Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fishing rod used for fishing, and more particularly to a fishing rod in which a reel is mounted on a reel sheet of a base rod and a fishing line from the reel is guided to a tip side by a fishing line guide.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional fishing rod of the so-called "outer rod" has, for example, the following configuration. That is, in such a fishing rod, a plurality of rod bodies are connected to each other in a swing type or a parallel type to form one fishing rod, and a fishing line guide is fixed to the circumferential surface of each rod body at intervals in the axial direction. is doing. This fishing line guide has a main body (frame) made of metal or synthetic resin, and an axial through hole is provided in a part of this frame, and a guide ring made of a hard material such as ceramics is fitted into this through hole. It is rare.
In such a fishing rod, the fishing line from the reel is sequentially inserted into the guide ring of each fishing line guide to guide the fishing line to the tip side.

A fishing rod of the so-called "middle threading rod" has, for example, the following configuration. That is, in such a fishing rod, a plurality of rod bodies are connected in a swing-out form or a side-by-side form in the same manner as the above-mentioned outer fishing rod, but each rod body has a fishing line passage through which the fishing line can be inserted inside the rod body.
Then, a fishing line introducing port is provided on the peripheral surface of the rod body on the rod side, and the fishing line from the reel is guided to the fishing line passage from this fishing line introducing port. The fishing line is inserted through the fishing line passage of each rod body and led out to the outside from the tip end side end. Even with such a fishing rod,
A fishing line guide is arranged on the fishing line introducing port or on the rod base side thereof. After guiding the fishing line from the reel to the fishing line guide,
It is inserted into the rod body from the fishing line introduction port.

As described above, in various conventional fishing rods, the fishing line guide plays an important function.

[0005]

In the fishing line guide for such a fishing rod, one of the fishing line guides that plays an especially important role is located closest to the rod base side, and the fishing line from the reel is the first. Receive (fishing line from reel jumps in first)
A guide (in the present specification, referred to as a "fishing line diving guide") (note that this guide is the only one arranged for a hollow fishing rod). For example, when a spinning reel is used, since the fishing line is led out from the reel in a spiral shape, the fishing line dive guide has an important function of converging and stabilizing such a spiral movement of the fishing line.

As described above, since the fishing line jumping guide directly receives the fishing line led out from the reel and has the above-described function, troubles with the fishing line easily occur. For example, it has been reported that, when the fishing line is released during casting, the fishing line is cut due to the stress between the fishing line dive guide and the fishing line. An object of the present invention is to provide a fishing rod that suppresses troubles of a fishing line and has excellent operability.

[0007]

A fishing rod according to a first aspect of the present invention is a fishing rod used for fishing, which has a reel seat on the peripheral surface of the rod base side on which a reel can be detachably attached and the tip side of the rod. And a fishing line jumping guide for guiding the fishing line led out from the reel, which is arranged on the peripheral surface of the original rod or the other rod body.

The fishing line jumping guide is fixed to the main body portion having a through hole penetrating in the axial direction and the peripheral surface of the main rod or another rod body which is a portion continuous with the main body portion. A fixed portion, an elastic sleeve that communicates with the through hole of the main body portion and extends toward the rod base side, and a guide ring that is fixed to the rod-side end edge of the elastic sleeve. In this fishing rod, the fishing line from the reel is first guided toward the fishing line jumping guide, first guided by the fishing line jumping guide, and guided to the tip side. For more information,
The fishing line from the reel is guided into the elastic sleeve through the guide ring, reaches the tip side as it is, and is guided to the tip side through the through hole of the main body.

In this case, the fishing line that is spirally and vigorously drawn out from the reel first comes into contact with the guide ring. The guide ring attached to the rod-side end of the elastic sleeve absorbs the axial or circumferential stress received from the fishing line. That is, the guide ring can vibrate or move axially or circumferentially by the elasticity of the elastic sleeve, and absorbs stress from the fishing line. Therefore, the spiral of the fishing line can be smoothly converged, and the cutting of the fishing line can be reduced.

The fishing rod of the invention 2 is the fishing rod of the invention 1,
The elastic sleeve is a coil spring or a rubber tube.
Due to the elasticity of such coil springs and rubber tubes,
The stress between the guide ring attached to the edge on the rod base side and the fishing line is reduced.
