Abstract

1,255,351. Fishing reel. ETABS. CARPANO & PONS. 3 Jan., 1969 [5 Jan., 1968], No. 645/69. Heading A1A. A fishing reel comprises a rotatable bobbin 2 having rotatable braking means 17 operative in one direction of bobbin rotation, and noisemaking means actuated by rotation of the braking means 17. The bobbin 2 is freely rotatable on an axially slit axle 8, and teeth 2a engage in housings 21d to constrain a ring 21c to rotate with the bobbin 2. The ring 21c pivotally mounts a pawl 20, Fig. 2, cooperating with peripheral teeth on the braking member 17, a U-spring 22 engaging the faces of the member 17 at the extremities of the teeth and being arranged to hold the pawl 20 in engagement in one direction of rotation, the member 17 thus being constrained to rotate with the bobbin 2 in this direction. A braking action is exerted on the member 17 through friction rings 16, 19 by a ring 15, acted on by a spring- loaded plate 14 constrained against rotation by projections (14a), (14b) which traverse the slot in the axle 8. Adjustment of the braking force is achieved by turning a knob 11, screwing the threaded end 10a of a rod 10 into a nut 12, fixed against rotation by engagement in the slot of the axle 8, to compress a spring 13. The bobbin 2 is held in a casing 1 by a plate 25a, depressible by a button 24 against a spring 26, the edge of an oval hole 27 engaging in a groove 9b around the head of a member 9a attached to the shaft 8. Teeth 17b on the braking member 17 cooperate with a noisemaking pawl 18.
