Description

  The present invention relates to a fishing line guide that is attached to a fishing rod and guides a fishing line fed from a reel.

  Conventionally, a fishing line guide for inserting and guiding a fishing line fed from a reel at a predetermined interval in the axial direction is mounted on an outer peripheral surface of a fishing rod called an outer guide method. Usually, a fishing line guide is constituted by a frame having an annular holding portion and a support leg portion, and a guide ring attached to the annular holding portion.

  For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a fishing line guide having a structure in which a guide ring is caulked into a grooved metal fitting and attached to a snap ring (a frame having a support leg). The ferrule is composed of a wire, and a notch is formed in the lower portion of the ferrule. In this portion, the ferrule is widened and a guide ring (a grooved fitting) is attached.

Utility Model 1-99152

  In the known guide ring described above, a notch is formed by notching a part of the lower part of the ring-shaped ferrule, but both ends of the ferrule forming the notch are sufficiently elastically deformed. I can't. For this reason, when the tension of the fishing line is applied, the base of the support leg may be distorted and deformed. If the base of the support leg is deformed in this way, the guide ring may fall off or cause thread entanglement.

  The present invention has been made by paying attention to the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a fishing line guide that can moderately ease a load with an annular holding portion of a frame that holds a guide ring.

  In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention provides a fishing line guide including a frame having an annular holding portion and a supporting leg portion, and a guide ring attached in the holding portion, and a notch is formed in the holding portion. Both ends of the holding part forming the cutout part are formed in a tapered shape.

  In the fishing line guide having the above-described configuration, the guide ring is attached to the annular holding portion having the notch portion. Since both ends of the holding part forming the notch are formed in a tapered shape, the annular holding part is easily elastically deformed, and even if a load is applied due to the tension of the fishing line, etc. It is possible to relax, and it becomes possible to prevent deformation of the holding portion. Accordingly, it is possible to effectively prevent the guide ring from falling off, entanglement, and the like.

The front view which shows 3rd Embodiment of the fishing line guide which concerns on this invention.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the fishing line guide according to the present invention will be specifically described.
FIGS. 1 to 3 are views showing a first embodiment of a fishing line guide according to the present invention, FIG. 1 is a front view, FIG. 2 is a side view of the fishing line guide shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. It is the side view of the fishing line guide shown in FIG. 1, and the enlarged view of the principal part.

  The fishing line guide 1 includes a frame 2 having an annular holding portion 2a and a support leg portion 2b, and a guide ring 10 attached in the holding portion 2a.

  The frame 2 can be integrally formed of, for example, titanium (pure Ti), various known titanium alloys, stainless steel, and the like, and as described above, the annular holding portion 2a and the annular holding portion 2a. And a supporting leg 2b extending downward from the holding portion. The support leg portion 2b supports the annular holding portion 2a on both sides in the radial direction, and a pair of leg portions 2d extending so as to approach each other downward on each side portion, and a pair of leg portions The lower end of 2d has a foot 2e bent in a substantially horizontal direction. The foot portion 2e has a mounting surface 2f for a fishing rod on the back side thereof, and the foot portion is fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the fishing rod R with a spool 7 or the like. In addition, after thread winding 7, a resin 8 for thread fixing is attached.

  The annular holding portion 2a of the frame 2 has a width L1 larger than its thickness L2, and has a circular hole 3 to which the guide ring 10 is attached. In addition, the annular holding portion 2a is cut at an arbitrary position (in this embodiment, the lower end position as shown in FIG. 1) with a predetermined gap, so that the hole 3 is formed from the outside. A notch portion 4 is formed which leads to. Each of the ends (claw-shaped protrusions) of the cut annular holding portion 2a is indicated by reference numeral 4a, and the notch portion 4 faces the front end surface 4b of both end portions 4a with a predetermined gap. It is formed by that. The thickness L2 of the holding portion 2a of the frame 2 is the thickness (length) in the front-rear direction in which the fishing line is inserted by attaching the fishing line guide 1 to the fishing rod, and the width L1 is the radial width of the annular holding portion 2a. (Length).

  The both end portions 4a are formed in a tapered shape. Here, as shown in FIG. 1, the tapered shape is one whose width decreases as it moves to the tip in front view, one that decreases in thickness as it moves to the tip, width as it moves to the tip, As long as both thicknesses are reduced, it is sufficient that the rigidity is reduced as it moves to the tip. In this embodiment, each end 4a is configured as shown in FIG. The lower edges 4 c extend in a substantially horizontal direction, and the upper edges are configured as arcs defining the holes 3, thereby forming a tapered shape. In the present embodiment, the upper surface 4d and the lower surface 4e at both end portions 4a also approach each other and become thinner as they move to the tip, and have a tapered shape (see the enlarged view in FIG. 3).

  The frame 2 having the annular holding portion 2a and the supporting leg portion 2b is formed by punching a metal plate into a predetermined shape by press working and bending a predetermined portion. Therefore, each part of the frame 2 has a part formed by the upper and lower surfaces of the metal plate to be pressed and a part formed by the cut surface, and is the front and rear surfaces (the tip side surface and the hand side surface) of the frame 2. For example, the upper surface 4d and the lower surface 4e also correspond to each other) are formed by the upper and lower surfaces of the metal plate, and the thickness portion of the side surface of the frame 2 is formed by the cut surface of the metal plate.

  The guide ring 10 is a circular ring formed of a hard material such as metal or ceramic, and has a structure in which a pair of flanges 10a and 10b are formed along the outer periphery, and a circumferential groove 10c is provided between the flanges. It has become. In the present embodiment, one of the pair of flanges (the flange 10b) is formed high.

  When the guide ring 10 is attached to the holding portion 2a, the guide ring 10 is press-fitted into the annular holding portion 2a from the side of the flange 10a having a low height, as indicated by an arrow in FIG. As described above, the holding portion 2a is easily distorted as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 by the both ends 4a formed in a tapered shape (downward direction D1 as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5). The circumferential groove 10c formed between the pair of flanges 10a and 10b can be easily fitted to the holding portion 2a. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the holding portion 2a is inserted into the inner surface side of the circumferential groove 10c to be fitted, but both end portions 4a of the holding portion 2a are formed in a tapered shape and elastically deformed. Since the structure is easy to perform, the press-fitting operation can be easily performed with a larger deformation than the other parts. Further, at the time of the press-fitting, an adhesive is applied to the inner surface of the circumferential groove 10c or the hole 3 of the holding portion 2a, whereby the guide ring 10 can be firmly fixed to the holding portion 2a.

  In the fixed state of the guide ring described above, as shown in FIG. 1, the tips of both end portions 4a of the holding portion 2a are located on the radially inner side of the peripheral edge of the flange (the flange 10b having a high height), Since it does not protrude to the outside of the flange, the fishing line is prevented from being caught, and the occurrence of thread breakage or the like is prevented. Even if tension is applied to the inserted fishing line, both ends 4a of the holding portion 2a are distorted while being greatly elastically deformed toward the tip, so that the frame itself is difficult to deform and the tension on the fishing line is reduced. The thread breakage is prevented, and the dropout of the guide ring 10 can be effectively suppressed.

  Moreover, since the flange is formed in the guide ring 10 along the outer periphery and the both end portions 4a having the tapered shape of the holding portion 2a are engaged with the flange, the guide ring 10 from the holding portion 2a is engaged. The falling off is prevented, and the both ends 4a are reliably inserted by the flange with a load on the guide ring 10 to be elastically deformed to relieve the tension on the fishing line.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the notch portion 4 is formed below the holding portion 2a, and between the joint portion of the pair of support legs 2b extending from the lower side of the holding portion 2a with respect to the holding portion 2a. Therefore, the holding part 2a of this part is reinforced, and deformation of the other part (upper side) of the holding part 4a due to elastic deformation of both end parts 4a is prevented.

  FIG. 6: shows 2nd Embodiment of the fishing line guide which concerns on this invention, and is a side view and the enlarged view of the principal part.

In this embodiment, the support leg 2b of the frame 2 is configured in the same manner as in the above-described embodiment, but further has two legs 2d ′ extending in the front-rear direction of the fishing rod. At the lower end of each leg portion 2d ', a foot portion 2e' bent in a substantially horizontal direction that is separated from each other is formed. Has been fixed.
Thus, the configuration of the frame 2 can be modified as appropriate.

  Further, the guide ring 10 in the present embodiment has a flange 10b formed on only one side, and both ends 4a of the holding portion 2a are elastically deformed so that the flange 10b of the guide ring 10 is applied to the holding portion 2a to be engaged. I am letting. And after engaging the holding | maintenance part 2a with the flange 10b of the guide ring 10, the guide ring 10 is fixed by adhere | attaching the adhesive agent 9 along the circumferential direction from the side in which the flange is not formed. I am doing so.

  Further, in the both end portions 4a of the holding portion 2a in the present embodiment, the lower edges 4c constituting the respective end portions 4a extend in the substantially horizontal direction, and the upper edges define the holes 3 as in the previous embodiment. By being configured as an arc, it has a tapered shape. Further, the lower surface 4e at both end portions 4a is made flat, and the upper surface 4d is made closer to the lower surface 4e as it moves to the tip, thereby reducing the thickness and making it tapered.

  As described above, if the tip portion 4a of the holding portion 2a is configured so that its rigidity decreases as it moves to the tip, the specific shape of the taper can be appropriately modified. is there.

FIG. 7 is a front view showing a third embodiment of the fishing line guide according to the present invention.
In this embodiment, the end (claw-shaped protrusion) 4a ′ formed on the annular holding portion 2a is formed so that the lower edge 4c ′ is along the hole 3, and the entire end 4a ′ is formed. Further, it is configured to be narrower than the end portion 4a of the above embodiment, and is formed in a tapered shape.

  In such a configuration, the end portion 4a ′ of the holding portion 2a is more easily elastically deformed, so that the guide ring 10 can be easily attached, and the tension on the fishing line is further relaxed to prevent the yarn breakage, and The dropout of the guide ring 10 can be more effectively suppressed.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, It can change variously. For example, the thickness L2 and the width L1 of the end portions 4a and 4a ′ may be the same regardless of whether the thickness L2 is larger or the width L1 is larger, and both end portions 4a and 4a ′ are The cutout 4 may be formed by polymerization without providing a gap, or may be shifted without facing each other. The construction material of the frame constituting the fishing line guide, the configuration of the shape and size of the frame portion, and the like are appropriately changed according to the fishing rod and node portion (general rod, middle rod, tip rod) used. It is possible.
