Description

  The present invention relates to a structure of a fishing rod holding device that detachably supports a fishing rod with respect to a hull or the like.

  In boat fishing, a fishing rod is generally supported on a ship edge via a fishing rod holding device (see, for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2). The fishing rod holding device has a main body fixed to the ship's rim and a head portion provided on the upper portion of the main body.

  The head portion includes a seat member on which a fishing rod is placed and a clamping member that cooperates with the seat member to clamp a predetermined portion (usually a bat portion) of the fishing rod. The clamping member is screwed to the sheet member directly (see Patent Document 1) or via a tightening nut (see Patent Document 2), and can be brought into and out of contact with the sheet member. Yes. And when a clamping member adjoins to a sheet | seat member, a fishing rod is inserted | pinched between both and the said fishing rod is fixed to a head part. The fishing rod is detached from the head portion when the clamping member is separated from the sheet member.

  The head portion is attached to the main body via a lock mechanism in a state where the fishing rod is sandwiched. When the head portion is locked to the main body, the fishing rod is fixed to the ship's rim, and when the lock is released and the head portion is removed from the main body, the angler can freely operate the fishing rod. .

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a fishing rod holding structure by a conventional fishing rod holding device.

  The ease and certainty of the operation of attaching and detaching the head part are extremely important in actual fishing. This is because if the attachment and detachment work is not easy, the mechanism is not easily turned, and if the head is not securely locked, the fishing rod will fall into the water together with the reel and the mechanism.

  FIG. 1A shows a support structure by a fishing rod holding device disclosed in Patent Document 1. FIG. In this support structure, a stud 13 provided on the head portion 12 side is inserted into a socket 11 provided on the main body 10 side from above. Then, when the lock lever 14 provided on the main body 10 side is engaged with the stud 13, the head portion 12 is locked to the main body 10. When the fisherman operates the lock lever 14, the lock lever 14 and the stud 13 are disengaged, and the fishing rod 15 is removed together with the head portion 12.

  FIG. 2B shows a support structure by a fishing rod holding device disclosed in Patent Document 2. In this support structure, a socket 19 provided on the head portion 18 side is covered with a stud 17 provided on the main body 16 side from above. Then, the lock lever 20 provided on the head portion 18 side engages with the stud 17, whereby the head portion 18 is locked to the main body 16. When the fisherman operates the lock lever 20, the lock lever 20 and the stud 17 are disengaged, and the fishing rod 15 is removed together with the head portion 18.

Japanese Patent No. 4484786 Japanese Patent No. 4240334

  In the fishing rod holding device disclosed in FIG. 5B, when the angler performs an operation of setting the fishing rod 15 on the fishing rod holding device, the socket 19 is put on the stud 17 from above. Since it is difficult to visually check the state in which the socket 19 is placed on the stud 17, there is a problem that the work of attaching and detaching the head portion 18 to the main body 16 is not easy. In addition, since the state in which the lock lever 20 is engaged with the stud 17 cannot be visually observed, there is a problem that the reliability of the operation of attaching and detaching the head portion 18 to the main body 16 is also lacking.

  On the other hand, in the fishing rod holding device disclosed in FIG. 5A, the stud 13 is fitted into the socket 11 from above, so that it is relatively easy for the angler to set the fishing rod 15 on the fishing rod holding device. However, since the angler cannot see the engagement state of the lock lever 14, there is a problem that the reliability of the operation of attaching and detaching the head portion 12 to the main body 10 is lacking.

  The present invention has been made based on such a background, and an object thereof is to provide a fishing rod holding device that is easy and reliable for attaching and detaching a fishing rod and gives a sense of security to a fisherman in actual fishing. .

  (1) A fishing rod holding device according to the present invention includes a base that is fixed to a predetermined fixed portion and has a placement portion on which a fishing rod is placed, a head that is attached to a bat portion of the fishing rod, the base, An engagement mechanism that engages the head in a disengageable state. The engagement mechanism includes a socket provided on the base, and a stud and an engagement claw provided on the head. The socket is formed with an engaging recess opened on the upper surface and an engaging groove exposed on the outer peripheral surface. The stud can be inserted into and removed from the engagement recess, and the engagement claw is engaged with the engagement groove in a state where the stud is engaged with the engagement recess and the engagement It is possible to change the posture between the unlocking posture separated from the groove.

  According to this structure, a base is fixed to a ship's edge, for example. On the other hand, the head is fixed to the bat portion of the fishing rod. In actual fishing, the angler operates the fishing rod with the head and places it on the base, and fixes it to the base via the engagement mechanism. Specifically, a stud provided on the head is fitted into a socket provided on the base. At this time, the socket is provided with an engagement recess opening on the upper surface, and the angler inserts the stud into the engagement recess from above while operating the fishing rod. The engaging claw engages with the engaging groove with a predetermined posture change. Thereby, the engagement state of a stud and a socket is locked, and a fishing rod is fixed to a ship's edge. When the angler changes the engaging claw to the unlocking posture, the stud is detached from the socket. That is, the fishing rod is removed from the ship edge.

  (2) It is preferable that an operation lever that is continuous with the engaging claw and extends along the longitudinal direction of the butt portion to change the posture of the engaging claw is provided.

  In this configuration, the angler can release the engagement between the engagement claw and the engagement groove only by operating the operation lever. Moreover, since the operating lever extends along the longitudinal direction of the bat portion of the fishing rod, the operating lever can be easily operated simultaneously with the operation of gripping the fishing rod.

  (3) The outer shape of the socket is a truncated cone, the engaging recess is a straight hole extending downward from the upper surface, and the engaging groove is formed along the circumferential direction of the socket. preferable.

  According to this configuration, the structure of the engagement mechanism is simple. Moreover, since the engagement groove extends in the circumferential direction of the socket, the engagement claw engaged with the engagement groove can move in the circumferential direction of the socket. Accordingly, the fishing rod can be rotated with respect to the base while being attached to the base together with the head. If the fishing rod fixed to the ship's edge is rotatable, the fishing rod can be operated more easily.

  (4) It is preferable that the engagement groove is formed around the socket.

  In this configuration, the fishing rod can be rotated in all directions.

  (5) The peripheral edge of the straight hole is chamfered, and the stud may be composed of a straight bar having a curved lower end.

  In this configuration, when the stud is inserted into the socket, the peripheral portion of the straight hole guides the stud even if the positions of the two do not completely coincide. Therefore, the operation of fixing the head to the base together with the fishing rod becomes easier and more reliable.

  (6) The head includes a ring portion that grips the butt portion and a fixed ring having a fixed shaft portion protruding from the ring portion, a fixing nut that is screwed to the fixed shaft portion and also serves as the stud, A fixing frame is interposed between the fixing ring and the fixing nut, and is fixed between the fixing nut and the fixing shaft when the fixing nut is screwed to the fixing shaft portion. It is preferable that the engaging claw and the operating lever are swingably supported by the fixed frame so that the posture can be changed.

  In this configuration, the fishing rod is easily attached to the head in the following manner. That is, the ring portion is fitted into the bat portion of the fishing rod. At this time, the fixed shaft portion protrudes from the ring portion. The fixing nut is screwed into the fixed shaft portion. At this time, the fixing frame is fixed between the ring portion and the fixing nut. Since the operation lever is supported by the fixed frame, the operation lever is disposed in the vicinity of the fishing rod. Thereby, the angler can operate the operation lever more easily.

  (7) It is preferable that the fixed frame includes a biasing member that elastically biases the engagement claw toward the lock posture side at all times.

  In this configuration, when the angler inserts the stud into the engagement recess from above while operating the fishing rod, the posture of the engagement claw is automatically changed along the outer surface of the socket and engaged with the engagement groove. Therefore, the operation of fixing the fishing rod together with the head to the base becomes even easier.

  According to the present invention, the operation of positioning the fishing rod on the base together with the head is performed by an operation in which the angler inserts the stud from above into the socket with the engaging recess exposed on the upper surface. In other words, this operation does not cover the convex part with the concave part, but inserts the convex part from above into the concave part that can be easily seen, so that the operation of positioning the head with respect to the base is extremely simple. It is. Further, the engagement mechanism reliably locks the stud inserted into the socket. In addition, the locked state of the stud means that the engaging claw provided on the head is engaged with the engaging groove provided on the outer peripheral surface of the socket. Therefore, the angler can easily confirm the locked state. Therefore, when the fishing rod is fixed to the ship's rim, reliable fixation can be easily observed, and the angler can feel secure in actual fishing.

The through hole and the through hole 88 provided in the stabilizing column 83 are aligned, and the pin 89 is inserted through them. Thereby, the operation lever 84 is connected to the stabilization column 83 via the pin 89, and the operation lever 84 can swing around the pin 89.

  As will be described later, as a result of the operation lever 84 oscillating, the engaging claw 37 is displaced in the direction of the arrow 92, so that the engaging claw 37 is in the locked position, and the displacement in the direction of the arrow 93 is engaged. 37 becomes an unlocking posture. Further, since the lever portion 91 extends along the butt portion 49 of the fishing rod 34, the lever portion 91 can be easily operated together with the operation of the fisherman grasping the fishing rod. Therefore, the angler can easily change the posture of the engaging claw 37 by operating the lever portion 91. But this lever part 91 may be abbreviate | omitted.

  In the present embodiment, a torsion coil spring 101 (corresponding to a “biasing member” recited in the claims) is incorporated in the operation lever 84. The torsion coil spring 101 is accommodated in a groove 102 provided in the lever portion 91. Thereby, the engaging claw 37 is elastically urged with respect to the stable column 83 so as to be always in the direction of the arrow 92, that is, in the locked posture. However, this torsion coil spring 101 may also be omitted.

  The engaging claw 37 is a rod-shaped member having a rectangular cross section, and is continuous with the lever portion 91 and extends downward. The lower end portion 94 of the engaging claw 37 is formed in a bowl shape. The effect of the lower end portion 94 being formed in a bowl shape will be described later.

<Stud>

  As shown in FIG. 2, the butt portion 49 of the fishing rod 34 is inserted into the fixing ring 71, and the fixing ring 71 is disposed on the fixing frame 73. As shown in FIG. 5, when the fixed shaft portion 75 of the fixing ring 71 is inserted into the through hole 86 of the sheet plate 81, the fixed shaft portion 75 protrudes toward the back side of the sheet plate 81. The stud 35 is screwed into the fixed shaft portion 75. When the stud 35 is screwed into the fixed shaft portion 75, the stud 35 is tightened in a state where the stud 35 is fitted in the hole of the sheet plate 81. Thereby, the fishing rod 34 is securely attached to the fixing ring 71 and the fixing frame 73.

  The stud 35 is made of metal or resin, and is formed in a straight cylindrical shape in the present embodiment. A screw hole 95 is provided in the stud 35. The screw hole 95 extends downward from the upper surface of the stud 35, and the inner diameter of the screw hole 95 corresponds to the outer diameter of the fixed shaft portion 75. In the present embodiment, the lower surface 96 of the stud 35 is a spherical surface. The effect of the lower surface 96 being spherical will be described later. Further, a flat portion 97 is provided on the peripheral surface of the stud 35. In the present embodiment, the flat portion 97 is provided at four locations equally in the circumferential direction of the stud 35. By providing these flat portions 97, an angler can easily perform the operation of screwing the stud 35 into the fixed shaft portion 75. But this plane part 97 may be abbreviate | omitted.

<Engagement mechanism>

  As described above, the fixing ring 71 that holds the fishing rod 34 is disposed on the fixing frame 73, and the stud 35 is screwed into the fixing ring 71, so that the head 33 is attached to the fishing rod 34. The head 33 to which the fishing rod 34 is attached is engaged with the socket 36 of the base 32 via the engagement mechanism 100.

  FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the engagement mechanism 100.

  The engagement mechanism 100 includes a socket 36 and a stud 35 and an engagement claw 37 provided on the head 33.

  With the head 33 mounted on the fishing rod 34 as described above, the angler holds the fishing rod 34 and inserts the stud 35 into the socket 36 from above. As a result, as shown in FIG. 8, the stud 35 fits into the engagement recess 46 of the socket 36. When the stud 35 enters the engagement recess 46, the engagement claw 37 changes its posture, and when the stud 35 fits into the engagement recess 46, the engagement claw 37 assumes the locked posture. That is, the engaging claw 37 is fitted into the engaging groove 38 of the socket 36. Since the lower end portion 94 of the engagement claw 37 is formed in a bowl shape, the lower end portion 94 abuts on the step 59 formed by the engagement groove 38, and as a result, the head 33 is connected to the engagement claw 37. As long as the posture is changed to the unlocking posture and is not separated from the engaging groove 38, the socket 36 is not detached.

<Guidelines and effects of fishing rod holding device>

  In the fishing rod holding device 30, the base 32 is fixed to, for example, the ship's rim, and the head 33 is fixed to the butt portion 49 of the fishing rod 34 (see FIGS. 1 and 2). As described above, in actual fishing, a fisherman places the fishing rod 34 together with the head 33 on the base. At this time, the head 33 is fixed to the base 32 via the engagement mechanism 100. Specifically, the stud 35 is fitted into the socket 36. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, since the engaging recess 46 of the socket 36 opens upward, the angler inserts the stud 35 into the engaging recess 46 from above while operating the fishing rod 34. When the stud 35 is fitted into the engagement recess 46, the engagement claw 37 engages with the engagement groove 38 of the socket 36 with the above-described change in posture. Thereby, the engagement state of the stud 35 and the socket 36 is locked, and the fishing rod 34 is fixed to the ship's edge. On the other hand, when the fisherman changes the engaging claw 37 to the unlocking posture, the stud 35 is detached from the socket 36, and the fishing rod is removed from the ship edge.

  According to the fishing rod holding device 30, the operation of positioning the fishing rod 34 on the base 32 together with the head 33 is performed by the angler inserting the stud 35 from above into the engaging recess 46 exposed on the upper surface 58 of the socket 36. Is called. That is, in this operation, the stud 35 is inserted from above into the engaging recess 46 that can be easily seen, rather than covering the convex portion with the recess, so that the head can be very easily applied to the base 32. 33 can be positioned. Furthermore, the stud 35 is securely locked to the socket 36 by the engagement mechanism 100. Since the engaging groove 38 is exposed on the outer peripheral surface of the socket 36, the angler can easily engage the engaging claw 37 with the engaging groove 38 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the socket 36. The fisherman can feel secure in actual fishing.

  In this embodiment, since the operation lever 84 and the engagement claw 37 are integrally formed (see FIGS. 2 and 5), the angler can engage with the engagement claw 37 only by operating the operation lever 84. The engagement with the groove 38 can be released. Moreover, since the operating lever 84 extends along the longitudinal direction of the butt portion 49 of the fishing rod 34, the posture of the engaging claw 37 can be easily changed by operating the operating lever 84 simultaneously with the operation of gripping the fishing rod 34. Can do.

  In the present embodiment, the outer shape of the socket 36 is a truncated cone, the engaging recess 46 is a straight hole extending downward, and the engaging groove 38 is formed along the circumferential direction of the socket 36. Yes. That is, the structure of the engagement mechanism 100 is simple. In addition, since the engagement groove 38 extends in the circumferential direction of the socket 36, the engagement claw 37 can move in the circumferential direction of the socket 36. Accordingly, the fishing rod 34 can be rotated with respect to the base 32 in a state where the fishing rod 34 is attached to the base 32 together with the head 33, and the operation of the fishing rod 34 becomes easier for the angler.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, since the engaging groove 38 circulates around the socket 36, there is an advantage that the fishing rod 34 can be rotated in all directions. However, the engagement groove 38 does not need to go around the socket 36 and may be formed in a part of the outer peripheral surface along the circumferential direction.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the peripheral portion of the engaging recess 46 (that is, the upper surface 58 of the cylindrical portion 52 of the socket 36) is chamfered, and the lower surface 96 of the stud 35 is Since it is formed in a curved surface, when the stud 35 is inserted into the socket 36, the upper surface 58 guides the stud 35 even if the positions of the both do not completely coincide. Therefore, the operation of fixing the head 33 together with the fishing rod 34 to the base 32 becomes easier and more reliable.

  In addition, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the engaging claw 38 is always elastically biased toward the locking posture side (the direction of the arrow 92). Therefore, when the angler inserts the stud 35 into the engaging recess 46 from above while operating the fishing rod 34, the engaging claw 37 automatically changes its posture along the peripheral surface 57 of the socket 36 against the elastic force. Then, it fits into the engagement groove 38. As a result, the work of fixing the fishing rod 34 becomes even easier.
