A power supply device includes: a rotary member that holds a wire harness inserted therethrough; and a support member that swingably supports the rotary member and is fixed to a fixed structure body or a sliding structure body, wherein the rotary member has an annular outer peripheral wall and a harness lead-out portion, the support member has one sidewall disposed along the outer peripheral wall, and the harness lead-out portion moves in a direction away from the sidewall when the sliding structure body is fully opened, the outer peripheral wall is widely exposed between the harness lead-out portion and the sidewall, and the outer peripheral wall and the sidewall are overlapped with each other in a plate thickness direction in a state where the outer peripheral wall is widely exposed and come in contact with each other so as to avoid an entry of foreign matters therebetween.

Power supply device

The present invention is to prevent sand or water from adhering to a spring member biasing a rotary member of a power supply device and thus cause the power supply device to smoothly and reliably perform a biasing operation of the rotary member over a long period. Provided is a protection structure for a spring member of power supply devices including: base members; cover members provided integrally with or separately from the base members; rotary members supported swingably by the base members and the cover members and leads out and holds a wire harness; and annular spring members biasing the rotary members in any one of swing directions, wherein the spring members are housed inside the cover members so that foreign matters are prevented from adhering to the spring member from the outside.
