ABSTRACT:
A rotary connector device includes a stator, a rotor rotatably fitted to the stator, a cable chamber surrounded by the stator and the rotor and also formed around a rotating center of the rotor circumferentially, a flexible flat cable accommodated in the cable chamber so as to allow rotating of the rotor in relation to the stator, the cable having one end led to the stator and another end led to the rotor, and a slip ring mechanism having two conductive rings fixed to the stator and two sliding terminals fixed to the rotor. The stator has a stationary top face part formed so as to cover an upside of the cable chamber, while the rotor has a rotary top face part formed so as to adjoin the stationary top face part of the stator. The slip ring mechanism is arranged in a clearance between the stationary top face part of the stator and the rotary top face part of the rotor.
