To provide an epoch-making slide apparatus and an electronic equipment using the same which secures a big slide amount, prevents thickness of an elastic portion from being increased, is easily manufactured, and is excellent in mass-productivity and in a production cost.

The slide apparatus is constituted so as to apply an energizing force to a slide direction between a first member 1 and a second member 2 by energizing an elastic force of the elastic portion 4 connecting one end and the other end respectively to the first member 1 and the second member 2 which are freely slidable. The elastic portion 4 has a plurality of spring wires 4A of a prescribed bent linear shape having a bow-shaped bending portion which is freely-elastically deformed in a bow shape, couples each one end of the plural spring wires 4A to the first member 1 through a first coupling portion 5, and couples each of the other ends of the plural spring wires 4A to the second member 2 through a second coupling portion 6 so that the plural spring wires 4A are arranged in parallel and to the slide direction between the first member 1 and the second member 2 in a bending-deformed state against its own elasticity.
