Description

  The present invention relates to a dual bearing type reel for fishing, in which a spool supported between side plates of a reel body is rotated by rotation of a handle rotatably supported on the reel body, and a fishing line is wound around the spool.

  Many fishing double bearing type reels are provided with a cast control mechanism (braking mechanism) for braking the rotation of the spool shaft in order to adjust the rotation of the spool in accordance with the actual fishing conditions. Beginners need a strong braking force on the spool for the purpose of non-trouble at the time of throwing the device, while advanced users suppress the braking force of the spool for the purpose of earning flight distance or the weight of the device Adjust the braking force accordingly. As this cast control mechanism, a mechanism is known in which a friction plate is disposed at the end of the spool shaft and the pressure on the friction plate is adjusted by an adjustment member.

  It is desirable that such an adjustment member of the cast control mechanism can be easily operated in consideration of operability during actual fishing, reel holdability, and the like. Generally, it is disposed on the side plate. In other words, since the adjustment member is a member that is picked and rotated, if it is installed on the side plate on the side opposite to the handle, the holdability of the reel is lowered, and the side plate on the side opposite to the handle is touched when touched, causing erroneous operation It also becomes.

JP 2003-319742 A

  Usually, a double-bearing type reel for fishing is equipped with a drag mechanism for preventing the fishing line from being cut when the fishing line is unwound from the spool after throwing the tackle, and an adjustment member (star drag) of this drag mechanism is also provided. In consideration of operability, it is provided on the side plate on the handle side of the reel body (FIGS. 2 and 3 of Patent Document 1). As shown in the figure, since the star drag and the cast control mechanism are arranged close to each other, the finger that rotates the star drag may come into contact with the adjustment member of the cast control mechanism. In addition, when the device is thrown, the finger or base portion of the hand holding the reel may come into contact with the adjusting member of the cast control member.

  For the reasons described above, if the finger or the base part of the hand accidentally contacts the adjusting member of the cast control mechanism, the setting conditions for the support and rotation state of the spool may be changed, leading to a malfunction. In addition, there is a problem that the operability of the star drag and the holdability of the reel are lowered due to the fear of such a malfunction.

  Furthermore, the adjusting member of the cast control mechanism is a cap-shaped rotating member, and the lower part of the cylindrical side wall is an opening (FIG. 4 of Patent Document 1). There is also a problem that liquid (seawater) or the like easily enters and adheres. As a result, the rotation of the adjusting member is lowered, and problems due to the intrusion of foreign matter or the like are caused.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to the above circumstances, and is a double bearing for fishing provided with an adjustment member that prevents an erroneous operation of the cast control mechanism without impairing holdability and prevents foreign matter or the like from entering inside. To provide a mold reel.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is provided between the side plates of the reel body and is provided rotatably on a spool on which a fishing line is wound, a handle for rotating the spool, and a shaft of the handle. A drag mechanism and an adjustment member formed in the shape of a cap that abuts the handle-side end of the shaft of the spool and adjusts the pressure, and the braking force is applied to the rotation of the spool by the rotation of the adjustment member in the cap shape. And a guard member that covers a radially outer side of the cylindrical side wall of the adjusting member is disposed on the side plate on the handle side of the reel body.

  In the configuration described above, since the adjustment member of the cast control mechanism and the adjustment member (star drag) of the drag mechanism are provided on the side plate on the handle side, the holdability of the reel body can be improved, and the cast control mechanism Since the outer side in the radial direction of the cylindrical side wall of the adjustment member is covered with the guard member, when the star drag is operated, the adjustment member of the cast control mechanism is prevented from being accidentally touched, and no malfunction occurs. In addition, the provision of the guard member makes it difficult for foreign matter, dust, liquid, and the like to enter from the opening end of the adjustment member.

  According to the double-bearing type reel for fishing of the present invention, it is possible to prevent erroneous operation of the cast control mechanism without impairing the holdability. Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to suppress the entry of foreign matter or the like into the adjusting member of the cast control mechanism, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of problems.

The top view which shows one Embodiment of the double bearing type reel for fishing which concerns on this invention. The partial cross-section top view of the double bearing type reel for fishing shown in FIG. The figure which expands and shows the cast control mechanism part.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 show an embodiment of a double bearing type reel 1 for fishing according to the present invention.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a reel body 1A of a fishing reel 1 according to this embodiment includes left and right frames 2a and 2b and left and right covers 3a and 3b attached to the left and right frames 2a and 2b. The left and right frames 2a and 2b are integrated with each other through a plurality of columns as is well known.

  A spool shaft 5 is rotatably supported between the left and right side plates 4A and 4B via bearings 6a and 6b. A spool 5a around which a fishing line is wound is integrally attached to the spool shaft 5. Yes.

  A handle shaft 9 is rotatably supported on the right frame 2b and the right side plate 3b via a bearing 8, and a handle 9a is attached to an end of the handle shaft 9. In this case, when the handle 9a is rotated, the operating force is transmitted to the spool shaft 5 via the driving force transmission mechanism 10, and the spool 5a is rotationally driven.

  The driving force transmission mechanism 10 includes a driving gear 11 that is rotatably mounted on the handle shaft 9 and a pinion gear 13 that is held on the spool shaft 5 so as to be slidable in the axial direction and meshes with the driving gear 11. The rotation operation of the handle 9a is transmitted to the spool 5a. The pinion gear 13 is configured to be held by a support shaft 5c that is coaxially divided with the spool shaft 5, but may be slidably supported on the spool shaft 5 as is well known.

  Also, between the right frame 2b and the right side plate 3b, there is a known clutch mechanism 15 for transferring the driving force of the driving force transmission mechanism 10 and a spool when the fishing line is fed from the spool 5a during fishing. A known drag mechanism 20 for applying a drag force to 5a is accommodated.

  The clutch mechanism 15 includes a clutch plate 16 that engages with the pinion gear 13 and slides the pinion gear 13 in the axial direction, and a clutch operation member 17 disposed between the left and right side plates 4A and 4B on the rear side of the spool 5a. When the clutch operating member 17 is pushed down, the clutch plate 16 is driven to slide the pinion gear 13 in the axial direction to turn the clutch off. Further, by winding the handle 9a in this state, the clutch is turned on via a known automatic return mechanism (not shown).

  The drag mechanism 20 includes a brake plate 21 that frictionally engages the drive gear 11 and an adjustment member (star drag) 22 that applies a pressing force to the brake plate 21. The star drag 22 is provided in the vicinity of the handle 9a, and adjusts the frictional force (drag force) of the drive gear 11 with respect to the handle shaft 9 via the brake plate 21 by rotating. The handle shaft 9 is provided with a reverse rotation prevention mechanism (one-way clutch) 23 to prevent reverse rotation of the handle shaft 9 (handle 9a) in the fishing line feeding direction.

  A level wind mechanism 50 is provided on the front side of the spool 5a. The level wind mechanism 50 includes a fishing line guide 51 through which a fishing line is inserted. When the handle 9a is wound up, the level winding mechanism 50 reciprocates the fishing line guide 51 left and right via a known gear train that meshes with the drive gear 11. The fishing line is uniformly wound in parallel on the rotating spool 5a.

  Further, the fishing double bearing type reel 1 of this embodiment has a cast control mechanism 40 that applies a braking force to the rotation of the spool shaft 5 on the right side plate 4B side (the handle side plate) that is one side of the spool shaft 5. It has. By disposing the cast control mechanism on the side plate on the handle side, the cast control mechanism 40 can be operated without deteriorating the operability during actual fishing, the holdability of the reel, and the like.

  As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 3, the cast control mechanism 40 includes a friction plate 41 that abuts on a handle-side end (end surface) 5 b of the support shaft 5 c that abuts on the end surface of the spool shaft 5, and the friction plate 41. And an adjusting member 43 that rotates integrally with the friction plate. The adjustment member 43 is formed in a bottomed cylindrical cap shape, and is arranged so that the top surface 43b is positioned on the handle side, and the cylindrical side wall 43a extends on the side opposite to the handle (spool side). .

  The adjustment member 43 is screwed and joined to the distal end side of a cylindrical projection 3d formed integrally with the right cover 3b, and the right end portion side of the support shaft 5c is inserted into the cylindrical projection 3d. A bearing 14 is disposed on the inner surface of the cylindrical projection 3d, and supports the pinion gear 13 so as to be rotatable and slidable.

  On the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical protrusion 3d, a concave groove is formed in the circumferential surface on the surface facing the cylindrical side wall 43a of the adjusting member 43, and an O-ring 47 is disposed in this concave groove. . The O-ring 47 prevents foreign matter (dust, etc.) and liquid (seawater, etc.) from entering the inside of the adjustment member 43, the periphery of the support shaft 5c, etc., and the rotation of the adjustment member 43 is reduced. It is possible to prevent the occurrence of problems such as the support shaft 5c.

  When the adjusting member 43 is picked and rotated, the friction plate 41 is moved to the spool side by the threaded connection of the adjusting member 43 and presses the end portion 5b of the support shaft 5c that contacts the friction plate 41. A braking force is applied to the rotation of the spool shaft 5 through the support shaft 5c by the frictional force generated by the pressing.

  A guard member 45 is fixed to the right cover 3b so as to cover the outer side in the radial direction of the lower part (the tip side on the spool 5a side) of the cylindrical side wall 43a of the adjusting member 43 through a gap. The guard member 45 has an L-shaped cross section and has a bottom wall 45a and an annular side wall 45b. The guard member 45 is fixed to the right cover 3b by pressing the bottom wall 45a against the surface of the right cover and press-fitting a fastener 46. Has been. In addition, although the guard member 45 of this embodiment is comprised separately from the right cover 3b, it may be integrally formed with the right cover 3b. Further, in the case of a separate body as in this embodiment, the fixing method for the right cover can be modified as appropriate.

  The side wall 45b of the guard member 45 covers the outer periphery on the distal end side of the cylindrical side wall 43a, thereby preventing the finger or the base of the hand from touching the side wall 43a of the adjusting member 43 and rotating it. To play a role. That is, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, since the adjustment member 43 is in a position close to the star drag 22, a finger that rotates the star drag 22 easily contacts the adjustment member 43 and is erroneously operated. Although it is in the situation, such a misoperation is avoided by the guard member 45. By disposing the cylindrical side wall 43a of the adjustment member 43 in the guard member 45, the adjustment member 43 approaches the right cover 3b side, and is accordingly separated from the star drag 22, thereby further preventing erroneous operation.

  In the present embodiment, the side wall 45b of the guard member 45 is formed at 360 degrees in the circumferential direction, and the form that can exhibit the maximum effect by covering from the tip of the cylindrical side wall 43a to the substantially central portion. However, it is not always necessary to form 360 degrees. For example, the side wall 45b of the guard member 45 may be formed only in a part of the side wall 43a of the operation member 43, such as a range in which a finger or the base of the hand is easily contacted.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the guard member 45 has a distance L1 from the lower end (base end) to the upper end (tip) and a distance L2 from the upper end (tip) to the exposed surface of the top surface 43b of the adjustment member 43. Then, it is preferable that L1 is larger than L2. That is, as described above, the guard member 45 has a role of avoiding unexpected contact with the cylindrical side wall 43a by covering the outer peripheral portion of the cylindrical side wall 43a on the spool 5a side (substantially central portion from the tip). Therefore, if L1 is L2 or less, the range covering the cylindrical side wall 43a is too small, and the advantage of disposing the guard member 45 is reduced. In this embodiment, L1: L2 = 2: 1 is set.

  It is desirable that the top surface 43b of the adjustment member 43 is formed with unevenness 43c that extends continuously over 360 ° at the peripheral edge. As described above, the cylindrical side wall 43a is covered with the guard member 45, and the exposed portion of the adjustment member 43 is reduced, which makes it difficult to pinch the adjustment member 43 and rotate it. For this reason, by continuously forming the unevenness 43c on the peripheral edge of the top surface 43b of the adjustment member 43, it is possible to improve the operability deterioration of the rotation operation. In this embodiment, the unevenness is formed, but the present invention is not limited to the uneven shape as long as the adjustment member 43 can be pinched and easily rotated.

  A concave groove 45 c is formed in the guard member 45 on the surface facing the adjustment member 43 in the circumferential direction, and an O-ring 49 is disposed between the concave groove 45 c and the adjustment member 43. ing. The O-ring 49 can prevent a problem that foreign matter is mixed and stored inside the guard member 45, and in addition to the O-ring 47, an O-ring 49 is additionally provided. The double O-rings 47 and 49 can more reliably prevent foreign matter (dust and the like) and liquid (seawater and the like) from entering the inside of the adjustment member 43 and the periphery of the spool shaft 5.

  As described above, according to the fishing double-bearing type reel 1 described above, the cast control mechanism 40 is disposed on the side plate 3b on the handle side so that the holding property is not impaired, and the guard member 45 is provided. Thus, it is possible to prevent a finger or the like that rotates the star drag 22 disposed in proximity from contacting the operation member 43 of the cast control mechanism 40 by mistake. Further, it is possible to suppress the entry of foreign matter or the like into the adjustment member 43 of the cast control mechanism 40, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of defects.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention has been described, this invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, In the range which does not deviate from the summary, it can implement variously. For example, the shape of the guard member is not limited to the above-mentioned L-shaped cross section, and can be arbitrarily set according to the fixing method or the like. In the above-described embodiment, the concave grooves for installing the O-rings 47 and 49 are formed on the cylindrical protrusion 3d facing the side wall 43a of the adjustment member 43 and the side wall 45b of the guard member 45, respectively. You may form in the side wall 43a of an adjustment member.
