Description

[Description]
[Title of Invention]
FISHING REEL
[Technical Field]
The present disclosure relates to a fishing reel and, more particularly, to a fishing reel enabling a user to simply and easily change the rotation direction of a spool under drag force into desired directions from the outside of the reel body.
[Background Art]
A fishing reel is generally composed of a spool for winding/unwinding a fishing line, a reel body rotatably supporting the spool, and a drag for adjusting the rotation speed of the spool, can quickly wind a fishing line when the handle on a side of the spool is rotated and can reduce the speed of the fishing line that is unwound from the spool through the drag.
Several kinds of such fishing reels have been developed up to now. However, in fishing reels proposed up to now, it has been attempted to simply improve functions in relation to the connection structure between the spool and the reel body, the drag for adjusting the rotation speed of the spool, a structure for function switch of changing the rotation direction of the spool under drag force for left-handed users, and a structure for a generator and a stopper of a rotation sound or a drag sound of the spool. Accordingly, all of these devices cannot be efficiently arranged in a narrow space of any one of the reel body or the spool with mutual relation maintained, so the structure becomes very complicated and productivity is deteriorated.
Further, when a ratchet gear is disposed inside a spool or a reel body to change a drag force direction, a user has to separate a drag first, turn over the ratchet gear, and then fit it into the drag in order to change the mounting direction of the ratchet gear, if necessary, so the separation and assembly process is complicated and changing the direction of a drag force is not easy. Further, there is a problem that the shaft support portion corrodes later since there is a high possibility that water permeates into the internal mechanical structure in the process of changing the mounting direction, and reels may not be used during fishing in many cases since parts such as a washer or a snap ring spring out and are lost due to elasticity in a replacement process.
In relation to this problem, a fly reel has been disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-0613148.

The fly wheel disclosed in the above invention has the advantage that since a user has only to simply turn a screw outside a spindle housing in order to change the drag force direction, which depends on the rotation direction of a spool, in accordance with the user's condition, that is, whether the user is left-handed or right-handed, it is not required to separate a main spindle and a specific tool for separating the main spindle is also not needed, so it is possible to conveniently change the drag force direction. However, since it is required to separate the spool first from the reel body in order to change the drag force direction, it is impossible to prevent water from permeating into the drag. Further, the spool cannot be rotated in bi-direction and can be rotated only forward or backward, which is insufficient to satisfy various desires of users.
[Summary of Invention]
[Technical Problem]
The present disclosure has been made in an effort to solve the problems of fishing reels of the related art described above, and an objective of the present disclosure is to provide a fishing reel that enables a user to simply change the rotation direction of a spool into desired directions by only simply operating a lever outside a reel body even without separating the reel body and a spool.
Another objective of the present disclosure is to provide a fishing reel that enables a user to change the rotation direction of a spool not only in the forward direction and a backward direction, but in bi-direction when operating a lever outside a reel body.
[Solution to Problem]
In order to achieve the objectives, a fishing reel according to the present disclosure includes: a reel body having a center shaft coupled and fixed to a center thereof; a ratchet gear detachably and rotatably fitted on the center shaft; a spool rotatably coupled to the center shaft to wind or unwind a fishing line; a drag for adjusting a rotation speed of the spool by adjusting a contact state of the ratchet gear with a surface of the spool; and a direction selector for selecting a rotation direction of the ratchet gear into any one of a forward direction and a backward direction, and bi-direction, in which the direction selector has a selection lever for selecting the rotation direction of the ratchet gear, and the selection lever is exposed outside the reel body and the rotation direction of the ratchet gear is selected by operating the selection lever with the reel body and the spool coupled to each other.
2 It is preferable that the direction selector includes: a first pole for allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear in the opposite direction while in contact with the ratchet gear fitted on the center shaft; a second pole mounted at a side of the inner surface of the reel body at a predetermined distance from the first pole to allow for rotation of the ratchet gear in the opposite direction to the first pole and suppress rotation in the opposite direction while in contact with the ratchet gear fitted on the center shaft; and a cam unit allowing for only any one of the first pole or the second pole to come in contact with the ratchet gear or preventing both the first pole and the second pole from coming in contact with the ratchet gear, depending on operation of the selection lever.
It is preferable that the cam unit has: a first position where both the first pole and the second pole are prevented from coming in contact with the ratchet gear such that the ratchet gear can be rotated in bi-direction; a second position where the first pole is in contact with the ratchet gear and the second pole is not in contact with the ratchet gear, thereby allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear in the opposite direction; and a third position where the first pole is not in contact with the ratchet gear and the second pole is in contact with the ratchet gear such that rotation of the ratchet gear in one direction opposite to the first pole is allowed and rotation of the ratchet gear in the opposite direction is suppressed.
It is preferable that the first pole has: a link fitted on a side of an inner surface of the reel body to be shakable, thereby allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear in the opposite direction when coming in contact with the ratchet gear;
and a spring for elastically supporting shaking of the link, and the second pole has: a supporting screw coupled and fixed to a side of an inner surface of the real body; a link fitted on the supporting screw to be shakable, thereby allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear in the opposite direction when coming in contact with the ratchet gear; and a spring for elastically supporting shaking of the link.
It is preferable that the link has: a hole in which the supporting screw coupled and fixed to a side of the inner surface of the reel body is fitted; a cam contact portion extending from the hole toward the cam unit to be able to come in contact with the cam unit; and a locking portion extending from the hole in a direction different from the cam contact
3 portion to come in contact with or separate from the ratchet gear.
[Advantageous Effects of Invention]

[Description of Embodiments]
Preferred embodiments of a fishing reel according to the present disclosure are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A fishing reel according to the present disclosure relates to a function switch structure that enables a user to simply and easily change the rotation direction of a spool under drag into desired directions outside a reel body. As shown in FIGS. 1 to
4 3, the fishing reel includes a reel body 10, a ratchet gear 17, a spool 20, a drag, and a direction selector.
In the reel body 10, as shown in FIG. 3, a center shaft 11 is coupled and fixed to a hub (not shown) disposed at the center, a thread 12 for coupling a drag knob (not shown) is formed on the outer surface of the front end of the center shaft 11, and a hole 13 having a thread on the inner surface is formed in the cross-section of the front end in the longitudinal direction of the center shaft 11. A drag bolt (not shown) for preventing separation of the drag knob (not shown) is thread-fastened to the thread formed on the inner surface of the hole 13.
The ratchet gear 17, as shown in FIG. 3, is detachably and rotatably fitted on the center shaft 11 formed at the center of the inner surface of the reel body 10, has teeth 18, which can come in contact with a first pole 30 or a second pole 40, on the outer surface, and has a friction pad 19 on the surface of a side facing the spool 20.
The spool 20, which is rotatably coupled to the center shaft 11 to wind/unwind a fishing line, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, has a shaft hole 21 at the center that can be rotatably fitted on the center shaft 11 and has a handle 22 for winding/unwinding a fishing line on a side.
The drag is a device for adjusting or suppressing the rotation speed of the spool 20 by adjusting the contact state between the friction pad 19 attached to a surface of the ratchet gear 17 and a surface of the spool 20. When the drag knob (not shown) thread-fastened to the front end of the center shaft 11 is rotated with the ratchet gear 17 fitted on the center shaft 11 of the reel body 10 and the spool 20 fitted on the center shaft 11 of the reel body 10 with the ratchet gear 17 fitted thereon, the surface of the spool 20 comes in contact with the friction pad 19 attached to the surface of the ratchet gear 17 rotatably fitted on the outer surface of the center shaft 11 in accordance with the degree of rotation of the drag knob (not shown), and the rotation speed of the spool 20 is adjusted in accordance with the contact state between the friction pad 19 attached to the surface of the ratchet gear 17 and the surface of the spool 20.
The direction selector is a device for selecting the rotation direction of the ratchet gear 17 rotatably fitted on the center shaft 11 of the reel body 10 into any one of the forward direction and the backward direction, and bi-direction, and as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, includes a first pole 30, a second pole 40, a cam unit 50, and a selection lever 60.
The first pole 30, which is for allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in the opposite direction WHILE in contact with the ratchet gear 17 fitted on the center shaft 11 of the reel body 10, as shown in FIG. 3, includes a link 32 and a spring 33 for elastically supporting shaking of the link 32.
The link 32, which is a member allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in the opposite direction by being fitted to be shakable on a supporting screw 31 coupled and fixed to a side of the inner surface of the reel body 10, has a hole 34, in which the supporting screw 31 is fitted, cam contact portion 35, and a locking portion 36.
The cam contact portion 35, which is a portion being in contact with the cam unit 50, of the link 32 extends from the hole 34 toward the cam unit 50 to be able to come in contact with the cam unit 50 to be described below.
The locking portion 36, which is a portion coming in contact with or separating from the ratchet gear 17, of the link 32 extends from the hole 34 in a direction different from the cam contact portion 35. When the locking portion 36 comes in contact with the ratchet gear 17, the ratchet gear 17 is locked by the locking portion 36, whereby the ratchet gear 17 can rotate in one direction and cannot rotate in the opposite direction.
When the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 is locked to the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 by rotation of the cam unit 50 to be described below, the spring 33 applies elasticity in the direction in which the locking portion 36 returns to be in contact with the teeth 18 even if a force is applied in the direction in which the locking portion 36 separates from the teeth 18. Reference numeral '37' not stated above indicates a fixing bolt that fixes an end of the spring 33 and reference number '38' indicates a supporting protrusion for supporting the spring 33 between the fixing bolt 37 and the locking portion 36.
The second pole 40, which is mounted at a side of the inner surface of the reel body 10 at a predetermined distance from the first pole 30 to allow for rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in the opposite direction to the first pole 30 and suppress rotation in the opposite direction while in contact with the ratchet gear 17 fitted on the center shaft 11, has the same configuration as the first pole 30 except for a difference in location. Reference numerals, not stated above, '41' indicates a supporting screw, '42' indicates a link allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in the opposite direction when it is fitted to be shakable at a side of the inner surface of the reel body 10 to be in contact with the ratchet gear 17, '43' indicates a spring for elastically supporting shaking of the link 42, '44' indicates a hole for fitting the link 42 to be shakable, '45' indicates a cam contact portion, '46' indicates a locking portion, and '48' indicates a supporting protrusion.
The cam unit 50, which is a part that allows for only any one of the first pole 30 or the second pole 40 to come in contact with the ratchet gear 17, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 9, or prevents both the first pole 30 and the second pole 40 from coming in contact with the ratchet gear 17, as shown in FIG. 5, depending on operation of the selection lever 60 to be described below, has any one position of a first position shown in FIG. 5, a second position shown in FIG. 7, and a third position shown in FIG. 9, depending on operation of the selection lever 60, and has an oblong hole at the center in which a lever shaft 61 of the selection lever 60 can be fitted. Reference numeral '52' not stated above indicates a spring for elastically supporting the cam unit 50.
The first position, as shown in FIG. 5, is a position where both the first pole 30 and the second pole 40 are prevented from coming in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 such that the ratchet gear 17 can be rotated in bi-direction. The cam contact portion 35 of the first pole 30 and the cam contact portion 45 of the second pole 40 are both in contact with the cam unit 50 at the first position. In this case, the locking portions 36 and 46 of the first pole 30 and the second pole 40 are not in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 even though they are elastically supported by the springs 33 and 43, respectively, so the ratchet gear 17 can be rotated in bi-direction.
The second position is a position where the first pole 30 is in contact with the ratchet gear 17 and the second pole 40 is not in contact with the ratchet gear 17, thereby allowing for rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in one direction and suppressing rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in the opposite direction. At the second position, when the cam unit 50 is rotated counterclockwise (shown by an indicator 61 in FIG. 6) from the first position shown in FIG. 5, the cam contact portion 45 of the second pole 40 maintains its position without moving even though the cam unit 50 is rotated, but when the cam unit 50 is rotated, the cam contact portion 35 of the first pole 30 is rotated counterclockwise around the supporting screw 31 with rotation of the cam unit 50. Accordingly, the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 also rotates counterclockwise and comes in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17. Thereafter, the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 is maintained in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 by the elasticity of the spring 33. Accordingly, when the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 comes in contact with the ratchet gear 17 and the ratchet gear 17 is rotated counterclockwise, the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 applies force to the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30, and the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 is temporarily moved backward against the elasticity of the spring 33 such that the ratchet gear 17 is rotated, and returns to be in contact with the ratchet gear 17 by the elasticity of the spring 33, and which is repeated. Therefore, the ratchet gear 17 can be continuously rotated counterclockwise. However, in order to rotate the ratchet gear 17 clockwise, when the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 first applies force to the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30, the force is transmitted to the cam contact portion 35 of the first pole 30, but the cam contact portion 35 comes in contact with the cam unit 50, so it cannot be rotated further. As a result, the ratchet gear 17 cannot be rotated clockwise.
The third position, as shown in FIG. 9, is for preventing the first pole 30 from coming in contact with the ratchet gear 17 and allowing the second pole 40 to come in contact with the ratchet gear 17 such that rotation of the ratchet gear 17 in one direction opposite to the first pole 30 is allowed and rotation in the opposite direction is suppressed, which is different from the first pole 30 only in that the rotation direction of the ratchet gear 17 is different, but the function is the same, so it is not described.
The selection lever 60, which is a lever for selecting the rotation direction of the ratchet gear 17 into any one of the forward direction and the backward direction, and bi-direction, as shown in FIG. 2, is exposed outside the reel body 10 and is fastened to the cam unit 50 rotatably mounted on the inner surface of the reel body 10 through a hole formed at the reel body 10. When the selection lever 60 is positioned at the center, as shown in FIG. 4, the cam unit 50 is positioned at the first position, so the ratchet gear 17 can be rotated in bi-direction. When the selection lever 60 is rotated clockwise and the cam unit 50 is positioned at the second position, as shown in FIG. 5, the ratchet gear 17 can rotate counterclockwise, but cannot rotate clockwise. Accordingly, when the selection lever 60 is operated outside the reel body 10 with the reel body 10 and the spool coupled to each other, the cam unit 50 is rotated in accordance with the operation direction of the selection lever 60 and it is possible to conveniently and simply select the rotation direction of the ratchet gear 17 in accordance with the rotation direction of the cam unit 50. Accordingly, there is no need for a process of separating the spool 20 from the reel body 10 to change the rotation direction of the ratchet gear 17 as in the related art. Reference number '61' not stated above indicates an indicator that shows the position of the selection lever 60, and reference numeral '62' not stated above indicates a lever shaft that is fitted in the hole formed at the center of the cam unit 50. A fixing bolt (not shown) for preventing separation of the lever shaft 62 is coupled to the center of the lever shaft 62.
The operation of the fishing reel according to a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure is described hereafter.
According to the fishing reel of the present disclosure, a user can conveniently set the rotation direction of the spool 20 such that the spool can be rotated in any desired direction by operating the selection lever 60 exposed on the outer surface of the reel body 10. To this end, when the selection lever 60 exposed on the outer surface of the reel body 10 is vertically positioned, as shown in FIG. 4, both the first pole 30 and the second pole 40 are not in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 on the inner surface of the reel body 10, as shown in FIG. 5. In this state, since the ratchet gear 17 can be rotated both clockwise or counterclockwise, the spool 20 being in contact with the ratchet gear 17 under friction can also be rotated both clockwise or counterclockwise.
When a user rotates the selection lever 60 exposed on the outer surface of the reel body 10 clockwise in this state (the indicator 61 is positioned at the left), as shown in FIG. 6, the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 comes in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 but the second pole 40 does not come in contact with the 18 of the ratchet gear 17 on the inner surface of the reel body 10, as shown in FIG. 7. In this state, when the ratchet gear 17 is rotated counterclockwise, even though the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 is temporarily moved backward against the elasticity of the spring 33 by rotation force of the ratchet gear 17, the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30 is locked again to the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 by the elasticity of the spring 33. The ratchet gear 17 can be rotated counterclockwise while the locking portion 36 is repeatedly moved backward and locked in this way.
However, in order to rotate clockwise the ratchet gear 17 being in contact with the spool 20 under friction by rotating the spool 20, when the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 first applies force to the locking portion 36 of the first pole 30, the force is transmitted to the cam contact portion 35 of the first pole 30, but the cam contact portion 35 comes in contact with the cam unit 50, so it cannot be rotated further, whereby the ratchet gear 17 cannot be rotated by being locked to the locking portion 36. As a result, the ratchet gear 17 cannot be rotated clockwise.

Further, when a user rotates counterclockwise the selection lever 60 exposed on the outer surface of the reel body 10, as shown in FIG. 8, the locking portion 46 of the second pole 40 comes in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 but the first pole 30 does not come in contact with the teeth 18 of the ratchet gear 17 on the inner surface of the reel body 10, as shown in FIG. 9, whereby, in this state, the ratchet gear 17 can be rotated clockwise but cannot be rotated in counterclockwise.
Therefore, according to the fishing reel of the present disclosure, a user can conveniently rotate the spool 20 in any desired direction by operating the selection lever 60 exposed on the outer surface of the reel body 10. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the problem that water easily permeates into the internal mechanical structure in the process of separating the spool 20 from the reel body 10 to change the rotation direction of the ratchet gear 17 as in the related art. Further, a user can simply and conveniently change the rotation direction into any desired direction, that is, both the forward and backward direction and bi-direction by simply operating the selection lever 60 positioned outside the reel body 10.
Although a fishing reel of the present disclosure is described with reference to the exemplary drawings, it is apparent that the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments and drawings in the specification and may be modified in various ways by those skilled in the art within the range of the spirit of the present disclosure.
[Industrial Applicability]
According to the fishing reel of the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a fishing reel that enables a user to simply change the rotation direction of a spool in desired directions by only simply operating a lever outside a reel body even without separating the reel body and the spool.
