BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing reel, and more particularly, to a fishing reel provided with a rod clamp provided for securely holding a dual bearing reel or a single bearing reel integrally with a fishing rod. Regarding improvement.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In trolling of big game fishing, etc.,
Fighting a fish for a long time to pull up a hit fish will take place. In that case, winding and unwinding of the fishing line is performed by raising and lowering a fishing rod on which a reel is attached. However, since the tension caused by the escape of the hit fish is applied to the fishing rod via the fishing line, it is difficult to lift the fishing rod upward only by hand, and it is absolutely necessary to raise and lower the fishing rod using the entire body. The fishing rod (fishing reel) is lifted upward using the whole body. In this operation, the frame of the fishing reel is integrated so that the fishing reel is integrated so as not to be separated from the fishing rod. A rod clamp is provided on the body. Further, a harness ring for hooking a harness which assists in lifting the fishing reel is arranged above the frame.

As shown in FIG. 10, a bolt 30 is fixed to the right and left sides of the rod leg 29 under the frame body 28, and the left and right bolts 3 are fixed to the rod clamp.
A holding plate 31 for holding the lower side of the fishing rod over 0 is attached so as to be able to move up and down.
Wing nut 3 for tightening the screw part protruding downward
2 has a screwed configuration. A harness ring 33 for connecting and attaching a harness is mounted on the upper side of the frame so as to protrude outward (upward) from the outer periphery of the frame.

[0004]

By the way, a reel equipped with a rod clamp is used as a placing rod, and when a fish hits, there is no problem in engaging a harness ring with a hook on the harness side and fighting. When fishing with a fishing rod held by hand, there is a problem that a rod clamp attached to the outer peripheral surface of the frame so as to protrude outward becomes an obstacle. Of course, the harness ring is also an obstacle.

That is, when fishing by hand, the reel attached to the fishing rod is held by hand. In this case, the fingers of the hand holding the reel from the side hit the bolts and wing nuts constituting the rod clamp, and the reel Has the inconvenience of not being able to hold the camera stably.

[0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a fishing reel having a rod clamp which can reliably integrate a fishing reel with a fishing rod and which does not hinder the use of the fishing reel.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has a technical solution in which a reel leg for attaching a reel body to a fishing rod is provided below a frame on which a spool is rotatably supported. In a fishing reel provided with a rod clamp that integrally fixes a reel body to a fishing rod,

It features a flexible configuration.
That is, when the fishing reel is grasped by hand, the latch means attached to the frame does not hinder the grasping operation. That is, when the fishing reel attached to the fishing rod is gripped by hand, the rod clamp attached to the frame does not hinder the gripping operation.

[0008] As a structure in which the clamp body is attached to the frame so as to be fastened / released to the frame body, a screw is formed on the outer periphery of both sides of the clamp body, while the screw is screwed to the frame body side. A screw is installed rotatably in a fixed position, and the clamp body is tightened and opened and separated by the rotation of the rod clamp screw, or a rod clamp screw with a screw formed on the outer peripheral surface on both sides of the clamp body is freely rotatable. Connected mounting,
There is a screw structure such as a structure in which the rod clamp screw is screwed into a screw hole formed in the frame. Further, a sleeve having an engaging portion at the tip portion is freely connected to and attached to both side portions of the clamp body, and a latching portion is provided on the frame body for engaging with the engaging portion of the plug. Embedded and fixed, and a plug may be inserted into and removed from the sleeve. Further, the clamp body may be formed of a wire. Further, the clamp body may be projected vertically downward from the lower side of the frame, or may be projected obliquely downward from the lower side of the frame. Further, when the clamp body is a wire or a flat plate, a protective material such as a pad is interposed at a position where the clamp body comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod, or the wire is covered with a tube so that the fishing rod is not damaged. Is optional. Further, when the clamp body is a wire rod, it is optional to crush the portion of the clamp body that comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod into a flat plate shape so as not to damage the fishing rod.

According to the above-mentioned means, since the clamp body made of the wire is curved in a substantially U-shape, the holding of the fishing rod takes a form in which the outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod is held from the outside. Since the projecting amount is small and the projecting portion is only the wire rod along the outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod, the rod clamp does not hinder the holding of the fishing reel.
