Abstract
A rotating mechanism and a foldable electronic device is provided. The rotating mechanism includes a fixed base, a flexible support member, a first rotating member, and a second rotating member. A first rotating body of the first rotating member is installed in a first rotating groove of the fixed base and is slidable along the first rotating groove. When the first rotating body rotates relative to the fixed base along the first rotating groove, the flexible support member is driven to bend or unfold. A second rotating body is installed in a second rotating groove of the fixed base and is slidable along the second rotating groove. When the second rotating body rotates relative to the fixed base along the second rotating groove, the flexible support member is driven to bend or unfold.
