Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing rod having a plurality of rod bodies connected in a swing manner. More specifically, the present invention relates to a fishing rod in which specific rod bodies can be connected and fixed to each other in either a stored state or an extended state, and fishing can be performed by changing the length of the entire rod.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional swing-type fishing rod, a plurality of tubular rod bodies can be inserted into the rod body on the rod base side sequentially from the rod body on the tip side. When fishing, each rod body is sequentially pulled out toward the tip side, fitted and fixed, and used as one rod body. On the other hand, at the time of storage, the rod body on the tip side is sequentially stored in the rod body on the rod base side to provide a compact state.

Further, there are conventional swing-out type fishing rods which are devised so that fishing can be performed by changing the length of the entire rod. The fishing rod devised in this way has, for example, a main rod having a fitting female portion on the inner peripheral surface of the tip side end and a first fitting male portion on the outer peripheral surface of the rod base side end, while being near the center in the longitudinal direction. And an upper rod having a second fitting male portion on the outer peripheral surface thereof. Then, in this type of fishing rod, in the state where the original rod connected to the tip side of the original rod is pulled out to the tip side (hereinafter referred to as "extended state"),
In a state in which the fitting female portion is fitted to the first fitting male portion and the upper rod is inserted into the original rod (hereinafter referred to as "stored state"), the fitting female portion becomes the second fitting male portion. It can be fitted.

In this way, the base rod and the base rod can be fitted and fixed to each other in any of the "extended state" and the "stored state", and the length of the entire rod is changed according to the situation. Can be done.

[0005]

By the way, a fishing line guide for guiding the fishing line from the reel is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod at intervals in the axial direction. By arranging such fishing line guides at appropriate intervals in the axial direction, the fishing line is smoothly guided. However, with conventional fishing rods that have been devised so that fishing can be performed by changing the length of the entire rod,
Since the axial length of the rod body changes between the stretched state and the stored state, the axial distance between the fishing line guides also changes. In particular, for fishing rods in which the length is adjusted between the base rod with the reel attached and the base rod, the fishing line closest to the rod base side where the reel and the fishing line derived from the reel are first guided. Special consideration is required to cause a change in the axial distance from the guide. This is because if the axial distance between them is unreasonably widened, various problems may occur such as fishing line fluff, sticking of the fishing line around the rod body, and obstruction of reeling work. is there.

Further, in a fishing rod in which a fishing line guide is arranged on the peripheral surface, the circumferential direction between rod bodies is also important. That is, when the fishing line guide is arranged on the circumferential surface of the rod body as described above, the presence of the reels on the reel seat, the fishing line guide, and the other fishing line guides in the circumferential direction in order to ensure a smooth fishing line. Necessary for out-licensing. And in the conventional fishing rod devised so that the length of the entire rod can be changed to perform fishing, the rod body is put in and out in the stretched state and the stored state,
Each time, the fisherman needs to pay attention to the circumferential direction of the rod body and make the adjustment.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fishing rod which enables a smooth fishing operation while adjusting the entire length of the fishing rod.

[0008]

A fishing rod according to a first aspect of the present invention is a fishing rod in which a plurality of rod bodies are connected in a swinging manner, and has a reel seat on which a reel can be mounted on a peripheral surface and an inner circumference of a tip end side end. A large-diameter rod body having a fitting female part on the surface, and a tip-shaped side of the large-diameter rod body connected in a swinging manner, and it is stored in the extended state and the inside of the large-diameter rod body pulled out to the tip side of the large-diameter rod body. It can be fixed by connecting to the tip side of the large diameter rod body in each of the two stored states, and the first fitting male part that fits into the fitting female part in the extended state is the outer circumference of the rod base side end part. And a small-diameter rod body having a second fitting male portion on the outer peripheral surface on the tip side, the second fitting male portion having a second fitting male portion which is fitted to the fitting female portion in a housed state. A fishing line guide is fixed to the outer peripheral surface between the first fitting male portion and the second fitting male portion of the small diameter rod body. The large-diameter rod body is formed with a split that extends in the axial direction so that the fishing line guide can enter the rod base side from the tip end side portion until it is stored.

With this fishing rod, fishing can be performed in both the stretched state and the stored state. In the stretched state, the first fitting male portion of the small diameter rod body is fitted and fixed to the fitting female portion of the large diameter rod body. On the other hand, in the housed state, the second fitting male portion on the peripheral surface at the predetermined position of the small diameter rod body is fitted and fixed to the fitting female portion inside the large diameter rod body. A fishing line guide is arranged on the peripheral surface of the small diameter rod body, and in the stretched state, the fishing line guide is pulled out to the tip side of the large diameter rod body and exposed to the outside of the small diameter rod body. So, I guide the fishing line from the reel. On the other hand, in the stored state, this fishing line guide penetrates into the split of the large-diameter rod body, moves from the tip end side of the large-diameter rod body to the rod base side, and is exposed to the outside of the large-diameter rod body from the split portion. Then guide the fishing line from the reel.

As described above, in this fishing rod, the fishing line guide is arranged on the peripheral surface of the small diameter rod body on the rod base side from the first fitting male portion even in the stretched state, and the reel and the fishing line guide (most on the rod base side). The axial distance between the fishing line and the fishing line guide) is maintained at an appropriate distance. Further, since the fishing rod guide is inserted into the large-diameter rod body while the small-diameter rod body is accommodated in the large-diameter rod body, the circumferential direction between the large-diameter rod body and the small-diameter rod body is naturally determined. .

The fishing rod of invention 2 is the fishing rod of invention 1, wherein
A protective pipe having an axial split portion that matches the split of the large-diameter rod body is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the tip side end of the large-diameter rod body. In this fishing rod, the protective pipe reinforces the decrease in strength of the tip side portion of the large-diameter rod body in which the crack is formed. It also prevents the tip side of the large-diameter rod body from bending. This protective pipe can be made of a known material such as metal or hard synthetic resin.
Also, the axial length of the protective pipe can be arbitrarily set, and the protective pipe may be arranged in the entire axial range where the split portion is formed, but only on a part of the tip side end of the large diameter rod body. A protective pipe may be arranged.

The second fitting male portion 2a is a portion having a slightly larger diameter than other portions due to overlaying or the like, and a metal ring or the like is arranged as necessary. Then, each fitting male part is fitted to the fitting female part of the base rod 1 and can be fixed to each other in the housed state and the stretched state. Although not shown in the drawing, a stopper ring is arranged inside the base rod 1 adjacent to the butt plug 7 of the base rod 1, and in the stored state, the stopper ring fixes the rod-side end of the top rod 2. You may do it.

The outer peripheral surface of the base rod 2 closer to the base of the rod than the second fitting male portion 2a and the outer peripheral surface of the tip side end of the base rod 2 are
The first fishing line guide 10 and the second fishing line guide 20 are fixed to each other. As shown in FIG. 4, the first fishing line guide 10 has a fixed portion 11 fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the base rod 2, and a standing portion from the fixed portion 11 to the peripheral surface of the base rod 2 and an opening at the head end. It has a main body 12 and a guide ring 13 made of a hard member such as ceramics and fitted in an opening formed in the axial direction of the upper rod 2 at the head end of the main body 12.

The fixing portion 11 is of a pipe type and is arranged on the peripheral surface of the upper rod 2 in a penetrating state, and is fixed to the upper rod 2 with an adhesive or the like. Since the fixed portion 11 of the first fishing line guide 10 is stored in the base rod 1 in the stored state, the fixed portion 11 is stored in the base rod 1 due to the diameter difference between the base rod 2 and the base rod 1 caused by the taper change of the base rod 2. It must be designed within the space that will be created. The shape of the fixing portion 11 is not limited to such a pipe shape, and the fixing portion 11 may be a plate-shaped member that comes into contact with the peripheral surface of the upper rod 2 and may be wound with a thread or the like. It may be fixed to the peripheral surface.
If necessary, this winding thread is coated with a synthetic resin or the like. Due to the above-mentioned space due to the diameter difference between the base rod 1 and the base rod 2, a groove that is partially recessed is formed in the peripheral surface of the base rod 2 in which the fixing portion 11 is arranged. It is also possible to adopt a method of arranging the fixing portion 11 in the groove.

The body portion 12 is a columnar portion that stands upright from the fixed portion 11, and the width thereof is set so that it can be inserted into the groove 1a of the above-mentioned base rod 1.
