Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a flexible display, a first housing moving to correspond to change in a shape of the flexible display and including a contact region, a second housing sliding in a direction opposite to a direction in which the first housing moves of the first housing and to mount the flexible display, a rotary contact structure making contact with the contact region, and a printed circuit board (PCB) electrically connected with the at least one rotary contact structure. The at least one rotary contact structure includes a rotating part maintaining contact with the contact region while rotating in a process of changing a shape of the flexible display, a central part disposed inside the rotating part, a conductive member interposed between the rotating part and the central part, and a support part supporting the central part and electrically connecting the central part with the PCB.
