TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a fishing rod, and more particularly, to a fishing rod having a coating layer formed on a surface thereof.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Generally, in order to improve the operability of a fishing rod, a non-slip is provided on a portion operated by hand, such as a grip portion of the fishing rod.
Various means are employed as such a non-slip of a fishing rod, for example, a synthetic resin-based paint is mixed with a non-slip material of thermoplastic synthetic resin fine particles and painted on a required portion of the fishing rod, and an outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod is used. And a non-slip material coated with a synthetic resin paint (for example, see Patent Document 1).
Further, there is a fishing rod in which a coating layer made of an elastic resin binder and spherical elastic resin resin particles having similar characteristic values is formed on the surface of a grip portion of a fishing rod (for example, see Patent Document 2).

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the fishing rod described in Patent Literature 1, since the non-slip material is covered with the synthetic resin paint, the anti-slip effect is greatly affected by the degree of unevenness formed by fine particles in the synthetic resin paint. It is extremely difficult to control the overlapping state of the fine particles or the uneven distribution state of the fine particles in the paint, and it is therefore difficult to obtain the required anti-slip effect.
Further, in the case of the fishing rod described in Patent Document 2, even if the characteristic values of the elastic resin binder and the resin particles are close to each other, an excellent anti-slip effect cannot be reliably obtained.
[0006]
In particular, when gripping a slippery fishing rod for a long time, it is easy to get tired because unnecessary force is applied, and the operability is poor.
The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is possible to obtain a suitable feel when gripping, and it is difficult for a hand to be tired even when used for a long time, a non-slip effect and its durability The aim is to provide a fishing rod with a high height.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The fishing rod of the present invention that achieves the above object has a coating layer formed on the surface of a rod tube, and this coating layer mixes a myriad of anti-slip particles into a base material formed of a resin, thereby causing the slipping of these particles. It is characterized by having an outer surface formed by an irregularly shaped uneven surface in which a part of the stopper particles is projected from the base material.
Further, according to the present invention, the coating layer formed on the rod tube side mixes a myriad of non-slip particles into the base material formed of the resin, and these anti-slip particles become sharp and irregular irregularities. The outer surface of the coating layer has an irregular shape and has an irregular surface, or a myriad of anti-slip particles are mixed in a base material formed of a resin layer, and the mixing ratio of these anti-slip particles in the base material Is provided on the outer surface side of the coating layer larger than the rod tube side.
[0008]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
FIG. 1A shows an entire fishing rod 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The fishing rod 10 according to the present embodiment is formed as, for example, a swing-out type fishing rod in which small-diameter rod pipes are sequentially accommodated in large-diameter rod pipes. As shown in FIG. And a plurality of middle rod pipes 14, for example, three, and the largest diameter original rod pipe 16, and a grip portion 18 to be gripped by the angler is formed on the rod bottom side of the original rod pipe 16. It is. The fishing rod 10 is formed, for example, as a fishing rod suitable for sea fishing, and a spinning reel for storing fishing lines is mounted as a fishing reel 8 on a reel sheet 20 formed on the original rod tube 16. Instead of the spinning reel, it is also possible to use a double-axis reel (not shown).
[0009]
The fishing rod 10 of the present embodiment uses a fiber-reinforced prepreg (hereinafter, simply referred to as a prepreg) in which a reinforcing resin such as a carbon fiber is impregnated with a synthetic resin such as an epoxy resin in a circumferential direction, an axial direction, or an axial line as appropriate. It is formed from a hollow rod tube in which a plurality of main body layers are laminated and wound in a direction parallel to an inclined deflection direction. Instead of this, the small-diameter rod tube 12 is not limited to such a hollow structure, but may be formed to have a solid structure capable of largely bending a fishing rod. Needless to say, such a rod pipe may employ not only the swing-out type but also any other appropriate joining type such as a parallel joining type or an inro joining type.
[0010]
Further, a fishing line guide 20 for preventing the fishing line from adhering to the outer surface of the rod tube is fixed to the fishing rod 10 at a predetermined interval toward the tip of the fishing rod 10 on the same side as the fishing reel 8. A top guide 24 is fixed to the tip of the tip rod 12. These fishing line guides 20 include a fixed guide fixed to the distal end side of each rod pipe, and a guide stop position 26 (1) at an intermediate portion when loosely fitted to the rod pipe and shaken from a large diameter rod pipe. (Only one is shown).
[0011]
The surface portion of such a fishing rod 10 is provided with a non-slip portion at a portion to be gripped by hand during operation.
In the case of the fishing rod 10 shown in FIG. 1A, the grip portion 18, the peripheral portion of the reel sheet 20, the guide stop position 26 of each floating guide 22, and the front and rear portions of the fitting portion 28 of the adjacent rod pipe. That is, they are provided at the front end portion 28a of the large diameter rod tube and at the rear end portion 28b of the small diameter rod tube. As shown in FIG. 1B in an enlarged manner, the grip portion 18 of the fishing rod 10 is formed by fitting, for example, a flexible member to a rod end of the original rod tube 16. A non-slip 30 is formed on the outer peripheral portion of. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1C, when the grip portion 18 is formed integrally with the rod tube, the non-slip 30 may be formed directly on the rod tube which is the original rod tube 16, for example. In addition, for example, it can also be formed in the buttocks 17.
[0012]
Such a non-slip 30 enhances the grip of the grip portion 18 and the operability of the fishing rod 10. Further, when provided at the periphery of the reel sheet 20, the attachment and detachment of the fishing reel 8 is facilitated, and when provided at the guide stop position 26, the rotation and forward / backward movement of the floating guide 22 are prevented. In addition, the non-slip 30 provided at the front and rear portions of the fitting portion 28 facilitates the swinging operation and the storing operation of the rod pipe, and when the non-slip 30 is provided on the butt plug 17, the detachability of the butt plug 17 is improved. In particular, even in the state of being wet with water or the state of fish being slimy and slippery, it is possible to easily operate these parts.
[0013]
FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 show, on an enlarged scale, a non-slip 30 formed directly on the grip portion 18 of the original rod tube 16 among such non-slip types.
As shown in FIG. 2, the outer surface of the non-slip 30 forms an irregularly shaped uneven surface having a convex portion shown in black and a concave portion shown in white, and this uneven surface is formed as shown in FIG. , Formed on the outer surface of the coating layer 32 formed on the surface of the original rod tube 16. In order to form the uneven surface, the coating layer 32 is formed of a base rod made of natural rubber, urethane rubber, chloroprene rubber, epoxy resin, urethane resin, acrylic urethane resin, polyester resin, fluororesin, or polyethylene resin. A large number of non-slip particles 36 are mixed in a base material 34 having high adhesion to the base material 16, and a part of these non-slip particles 36 protrudes from the surface of the base material 34 and is convex as shown in FIG. Form a part.
[0014]
The non-slip particles 36 mixed into the base material 34 are made of a soft material having a lower hardness than the base material 34 such as elastomer, rubber (natural or synthetic) or cork, and have a smooth surface on the outside. Preferably, it has a sharp and irregularly contoured shape, such as a lava block, a rugged rock, or a piece of chopped wood. Further, the size of these non-slip particles 36 is preferably formed in a range of approximately 100 μm to 500 μm. If the non-slip particles 36 are smaller than this range, the portion protruding from the base material 34 will be small, and the anti-slip effect will be small. Conversely, if it is too large, the stimulation given to the hand will be too strong. Because of
[0015]
When the coating layer 32 is formed, the base material 34 into which such non-slip particles 36 are mixed is formed on the surface of the base material, for example, the original rod tube 16 to a thickness of, for example, about 100 to 300 μm. Even if the film thickness is large, the non-slip particles 36 also function as a buffer material, so that the coating film is not easily broken. The effect of improving the durability is obtained.
[0016]
After the base material 34 has hardened, the surface of the coating layer 32 is polished to remove the base material 34 covering the surface of the non-slip particles 36, thereby forming an uneven surface from which the non-slip particles 36 protrude. Since the outer surface of the anti-slip particle 36 has an irregular uneven shape, the anti-slip particle 36 meshes with the base material 34 to obtain a strong anchor effect. Therefore, these non-slip particles 36 do not fall off from the base material 34 when the surface of the coating layer 32 is polished or used. In addition to the case where the non-slip particles 36 protrude from the base material 34, the anti-slip particles 36 may be polished in a state of being recessed from the surface of the base material 34. The grip with the anti-slip particles 36 further facilitates gripping. The step of the dent is preferably about 10 to 150 μm in consideration of the degree of biting of the hand. Even in this case, the outer surface of the coating layer 32 is formed as an irregularly shaped uneven surface.
[0017]
Since the surface of the coating layer 32 that forms the anti-slip 30 is exposed with the anti-slip particles 36 that are softer than the base material 34, a suitable feel can be obtained when touched by hand. The uneven surface ensures that the gripped hand holds the non-slip 30 without the need to apply unnecessary force, thereby suppressing hand fatigue even when used for a long time. Furthermore, since the non-slip particles 36 having an irregular outer shape are held in the harder base material 34, these anti-slip particles 36 maintain excellent anti-slip effect for a long period of time. Is provided. Then, even if the anti-slip particles 36 fall off, the concave portions in the base material 34 maintain the uneven surface of the outer surface of the coating layer 32.
[0018]
In addition, the coating layer 32 may be provided directly on the base material such as the original rod tube 16 or the like, and one or more base layers (not shown) may be provided therebetween. By providing such an underlayer, the adhesion can be improved, or the design variation can be expanded. Further, a water-repellent layer (not shown) may be provided on the outer surface of the coating layer 32. In this case, the water-repellent layer can be formed by an appropriate method using an appropriate material as long as the unevenness of the coating layer 32 is maintained. By providing such a water-repellent layer, it is possible to prevent water droplets from adhering to the anti-slip 30 and further improve the anti-slip effect by a synergistic effect with the uneven surface.
[0019]
In FIG. 4, a base material 34 of the coating layer 32 is brush-coated on the surface of the original rod tube 16 in advance, and non-slip particles 36 are applied to the base material 34 before the base material 34 is cured. The large irregularities formed on the surface of the base material 34 and the sharp and irregular contours of the anti-slip particles 36 protruding from the surface of the base material 34 by brushing further increase the anti-slip effect. Also in this case, the non-slip particles 36 exposed from the base material 34 give a suitable feeling to the hand by protruding the dense convex portions. At this time, if the non-slip particles 36 are vigorously collided with the base material by using air pressure or the like, the particles are disposed slightly concave.
[0020]
When the uneven surface of the non-slip particles 36 forms a sharp uneven surface so that the hand becomes painful, the outer surface of the coating layer 32 may be smoothed to some extent by, for example, squeezing paint or the like. The stop particles 36 may be dusted.
[0021]
FIG. 5 shows the non-slip particles 36 concentrated on the outer surface side of the coating layer 32, and these non-slip particles 36 are exposed from the base material 34. Such a coating layer 32 can apply the base material 34 and then sprinkle the non-slip particles 36 thereon, so that the non-slip particles 36 can be concentratedly arranged on the outer surface side of the base material 34. Conversely, the coating layer 32 may be pressed or rolled on the aggregate of the non-slip particles 36 developed in layers.
[0022]
After the base material 34 has hardened, the outer surface of the coating layer 32 is polished to form the non-slip 30 in which the non-slip particles 36 project substantially uniformly from the surface of the base material 34. In this case, the exposed top surface of the anti-slip particles 36 can be formed flat.
[0023]
FIG. 6 shows a non-slip 30 provided on a large-diameter member 38 such as a flexible member fitted to the original rod tube 16. Such an expanded member 38 can be formed of a hard member such as a fiber-reinforced resin, a metal, or a hard synthetic resin, in addition to a flexible member such as a cork, a foaming agent, a synthetic resin, or a thread. . When such a large-diameter member 38 is formed in a predetermined shape, it is fixed to a base material by bonding or the like. Moreover, you may form by winding a tape-shaped long member around a base material.
[0024]
FIG. 7 is basically the same as the non-slip shown in FIG. 3 except that irregularities are formed on the top of the non-slip particles 36, that is, the top exposed from the base material 34. Such irregularities on the top of the non-slip particles 36 can be formed by polishing with sandpaper having a roughness of about # 100 to # 800, for example. The combination of the unevenness formed on the outer surface of the base material 34 by the non-slip particles 36 and the fine unevenness formed on the top of each anti-slip particle 36 can improve the anti-slip effect.
[0025]
FIG. 8 shows the non-slip particles 36 mixed in the base material 34. These non-slip particles 36 are densely arranged in the base material 34 and have various external shapes. These non-slip particles 36 may be not only the above-mentioned lump-shaped particles but also flat particles as long as they have an irregular outer shape. In any case, by having a relatively large particle size, for example, when squeezing, the raised portions or the corners are raised in a direction away from the surface of the base material, thereby causing the outer surface of the coating layer 32 to have an uneven surface. And
[0026]
The non-slip particles 36 forming the non-slip 30 can be formed by any appropriate means as long as the non-slip particles 36 form the irregular uneven shape as described above. For example, the above-mentioned elastomer, rubber, cork or the like may be formed by grinding or finely crushing. Moreover, you may freeze and grind.
[0027]
In the above description, the base rod tube 16 has been described as a base material. However, such a base material may be provided in addition to the base rod tube 16, the center rod tube 14, the reel sheet 20, or the bottom depending on the portion where the anti-slip 30 is provided. Obviously, it is the stopper 17.
[0028]
