  In the conventional rotor, when the handle is rotated clockwise, the rotor rotates in the yarn winding direction, that is, clockwise (right-handed) when viewed from the front of the reel. However, depending on the preference of the fisherman, when the handle is rotated clockwise, a rotor is required in which the thread winding direction rotates counterclockwise (left-handed) when viewed from the front of the reel. To configure such a counterclockwise rotating rotor, each member of the rotor, the rotor driving mechanism and the bale reversing mechanism is formed into a mirror image with respect to each member of the rotor rotating clockwise. Need to do. For example, the first rotor arm of the rotor body in which the toggle spring mechanism of the bale reversing mechanism is accommodated is formed with an accommodation recess for accommodating the toggle spring mechanism. Since each of the storage recesses has a mirror image shape, it is necessary to form a rotor body having a dedicated storage recess for clockwise rotation and counterclockwise rotation. Further, in many cases, the rotor body is integrally formed with the support portion, the first rotor arm, and the second rotor arm by molding, but the mold for molding is clockwise and the counterclockwise rotor body. When each of the two types of the rotor main body for rotation is manufactured, in particular, since the mold of the rotor main body is relatively large, there is a possibility that the manufacturing cost may be drastically increased.
