Description

  The present invention relates to a fishing rod, and more particularly, to a fishing rod having a reel seat body in which a reel leg mounting surface on which a mounting leg portion of a fishing reel is mounted is formed on one side.

  In general, a reel seat for attaching a fishing reel to a fishing rod has a reel leg mounting surface on the reel seat body on which a mounting leg portion of the reel is mounted, and is opposed to the reel leg mounting surface along the longitudinal direction. With the pair of hoods, the mounting legs of the reel are held on the reel leg mounting surface. Each of the pair of hoods has an opening for receiving the mounting leg, and one of the hoods is formed as a movable hood that moves relative to the reel leg mounting surface and can be fixed at a required position. The reel is attached to the fishing rod by sandwiching the mounting leg between the hoods.

Such a reel sheet body is generally fixed by adhering to a soot tube inserted inside, and even when attached to various scissors having different diameters, It is formed in a pipe shape with an outer diameter that is easy to handle, and further, on the side edge on the little finger side of the gripped hand, at a position opposite to the reel leg mounting surface in the radial direction and close to the rear hood. A fishing rod having a convex portion that is locked to prevent the fishing rod from shifting forward has been developed (for example, see Patent Document 1).
JP 2002-262726 A

  A fishing rod having such a convex portion formed on the reel seat body can prevent the fishing rod from shifting forward by simply gripping it lightly in a natural state without applying force to the thumb. However, since the size of the hand and the grip position differ depending on the angler, there are cases where the hand cannot be gripped in a comfortable state.

  The present invention has been made based on such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a fishing rod that can be stably gripped via a reel sheet even if the size of the hand or the gripping position varies. .

  The fishing rod of the present invention that achieves the above object is a reel on which a rod formed by winding a fiber-reinforced prepreg in which a reinforcing fiber is impregnated with a synthetic resin is inserted into the fishing rod and on which a mounting leg portion of a fishing reel is placed The reel seat main body has a leg mounting surface formed on one side, and the reel seat main body has a fixed hood for holding one end of the mounting leg portion of the fishing reel on the rear side of the reel leg mounting surface. And the recessed part opened outside along the circumferential direction is formed in the back of this fixed hood, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

  In addition, a rod formed by winding a fiber reinforced prepreg impregnated with a synthetic resin in a reinforcing fiber is inserted into the inside, and a reel leg mounting surface for mounting a fishing reel mounting leg is formed on one side. The reel seat body has a fixed hood that holds one end of the mounting leg portion of the fishing reel on the rear side of the reel leg mounting surface, and the rear end portion of the fixed hood. And is mounted on the other side opposite to the fixed hood and the reel leg mounting surface, and extends rearward from the end portion of the reel seat body located on the rear side of the fixed hood. A fishing rod is provided that includes a cover member, and that has a recessed portion that opens outward in the circumferential direction on the rear side of the cover member.

  In such a fishing rod, a spacer member is preferably interposed between the rod and the reel sheet main body.

  The spacer member extends rearward between the flange and the cover member beyond the cover member, and the recessed portion is a rear side end of the cover member disposed on the outer peripheral portion of the spacer member. And a flexible member disposed opposite to the rear side end of the cover member, and a sleeve harder than the cover member is formed between the rear side end of the cover member and the front side end of the flexible member. It may be provided in the outer peripheral part of the said spacer member between parts.

  In any case, it is preferable that the hollow portion is disposed in a range of 20 to 50 mm rearward from the opening portion of the fixed hood that accommodates one end side of the mounting leg portion of the fishing reel.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the scissors inserted in the said reel sheet main body has the outer diameter of the range of 5 mm-13 mm in the position close | similar to the rear-end part of a reel sheet main body.

  Furthermore, it is preferable that the front side and the rear side of the recess have substantially the same outer diameter.

  According to the fishing rod of the present invention, a recess that opens outward along the circumferential direction is formed behind the fixed hood, so that a hand that grips a reel seat equipped with a fishing reel is gripped. A desired portion such as a palm or a little finger can be applied to the indented portion, so that even if the size of the hand or the gripping position varies, it can be gripped stably via the reel sheet.

  In addition, a cover member is provided extending rearward from the end portion of the reel seat body located on the rear side of the fixed hood, and a recessed portion that opens outward in the circumferential direction is provided on the rear side of the cover member. In the case of a fishing rod to be formed, in addition to being able to stably hold via the reel sheet even if the size of the hand and the holding position vary, the cover member is made of a material other than the reel sheet main body, for example, the grip By forming it with a material that is soft and not cold, and is difficult to slip, the bending rigidity can be made smaller than that of the reel sheet body, and the stress acting on the heel can be reduced.

  When a spacer member is inserted between the reel sheet main body and the rod, the fishing rod can be reduced in weight, and the reel sheet main body has a size and shape that allows the angler to easily grasp the outer shape. In addition, a fishing rod having a small-diameter rod such as a luer rod can be used.

  When a sleeve harder than the cover member is provided on the outer peripheral portion of the spacer member between the rear end portion of the cover member and the front end portion of the flexible member, for example, a fishing rod is set up. When gripping with a strong force such as interacting with the fish in a wet state, the gripping hand can be gripped with a sense of stability.

  When the dent is located within the range of 20 mm to 50 mm behind the opening of the fixed hood that houses one end of the mounting leg of the fishing reel, the size and gripping position of the fisherman's hand varies. Even so, the hand can be brought into contact with the recess.

  When the rod inserted into the reel sheet main body has an outer diameter in the range of 5 mm to 13 mm at a position close to the rear end of the reel sheet main body, for example, a small-diameter rod such as a luer rod is used. Even so, the recessed portion can be formed without lengthening the reel sheet main body or attaching another member, and the grip feeling or the stability when gripped is increased.

  In particular, when the front side and the rear side of the hollow portion have substantially the same outer diameter, the wrist side of the palm that has been gripped can be brought into contact in a stable state.

1 and 2 show the original or rear side of a fishing rod 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
This fishing rod 10 is formed as a luer rod, and is wound on the front side or the rear side of the rod 8 that is formed into a hollow structure or a solid structure by winding a fiber reinforced prepreg in which a reinforcing fiber is impregnated with a synthetic resin. A reel sheet 12 for mounting a spinning reel (not shown) and a grip 14 disposed on the rear end side of the reel sheet 12 are provided. The flange 8 can be one having various outer diameters in the range of 5 mm to 13 mm, for example, at a position close to the rear end portion of the reel sheet 12. The grip 14 provided on the rear side of the reel sheet 12 is made of soft resin such as ethylene vinyl acetate resin, cork, foamed material, rubber, elastomer, etc. that are easy to grip when gripped with a gripping hand. It is preferable to form with the material which has a softness | flexibility. In this embodiment, the grip 14 is disposed at a position spaced rearward from the reel sheet 12, and a protective sleeve 16 that protects the outer surface of the flange 8 is disposed between the reel sheet 12 and the grip 14. It is.

  The reel sheet 12 of this embodiment includes a reel sheet main body 18 having a hollow tubular structure, and is a nut member that is screwed to a screw portion (not shown) formed on one end side in the axial direction, for example, the front end side of the reel sheet main body 18. 20, the movable hood 22 having an opening at the rear is attached so as to be movable along the axial direction. A spacer member 24 is inserted between the reel sheet main body 18 and the flange 8 inserted therein. As will be described later, the spacer member 24 prevents direct contact between the reel sheet body 18 formed of a hard material and the flange 8, and prevents excessive stress from acting on the flange 8, for example. It is preferably formed in a hollow structure with a lightweight material such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), urethane, or a cork, or a softer material than the collar 8. The flange 8, the spacer member 24, and the reel sheet main body 18 are fixed to each other in a strong integrated structure using, for example, an adhesive.

  By inserting such a spacer member 24 between the reel sheet main body 18 and the rod 8, the fishing rod 10 can be reduced in weight, and the angler can easily grasp the outer shape of the reel sheet main body 18. While maintaining the size and shape, as described above, various outer diameters of lure rods such as baths and sea basses, for example, from those having a thin outer diameter of 5 mm to those having a relatively thick outer diameter of 13 mm, for example. Can be used for fishing rods having

  The reel sheet main body 18 of the present embodiment is made of a rigid cylinder made of an appropriate material such as a structural synthetic resin (for example, ABS, polyamide, polystyrene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, etc.) or a metal (for example, SUS, aluminum, titanium, brass, etc.). A reel leg mounting surface 26 for mounting the fishing reel mounting leg 6 (see FIG. 5) is formed on one side shown below in the figure. Further, the reel seat body 18 is integrally provided with a fixed hood 30 having an opening 28 opened toward the moving hood 22. Contrary to the opening of the moving hood 22, the opening 28 of the fixed hood 30 gradually decreases in height toward the rear end side, and the foot 6 a ( (See FIG. 5) When one end is pressed inward, the mounting leg 6 is urged together with the moving hood 22 toward the reel leg mounting surface 26 side. The fixed hood 30 of the present embodiment is formed integrally with the reel seat body 18. Instead of this, the reel sheet body 18 may be formed separately from a metal or hard synthetic resin, and may be firmly fixed to the reel sheet body 18. When it is made of metal, it is preferable to dispose a resin member at a portion that contacts the foot portion 6a of the mounting leg 6 to prevent damage to each member due to contact between the metals.

  The reel sheet main body 18 has an extension 18a extending further rearward from a fixed hood 30 disposed on the rear side of the reel leg mounting surface 26, and extends in the circumferential direction along the outer periphery of the extension 18a. Thus, a circumferential groove-like depression 32 that opens outward in the radial direction is formed. The hollow portion 32 of this embodiment is formed by a front wall portion 32a, a rear wall portion 32b, and a cylindrical bottom wall portion 32c formed by frustoconical surfaces inclined in opposite directions, and is formed by a fisherman's Even if the size or gripping position of the hand varies, the front wall portion 32a of the recess 32 from the opening 28 of the fixed hood 30 is, for example, 20 mm or more so that the hand can be brought into contact with the recess 32 and locked. Thus, it is preferable to form the rear wall portion 32b in a range of, for example, less than 50 mm. Further, the outer diameter D1 of the front cylindrical portion 34 and the outer diameter D2 of the rear cylindrical portion 36 between the hollow portion 32 and the fixed hood 30 are in a state in which the wrist side of the gripped palm is stable. In order to make contact possible, it is preferable to form them with substantially the same size. In particular, the outer diameters D1 and D2 are formed in a range of 18 mm to 25 mm, and the difference is within about ± 2%. Therefore, it can be held in a stable state.

  Such a hollow portion 32 can be formed in an appropriate size as long as it can lock a required portion such as a palm or a finger, but the axial length is formed in a range of 8 to 25 mm, for example. The depth, that is, the difference in radius between the cylindrical portions 34 and 36 and the bottom wall portion 32c is preferably formed in the range of 1 mm to 4 mm. In addition, a portion where a fisher's hand hits, for example, between the front cylindrical portion 34 and the front wall portion 32a, between the rear cylindrical portion 36 and the rear wall portion 32b, and between the rear cylindrical portion 36 and the rear side. It is preferable that shallow circumferential grooves 40 and chamfers are formed between the end face 38 and sharp corners not to be formed.

  Thus, when the fishing rod 10 is operated with the fishing reel attached, the reel seat body 18 is further extended rearward from the fixed hood 30 and the recess 32 is formed in the extended portion. For example, the fishing reel mounting leg 6 (FIG. 5) protruding from the reel leg mounting surface 26 is positioned between the index finger and the middle finger, between the middle finger and the ring finger, or between the ring finger and the little finger. Even when sandwiched and held, the depression 32 can be pressed against the palm of the hand holding the depression 32 and can be locked in a state of being bitten into the depression 32. That is, even if the size or gripping position of the hand fluctuates, a desired part such as the palm or little finger of the hand to be gripped can be applied to the recess and stably gripped via the reel sheet.

  For this reason, while supporting the force of the reel seat 12 and hence the fishing rod 10 in the rotational direction through the mounting leg portion 6 of the fishing reel, the force acting along the longitudinal direction, that is, the longitudinal direction of the fishing rod 10 is supported through the recess 32. Can do. Supports especially the force in the front-rear direction acting on the reel seat body 18 and the rod 8 through the recess 32 when the fishing rod is operated after casting or when the fishing rod is bent by a load. Moreover, since the force acting on the reel sheet main body 18 is transmitted to the flange 8 via the spacer member 24 formed of a foam material, the stress on the flange 8 does not act intensively. .

3 to 5 show the original side of a fishing rod 10 according to another embodiment. In this embodiment, since it is basically the same as that of the above-described embodiment, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.
The reel sheet main body 18 of the present embodiment terminates at the rear end portion of the fixed hood 30, and the extension portion 18a in the above-described embodiment is not provided. The side facing the reel leg mounting surface 26 is formed in a thin-walled structure, and a cut-out portion 42 having a wedge-shaped cross section is formed on the end surface on the rear end side.

  As described above, the fixed hood 30 formed on one side of the reel sheet main body 18 and the other side facing the reel leg mounting surface 26 are connected to the end portion 19 of the reel sheet main body 18 located on the rear side of the fixed hood 30. Also, a cover member 44 extending rearward and a flexible member 46 disposed to face the rear side end of the cover member 44 are provided. In this cover member 44, the rear side portion of the end portion 19 of the reel sheet body 18 forms a front cylindrical portion 34, and the flexible member 46 forms a rear cylindrical portion 36. Between the formed front side cylindrical part 34 and the rear side cylindrical part 36 formed of the flexible member 46, a recessed part 32 that opens outward along the circumferential direction is formed.

  As shown in FIG. 4 in an enlarged manner, in this embodiment, the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 are respectively fixed on the spacer member 24 by the fixing rings 48a, 48b, and 48c. A cylindrical sleeve 50 covering the outer periphery of the spacer member 24 is disposed between the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46, and both ends are held by fixing rings 48a and 48b. Therefore, the front wall portion 32 a and the rear wall portion 32 b of the recess portion 32 are formed by the fixing rings 48 a and 48 b, and the bottom wall portion 32 c is formed by the sleeve 50.

  The cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 are formed of a material different from the above-described hard material forming the reel sheet main body 18, for example, a material that is soft and not cold and that is hard to slip. The material forming the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 is preferably a flexible material such as rubber, elastomer, EVA or the like. The sleeve 50 forming the bottom wall portion 32c of the recess 32 is preferably formed of a material harder than the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46, such as FRP or metal. The fixing rings 48a, 48b, and 48c are preferably formed of a material having the same hardness as or higher than that of the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 in order to ensure the strength of the grip portion. It is also possible to omit it. When these fixing rings 48a, 48b, and 48c are omitted, the cover member 44, the flexible member 46, and the sleeve 50 may be directly fixed on the spacer member 24 with an adhesive or the like.

  As shown in FIG. 5, when gripping this reel seat 12A, if it is gripped between the middle finger and the ring finger of the hand gripping the fishing leg mounting leg 6, the substantially central part of the palm is It comes into contact with the cover member 44 so that the wrist side portion (palm root) on the little finger side bites into the recessed portion 32. On the other hand, when the attachment leg portion 6 is sandwiched and held between the ring finger and the little finger or the index finger and the middle finger, a portion closer to the wrist or a portion closer to the little finger comes into contact with the hollow portion 32. Therefore, even when the size of the hand or the gripping position changes, an appropriate part such as a palm or a little finger can be brought into contact with the indented portion 32 so that the hand can be securely gripped.

  Further, since the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 formed of a flexible material are provided on the rear side of the fixed hood 30, the bending rigidity of the rear side portion of the reel sheet 12 </ b> A is bent by the flange 8. It becomes a thing close to rigidity and does not hinder the flexibility of the flange 8. Further, since the reel sheet 12A itself has flexibility particularly in the vicinity of the recessed portion 32, stress concentration is unlikely to occur in the flange 8. In particular, since the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 formed of a flexible material are disposed on the little finger side that is strongly gripped, the gripping property is excellent.

  Further, even when the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 are strongly held, the sleeve 50 formed of a material harder than the cover member 44 is used as the bottom wall portion 32c of the recess portion 32, such as a foam material. The sleeve 50 is gripped even when gripping with a strong force such as exchanging with the fish while the fishing rod 10 is standing, for example, by covering the outer periphery of the spacer member 24 formed by It is possible to prevent the hand from shifting in the front-rear direction or the up-down direction, to give a sense of stability, and to securely grip.

  In the above-described embodiment, the cover member 44 and the flexible member 46 are formed as independent members, but they may be formed of the same material in an integrated structure.
