DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a fishing reel component assembly, and more particularly to a fishing reel component assembly provided inside a reel body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Fishing reels mounted on fishing rods for winding fishing lines mainly include spinning reels, dual bearing reels, and single bearing reels. This type of fishing reel,
It has a reel body mounted on a fishing rod, and a spool for thread winding mounted on the reel body. In a dual bearing reel or a single bearing reel, the spool is rotatably supported by the reel body. In a spinning reel, a spool is mounted to be movable back and forth with respect to the reel body by sliding of a slider of an oscillating mechanism mounted inside the reel body.

In this type of fishing reel, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2000-41543 is used in order to prevent water from entering the inside of the reel body.
As disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. H10-209, there has been known a method in which particles of a water-repellent mixture are dispersed in a volatile solvent together with a binder and applied to a component assembly inside the reel body.

[0004]

In the above-mentioned conventional fishing reel component assembly which has been subjected to the water-repellent treatment, particles of the water-repellent mixture are dispersed and applied to the component assembly together with a binder in a volatile solvent. Therefore, the adhesion to the component assembly is relatively weak. For this reason, especially when a sliding component assembly such as a slider of an oscillating mechanism is subjected to a water-repellent treatment, particles of the water-repellent mixture may be easily separated from the surface of the slider.

An object of the present invention is to provide a highly durable water-repellent treatment to a sliding portion of a component assembly of a fishing reel.

[0006]

A fishing reel component assembly according to a first aspect of the present invention is a fishing reel component assembly provided inside a reel body, and includes a first fishing reel component assembly provided inside the reel body. A first component disposed opposite to the first component;
A second component slidably provided on the component, and a metal thin film layer having water repellency formed on at least one of the opposing surfaces of the first component and the second component.

In this fishing reel component assembly, a metal thin film layer having water repellency is formed on the opposing surfaces of the sliding first and second components. Here, the metal thin film layer impregnated with water repellent, such as silicon resin or fluororesin, has a relatively strong adhesion to the first component and the second component, so that the first component and the second component slide. Even if the opposing surface is rubbed, the metal thin film layer having water repellency is hard to peel off. Therefore, since the sliding portion of the first component and the second component is reliably subjected to the water-repellent treatment, the sliding portion of the component assembly can be subjected to the highly durable water-repellent treatment.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the fishing reel component assembly according to the first aspect.
A base film layer is further provided between at least one of the opposing surfaces of the component and the second component and the metal thin film layer. In this case, the adhesion of the metal thin film layer can be improved, for example, by performing various types of base treatment as the base film layer.

A fishing reel component assembly according to a third aspect of the present invention is the fishing reel component assembly of the first or second aspect, wherein the metal thin film layer is impregnated with a fluororesin. In this case, for example, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTF)
The water-repellent effect can be enhanced by impregnating the electroless nickel plating layer, which is the metal thin film layer, with a fluororesin such as E).

A fishing reel component assembly according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is the fishing reel component assembly according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein one of the first component and the second component is a spool mounted on the reel body. Is a slider of an oscillating mechanism for sliding the slider, and the other of the first component and the second component is a guide shaft for guiding the slider. In this case, the fishing reel is a spinning reel, and a metal thin film layer having water repellency is formed on the sliding portion of the slider and the guide shaft. Water treatment can be applied.

A fishing reel component assembly according to a fifth aspect of the present invention is the fishing reel component assembly according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein one of the first component and the second component is a level mounted on the reel body. A slider of the wind mechanism, the other of the first component and the second component is a guide cylinder for guiding the slider. In this case, the fishing reel is a dual-bearing reel, and since a metal thin film layer having water repellency is formed on the sliding portion of the slider and the guide cylinder, the sliding portion of the slider and the guide cylinder has high durability. Water repellency treatment can be performed.
