The second fixing portion 204 is slightly L-shaped. The bent portion 206 is slightly Y-shaped, and has a main portion 206a and two branch portions 206b. The two-branch portion 206b is connected to the first fixing portion 202. The trunk portion 206a is connected to the second fixing portion 204. The width w1 of the trunk portion 206a is smaller than the gap s of the two branch portions 206b. Preferably, the bending part 2066 paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) 522763 8648twf.doc / 0 1 2 A / B7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Description of the Invention (Γ) ^ is composed of two single-layer plates, and the first fixing portion 202 and the first fixing unit 204 are composed of a double-layer plate. As shown in FIG. 2, before the flexible substrate 200 is connected to the foldable electronic device, a connector 208 needs to be provided at the end of the second fixing portion 204 of the flexible substrate 200 and the end of the first fixing portion 202 The driving circuit 210 is set. Please refer to FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, which are three-dimensional schematic diagrams of assembling the flexible substrate of the present invention in a folding electronic device. Please refer to FIG. 5 first. The foldable electronic device has two shaft fixing portions (folding portions). The first shaft fixing portion 212 and the second shaft fixing portion 214 ′ are connected to each other in a rotatable manner. When the flexible substrate 200 is to be assembled in the folding electronic device, as shown in FIG. 3, the second fixing portion 204 of the flexible substrate 200 is passed through the second rotating shaft fixing portion 214 of the folding electronic device, and the first fixing portion is fixed. The portion 202 is fixed to the second rotating shaft fixing portion 214. As shown in Fig. 4, the second fixing portion 204 is bent and the main portion 206a of the bent portion 206 is bent through the gap s of the two branch portions 206b. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the second fixing portion 204 is fixed to the first rotating shaft fixing portion 212 of the folding electronic device by the connector 208, and the first rotating shaft fixing portion 212 and the first rotating portion of the folding electronic device are fixed by the connector 208. The mutual rotation between the two rotating shaft fixing portions 214 enables the folding electronic device to generate repeated opening and closing actions. At this time, since the width of the trunk portion 206a is smaller than the gap s of the second branch portion 206b (as shown in Fig. 1), it is possible to avoid the friction between the bent trunk portion 206a and the second branch portion 206b. 7 This paper uses the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 scale (210X297 mm). --- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Order 522763 8648twt.doc / 012 A7 B7 Ministry of Economic Affairs印 Printed by the Bureau of Standardization, Shellfish Consumer Cooperatives 5. Description of the invention (厶) Please also refer to FIG. 6, which is viewed from another perspective when the flexible substrate 200 is assembled on the second rotating shaft fixing portion 214 of the folding electronic device. A perspective view of the bent portion 206 of the substrate 200 in a bent state. In order to understand the bending method of the flexible board of the present invention, please refer to FIGS. 7 to 9 at the same time. Among them, FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate a flexible substrate according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. A three-dimensional view of the stomach in a folded state, and FIG. 9 is a side view of a flexible substrate in a bent state according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 at the same time, the trunk portion 206a of the bending portion 206 is bent through the gap s of the two branch portions 206b, and passes through the gap s of the two branch portions 206b after one turn. 7 and 8 show the bending state of the flexible substrate 200 from different viewing angles. Please refer to FIG. 9 at the same time. From this side view, the bending method of the flexible substrate of the present invention can be seen clearly: the second fixing portion 204 is bent and the main portion 206a of the bending portion 206 is bent. Pass through the gap s of the two branch portions 206b, and then pass through the gap s ° of the two branch portions 206b after one turn. According to the characteristics of the present invention, since the width of the trunk portion is smaller than the gap of the two branch portions, the folding can be avoided. The main part of the bend rubbed against the two branches. The above-mentioned slightly Y-shaped bent portion 206 is only an example. According to the spirit of the present invention, the bent portion of the flexible substrate of the present invention is not limited to the slightly Y-shaped shape in the above embodiment. For example, an opening may be formed in the bending portion connecting the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion, and the opening is from the connection point of the bending portion and the first fixing portion toward the bending portion and the second fixing portion. The connection extends. By making the width of the second fixing part smaller than the narrowest part of the width of the opening, it is possible to avoid the first notice.

The non-bending second fixing portion rubs against the side wall of the opening at the bend. According to this feature, since the width of the second fixing portion is made smaller than the narrowest portion of the width of the opening, it is possible to avoid friction between the bent second fixing portion and the side wall of the opening at the bending portion. According to the spirit of the present invention, it can be known that the flexible substrate of the present invention can be applied to various types of foldable electronic devices', including, for example, a foldable mobile phone, a palmtop computer, a personal digital assistant, an electronic dictionary, and the like. As long as the electronic device is folded by the rotation method, the flexible substrate of the present invention can be used to achieve the circuit connection of its folded parts. According to the embodiments of the present invention, it can be known that the present invention has at least the following advantages: (1) The flexible substrate of the present invention, by bending the second fixing portion, and bending the trunk portion of the bent portion to pass through the loop After passing through the gap between the two branch portions, it can reduce the situation that the second fixing portion is repeatedly pulled due to the opening and closing action when it is applied to the folding electronic device. Therefore, the problem that the conventional flexible printed circuit board is easily broken at the bend or the wiring is easily broken can be improved. (2) · Similarly as in (1), the flexible substrate of the present invention can avoid the fatigue of elasticity at the bend due to repeated opening and closing actions when the conventional flexible printed circuit board is applied to a folding electronic device. question.
