By the way, the flying distance is important in throwing fishing and the like, and the flying distance is affected by various factors. One of the factors is the distance between the two fishing line guides. The fishing line may bulge to the side. For example, as shown by a two-dot chain line A in FIG. That is, since there is no guide for the fishing line between the two adjacent fishing line guides, the fishing line may be largely separated laterally from the rod body, and may spirally move. If the fishing line swells or rampages in this way, the fishing line receives resistance by the fishing line guide, and the flight distance does not increase. In addition, the bulge and rampage become larger and more intense as the separation distance between the two adjacent fishing line guides is larger. There is a problem in cost.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and provides a fishing rod capable of suppressing swelling and runaway of a fishing line between two adjacent fishing line guides without increasing the number of the fishing line guides. The task is to

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and a fishing rod according to the present invention is a fishing rod provided with a plurality of fishing line guides for guiding a fishing line in the axial direction of the fishing rod. A swinging guide having an elastic member which expands and contracts in the axial direction of the fishing rod, wherein at least one fishing line guide is attached to the elastic member and is configured to be swingable in the axial direction of the fishing rod by the elastic restoring force of the elastic member. It is characterized by being.

When casting is performed using such a fishing rod, the swinging guide once moves to the rod tip side due to its own inertial force, and then the elastic member expands and contracts in the axial direction of the fishing rod. The fishing rod reciprocates in the axial direction of the fishing rod due to the force. Therefore, in the movement range,
It is virtually the same state as guiding the fishing line with a plurality of fishing line guides.

[0007] The swinging guide includes a mounting portion loosely fitted to the outside of the rod body so as to be movable in the axial direction, and an annular portion positioned on a side of the mounting portion and through which the fishing line is inserted. The elastic member is a rubber string-like body provided substantially parallel to the rod body and having one end fixed to the mounting portion, and the rubber string-like body is attached to the tip and the base of the swing guide. Are preferably provided.

In such a case, by using a substantially parallel rubber cord, the swing guide can be pivoted in the axial direction with a simple structure, and the elastic restoring force of the cord can be improved. Acts on the mounting portion, so that it can swing smoothly along the rod body without prying when swinging. Moreover,
By providing them on the rod tip side and the rod base side, respectively, the expansion and contraction rate of each cord can be easily changed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of a fishing rod according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a fishing rod with a reel R mounted thereon. That is, the fishing rod has a reel sheet S for mounting the reel R on the rod base side.
And a plurality of fishing line guides b for guiding the fishing line L unreeled from the reel R in the axial direction linearly to the ear tip.
, B7 are mounted on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical rod body 1.

The plurality of fishing line guides b1, b2,
.., B7, the second fishing line guide b6 from the rod base side
Is a swinging guide that can swing in the axial direction of the fishing rod, and other fishing line guides b1, b2, b3, b4, b5, b7
Numerals are fixed guides fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the rod body 1. That is, the fishing line guide b5 adjacent to the rod tip side of the swing guide b6 and the fishing line guide b7 adjacent to the rod base side of the swing guide b6 are both fixed guides, and the swing guide b6 has its reference position. In these two fixed guides b
5 and b7 are disposed at substantially intermediate positions.

The swing guide b5 has a cylindrical tubular portion 2 as a mounting portion that is loosely fitted to the outside of the rod main body 1 so as to be movable in the axial direction, and is located on the side of the tubular portion 2. And a guide ring 3 as an annular portion through which the fishing line L is inserted. The guide ring 3 is fixed to the tubular portion 2 via a holding frame 4 that holds the guide ring 3. The cylindrical portion 2 and the guide ring 3
May be formed integrally instead of separately.

As means for swinging the swinging guide b6 in the axial direction of the rod body 1, a rubber string 5 is used.
Is adopted. The cord 5 has a predetermined gap with the outer peripheral surface of the rod body 1 and is linearly disposed substantially parallel to the rod body 1. A total of four guides are provided between the swing guide b6 and two between the fixed guide b5 and the swing guide b6 adjacent to the pole tip side.

One end of each string 5 is fixed to the cylindrical portion 2. Further, the other end of the string-shaped body 5 is fixed to a position T where the adjacent fixed guides b5 and b7 are attached to the rod body 1. That is, the swing guide b6 is connected to the cord-like body 5 on the rod tip side.
The pulling force is applied from both sides by the rod-shaped body 5 and the string-side body 5 at the base of the rod, and the reference position is determined based on the tension balance by the string-shaped bodies 5 on both sides. Then, when the cord-like body 5 expands and contracts along the axial direction of the rod main body 1, its elastic restoring force acts on the tubular portion 2, whereby the swing guide b6 swings.

Further, the string members 5 on the rod base side and the rod tip side have a symmetrical relationship with respect to the swing guide b6, and one string is provided on the guide ring 3 side and one is provided on the opposite side to the guide ring 3 respectively. The cords 5 are arranged one by one, and the cords 5 on the rod base side and the rod tip side are disposed substantially on the same line. That is, the two cord-like bodies 5 are provided at an interval of substantially half a circumference along the circumferential direction of the rod body 1 and are at opposing positions.

In the case of casting with the fishing rod configured as described above, the centrifugal force acts on the rocking guide b6 so that the rocking guide b6 swings momentarily to the rod tip side, and then the elasticity of the string 5 When the restoring force acts on the cylindrical portion 2, the swing guide b6 is pulled back toward the base of the rod, and thereafter, reciprocating motion is repeated along the axial direction. When the swing guide b6 vibrates in a simple manner as described above, the swing range is apparently equivalent to a state in which a plurality of fishing line guides are provided. That is, in the swing range, the fishing line L is guided by one swing guide b6 in the same manner as guided by a plurality of fishing line guides. Therefore, the swelling of the fishing line L to the side and the spiral runaway (indicated by the two-dot chain line B in FIG. 2) of the swing guide b6 on the rod base side and the rod tip side are suppressed by the swing range. As a result, the resistance received by the fishing line L is reduced, and the flight distance can be increased.

Further, since the string-like members 5 on the rod base side and the rod tip side are provided at opposing positions, rotation of the swing guide b6 in the circumferential direction is suppressed. In order to suppress such rotation, it is also effective to use the fishing line guides b5 and b7 adjacent to both sides of the swinging guide b6 as fixed guides and to use the rubber string 5 as an elastic member that expands and contracts in the axial direction. is there. still,
Approximately 9 cords 5 on the rod base side, the rod tip side, or both
Various changes are possible, such as providing four at intervals of 0 degrees. In any case, there is an advantage that the rotation of the swing guide b6 in the circumferential direction can be suppressed by providing a plurality of the string-shaped bodies 5 at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction instead of one.

Furthermore, since the string-like body 5 is linearly arranged along the axis of the rod body 1 and one end of the string-like body 5 is fixed to the tubular part 2, the tubular part 2 may be twisted or rotated. It is difficult to swing and can swing smoothly.

It is to be noted that the rod-shaped string 5 on the rod base side and the string 5 on the rod tip side are used.
Is what has almost the same expansion and contraction ratio,
Different stretch ratios may be used. A structure in which one string-like body 5 is disposed so as to straddle the swing guide b6 in the axial direction, and both ends of the string-like body 5 are fixed to the rod body 1 and the fishing line guide, and the swing guide b6 is fixed in the middle thereof. However, as described above, by separately providing the cords 5 separately on the rod base side and the pole tip side, the cord bodies 5 on the rod base side and the pole tip side can be used.
Of the rocking guide b6 suitable for the use of the fishing rod can be easily set.

As the elastic member, various members other than the string-like member 5 such as a coil spring may be used. When using a coil spring, the rod body 1
Can be externally fitted to the outer peripheral surface. However, by using the rubber-made string-shaped body 5, it is difficult to be twisted and can be swung in the axial direction with a simple configuration. The location and number of the swing guides b6 and the type of the fishing rod are not particularly limited.

[0020]

As described above, by providing the swinging guide b6 which swings in the axial direction, it is possible to suppress the swelling and runaway of the fishing line without increasing the number of the fishing line guides. As a result, In addition, the flight distance can be increased as compared with the conventional case.
