Description

Display device of electric fishing reel

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a display device for a fishing reel, and more particularly, to a display device for an electric fishing reel in which a spool around which a fishing line is wound is rotated by a rotation operation of a handle and a motor.

Background

An electric reel for rotating a spool at least in a winding direction by a motor is mainly used for capturing a prey living in a deep water depth.

Generally, an electric reel is provided with an adjustment member for adjusting the output of a motor. For example, patent document 1 discloses an electric reel including: a winding speed detecting mechanism for detecting a winding speed when a winding operation of winding a fishing line on a winding reel is performed; and a display unit provided in the reel unit for displaying a detection value of the winding speed detection unit and a motor output state corresponding to an adjustment amount of the motor output adjustment unit, wherein the electric reel is capable of recognizing a change in the rotation speed of the winding reel due to a change in the motor output state adjusted by the motor output adjustment unit and a load (a change in the load due to a change in the size, type, number, pulling state, ocean current, wave speed, etc.) of the fish.

[ patent document 1 ] specification of Japanese patent application No. 4824061

However, although the electric reel according to the related art can grasp the state of change in the motor output and the actual winding speed during the line-winding operation after the hunting of a prey, the "attracting operation" which is the operation for hooking the prey is important during the actual fishing.

For example, in the process of performing an attracting action for fishing a prey such as a snapper, an attracting action of moving the hook unit at a constant speed is performed, and if the moving speed of the hook unit changes or the like, the fish may consider the action of the hook unit to be suspicious, and thus the fish may see through the attracting action, and may not catch the fish.

If the attracting operation is performed by electrically winding the spool (winding the spool by a motor) on the electric reel, it is difficult to perform an operation of keeping the rotational speed of the spool constant due to the rolling of the boat, the change in the speed at the time of starting the motor, the direction and change of the ocean current, the change of the load, and the like.

However, in the electric reel according to the related art, the displayed rotation speed of the spool is not easy to understand because the speed generated by the electric winding is mixed or the speed display is complicated, and thus the rotation speed of the spool when the manual winding is performed is not easy to recognize. Therefore, it is difficult to keep the rotational speed of the spool constant in the attracting action of the manual winding.

Disclosure of Invention

In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to focus on an attracting operation by manually winding a thread and to enable the attracting operation to be easily performed by manually winding the thread.

The display device of the electric fishing reel according to the present invention is a display device of an electric fishing reel that rotates a fishing reel on which a fishing line is wound by a rotation operation of a handle and a motor. The display device of the electric fishing reel is provided with an adjusting component, a winding reel speed detecting part, an output display part and a display control part. The adjusting component can adjust the output of the motor; the winding reel speed detection part is used for detecting the rotating speed of the winding reel; an output display part for displaying output information related to the output of the motor adjusted by the adjusting component and speed information related to the rotating speed of the winding reel detected by the winding reel speed detecting part; the display control unit displays output information on the output display unit when the spool is rotated by the motor, and displays speed information on the output display unit when the spool is rotated only by a rotational operation of the handle.

In the display device of the electric fishing reel, when the winding reel is rotated by the motor according to the operation of the adjusting component, the output information of the motor is displayed on the output display part. When the spool is rotated only by the rotational operation of the handle, speed information relating to the rotational speed of the spool detected by the spool speed detecting section is displayed on the output display section. In the display device of the electric fishing reel, speed information is displayed on the output display part only when the winding reel is rotated by the rotating operation of the handle. Therefore, when the attracting action of the manual winding is performed, the speed information related to the rotation speed of the winding reel is displayed. Therefore, the speed information of the manual winding can be easily identified, the rotation speed of the winding reel can be restrained from changing, and the attracting action of the manual winding can be easily performed.

The display device of the electric fishing reel according to the present invention may further include a motor output detection unit that detects that the spool is not rotated by the motor. When the motor output detection part detects that the winding reel is not driven to rotate by the motor, the display control part switches the display on the output display part from the output information to the speed information. In this case, the output information and the speed information displayed on the output display unit are switched according to the detection of whether the spool is rotated by the motor, so that it is not necessary to separately provide an output display unit, and it is possible to reduce the size of the electric reel. In addition, since the display of the output display unit can be simplified, the visual effect can be improved.

In the display device of the electric fishing reel according to the present invention, the output display unit may include an identification display unit for identifying whether the spool is rotated by the rotation of the motor or the handle. In this case, by observing the identification display portion, the user (fisher) can easily identify whether the information displayed on the output display portion is the output information of the motor or the speed information of the manual winding.

When the motor output is adjusted to be approximately 0 by operating the adjusting component, the motor output detection part can also judge that the winding drum is not driven by the motor to rotate. In this case, when the motor output is substantially 0 by operating the adjustment member, it is determined that the take-up drum is not rotated by the motor, and therefore, the motor can be easily detected as being in a stopped state by a state of a sensor or a switch or the like that detects the adjustment amount of the adjustment member.

In the display device for an electric reel according to the present invention, the adjustment member may adjust the motor output between a plurality of levels including the level 0, the motor output at the level 0 is adjusted to substantially 0 by the operation, and the display control unit may display the level of the adjustment member on the output display unit as the output information of the motor. In this case, since the output information of the motor is displayed by the level of the adjusting part, the adjusting level of the motor can be easily judged.

The display device of the electric reel according to the present invention may further include a storage unit for storing a plurality of levels of information on the number of rotations of the spool in accordance with the motor outputs of the plurality of levels. When the winding reel is rotated only by the rotating operation of the handle, the display control part compares the speed information with the level information stored in the storage part, and displays the level information which is the same as or most similar to the speed information detected by the winding reel speed detection part on the output display part according to the comparison result. In this case, the speed information at the time of manual winding is represented by the level information of the output information at the time of driving the motor. Therefore, the attracting action of the manual winding wire can be recognized according to the relation between the motor output information and the winding speed when the motor winds the wire, and the attracting action can be more easily performed by the manual winding wire.

According to the invention, the speed information is displayed on the output display part only when the winding reel rotates through the rotation operation of the handle. Therefore, when the attracting action is performed by manually winding the thread, the speed information related to the rotation speed of the thread winding reel is displayed. This makes it possible to easily recognize the speed information of the manual winding wire and to easily perform the attracting operation of the manual winding wire.

Detailed Description

Integral structure of fishing reel

In fig. 1 and 2, the electric reel 100 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention is a small-sized electric reel that is driven by electric power from an external power source and can be used as a manual-winding-type dual-bearing reel. The electric reel 100 has a water depth display function for displaying the water depth at which the hook assembly is positioned, based on the line release length or the line winding length. Further, the electric reel 100 has an internal power source for driving a water depth display function when the electric reel 100 is used as a manual-winding type dual-bearing reel without an external power source.

The electric reel 100 is attachable to a fishing rod, and includes a reel unit 1, a handle 2, a display unit 4 for displaying the depth of water in which a hook unit is located, a spool 10, a clutch operating member 11, a motor 12 (see fig. 4), and a control system 40 (see fig. 4) for controlling the electric reel 100. The motor 12 is disposed in the reel unit 1.

The reel unit 1 includes a frame 7, a 1 st side cover 8a, a 2 nd side cover 8b, and a front cover 9. The frame 7 is, for example, a member integrally formed of synthetic resin or metal. The frame 7 has a 1 st side plate 7a and a 2 nd side plate 7 b. The 1 st side plate 7a and the 2 nd side plate 7b are integrally formed by a plurality of coupling members not shown. The 2 nd side plate 7b and the 1 st side plate 7a are arranged with a gap in the left-right direction (left-right direction on the paper surface of fig. 2). The 1 st side cover 8a covers the handle 2 attachment side on the frame 7. The 2 nd side cover 8b covers the side of the frame 7 opposite to the side where the handle 2 is mounted. The front cover 9 covers the front of the frame 7.

The handle 2 is provided on the reel unit 1 on the 1 st side cover 8a side and is rotatable. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the handle 2 includes a handle arm 2a and a handle grip 2b attached to a tip end of the handle arm 2 a. The handle 2 is attached to the 1 st side plate 7a side. The handle 2 is connected to a driving shaft (not shown) rotatably supported by the reel unit 1 and is rotatable together with the driving shaft.

The spool 10 is rotatably supported by the reel unit 1 between the 1 st side plate 7a and the 2 nd side plate 7 b. The clutch operating member 11 is provided at the rear portion of the reel unit 1 and is movable for engaging and disengaging a clutch mechanism (not shown). The clutch mechanism can be switched between a clutch engaged state and a clutch disengaged state by the operation of the clutch operating member 11. The clutch engaged state is a state in which the rotation of the handle 2 and the driving force of the motor 12 can be transmitted to the spool 10, and the clutch disengaged state is a state in which the rotation of the handle 2 and the driving force of the motor 12 cannot be transmitted to the spool 10. When the clutch release mechanism is switched to the clutch release state, the spool 10 can be freely rotated, and the fishing line can be paid out from the spool 10. The motor 12 is provided in the reel unit 1 and drives the spool 10 to rotate. A spool driving mechanism (not shown) is provided in the reel unit 1, and rotates the spool shaft 10 in conjunction with the rotation of the handle 2 and the motor 12. The rotation of the handle 2 is transmitted to the spool 10 through the spool driving mechanism and the clutch mechanism. The rotation of the motor 12 is also transmitted to the spool 10 through the spool driving mechanism and the clutch mechanism. When the clutch mechanism is in the clutch engaged state, the spool 10 is prohibited from rotating in the line unwinding direction by a one-way clutch (not shown) provided on the drive shaft.

The display unit 4 can display the depth of water in which the hook assembly attached to the front end of the fishing line is located, the output information of the motor 12, and the speed information of the spool 10. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the display unit 4 includes a case member 36 placed on the upper portions of the 1 st side plate 7a and the 2 nd side plate 7 b. The case member 36 is fixed to the outer side surfaces of the 1 st side plate 7a and the 2 nd side plate 7b by screws. As shown in fig. 3, the display unit 4 includes a display 60 and a switch operation unit 62. The display 60 is used to display the depth of water in which the hook assembly is located, the output information of the motor, and the speed information of the spool 10. The switch operating unit 62 has a plurality of (e.g., 3) operating buttons 62a to 62c for operating the reel. The display 60 is, for example, a field type liquid crystal display device.

The display 60 has: a water depth display unit 60a for indicating water depth information; an output display unit 60b for displaying output information of the motor 12 or speed information of the spool 10; a control mode display unit 60c for displaying a control mode of the motor 12; and a power display unit 60d for displaying the power status.

The water depth display unit 60a displays the water depth information of the fishhook assembly by using, for example, 3 digits displayed in 7 segments. The output display unit 60b displays the output information of the motor 12 by 2-digit numbers displayed in 7 stages. In the present embodiment, the output information is displayed at the level SC adjusted by the adjusting means 5 described later. In addition, when the spool 10 is driven by a manual winding method through the operation of the handle 2 or the fishing line is released in a state where the rotation of the motor 12 is stopped, the output display portion 60b displays the speed information of the spool 10. In the present embodiment, the level SC corresponding to the spool speed is displayed as speed information. The control mode display unit 60c displays a speed constant mode as a control mode of the motor 12 as "S" and a tension constant mode as "R", respectively. The power supply display unit 60d displays, for example, a blinking display when the voltage of the internal power supply is equal to or lower than a predetermined voltage.

The operation button 62a is, for example, a button for finely moving the motor 12 in the winding direction. The operation button 62b is a button for setting the display of the water depth display unit 60a of the display 60 to 0. The operation button 62c is a button for switching the control mode of the motor 12 and setting the fish layer position.

Structure of control system for fishing reel

As shown in fig. 4, the control system 40 includes a reel control unit 50. The reel control unit 50 is constituted by, for example, a microcomputer including a CPU, RAM, ROM, I/O interface, and the like, or a liquid crystal drive circuit. The reel control unit 50 is disposed inside the display unit 4. The control system 40 has an adjusting member 5, a phase detecting section 61, a switch operating section 62, a spool sensor 63, a spool counter 64, a buzzer 65, a motor drive circuit 66, and a storage section 67. The reel control unit 50 is connected to the above-described units. The control system 40 is an example of a display device of the electric reel.

The adjusting means 5 is a means for adjusting the output of the motor 12 among a plurality of levels (for example, 31 levels) SC including a stop according to the rotational position. The adjusting member 5 is provided on the 1 st side cover 8a of the reel unit 1 or on the display unit 4, and is rotatable. In the present embodiment, the adjustment member 5 is provided on the case member 36 of the display section 4 and is rotatable at a predetermined angle.

The phase detecting unit 61 can detect a rotational phase of a detecting element (adjusting member 5) not shown. The detector is, for example, at least one magnet provided on the adjustment member 5, and the phase detection unit 61 is, for example, a magnetic force detector such as a hall element or a reed switch capable of detecting the magnetic force of the magnet. In the present embodiment, the phase detection unit 61 uses a hall element. In addition, the phase detection unit 61 may use a rotation detector such as a rotary encoder or a potentiometer. In the case of using such a rotation detector, the phase detecting portion 61 is connected to the rotation shaft of the adjusting member 5. The phase detector 61 may also rotate in conjunction with the rotation shaft.

The spool sensor 63 detects the number of rotations, the rotational direction, and the rotational speed of the spool 10. The bobbin sensor 63 has 2 magnetic force detecting elements, and the 2 magnetic force detecting elements are constituted by hall elements or magnetic reed switches, for example, and can detect the magnetic force of magnets, not shown. The magnet rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the

bobbin

10, and 2 magnetic force detecting elements are arranged in line along the rotation direction of the magnet. The bobbin sensor 63 detects the rotation direction of the bobbin 10 by which magnetic force detecting element first detects the magnet.

The bobbin counter 64 counts the number of pulses output from the bobbin sensor 63. The output of the spool counter 64 can detect the number of rotations X of the spool, that is, the number of rotations of the spool 10 from the start of winding, and the number of rotations of the spool 10.

The buzzer 65 is used for various kinds of notification by water depth display or the like. The motor drive circuit 66 is used to drive/control the motor 12 by Pulse Width Modulation (Pulse Width Modulation) control using a duty ratio. The motor drive circuit 66 has a current detection portion 66a, and the current detection portion 66a detects a current flowing in the motor 12. The circuit detection unit 66a also detects the torque of the motor 12. The storage section 67 is formed of an Erasable nonvolatile Memory such as an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable programmable read-Only Memory) or a flash Memory.

As shown in fig. 5, the storage section 67 is provided with: a display data storage area 67a for storing display data such as fish layer position information and speed information; a fishing line length data storage area 67b for storing fishing line length data indicating a relationship between an actual fishing line length and the number of rotations of the spool; a rotation data storage area 67c for storing winding speed (rpm) and winding torque (current value) threshold values of the winding reel 10 corresponding to the level SC; and other data storage area 67d for storing other various data. The display data storage area 67a stores a plurality of pieces of class information SCM related to the rotational speed of the spool 10, and the class information SCM corresponds to the outputs of the motors 12 of the plurality of classes SC. The other data storage area 67d stores other data such as the ship side stop position.

As shown in fig. 4, the reel control unit 50 includes, as a software functional configuration: a motor control unit 52 for controlling the output of the motor 12 in accordance with the rotational phase of the adjustment member 5; and a display control unit 54 for controlling the display 60. The motor control section 52 adjusts the output of the motor 12 among the plurality of levels SC according to the rotational position of the adjusting member 5.

The display control unit 54 has a spool speed detection unit 54a and a motor output detection unit 54b as software functional configurations. The spool speed detecting section 54a detects the rotational speed V of the spool 10 based on the output of the spool sensor 63. The motor output detection unit 54b detects that the spool 10 is not rotated by the motor 12 based on the level SC of the adjusting member 5 detected by the phase detection unit 61. When the motor 12 rotates the spool 10, the display control unit 54 displays the output information (level SC) of the motor 12 on the output display unit 60b of the display 60. When the motor 12 is in the stopped state, the display control unit 54 displays speed information on the rotation speed of the spool 10 detected by the spool speed detecting unit 54a on the output display unit 60b of the display 60.

Control action of fishing line reel control part

The control operation of the reel control unit 50 will be described based on the flowcharts shown in fig. 6 to 9. The flowcharts shown in fig. 6 to 9 are merely an example of the control steps, and the control steps of the present invention are not limited thereto.

After the electric reel 100 is connected to an external power source via a power cord, the reel control unit 50 performs initial setting in step S1 of fig. 6. In this initial setting, the reel control unit 50 clears (resets) the count value of the spool counter 64, or clears (resets) various variables or a Flag variable (Flag).

In step S2, the reel control unit 50 performs display processing such as water depth display, output display, and speed display on the display 60. In step S3, the reel control unit 50 determines whether any one of the operation buttons 62a to 62c of the switch operation unit 62 or the adjustment member 5 has been operated. In step S4, the reel control unit 50 determines whether or not the spool 10 is rotating. This determination is made based on the output of the spool sensor 63. In step S5, the reel control unit 50 determines whether or not another command or input is given, and returns to step S2 to perform the processing.

When any one of the operation buttons 62a to 62c of the switch operation unit 62 or the adjustment member 5 is operated, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S3 to step S6 to perform the processing. In step S6, the reel control unit 50 executes the switch input process shown in fig. 7. When the spool 10 is detected to be in the rotated state, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S4 to step S7 to perform the processing. In step S7, the reel control unit 50 executes each operation mode process shown in fig. 8. When another command or input is made, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S5 to step S8 to perform another processing such as a spool learning processing for learning the relationship between the fishing line length and the number of rotations X of the spool from the start of the fishing line.

In the switch input process of step S6, the reel control unit 50 determines whether or not the adjustment member 5 has been operated and rotated in step S11 in fig. 7. In step S12, the reel control unit 50 determines whether or not the operation buttons 62a to 62c of the switch operation unit 62 have been operated.

When it is determined that the adjustment member 5 has been operated, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S11 to step S15 to perform the process. In step S15, the reel control unit 50 acquires the level SC of the adjustment member 5 from the data from the phase detection unit 61. In step S16, the reel control unit 50 determines whether or not the level SC of the adjustment member 5 is "0". When the level SC of the adjustment member 5 is "0", the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S16 to step S17 to perform processing to turn off the motor 12. If the level SC of the adjustment member 5 is not "0", the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S16 to step S12 to perform the process.

After the switch operation is performed, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S12 to step S18, performs various processes corresponding to the operated switch, and returns to the control operation shown in fig. 6.

In the operation mode processing of step S7 in fig. 6, in step S21 in fig. 8, the reel control unit 50 determines whether the acquired water depth LX matches the fish layer position or the water bottom position, that is, whether the hook assembly has reached the fish layer or the water bottom position. When the water depth matches the fish layer position or the water bottom position, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S21 to step S23 to make a sound from the buzzer 65, thereby notifying (the fisherman) that the hook assembly has reached the fish layer or the water bottom.

The display control unit 54 of the reel control unit 50 controls the display processing of step S2 in fig. 6. In the display processing, in step S31 in fig. 9, the reel control unit 50 acquires the level SC of the adjustment member 5 indicated by the output of the phase detection unit 61 and the spool rotation speed V indicated by the output of the spool sensor 63. In step S32, the reel control unit 50 determines whether the acquired level SC exceeds "0", that is, whether the motor 12 is in a stopped state. If the motor 12 is not in the stopped state, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S32 to step S33. In step S33, the reel control unit 50 displays the level SC corresponding to the rotational phase of the adjustment member 5 detected by the phase detection unit 61 on the output display unit 60b, and then proceeds to step S37 to perform processing.

When the motor 12 is in the stopped state, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S32 to step S34. In step S34, the reel control unit 50 determines whether or not the spool 10 is in the rotating state based on the spool rotation speed V acquired in step S31. When the spool 10 is not in the rotated state, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S34 to step S33 to perform the processing. When the spool 10 is in the rotated state, the reel control unit 50 proceeds from step S34 to step S35 to perform the processing. In step S35, the reel control unit 50 reads the level information SCM corresponding to the spool rotation speed V from the display data storage area 67a of the storage unit 67. Specifically, the reel control unit 50 compares the spool rotation speed V with the spool rotation speed stored in the level information SCM stored in the storage unit 67, and reads the level information SCM that is the same as or most similar to the spool rotation speed V detected by the spool speed detection unit 54a based on the comparison result. In step S36, the reel control unit 50 displays the read level information SCM on the output display unit 60b, and then proceeds to step S37 to perform the processing.

In step S35, when the spool rotation speed V and the level information SCM have the relationship shown in fig. 5, the following is performed: for example, when the spool rotation speed obtained from the data acquired by the spool sensor 63 is 87rpm, the reel control unit 50 compares the spool rotation speed (87rpm) with the spool rotation speed stored in the display data storage area 67a in fig. 5. Since the speed is stored in the level information SCM 18, the reel control unit 50 reads the level information SCM 18 corresponding to the speed from the display data storage area 67 a. In step S36, the reel control unit 50 displays the level information SCM equal to "18" on the output display unit 60b as speed information corresponding to the spool rotation speed V at the time of manual winding.

In step S37, the reel control unit 50 displays the water depth LX at which the hook assembly is located, which is calculated from the fishing line length ln (x), on the water depth display unit 60 a. In step S38, the reel control unit 50 performs other display processing such as displaying the fish layer position and the control mode, and then returns to the control operation shown in fig. 6 to perform the processing.

With the electric reel 100 having the above-described configuration, after the fishing line is placed at the fish-level of the fish group, the attracting operation is performed by manually winding the fishing line. In this case, the adjusting member 5 is moved back to the operation start position, and the level SC is set to 0. In this state, when the handle 2 is rotated in the winding direction and the spool 10 is rotated in the winding direction by manual winding, the scale information SCM corresponding to the spool rotation speed V is displayed on the output display portion 60 b. When the fishing line is released to the fishfloor position by switching the clutch operating member 11 to the clutch disengaged state and the reel 10 to the free-wheeling state, the level information SCM is also displayed on the output display unit 60 b. Thus, the attracting action of the manual winding can be recognized according to the relation between the motor output information and the winding speed when the motor is driven. Therefore, the attracting action can be easily performed by manually winding the thread.

[ other embodiments ]

While one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, the plurality of embodiments and modifications described in the present specification can be arbitrarily combined as necessary.

(a) As shown in fig. 10, an identification display unit 160e may be provided on the output display unit 60b of the display 160. The identification display part 160e facilitates identification of whether the spool 10 is rotated by the rotation of the motor 12 or not and identification of whether the spool 10 is rotated by the rotation of the handle 2 or not. In fig. 10, "M" is displayed when the spool 10 is rotated by the rotation of the motor 12, and "H" is displayed when the spool 10 is rotated by the rotation of the handle 12, as the identification information. However, this is merely an example of display, and the identification display unit is not limited to this. The identification display portion may have any structure as long as it can allow a user to identify whether the reel 10 is rotated by the motor 12 or the handle 2. For example, the identification information may be characters, graphics, or the like displayed when either the manual winding or the electric winding is performed.

(b) In the above embodiment, the present invention has been described by taking the electric reel 100 in which the motor 12 is disposed in front of the spool 10 as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this. The present invention is also applicable to an electric reel in which the motor is disposed in the spool and an electric reel in which the motor is disposed outside the reel unit.

(c) In the above embodiment, the present invention has been described by taking the electric reel 100 capable of adjusting the motor 12 among a plurality of levels as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the present invention can be applied to an electric reel in which a motor is opened and closed by a switch.

(d) In the above embodiment, the rotatable adjustment member 5 is used, but the adjustment member 5 may be a member that does not rotate. For example, the adjustment member may be a swing-type operation lever member, and may be at least one operation switch. In the case where the adjustment member is a plurality of operation switches, the level SC may be increased or decreased according to the operation time or the number of operations of the operation switches.

[ character ] A

The above embodiment can be expressed as follows.

(A) The control system 40 of the electric reel 100 is a device for rotating the spool 10 around which the fishing line is wound by the rotation operation of the handle 2 and the driving of the motor 12. The control system 40 of the electric reel 100 includes an adjusting member 5, a spool speed detecting unit 54a, an output display unit 60b, and a display control unit 54. The adjusting member 5 can adjust the output of the motor 12. The bobbin speed detecting section 54a detects the rotational speed V of the bobbin 10. The output display unit 60b is used to display the following information: output information (for example, level SC) related to the output of the motor 12 adjusted by the adjusting means 5, and speed information (for example, level information SCM) related to the rotational speed of the spool 10 detected by the spool speed detecting unit 54 a. When the spool 10 is rotated by the motor 12, the display control unit 54 displays output information on the output display unit 60b, and when the spool 10 is rotated only by the rotational operation of the handle 2, the display control unit 54 displays speed information on the output display unit 60 b.

When the spool 10 is rotated by the motor 12 in accordance with the operation of the adjustment member 5, the control system 40 of the electric reel 100 displays the output information (for example, the level SC) of the motor 12 on the output display unit 60 b. When the spool 10 is rotated only by the rotational operation of the handle 2, the control system 40 of the electric reel 100 displays speed information (for example, class information SCM) on the output display unit 60b, the speed information being related to the rotational speed V of the spool 10 detected by the spool speed detecting unit 54 a. Here, the speed information is displayed on the output display portion 60b only when the spool 10 is rotated by the rotating operation of the handle 2. Therefore, when the attracting action is performed by manually winding the thread, the speed information relating to the rotation speed of the bobbin 10 is displayed. This makes it possible to easily recognize the speed information at the time of manual winding, suppress the change in the rotation speed of the spool 10, and easily perform the attracting action.

(B) The control system 40 of the electric reel 100 may further include a motor output detection unit 54b, and the motor output detection unit 54b may detect that the spool 10 is not rotated by the motor 12. When the motor output detection unit 54b detects that the spool 10 is not rotated by the motor 12, the display control unit 54 switches the display on the output display unit 60b from the display of the output information to the display of the speed information. In this case, since the display of the output information and the speed information on the output display unit 60b is switched according to the detection information of whether or not the spool 10 is rotated by the motor 12, it is not necessary to separately provide the output display unit 60b, and the electric reel 100 can be downsized. In addition, since the display of the output display unit 60b can be simplified, the visual effect can be improved.

(C) The output display part 160b may further include an identification display part 160e for identifying whether the spool 10 is rotated by the rotation of the motor 12 or rotated by the rotation of the handle 2. In this case, the user (fisher) can easily recognize whether the information displayed on the output display portion is the output information of the motor or the speed information at the time of manual winding, based on the recognition result of the recognition display portion 160 e.

(D) The motor output detection unit 54b may determine that the spool 10 is not rotated by the motor 12 when the output of the motor is adjusted to be substantially "0" by operating the adjustment member 5. In this case, when the adjustment member 5 is operated so that the output of the motor becomes substantially "0", it is determined that the spool 10 is not rotated by the motor 12, and therefore, the motor can be easily detected as being in a stopped state based on the state of a sensor or a switch or the like that detects the adjustment amount of the adjustment member 5.

(E) The adjustment member 5 can be adjusted to a plurality of levels including a "0" level, that is, the output of the motor is operated to be substantially "0", and the display control section 54 can also display the level SC of the adjustment member 5 on the output display section 60b as the output information of the motor 12. In this case, since the output information of the motor 12 is displayed by the level SC of the adjusting means 5, the adjustment level SC of the motor 12 can be easily determined.

(F) The control system 40 of the electric reel 100 may further include a storage unit 67, and the storage unit 67 may store a plurality of level information SCM regarding the rotation speed V of the spool corresponding to the outputs of the plurality of levels of the motor 12. When the spool 10 is rotated only by the rotational operation of the handle 2, the display control unit 54 compares the speed information with the level information SCM stored in the storage unit 67, and based on the comparison result, the reel control unit 50 displays the level information which is the same as or most similar to the speed information detected by the reel speed detection unit 54a on the output display unit 60 b. In this case, the speed information at the time of manual winding is displayed based on the level information SCM of the output information at the time of driving with the motor 12. Therefore, the attracting action of the manual winding wire can be recognized based on the relationship with the motor output information and the winding speed when the motor is driven, and the attracting action of the manual winding wire can be more easily performed.
