DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a guide for a fishing rod in which a fishing line can be easily attached and detached at any time, and more particularly to a guide for a fishing rod in which a wire wound spirally is provided with a folded portion to form a fishing line insertion / removal path. About.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a guide for a fishing rod using a reel has a structure in which an annular body or a helical wire is fixed to the fishing rod. Therefore, once the fishing line is inserted, it cannot be removed unless the fishing line is cut. Therefore, when replacing the fishing line, disconnect the device, take up the fishing line on the reel, remove it from the fishing rod, set another reel, insert it again and be careful not to forget to pass around 10 guides, and finally insert it. They had to do the work of installing the gimmicks, which required a lot of trouble.

[0003] In fly fishing in particular, since the depth of the fish predation changes depending on the weather change of the day and the time of day, the fly line floats on the water surface, the type floats directly below the water surface, and the fish sinks slowly. It is necessary to change to a type that goes out of the way, a type that sinks quickly, and other types. There were not a few anglers who prepared a plurality of fishing rods set on the spot.

[0004] However, when standing on the surface of the water and fishing, the fishing rod placed on the land is anxious, and when replacing it, be careful not to make a sound in the water and land on the land. I have to go back. For this reason, the fact is that in many cases, the system that does not fit the situation is often used with patience.

Therefore, a fishing rod guide has been proposed which can easily attach and detach a fishing line at any time. For example, a fishing rod guide described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 55-33076 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-114956. The former has a configuration in which folded portions are provided on both outer sides in opposite directions while spirally winding a wire to form a fishing line insertion / removal path, and a fishing line is slid through a gap between the two folded portions.

The latter guide has a structure in which a ring fixed to a support is provided with an intersecting portion or an overlapping portion with a gap, and the intersecting portion and the like are elastically closed or a semi-closed type close to it. It had to be pushed open by hand or forced into a small gap to penetrate the fishing line.

[0007]

However, in the former guide, since the folded portion is located on both outer sides and is open, when the fishing line swings, it enters the fishing line insertion / removal path beyond the tip of the folded portion. There is a drawback that once the fish line enters the fishing line, the slip of the fishing line suddenly worsens and the fish line stops moving, or the fishing line comes off the guide. Especially in fly fishing, in order to fly the fly with high air resistance and little weight far away, it is necessary to swing the fishing rod back and forth many times in the air and extend the fishing line gradually and far away. The guide was troublesome and not practical.

In the latter case, there is a fear that the fishing line may be damaged when the fishing line is inserted into the guide. Especially in fly fishing,
Such a guide could not be used due to the use of a fly line coated with a soft synthetic resin.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above problems, and provides a fishing rod guide that allows easy replacement of fishing line, makes it difficult for the fishing line to enter a fishing line insertion / removal path even if the fishing line swings, and that does not damage the fishing line when the fishing line is inserted. It is intended to be.

[0010]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a fishing rod guide according to the present invention forms a fishing line support portion by spirally winding a wire erecting from a guide fixing portion fixed to a fishing rod, In a fishing rod guide that forms a fishing line insertion / removal path between a wire turnback portion and a fishing line support portion provided in the middle of winding,
The fishing line support portion is a ring-shaped support portion that is wound at least one round at the end in the hand direction and the tip direction, and the wire turn-back portion is provided between the two ring-shaped support portions.

The folded wire portion is formed in a U-shape or a V-shape, and hangs down from the ring-shaped support portion so as to be overlapped with each other. At the time of insertion, the fishing line that bends in a U-shape is drawn in along the back surface of the wire folded portion, and at the time of removal, the fishing line is bent and pulled out beyond the tip of the wire folded portion.

Since the inserted fishing line is supported at two points by the two ring-shaped support portions and is substantially in a straight line between them, there is no danger that even if it moves within the guide, it will move from the tip of the wire folded portion to the back. When two wires are fixed in parallel on a fishing rod, the fixing point is one and can be used as a top guide.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the fishing line support portion of the fishing rod guide is characterized in that either one of the loops at the hand or at the tip end is smaller than the other loop. This guide is used for a top or hand guide. In the case of a top guide, the tip is of a large diameter, and in the case of a hand guide, the hand is of a large diameter. In these places, the fishing line is released from the guide and bends largely. However, if the guide has a large or small portion, the guide line is partially bent even during this period, so that the load on the fishing line is reduced.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall view of a fishing rod used for fly fishing, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a fishing rod guide. Fly fishing is a special system of fishing because the fly with high air resistance and little weight must be blown away. That is, the fly 2 is connected to the tip of the fly line 1, and the fly line 1 is gradually swung back and forth in the air like a whip by using its inertia, and finally the fly 2 is reached far. , The fly 2 is an extra-fine one called a tippet 3
tied to the gushes around m, and become thinner as you go further 2
It is connected to the fly line 1 through a leader called a leader 4 around m.

This is because when the swinging fly line 1 extends linearly from the U-shape, the energy is transmitted to the leader so that the entire tippet can be gently landed. The fly line 1 is generally coated with a soft resin having a length of 20 m to 30 m, and is partially tapered. Note that a thin, light and strong line called a backing line is wound around the core of the reel 5 on which the fly line 1 is wound, in order to adjust the diameter of the core and as a preliminary extension line of the fly line. The fly line 1 is gradually pulled out from the hand while swinging the fly rod 6 back and forth like a whip in the entire system configured as described above.

The guide 7 fixed to the fly rod 6 spirally winds a wire erecting from the guide fixing portion 8 to form two ring-shaped support portions 9 and 9 and provides a wire turn-up portion 10 in the middle. . A line insertion / removal path 11 is provided between the ring-shaped support portion 9 and the wire folded portion 10. Here, the ring-shaped support portion 9 is configured to be wound at least one or more rounds, and the wire folded portion 10 connected thereto is formed in a U-shape or a V-shape, and the tip 10a thereof is a point of line detachment.

When two wires from the ring-shaped support portion to the guide fixing portion are fixed in parallel to the fly rod, only one fixing portion is used, so that the wire rod can be used as a top guide. The top guide 12 shown in FIG. 3 has the guide fixing portion as a cylindrical tube 13 and the tip of the fly rod 6 is inserted and fixed. The front annular support portion 14 of the top guide 12 is formed to have a larger diameter than the rear annular support portion 15, and the whole is inclined like a rhombus.

When a fly line is inserted into these guides, as shown in FIG.
The fly line 1 that bends in the shape of a letter is
Pull in along the back of 16. At this time, if the fly line 1 is pulled so as to slide in the direction A while slightly applying tension in the direction B in FIG. 4, the fly line 1 enters each ring-shaped support portion while sliding on the wire.

When the fly line 1 is to be removed from the guide, the fly line 1 is bent forward and pulled out so as to pass over the tips 10a and 16a of the folded portions of each wire as shown in FIG. At this time, if the fly line 1 is slid in the direction A while slightly applying tension in the direction B, the fly line 1 can be removed while sliding.

Incidentally, the guide near the hand may be provided with a large or small size in the ring-shaped support portion similarly to the above-mentioned top guide. The guide 17 shown in FIG. 6 makes the ring-shaped support 18 in the hand direction larger than the ring-shaped support 19 in the tip direction. When the fly line 1 is gradually moved far away, the fly line 1 is pulled or returned by hand while swinging the rod 6 back and forth. At that time, the fly line 1 is not bent at an acute angle at only one place of the ring-shaped support portion. There is an effect of dispersing in two places.

The top guide 12 having such a shape is
Even when the fly line 1 is most likely to come off as shown in FIG. 7 and the rod 6 is carried upright, the fly line 1 can be prevented from coming off from the wire turn-up portion 16. That is, since the circle of the ring-shaped support portion 15 on the side close to the cylindrical tube 13 is small and the U-shaped portion is inclined, the more the tension is applied to the fly line 1, the less the possibility that the fly line 1 approaches the wire folded portion 16 and it is difficult to come off.

At the time of fly fishing, while pulling and returning the fly line with the left hand while swinging the fly rod back and forth with the right hand, the fly line is extended little by little by a so-called double hole technique.
It is said that it is difficult to use the above-mentioned guide because the frictional resistance between the guide and the fly line is smaller than that of the conventional guide, and the kinetic inertia flying before and after the fly line is more clearly transmitted to the left hand with the fly line. There is an advantage that the delicate timing of the hole becomes easier to understand, and the learning of the technique of the double hole becomes faster.

This state will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a state in which the rod is curved toward the guide,
FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing a state where the rod is curved in a direction opposite to the guide. When the rod 6 bends toward the guide 7, the rod 6 and the fly line 1 come close to each other. However, if the ends of the ring-shaped support portions 9, 9 are separated from the rod 6, the fly line 1 and the rod 6 hardly come into contact with each other.

In the case of the conventional guide, since there is no supporting portion separated from the rod, the fly line and the rod come into contact with each other, and the friction of the rod deteriorates the slip of the fly line. The effect of this friction can not be neglected in order to pull out a light fly line from the hand, always remove dirt, apply lubricant etc. to reduce resistance even a little, take a curl before use, etc. Various care was needed. However, when a guide having a small frictional resistance as in the present invention is used, the poorer the maintenance of the fly line, the better the guide becomes.

When the rod 6 bends to the opposite side of the guide 7, the fly line 1 is supported by the two ring-shaped support portions 9, 9, and the slip of the soft fly line which has been bent at an acute angle at one point in the past. Badness can be reduced.

The guide described above may be applied to all the guides attached to the rod, or may be applied to some of the guides. Further, the present invention is not limited to fly fishing fishing rods.

[0027]

As described above, in the fishing rod guide of the present invention, since the wire rod folded portion is provided between the two ring-shaped support portions, the exchange of the fishing line becomes easy, and the inserted fishing line has two ring-shaped portions. Since it is supported at two points by the support portion and is substantially in a straight line between them, there is no danger that even if it moves within the guide, it will move from the distal end of the wire turning back portion to its back surface. Therefore, even if the fishing line swings, it is difficult to enter the fishing line insertion / removal path, and there is no risk of damaging the fishing line when the fishing line is inserted. The fishing line support portion of the fishing rod guide according to the second aspect is a two-pointed ring-shaped support portion that is large or small even if the fishing line is bent greatly because one of the loops at the hand or the tip end is smaller than the other. Because it is supported, the burden on the fishing line is reduced.
