Description

The invention relates to a fishing reel comprising a housing ( 1 ) which receives a line winding device ( 3 , 5 ) which can be actuated by means of a hand crank ( 6 ) and an associated line spool ( 2 ). A brake device which can be adjusted by means of a brake ring ( 11 ) or the like ensures a controllable line delivery relative to the movement of the winding direction.

A brake ring ( 11 ) is located behind the rotar ( 5 ) to make handling easier, to enable sensitive drilling and smooth, step-free function of the brake. This is operatively connected to the brake device ( 9 , 10 , 17 , 18 ) - or in each case with several - via a gear wheel disk ( 25 ) and / or one (several) pistons ( 15 ), parallel to the coil shaft ( 4 ).

There are types of fishing reels that have line release when ejected can only be done by moving the spool (multi-reels) and such, at which the bobbin is fixed with this function (stationary rollers).

With these stationary rollers, you can again divide the brake into two types. Namely, in which the coil shaft ( 4 ) is fixed and the braking effect on the rotary movement of the coil ( 2 ) via a braking system on or in the coil ( 2 ) is developed (head brake).

In the other type, the braking effect occurs via an axially moving coil shaft ( 4 ) which is permanently connected to the coil ( 2 ) and is in direct operative connection with the brake system (rear brake).

This invention relates to the further development of the rear brake system tems.

Basically, the brake system is used to drill old fishing reel types. It must ensure that the line is released independently of the winding device; depending on the tensile force acting on the cord.

By dosing the braking force, depending on the cord thickness, the landing fish and water conditions, the line becomes one hand relieved and on the other hand can on every flight movement of the defending Fish are reacted to fatigue them and may be out of range to deflect existing water hazards and thus a safe one Ensure landing.  

The known braking devices can be turned, knobs, switches or Adjust the brake lever, these elements directly on the coil (e.g. DE-GM 81 21 656 U1, on the housing (e.g. US 4,591,108) or concentric to the cube axis and to a hollow mounting arm (e.g. EP-0181027 A2) are arranged. Adjusting the brake while the cord is being rolled up is either excluded with these types or only possible with difficulty.

The integration of the brake lever in the handle, such as the AT 387 496 shows is functionally and technically unsatisfactory because of the angler now with one hand crank and brake button must operate at the same time what in the Excitement of the drill can easily lead to coordination problems.

The invention is a fishing reel that the operability of the braking device significantly improved and at the same time a sensitive, stepless drill with adjustable braking force guaranteed at all times.

A fishing reel consists of a housing ( 1 ) in which a spool shaft ( 4 ) is rotatably and axially displaceably mounted for the rotationally fixed placement of a line spool ( 2 ). One of the spool ( 2 ) assigned cord winding device has a rotor ( 5 ) rotatably mounted around the spool shaft ( 4 ), which can be driven by means of a hand crank ( 6 ) via a gearbox with integrated backstop - and not shown here in detail - and which turns when the crank turns wound string over a bracket system (3) around the stationary coil (2), while rotor perform a derived from the drive wheel (7) lifting movement (5) and bobbin shaft (4), the cord so that uniformly on the spool core (14) postponed becomes.

Due to the backstop of the rotor ( 5 ), a line release during the drill can only take place via a rotary movement of the spool ( 2 ) and the associated spool shaft ( 4 ), so that a braking effect can only be achieved by controlling this rotary movement.

The end of the coil shaft ( 4 ') opposite the coil ( 2 ) is flattened on at least one side and receives a gearwheel ( 19 ) with the same bore, so that the coil shaft ( 4 ) can carry out the lifting movement without hindrance, but that by the Discharge of a fish caused rotation of the spool shaft ( 4 ) can only be achieved by rotating the gear ( 19 ).

This gear wheel ( 19 ) is connected via a further gear wheel ( 8 ) and a shaft ( 20 ) connected to it to the brake discs ( 18 ) located in the brake cylinder ( 17 ).

The brake discs ( 18 ) are mounted in such a way that only one brake disc is alternately supported on the shaft ( 20 ), the bores not being round but flattened.

The discs in between have pins ( 9 ) which are fixed in the brake cylinder ( 17 ) and have round bores. These brake discs can not perform a rotary movement, so that only the first type of brake discs can be rotated by the rotary movement of the, also laterally flattened, shaft ( 20 ).

This leads to a braking effect of the rotary movement of the shaft ( 20 ) via the friction of the brake discs ( 18 ) as a function of the forces acting on them via the spring ( 10 ) and the area of the brake discs ( 18 ).

The existing rear brakes put this brake cylinder ( 17 ) directly on the end of the coil shaft ( 4 '). Through the translation via a gearbox - here two gear wheels of different sizes - the braking effect can be increased with the same forces acting on the brake discs ( 18 ) via the spring ( 10 ). Because of the translation - a large gear ( 19 ) on the spool shaft ( 4 '), a small gear ( 8 ) on the shaft ( 20 ) connected to the brake system - the brake discs have to rotate several times in relation to the rotation of the spool shaft ( 4 ) understand, which in turn leads to an increase in braking.

This effect can be multiplied by storing not only a smaller gear ( 8 ) on the larger gear ( 19 ) resting on the spool shaft ( 4 '), but several gears ( 19 ', Fig. 2) that are in operative connection with their own brake cylinders ( 17 , Fig. 2).

Another innovation is based on the idea that the control element for the brake, which is also usually located at the rear of the fishing reel, is moved behind the rotor ( 5 ) by integrating a brake ring ( 11 ) here, from which the braking force is controlled.

On the one hand, this enables the crank-guiding hand to remain on the crank and, on the other hand, the hand holding the roller handle ( 12 ) can be actuated via the thumb and index finger, thus actuating the brake ring ( 11 ) and thus controlling the braking force.

This brake ring ( 11 ) is mounted on an extended housing connector ( 21 ). The bearing can be carried out by means of ball bearings, balls ( 22 ) mounted on springs, only on the housing connection piece ( 21 ) by means of lubricant or other comparable methods which support the rotary movement of the brake ring ( 11 ).

The brake ring ( 11 ) is fixed by means of a ring ( 24 ) which is firmly screwed to the housing or two parts which form a ring.

The inside of the brake ring ( 11 ) is provided with a thread ( 23 ). Via this thread ( 23 ), the brake ring ( 11 ) is operatively connected ( 26 , Fig. ) With the worm gear ( 16 , Fig. 1) or the gear disk ( 25 , Fig. 3) protruding from the recesses ( 13 ) of the housing socket . 3).

As a result, the rotary movement of the brake ring ( 11 ) is transformed into a longitudinal movement.

The longitudinal movement of the worm gear or the worm gears ( 16 ) or the gear disc ( 25 ), via one or more pistons ( 15 ), leads to an increase or decrease in the spring ( 10 ) mounted in the brake cylinder ( 17 ), depending on the direction of rotation of the brake ring ( 11 ) - the forces acting on the brake discs ( 18 ), which in turn relieves or loads the rotary movement of the brake discs ( 18 ) and thus also results in a change in the braking effect.

This braking system ( FIG. 1) is also conceivable as an additional braking system to the customary rear braking systems by pre-adjusting the braking force via the customary rear brake and fine adjustment via the brake ring ( 11 ).

The brake system equipped with a plurality of brake cylinders ( 17 , FIG. 2) can also be implemented in this form by the brake force control of a brake cylinder ( 17 ) being accessible for a separate setting - not shown here in detail - and that of the rest via the brake ring ( 11 ). he follows.
