ABSTRACT:
A rotary connector which comprises a rotating case and a stationary case combined for rotation and defining an annular space therein, a flexible flat cable housed in the form of a spiral in the annular space, and a fixing member for regulating the relative rotation of the two cases. The fixing member is removably mounted extending between mounting portions formed individually on the cases, the flat cable tightening and loosening so that the rotating case is allowed to rotate relatively to the stationary case. The fixing member is provided integrally with an indicating portion for restraining the fixing member from being disengaged from the mounting portions and indicating the release of the cases from fixation by being fractured or deformed by a predetermined stress which forces the fixing member to be disengaged from the mounting portions.
