that extends continuously from the curving section to the second unit,
• wherein the guide member comprises a side cover formed to face the curving wall in a direction substantially perpendicular to an extending direction and a thickness direction of the plurality of flat cables.

An electronic device comprising:

• a first unit configured to accommodate a controller;
• a second unit attached to the first unit via a hinge so as to be rotatable relative to the first unit around a rotational axis, the second unit being configured to accommodate a plurality of electronic components;
• a plurality of cables configured to connect the controller disposed in the first unit with the plurality of electronic components disposed in the second unit;
• and
• a guide member having a plurality of wiring paths each defined between two of a plurality of separation walls, the guide member being configured to guide, from one to another of the first and second units, the plurality of cables laid through the plurality of wiring paths, respectively, the guide member comprising:
• a curving portion curved to protrude outward and surround the rotational axis;
• and
• a side portion configured to face the curving portion in a direction along the rotational axis and cover the plurality of cables,
• wherein at least one of the plurality of cables being guided to have:
• a curving section that curves along the curving portion, inside the guide member;
• a first extension that extends continuously from the curving section to the first unit;
• and
• a second extension that extends continuously from the curving section to the second unit, and
• wherein the curving portion of the guide member is curved to protrude opposite to a direction toward the controller, relative to the first extension and the second extension.
