ABSTRACT:
A cable reel including a fixed member, a movable member rotatably engaged with the fixed member in such a manner that a space is defined between the fixed member and the movable member, a flat cable received in the space under a wound condition with predetermined turns and having opposite ends fixed to the fixed member and the movable member and extending outside, and a cutter provided in the vicinity of a fixed portion of the flat cable on the flat member side, wherein when the movable member is rotated by a predetermined amount or more, the flat cable is cut by the cutter. The improvement is that the flat cable comprises a first flat cable and a second flat cable attached to each other, and that a length from a fixed portion of the first flat cable on the movable member side to the cutter is different from a length from a fixed portion of the second flat cable on the movable member side to the cutter.
