DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a weight / stopper having both a role of a weight and a stopper function for retaining a float.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In conventional surf fishing, sarkans 4 have been used (a in FIG. 5). However, when sarkans 4 are used, the floats 5 stop at the sarkans 4, so that the road yarn 3 and the harris 6 are not used. The number of people who directly link F to F is increasing. In the figure,
Symbol G indicates a float stopper. However, if the direct connection F is used, the float 5 falls to the hook 9 (b in FIG. 5),
This caused a problem of dropping the food. Even if there is a gun ball 7 (weight), if it is directly connected to the rib F, it hits the gun ball 7 and shifts (c in FIG. 5).
Tended to fall. For this reason, in the case of a directly-connected flute F, a resin floating stopper 8 as shown in FIG. 6 is often used. The float stopper 8 is inserted into the float rubber, which is the elastic tubular body 2 previously passed through the yarn 3, and stops the float 5 from falling.

[0003]

However, since the float stopper 8 is made of resin and is light, it is only a stopper for stopping the float 5 and the gun ball 7 must be further mounted below the stopper 8. As shown in FIG. 7, a stopper 8, a gun ball 7, a directly-connected rim F, a gun ball 7,
Fishing hooks 9 and the like are now lined up. The purpose of attaching the gun ball 7 is twofold, and one is to adjust the buoyancy. This is for eliminating the extra buoyancy of the float 5 and because the float 5 is affected by the wind when it comes out of the sea surface. The other purpose is to increase the sinking speed, for example, when the tana is deep and you want to drop quickly.

However, when the above-mentioned gun ball 7 is mounted below the stopper 8, there are the following problems. Primarily,
Once the gun ball 7 was attached, the removal was troublesome and the fishing line 3 had to be cut at the time of replacement. Alternatively, the gun ball 7 had to be removed using special pliers. Of course, it was impossible to reuse the gun ball 7. Secondly, since the gun ball 7 is round, a small one is very difficult to attach to the fishing line 3 and it takes time to attach it. Third, the gun ball 7 made the fishing line thinner and did not damage, but the line strength there was weaker. In addition, it was difficult to display the weight of a small gun ball 7.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and it is also possible to use a weight capable of adjusting the buoyancy and adjusting the sinking speed in place of a gun ball without causing damage to the fishing line, without damaging the fishing line. It is intended to provide a stopper.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object,
The gist of the present invention described in claim 1 is characterized in that a shaft portion formed of a metal rod-like body and capable of detachably fitting a tubular elastic body inserted through a warp yarn is formed at both ends thereof. It is in the weight combined stopper. The gist of the present invention according to claim 2 is that a main part which is formed of a metal column and has a cutout groove formed in a radial direction from an outer peripheral surface thereof, and a diameter smaller than the main part provided at both ends of the main part. And a shaft portion, wherein a tubular elastic body inserted into the yarn is detachably fitted to both shaft portions. A weight / stopper according to a third aspect of the present invention is characterized in that, in the first or second aspect, a mark serving as a measure of the total weight is formed on the main portion.

According to the first and second aspects of the present invention, when the shaft portion capable of detachably fitting the tubular elastic body inserted into the line is formed, the weight / stopper can be used without damaging the fishing line. Can be attached to the road thread. Since the weight / stopper is made of metal, the buoyancy adjustment and the sinking speed can be adjusted instead of the gun ball. Further, as in the invention of claim 3,
When a mark serving as a measure of the total weight is formed on the main portion, a weight having a desired weight to be attached can be easily selected.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a weight / stopper according to the present invention will be described in detail below. (1) Embodiment 1 FIGS. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a weight / stopper according to the present invention. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view thereof, and FIG. 2 is a front view of the same weight / stopper having a different total weight. Is shown.

The weight / stopper 1 is a product made of metal (here, made of brass) and having a relatively small total weight. G3-3B weight class,
FIG. 1 shows the thing of 2B, FIG. 2A shows 3B, FIG. 2B shows B, and FIG. 2C shows G3. The weight / stopper 1 is an axially symmetric rod-like body, and includes a main portion 1a and a shaft portion 1b. The main part 1a and the shaft part 1b of this embodiment are formed integrally. The weight / stopper 1 can be, for example, a processed product of a metal bar using a forging machine or the like.

The main portion 1a is a columnar body having a diameter d2 of about 3 mmφ. By changing the length of the main portion 1a, the total weight is adjusted to B to 3B. The shaft portions 1 b are provided at both ends of the weight / stopper 1. The shaft portion 1b includes a main portion 1a
The shaft body has a smaller diameter and extends from the main portion 1a. Here, the diameter d1 of the shaft portion 1b is approximately 2 mmφ at the connection with the main portion 1a, which is the base, and the diameter is approximately 1.5 mmφ toward the tip, and is tapered. The tip of the shaft 1b has a conical shape and a rounded shape. This is to make it easier to fit the cylindrical elastic body 2 made of a rubber cylindrical body or the like into the shaft portion 1b.
The cylindrical elastic body 2 having a hole diameter smaller than the shaft diameter d1 can be detachably fitted to the shaft part 1b, but the cylindrical elastic body 2 does not fall out of the shaft part 1b naturally. A predetermined length (here, about 6 mm) is secured. The cylindrical elastic body 2 used in the present embodiment is easily fitted on the shaft portion 1b and exerts the elastic force of the cylindrical elastic body 2 to form the shaft portion 1b.
As shown in FIG. 1, the shaft 1b
The hole diameter of the cylindrical elastic body 2 on the side is increased, and the hole diameter farther from the shaft portion 1b is reduced.

In the weight / stopper 1 having a total weight of B to 3B, a circumferential groove 11 is formed in the outer peripheral surface E of the main portion 1a. The circumferential groove 11 includes one weight / stopper 1 having a total weight of B, two weight / stoppers 1 having a total weight of 2B, and three weight / stoppers 1 having a total weight of 3B. This mark serves as an indicator of the weight (main part 1a + shaft part 1b). Note that the weight / stopper 1 having the total weight G3 is easily distinguished from the others since the weight / stopper 1 is not provided with the mark 11 only in addition to the shape.

The weight / stopper 1 thus constructed
Is to pass a tubular elastic body 2 having an inner diameter slightly smaller than the shaft diameter d1 of the shaft portion 1b through the two-way yarn 3, and
Are inserted into the cylindrical elastic body 2 to serve as a float stopper. The falling of the float 5 can be stopped by the weight / stopper 1. Since the main weight stopper 1 is made of metal, it is heavy and can also function as a weight. Buoyancy adjustment and sinking speed can be adjusted instead of gun ball 7.
By changing the length of the main portion 1a, fine weight adjustment becomes possible. By providing a lineup of the weight / stopper 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is possible to easily cope with the situation of the fishing spot, such as stabilization of the device below the float 5 and tension. Since the weight and stopper 1 is formed in a rod shape as a whole along the fishing line 3, there is an advantage that the resistance to water is hardly received and the fish does not feel uncomfortable.

Moreover, the weight / stopper 1 according to the present invention.
Unlike the gun ball 7, is attached to the fishing line 3 with its elastic force by being inserted into the cylindrical elastic body 2, so that the fishing line 3 may be damaged or the line of the fishing line may be thinned to reduce the line strength. There is no. Since the weight and stopper 1 also serves as the weight and the stopper, it is not necessary to hang the stopper 8 and the gun ball 7 on the fishing line 3 as shown in FIG. Can be taken.

Further, since the main weight stopper 1 is detachably attached to the cylindrical elastic body 2 by utilizing its elastic force, it is not necessary to cut the fishing line 3 when removing it, and it is of course possible to reuse it. . Further, since the weight / stopper 1 is formed in a rod-like body, unlike the gun ball 7, the attachment to the fishing line 3 is facilitated by using the cylindrical elastic body 2 even if it is small. In addition, even if the weight and weight stopper 1 have a small total weight, the circumferential groove 11 which is a measure of the total weight is formed so that it is obvious. It can be easily selected. In addition, when the weight and stopper 1 is made of brass, it can be easily processed and can be provided at low cost. If a forging machine such as a header used for manufacturing nails or the like is used, it can be manufactured more easily than the gun ball 7.

(2) Embodiment 2 FIGS. 3 and 4 show a weight / stopper 1 of another embodiment. FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the stopper, and FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a weight / stopper attached to a fishing line. FIG.

The weight / stopper 1 here comprises a main part 1a made of metal and a shaft part 1c made of resin. This embodiment is applied to the weight / stopper 1 having a larger total weight than that of the first embodiment. Therefore, the diameter of the main part 1a is as large as about 5 mmφ. The main part 1a is a columnar body such as stainless steel or brass. The main portion 1a has a through hole 13 passing through its central axis.
Are formed, and a notch groove 12 is formed in the radial direction from the outer peripheral surface E of the main portion 1a. The notch groove 12 reaches the through hole 13. The width of the notch groove 12 is sufficient if the fishing line 3 can enter. The mark 11 as a measure of the total weight is formed by engraving the main portion 1a.

The shaft portion 1c is made of resin as described above, and two round bars of a predetermined length are prepared. The shaft portion 1c has an outer diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the through hole 13. The main part 1a and the shaft part 1c are originally separate bodies (FIG. 3) and are integrated by assembly. The two shaft portions 1c are coated with an adhesive or the like and then inserted into the through holes 13, so that the shaft portions 1c having a smaller diameter than the main portion 1a are provided on both sides of the main portion 1a. The tip of the shaft portion 1c of the weight / stopper 1 thus formed is rounded. The cylindrical elastic body 2 can be detachably fitted to the shaft portion 1c appearing outside the main portion 1a, and a predetermined length is ensured so that the cylindrical elastic body 2 does not fall out of the shaft portion 1c naturally. Is done. The shaft portion 1c may be made of metal, or the main portion 1a and the shaft portion 1c may be integrally formed from the beginning. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment,
The explanation is omitted. The same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment denote the same or corresponding parts.

The weight / stopper 1 thus configured also exhibits the same functions and effects as the first embodiment. Further, in the present embodiment, since the notch groove 12 is provided, it is possible to prevent the fishing line 3 from falling off. When the diameter of the main part 1a is as large as about 5 mmφ when the fishing rod is lifted or the like, when there is no notch groove 12, the tension acts on the fishing line 3 along the shaft part 1c from the surface E of the main part 1a and the cylindrical shape. Elastic body 2 is shaft part 1
c. When the notch groove 12 is provided as in this embodiment, the fishing line 3 is put in the notch groove 12 and the cylindrical elastic body 2 is fitted to the shaft portion 1c (FIG. 4). Even if tension acts, the main part 1a
Since the fishing line 3 is substantially straight along the shaft portion 1c from above, the cylindrical elastic body 2 fitted to the shaft portion 1c does not come off.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, but can be variously modified within the scope of the present invention depending on the purpose and application. Main part 1a, shaft parts 1b, 1c, cylindrical elastic body 2
The shape, size, material, and the like of can be appropriately selected according to the application.

[0020]

As described above, the weight / stopper according to the present invention can serve as a stopper for a float while displaying a weight, and can be used instead of a gun ball without damaging the fishing line. It can adjust buoyancy and sinking speed, and has excellent effects.
