Abstract:
Aspects of the present invention relate to providing a rotary connector device capable of suppressing the entry of foreign matter into a housing space through a portion corresponding to a locking unit in an opposing portion between a stationary side ring plate and an outer peripheral cylindrical portion. A rotator ( 10 ), which is configured by an annular top plate ( 11 ) and a cylindrically shaped inner peripheral portion ( 12 ), and a stator ( 20 ), which is configured by assembling an annular stator main body ( 21 ) and a cylindrically shaped sub stator ( 22 ), are assembled to be relatively rotatable in both a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction. An SRC ( 1 ) that houses a flat cable (F) being wound inside of a housing space (S) formed therein is provided with a stator locking portion ( 23 ) that enables a frame-shaped locking portion ( 231 ) that extends from the stator main body ( 21 ) to lock with a protruding locking portion ( 232 ) that is formed on the sub stator ( 22 ); and a recess-protrusion fitting portion ( 25 ) that suppresses the entry of foreign matter into the housing space (S). The recess-protrusion fitting portion ( 25 ) is disposed on an opposing portion ( 24 ) that corresponds to the stator locking portion ( 23 ).

Claim (Index 6):
The rotary connector device according to  claim 5 , wherein\n a stationary recess is formed on each opposing surface of the stationary side ring plate and the outer peripheral cylindrical portion; and the blocking member is configured by a stationary blocking member being fixed to both of the stationary recesses straddling the opposing portion in the axial direction.
