ABSTRACT:
A clock spring interconnector for electrically connecting a fixed member and a movable member by use of a flexible cable. The clock spring interconnector provides a connector piece at the center of the interconnector which accommodates an eccentric motion between a rotating steering shaft and the fixed periphery of the interconnector by engaging a projection with a recess on pieces mounted to the stationary periphery and to the steering shaft respectively, while transmitting the rotational movement of the steering shaft to the movable piece of the interconnector and while keeping the gap between adjacent rotating pieces small.
